18. I'm convinced that some of them aren't Sanders supporters.

Many of them are, of course, but at least a couple of the posters in those threads are clearly here solely to foster division. They're trying to make Sanders supporters, in general, look like clueless dopes (and doing a bang-up job). They're the same ones who pushed the "the Deep South doesn't count" memes, supported stuff like that ridiculous thread about Stockholm Syndrome, and post the same right-wing nonsense over and over. Now, they're professing complete ignorance about Memorial Day? I don't buy it.

To be clear, I'm only talking about a few of them - the ones that couldn't be any more obvious about it. The sad thing is that some others who we can only assume are "real" Sanders supporters hop right on the bandwagon. Some of them will defend anything, regardless of how ridiculous it is.
