Bernie Sanders Faces Feisty Democratic Challenger

300. Ah, but I did not. I characterized the petty attacks as attacks.

Some amount of literacy might help the comprehension though, remove blinders and see where the actual bigotry is, denying it won't erase it.

If we are going to review his posts, then, by all means source them. Linking to an "I hate anyone that dares to challenge Bernie" group doesn't quite cut it.

You seem to be repeating things and trying very, very hard to create something that simply isn't there. To odd lengths, actually.

I look forward to links to where bigoted slurs that you assert are proffered, from credible sources that are not functioning at the level of grade school clubs. I am thinking that if actual slurs existed and that an actual argument could be made against him that was not all ad hominems, that something coherent might have been presented here.

I pointed out the facts that were ignored here, the bigotry and spittle flecked misogyny of the club kids, who seem deeply unsettled by someone merely pointing out the faults of his Senator. Yes reflexively calling people bigots for pointing out actual bigotry will not dissuade any of us from pointing out where bigotry is coming from, no matter how desperate the defection, or how one insists language must be distorted.

I don't tolerate homophobia or racism either, nor do I tolerate those who cry wolf to deliberately smear someone to advance a political agenda. These people harm the fight against actual racism and homophobia, which are real things and cause real harm.

I won't apologize for having actual standards, nor will I allow those seeking to undermine the fight we progressives have on our hands to shame those of us who can actually read and don't fall for these online scams over and over again. One would think that after all that we've learned about FB pages purporting to support Sen. Sanders and really seeking so division, some would know better.

I guess not everyone really cares much about actual racism or homophobia, since they use them so cavalierly to play political games. Those who really care and have high standards need to call out this BS.

Enjoy the games if that is what amuses, but excuse us from them, we have a whole lot of work in front of us and no time for this silliness, we've got actual work against real racism, real homophobia, and the misogyny that we've seen oozing out.

Have fun, do consider joining us when playtime is over.
