Meet The Brogressive, Your New Worst Enemy

250. It's a true scenario at least.

It's believable because people have personal encounters that resemble this.

As a Bernie supporter, I don't agree with using Bernie hypocrites as the main example. As I pointed out in another comment, Third Way positions tend to describe Hillary supporters. But ultimately Brogressives are libertarians who forward white male supremacist positions even though they wouldn't admit to be doing that. If they do admit it, they will complain about any backlash as being PC of "feminazi".

I also think that the Black Lives Matter references are widely misused and misleading. I'm the first to agree that whitewashed Seattle is in collective denial about its privilege. However, by targetting Bernie - even if it was all about power-mapping - the BLM movement set up Bernie and his supporters for ongoing false representation (such as the idea they are crawling with Brogressives - most wouldn't touch Bernie's "Social Justice Warriors" with a 10 foot pole). This is a gift to Hillary's campaign team, even if Hillary didn't arrange it and BLM is ostensibly apolitical.

Perhaps the author wrote the whole article around an attempt to burn Bernie. Yet I still think the concept is valuable, because I think all the candidates at Democratic party organizations are trying to figure out how to deal with the invasion of the Brogressives. Local political leaders in Big Tech regions are trying to use the Brogressives, but traditional progressive constituents see what is going on and are starting to call them out. The Brogressive love affair is going to backfire badly.
