Berners threatening to avenge his primary loss by voting Trump or third party.

14. The privilege

was all of you people voting for a corrupt, center-right and hawkish Democrat when you had the chance to vote for an actual progressive. Trump would be bad, and Clinton would be slightly less bad. Voting for either and pretending that the end result will be anything other than more suffering, and refusing to understand why people are entirely fed up with situation is a sign of privilege. It amazes me that the two parties put up the two most unpopular nominees in polling history, and Democrats like you pretend to not understand why people are done with this corrupt and inequitable system.

For almost a year now, people have been pointing to the decades of stagnating wages, the crumbling infrastructure, the trade policies that have caused de-industrialization and helped with the explosion in inequality, the financial takeover of the economy, people have pointed to her hawkish foreign policy, her center-right economic record and the fact that her largest donors are banks (more Wall Street support than all the other candidates this election cycle in EITHER party combined). People pointed to her horrible polling numbers, the fact that she wasn't liked or trusted and that Sanders polls much better than she does versus all the Republicans (been the case for months). None of you could be bothered with that. THAT is privilege. Don't back Hillary Clinton and lecture others on privilege.
