It was all just pretending, really. Make-believe. Bogus. Smokescreen stuff.

A lot of those who most strongly carry the BoB fight this far into the year seem to be socialists and communists who continue fetishizing Russia years after the U.S.S.R. died. They don't accept, or don't care, that Putin is a dictator at the oposite end of the spectrum. He supports Nazis, attacks equal rights for LGBTQ people, and they decided domestic abuse of women isn't so bad for fucks sake. That's as un-socialist and un-progressive as you can get. Their real hero is Russian tool Jill Stein.

A lot of them threw Bernie under the bus as soon as it was clear he wouldn't take his primary fight through November, lol.

I voted for Bernie in the primary, so I guess you could call me
a Sanders person. I don't know why you would say this.

Or do you mean all the people who donated to his presidential campaign? Or the ones who joined "Our Revolution"? Or the ones who agreed with Bernie that we all needed to unite behind the Democratic candidate for President, Hilary Clinton, who he endorsed and campaigned for? We all supported Bernie both then and now, but whoa this is going to have to make me rethink all of it! You mean Bernie thinks the Russians interfered in the U.S. presidential election? My goodness, how could I possibly continue to admire him after he takes a controversial stance like that one???

The majority of Sanders supporters voted for Clinton. This is both inaccurate and divisive.
