(2,322 posts)...are Bernie supporters losing their cool the fault of Hilary supporters rather than their own fault?
I see post after post from Bernie supporters that read "Hilary is awful!" --and you know that's going to draw Hilary supporters in to defend her, right? So how is it that the Hilary people, responding to such are blamed for "luring in" Bernie supporters to a fight?
It's all well and good to accuse Hilary supporters of underhandedness. That lets Bernie supporters off the hook for their bad behavior.. IBut 've seen too much baiting of Hilary supporters in Bernie threads to take this at face value; I've seen a lot of Hilary supporters argue rationally and factually and even politely and be insulted--called names, pissed on.
I'm sorry, but you don't get to wail about the underhandedness of Hilary supporters--or even accuse them of such, as the OP of this thread did, when many such supporters haven't done any such thing. When many have been attacked simply for being Hilary supporters.
You can't blame all issues or problems caused by Bernie supporters on Hilary and Hilary supporters, much as you'd like to (for example: Hilary set BLM on Bernie!). If you do, then you've learned nothing and changed nothing about how you are going to be percieved by undecided voters, or Hilary voters who might otherwise change their mind about Bernie.
