Waddya know! Change the names and we AGREE.
I cannot believe this, its like I could have written the same words only replaced the names. It is exactly how I see Sanders fans.
Its like this:
...not all opinions. If you are going to attack my style of critical discussion, maybe do it without fallacies reasoning.

What I object to most is that it's a direct call to CLINTON supporters to quit supporting what we believe in because we can't win anyway and why make SANDERS spend money and move to the left?

And the whole perspective on the CLINTON Campaign is through the narrow lense of how it relates to the SANDERS Campaign. It reflects a sense of entitlement and privilege that bothers me quite a bit.
It bothers me a lot. But the victim mentality of Sanders fans is one entitled hot mess.

Great minds and all.
