(27,275 posts)but let's not pretend it just happens one way. the posts that were hidden from this particular poster were definitely not hide-worthy. i am a realist, so as a black woman, and a Sanders supporter, it does not surprise me that black HRC supporters do not support Sanders. but i also think it is utter nonsense to keep claiming that Sanders does not "speak to black people." nor do i see a huge difference between social and economic justice: they are just two sides of the same coin. we cannot have social justice without economic justice, nor can we have economic justice without social justice. are there asshole Sanders supporters? YES. are there asshole HRC supporters? YES. what is going to happen here is that when HRC wins the nomination (and i think she will) is what happens every election cycle: this site will support her. in the meantime, i hope people can stop acting like children by targeting and ganging up on people who have an opinion that is different than theirs. and in this case, it seems clear to me that is exactly what happened. again...let's not pretend it doesn't happen the other way also.
