In reply to the discussion: Is it just me, or are the bernie folks really nasty today. [View all]GvilleDem
(41 posts)18. I think its the DC ballots
I woke up to some very nasty posts. Threats to leave the corrupt DNC over the stupid ballots in DC. I'm pretty sure they believe Bernie really isn't going to be on the ballot, and all their unconfirmed suspicions are now true. I know one bernie fan, she unfriended 3 people for putting down her meme declaring "BE WARNED DNC: We now have enough support to make our own party."
In the conversation I could see its becoming an 'Us or the Other' kind of deal. Kind of like the republicans, they aren't seeking truth, they are seeking things which confirm what they believe is the truth. Having a single actual legit thing to be upset about. Its like throwing gasoline onto a bonfire.
