8. I got the impression

that a few HRC supporters manipulated a few AA group members into thinking that most, if not all, Bernie supporters were racist. So a few upset AA members reacted with anger toward Bernie supporters, and a few more HRC supporters jumped in and fed the flames for all it was worth, shamefully and shamelessly sowing division and pandemonium across several threads. And now some AA members appear to hate most Bernie supporters and the worst HRC supporters still egg them on. I, myself, never observed racist comments from Bernie supporters; I think I saw a few people becoming angry about the BLM disruptions, but no racism.

That's how it looked to me.
