And it's 100% clear the media and political system doesn't like it. Take note of all the news sources trying to paint Sanders supports as 'radicals' or 'trolls' or 'bigots' or whatever other negative term can they think of. The whole 'berniebros' meme is almost eerily similar to the GamerGate situation.
- amagumori 11y agoThe way the hillary campaign has cynically co-opted the social justice movement is disgusting, but also reveals a lot of endemic problems with our 2016 sj movement. I wish i wasn't at work right now so i could go in depth on these issues in this comment. Suffice it to say the "berniebro" phenomenon is a fabrication.
- CM30 11y agoYeah, I knew the berniebro thing is a fabrication. It's a deplorable, cynical attempt to try and attack a successful campaign by portraying anyone who supports him as a hateful bigot.
