Bernie Sanders
In reply to the discussion: What the heck are Bernie Bros?? [View all]nc4bo
(17,651 posts)38. So basically, anyone who uses facts in an debate against a HRC candidancy is a BernieBro?
or engaging in smear tactics.
or being sexist.
or whatever?
I don't understand how HRC or her supporters can broad brush another candidate's supporters like that. Of course, there always is a small number of obnoxious assholes but it certainly is not an entire supporter base.
Heck, the same can be said about Hillary campaign supporters.
Seems like there's some hypocrisy going on with this silly meme.

It is, it means young, male, mostly urban and educated Sanders supporters. It's a pejorative.

They're a myth trying to imply that Sanders supporters are mostly male chauvinist.
