Bernie bashing the democratic party and its members is counterproductive.

I really do believe that. Calling dems feeble. Calling dems establishment like they aren't for the people. And many other insults he hurls over his 40 year stint is not helpful.

Stating that is not bernie bashing or hate.

I would hope one would be able to make a post that supports dems by calling out those who insult and attack them.

It is so weird to see all these threads claiming bernie bashing when in actuality it is democrats defending democrats on a democratic board.

in quotes are used insulting our Democratic Party.. they can't address that so they fall back on ..Why oh Why all the BS bashing?

If it's a way to get us to stop calling him out on his putting out bad information.. they're in for a let down.

For Bernie. Somehow the posts only reflect a tiny minority of DUers.

words verbatim insulting The Democratic Party.

And, when he's putting out bad information.. it's divisive and counter-productive.

focusing on his holy presence alone is "bernie bashing". Somehow those posts do only reflect a tiny minority of DUers, often ones with low post counts, or who have been dormant for years, or who have just returned to sow discord.
