Dear Fellow Bernie Supporters: Stop Embarrassing Us
When Senator Bernie Sanders entered the presidential race with his crazy hair and hardcore hate for Wall Street, income inequality, student loan debt and the military industrial complex, I fell in love. I felt the Bern so much that I immediately spent a bunch of money on Bernie gear and declared he was my guy. I even considered getting a Bernie tattoo, seriously (my editor is shaking his head as he reads that, I guarantee it). I imagine it is the same feeling that many people felt when an unknown senator from Chicago put his hat in for the White House in 2007. Sanders, like Obama, is the underdog and I love me a good underdog story. I am still a HUGE Bernie fan, but theres a downside: some of my fellow Sanders supporters are really pissing me off.
Some of you believe that the only way to show your support for Senator Sanders is to go on social networking sites and shit all over Hillary Clinton. You have decided that she is an evil corporate shill who isnt progressive enough for you. You dont think shes a real liberal because she is a moderate. You have demonized her because she made money speaking to Wall Street. You have called her names because she stayed with her husband after he cheated on her. Apparently sticking with her marriage in good times and bad and taking her commitment seriously, even when Bill didnt, means she isnt a real feminist. All of this nonsense is embarrassing.
Sound familiar? Much more here:
