2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: The Root: Pipe Down, Bernie Sanders [View all]KPN
(16,086 posts)Bernie in this entire Postmortem -- they are all about feelings; woulda, shoulda, coulda; he's not a real Democrat, and we -- the Democratic Party -- are the victims. I don't buy that. Its all very small minded stuff frankly. So how else am I to perceive these arguments except that they flow from a "victim" mentality.
Here's the point: if Elizabeth Warren said the very same words that Bernie is saying (by the way, she says the same things in her own words), nobody here would be screaming SHUT UP, stop attacking the Democratic Party.
I'm just tired of listening to a bunch of righteous people who seem to think they have all the answers and its only their view that matters, especially when that view strikes me as not only wrong but petty and irrational. I'm not going to sit on the sideline and ignore that kind of behavior or thinking.
