All these people* can go screw themselves

[conuly]

because they're determined to screw the rest of us over even more.

* Except those who are genuinely facing structural difficulties in voting.

I couldn't get past the fifth or sixth person.; I think the Bernie Bro who got shirty because his hero did something smart and practical, rather than choosing a ridiculous hill on which to die (and to kill the country while doing so) just turned my stomach sour. They were so insanely self-absorbed, so massively ignorant, and so proud of that ignorance!

I didn't understand that person's reasoning at all. Bernie and Hillary were in the same party, so naturally the losing candidate would support the winning candidate in the general election. Isn't that...normally how it works?

Although Bernie ran for the Democratic nomination, he was for years an independent senator, who voted with the Democrats on most things and caucuses with them, but was not part of the party.

Yep! So, being that he ran for a nomination with the same party as her, I thought of course he would support Hillary once she won the nomination. I confess I was pretty caught up in the fervor of the primaries, so like a lot of Bernie supporters I felt disappointed in his support of Hillary, but in retrospect I realize he was only doing what was practical and reasonable.
