Newest corporate media salvo against Sanders: "violent" Bernie Bruthas
Note: the name in the title is meant to be a sarcastic and satirical response to corporate media crap like this.
Reality: A non-denominational and nonpartisan group of student and minority activists spontaneously organizes a protest against a Trump rally because Trump and his supporters are hateful, xenophobic bigots
Corporate Media Spin: Dangerously radical and frighteningly black and brown Sanders' supporters foment ugly violence, shutting down Trump's "right to free speech"
LOL. So first we have the myth of the annoying Berniebros whose racism and sexism supposedly forces minorities and women who would otherwise be sympathetic to Sanders' ideas and issues into Hillary Clinton's arms.
Then we have the myth of the Social Justice Warriors who supposedly hate Sanders and his supporters because of their "racist" focus on economic justice for everyone, because everyone knows that that those most concerned with social justice have an undying love for the top 0.1% and don't want anything to do with economic justice.
Then we have the myth of PoC rejecting Sanders en masse because he and his supporters are all white people with no conception of their own white privilege.
And when it finally becomes clear that identity politics can only go so far in dividing up the 99%, the tried and true dog whistles finally come out. Suddenly, those same scary black and brown social justice warriors (you know, the ones that we swore for the last 10 months hated Sanders and all of his white supporters) ARE hardcore, radical, violent, scary Sanders' supporters!
See that guy on the right! He's the ringleader whose dangerous rhetoric has just caused all those scary, violent black and brown people to revolt against their kindly white Trump loving betters! Sanders' angry army of superpredators is now on the loose! We must bring them to heel before they enslave the white race!
