I'm seeing a fair number of #bernieorbust tags on social media (namely twitter) [View all]

I thought we were past that now? That sort of stuff really seems like #MAGAlite support chant. This, of course, applies across the board to any My Candidate of Bust movements, but the bernie one seems to actually have some legs. From what I can tell, most people here don't follow that mindset. Any Bernie folks run into many of these bernie or bust types? Any chance of them not making such mistakes if Bernie doesn't get it? I know if I saw someone saying "Biden or Bust", then I'd be rather annoyed and push them to reconsider that mindset.

I am also curious how many of these are real people and how many are not. Need to start digging in to see if they give off any "bot/cyborg smells", because it really does seem counterproductive.

You can find similar results on facebook too.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Yes. Seen similar here. But the closer we get to actually removing trump, that may change. oldsoftie Apr 2019 #2

I haven't seen it as much here. At least not that level stubbornness. Sapient Donkey Apr 2019 #8

If they derail us again, they deserve what they get. We don't, but they do. LongtimeAZDem Apr 2019 #3

Maybe they are bots etc.....adding in the mix. nt UniteFightBack Apr 2019 #15

Would they want something that reduces their assets? LongtimeAZDem Apr 2019 #11

The revolutionary, transformative new bra from Bernie Sanders. betsuni Apr 2019 #16

Most are. Twitter is a cesspool at figuring out what's real and what's not. I see Nanjeanne Apr 2019 #6

It doesn't rile me up. I find it interesting to observe these sorts of things Sapient Donkey Apr 2019 #10

I don't see this election being about Bernie but it will be #progressiveorbust for many. nt yaesu Apr 2019 #12

I can see that as being a another way of looking at it Sapient Donkey Apr 2019 #17

If they say Bernie of Bust then I'll have to write them off just as you would a deplorable. I think UniteFightBack Apr 2019 #13
