(14,255 posts)Besides the vitriol, there is the anger that no matter how many times it is explained to Bernie's supporters that he cannot win, we still support Bernie. I have seen that expressed here about other candidates, but their fury at not being obeyed is remarkable. Remarkably unhinged. There is some real ugly there. And yeah, they hate Bernie's supporters, and they hate Bernie.
Funny thing, I read somewhere here at DU, the other day, that a real leader would be able to keep his supporters from twittering or whatever. So Bernie needed to tell his supporters to stop. At the same time, no matter what an HRC supporter or staff member or PAC does or says, we are told that Hillary had no control over it, we need to let it go.
What a beautiful example of cognitive dissonance. Or maybe just not that smart.
Oh well. At least they have their own little litter-box to play in. Needs scooping out big time. Ugh. The only other thing is - looking at the names, I am not surprised in the least. And the authoritarian streak in some is kind of entertaining, in a way. Looks like Hell has no fury like an authoritarian personality who is disobeyed. Like Freeperville with a better vocabulary and better grammar. But the same foaming anger and ugliness.
