In reply to the discussion: By now I am truly disgusted with the HRC supporters. [View all]synergie
(1,901 posts)vile posts and the misogyny that's been allowed to fester here, the bullying, the stalking, the dishonesty. Don't forget that in the GE, the few BS supporters who are threatening to take their ball and go home were never going to vote Dem anyway, which leave the rest of the Bernie supporters, and BERNIE HIMSELF, along with quite a lot of anti-Trump votes from all sides of the aisle will also be in play.
We have no need to intimidate or bully anyone, no threats, and if anyone wishes to pout and punish us all by voting Trump or not voting or writing in or whatever, you're perfectly welcome to, real Dems, real progressives, real liberals are not subscribing to this nonsense and they like us, are voting blue in the GE, and were always going to. In fact those of us who voted for her in the primaries when were planning to sit out, did so due to the abuse, the hate and the bullying tactics of the more, shall we say "passionate" of the Bernie supporters, the ones the media has been describing as the bros who swarm in groups.
That shout of "get out alreaedy" is one that has been often shouted by the BS supporters demanding that HRC drop out so that Bernie need not be bothered with earning votes and delegates, and it started early.
Your attempts to threaten us, intimidate us, and beat us into submission is kind of pointless, and if you take your ball and go home, do so, just stop haranguing us about it and breathlessly pasting whatever the Daily Caller and Rove has fed you about how there is an indictment coming and how harassing pledged delegates and superdelegates is totally not a violation of the will of the voters, who are overwhelmingly voting for her, and who will be perfectly happy to vote for her, and even those who will vote against Trump.
Your ball is not necessary and we have no interest in pleading with you, or even asking you to vote rationally in the GE.
