(14,164 posts)I reviewed the 3 post links that Secular Motion put up, and I do not get your interpretation at all. I did not see someone saying anyone that criticizes Bernie is a corporatist. Caring about women's rights, which Bernie and his supporters do passionately, many of which are women themselves is a given. Bernie placed more priority on white male voters? WTF? In what speech or policy do your take this gem from? Russian trolls who were hard at work posting inflammatory memes on Sanders support sites? Because if you looked, Bernie's platform at the time was in full support of women's rights to choose, and other issues like equal pay. If you want to believe a Russian troll speaks for Bernie supporters that voted for Hillary then yes, you are willingly holding a baseless unhealthy grudge about nothing. Worse you are helping Putin create a division in here.
The concerns of the poorest, most vulnerable Americans are a top priority for those with more progressive values. Calling someone that cares about these issues "corporatist" is some form of backhanded alt insult I haven't seen yet.
