Please stop perpetuating this generalization. It's part of the problem.

Sanders has millions of supporters throughout the country from every demographic group. Some small portion of them are jerks. Which is exactly like every other candidate. Read Kos for a day: you will see stupid comments by supporters of every candidate.

Demonizing Sanders supporters is exactly as lazy, inane, and counterproductive as demonizing Warren supporters.

Dude look around. You are the exception not the rule.

You ever notice everyone seems to see it but you, trix and Priceless?

Bernie lost me today. Instead of doubling down on his core policies and ideas, he pointed out that there's this great conspiracy out to get him.

Had you done a job of explaining why your version of the United States is better than Joe's, that would better inform me why I should choose him. Instead, he attacks more people as if they are out to get him and is unique revolution. As if it's even that unique.

Sorry, Bernie- you are starting to sound like dumpy. I can deal with the ACA eventually turning into universal healthcare instead of forcing it all at once.

I said brats in the back seat. I understand the usual selfishness of message boarding -- I indulge in it frequently myself. But it's pretty raw to read "Sanders supporters are this..." 165 times a day by people who are just saying "yay my team, yay meeeee!!!"

The mission is unity. So f-cking be friends. See? Friends!

And when it is fellow Bernie supporters saying they see it?
 
Today on social media, I mentioned that young people didn't show up for Bernie. I was told those numbers were fake.

I also saw a lot of blaming old people for voting. Old people vote.

Along with #WarrenDropout earlier which was not a fun read.

Good or bad, small or large group doesn't matter. They have to put an end to the behavior for the good of the Party and the Movement.

I get that lines were an issue but that’s not the sole reason for low turnout from young voters.

So blame everyone else instead of trying to convince people you are right. That's not who I want to represent me.

BTW, I'm a HUGE fan of Millenials- I don't really get the bad wrap they all get- other than a generation trying to find reasons to think they are better than others. There are as many lazy and needy for every single generation as any other generation. And all of the Millenials I observe at work do it really hard- they are creative and want a better future. Our future is bright, as I see it.

Young people didn't turn out for Bernie. I pointed that out, and I was attacked by a Bro, calling it fake numbers and blaming it all on voter suppression.

Another meme I saw said "**** it, i got mine generation strikes again" and indicated 71% of those polled voted for Biden. Yes, how dare old people vote.

Do you actually know these people, or were they bot-ish responses? Every time I see that stupid farking rose symbol in the Twitter name of some hyper-emotional Bernout rattling their sabers, I immediately suspect it's a troll account. Same for right-wing accounts with the three yellow stars.

This was Facebook. Two of my best friends were squealing "rigged" last night. A younger trans person in their 20s, one that I've been helping, called my numbers fake. Another trans person, also in their 20s, posted the "**** it, I got mine" meme last night.
