And criticism of Bernie at the levels and frequency it happens here at DU, including condemning Bernie whenever there is even the slightest possible nexus between him and just about anybody or anything (which is absolutely what happens here) is the very definition of hate. It is entirely lacking in any real world basis, i.e., it's based entirely on bias and a bias-based grudge. GET OVER IT.
