(52,999 posts)You chose to focus on her. That says a great deal about your priorities. You demand unity with an extremely rich person who used her wealth and fame to promote the election of Donald Trump. Clearly the unity you are advocating for has nothing to do with the Democratic Party or getting Democrats elected. That's particularly evident by the fact you chose to insist on unity around Sarandon and not Democrats, not Feinstein or any of the other Democrats who are regularly criticized on this site. Of course that's legitimate, while criticizing Bernie isn't, because you like Bernie, and what matters is you.
I am trying not to post about Bernie, but my opinion has been solidified by his statements and actions since last November. That won't change. You may succeed in policing what people are allowed to post on this site but not their thoughts or votes. That so many of his supporters are singularly focused on him and ensuring he never be subject to question or criticism only serves to convince me that my views are correct.
Of course, you could just select trash thread, but then we know this has nothing to do with what you see and everything to do with what people are allowed to say and think. And that control is what you pretend is unity.
