(841 posts)Sanders can't control all of the people who claim his name. Some of these online Bernie supporters are really "out there" but as others have pointed out before on this forum most Sanders supporters voted for Clinton in the general election and there is not much difference between most Clinton and Sanders supporters except for a few issues like trade and perceptions of corruption in the political process. Those are important differences but not as large as some would think given the intensity of arguments on the Internet between some Clinton and Sanders supporters. Thankfully the Internet is not exactly like real life. This is why I try to avoid some of these online groups. They often represent the views of a small number of extreme people not the majority.
