The Privilege of Never Having to Say You'll Concede

4. I used to like Bernie

and I was happy he got in the race. I am so over him and his "brilliance." If Hillary did this in '08 the media would be all over this as her feeling that she is "entitled" to win. She would have been rightfully lambasted by Democrats and the media all day, every single day. Instead they frame Bernie's refusal to act like a grown up as some sort of a noble cause and Clinton is out of order for not cow-towing to him. Yes the female winner is expected to adopt the male loser's platform. Even though the country soundly rejected the male loser, they also need to bow to him and his platform.

We have our first viable female for President and Bernie feels he is entitled to tell her what she should do. She should sit down, shut up and do as he says. He treats her like a child, when in fact he is the one acting like a spoiled fucking brat having a temper tantrum because he only got 1 scoop of ice cream when he wanted 2 scoops.

You know what I did when my kids acted that way? Throw their ice cream in the trash and put them in their room. They would stay there until they stopped whining and be grateful for what they have. Apparently when Bernie was growing up, no one taught him that lesson in life. He does not play well with others.

His privilege is that as a full grown man, he is allowed to get away with this, in fear of hurting his feelings. He has shown his true colors.
