i applaud your activism and agree wholeheartedly with everything you've said.

I think there are a lot of people supporting Bernie who have sleep walked through the last few decades and are now scared shitless because what they once thought was their economic floor has become their ceiling or worse. They may not fully understand the problems we face but know things have changed. Some people need to have their world views challenged and torn down before they see their commonality with othes - I can't speak for any BLM protesters that have targeted Bernie, but for me this is why I am not letting agressive tactics put me on the defensive.
