1. When you have nothing else, mock Democrats.

Isn't that just special.

[vkkv]

3. Yeah, yeah, and we both haven't read a SINGLE insulting thing about Bernie

here at D.U. or in the "H->" Group...

Keep dreaming brother!

[leftofcool]

5. First, I am not your brother

Secondly, insulting Democrats does nothing to help your candidate. In fact, it makes him look more like a loser than a winner.

[vkkv]

7. Not only do you have a right to not be my "brother" in political dialog

games, but you also have a right to be WRONG.


"Left Of Cool"... really?

[sufrommich]

2. This says so much,probably not what you

think it does.

[Attorney in Texas]

4. lol

[MADem]

6. Sanders supporters, weigh in, please!

Do most of you think this is a thread that shows your candidate in a good light?

A simple Yes or No will do.

Thanks in advance!

[MrChuck]

9. Sanders supporter here

I don't think this reflects on the Senator at all. It's on DU.
One of the things about DU is the "U", underground, or so it was.
There has been a ton of vitriol between the Dem factions on here and, frankly, it's crummy.

I think Clinton is a tired, poor example of establishment politics and I also think that her supporters are blind if they can't understand that perspective. It doesn't mean I won't vote for her in the general but that's what a primary is for.

I want things to go in the direction that Sanders is promoting. That should be simple enough for anyone to understand.
Supporting Clinton seems like fear to me, a little bit, but that's an opinion and I don't have any credible facts or evidence to back it up. Like, if you don't support the recognizable establishment candidate then we'll just lose for some reason.
It's a primary for crying out loud. Have fun.

[MADem]

14. That "U" had to do with Al Gore getting screwed, and the Supreme Court getting all partisan and

favoring the GOP.

It wasn't a "revolutionary" use of the word back in 2001--it was an understanding that we'd been stripped of any franchise, that we'd been bigfooted out of our rightful place in the public square.

If you go back to Old DU, and read what used to be called "the rules," the culture of this place was very easily understood. That culture has been rapidly diluted--this kind of thing would never have been permitted or even tolerated.

Do you think this kind of posting by a Sanders supporter reflects well on your candidate? Can you understand why adults might view this kind of thing with disgust?

[vkkv]

22. "disgust"?? Really?

Me thinks some people take themselves waaaay too seriously.

Are you sure that you aren't one of those intolerant Trump supporters?

If Bernie and Trump get their party's nominations, will you be voting for Trump?

Trump said it first: "That's disgusting!"

Thank you for your comment.

[MADem]

28. I suggest you retract your unfounded and uncivil accusation.

You may have "numbers" on this board now, but that won't last forever.

Calling me a Trump supporter IS rude, disruptive, hurtful and makes your goals here come into question.

Keep it up. What goes around.

[2pooped2pop]

30. I suppose when people keep saying the adults, meaning Hillary supporters

leaving Bernie supporters to be the child, I guess, well it doesn't play that well, I guess. It is a common tactic for the Hillary supporters to use.

[MADem]

36. Why do you keep popping into my conversations with other people?

Everywhere I look, there you are, and to make matters more interesting, you keep twisting my comments. It seems like you are doing this with purpose; deliberately.

Hmmm.

[2pooped2pop]

37. its an open discussion

Not your discussion. I keep noticing how you talk down to other people. I guess that bothers me and seems to be a pattern among some Hillary supporters.

[UglyGreed]

47. Yep

[vkkv]

32. Can you read? I was ASKING - I was not calling you a Trump supporter.

Sheeesh ! !

Please calm down, I know you're worried about HRC's numbers.. it will all work out, 'k?

Thanks for your comments.

45. MADem, please put me on your IGNORE list so that you're less likely to keep STALKING me n/t

[MADem]

46. No. You're welcome to so do if you'd like.

I'm not the one doing the (your term) STALKING here.

I have never sought you out to speak to you, but you can't say the same about me.

[Attorney in Texas]

11. You get that this thread does not show Sanders in any light, favorable or unfavorable, right?

This is a thread where an anonymous person in an online discussion is making a somewhat funny joke about the follow-the-heard mentality of some Clinton supporter (I presume the OP infers this mentality from the fact that Clinton's campaign and supporters seem more fixed on arguing that Democrats should support her because she has already locked up the establishment support rather than focusing on the better reasoned argument about whether Clinton supports policies that more closely reflect their values as compared to Sanders' platform).

If you are choosing to support a candidate because an anonymous poster hurt your feelings by posting a clip from a funny movie, you may be helping to reinforce the OP's impression of Clinton supporters.

[MADem]

13. You get that the thread starter IS a Sanders supporter....RIGHT?

Please own your crowd, rather than avoid the question.

[Attorney in Texas]

15. The OP is a Sanders supporter. The OP is not Sen. Sanders. Judging Sanders based on the anonymous

on-line comments of Sanders' supporters is irrational. If you are so easily swayed, then there is nothing to stop me from creating an on-line account for no purpose other than to post offensive things as a Clinton supporter with the goal of driving you away from Clinton. I presume you are too smart to fall for that, but feel free to correct me if I'm wrong in that assumption.

[MADem]

16. Right.

I was born at night--not last night.

This has nothing to do with being "swayed." I'm asking about perception, and you're using a lot of words to avoid a simple yes or no response.


How unsurprising that this kind of childish and snarky insult is your go-to, too:

I presume you are too smart to fall for that, but feel free to correct me if I'm wrong in that assumption.

[vkkv]

18. Cha Cha Cha!

[MADem]

19. What does that even mean?

How old are you? Between the pointless video and comments, you're really acquitting yourself well.

[vkkv]

20. Do Hillary supporters REALLY have no sense of humor.. at all?

THAT, is scary.

Thank you for the comment!

[vkkv]

23. Life is a dance of sorts for some, many others would

rather play in the muck that they've created.

[MADem]

24. This is your idea of "playing in the muck (you've) created," then.

smh.

[vkkv]

27. "smh".. ? Sanders "Mugs" Hillary? ( as in a landslide)

Sanders' My Hero?
Sanders Must Help ?
Sanders May Heal?
Sanders Missing Hair?
Sanders Melts Hearts?

[Attorney in Texas]

21. My perception is that the Life of Brian is a funny movie and this clip makes a funny point about the

attitude of many Clinton supporters on DU.

However, I do find many of the posts of Clinton supporters at DU to reflect poorly on the poster him- or herself, but this does not contribute to my preference of Sanders and O'Malley over Clinton or my preference of Clinton over the Republican field of candidates.

[MADem]

29. Because mocking fellow Democrats is a smooth move, according to you.

smh.

[2pooped2pop]

31. see there again

Bernie supporters are childish. Name calling all the time is ok, as long as it is going your way.

[MADem]

35. Three things.

I wasn't talking to you. You sealioned your way into the conversation -- why? To goad/bait?

I didn't say what you said I said.

Your conclusion is faulty.

[2pooped2pop]

38. sealioned?

Now that is funny.

[vkkv]

41. Yes, a sea lion... because... um... " I don't HAVE any pics of sea otters...

..which poke their heads up out of the water. .. but so do sea lions.. sort of.. It's all SO confusing.."

- Crazy Mad dem.

[2pooped2pop]

33. you also try to demand that people do what you want.

you a teacher? Nope, teachers are breaking for Bernie. Seems odd though that you try to put yourself higher than the Sanders supporters, calling yourself adults, etc and couple that with demanding all do what you say. It's kind of odd to me. But oh well, do as you please but please watch that holier than thou attitude towards others please.

[MADem]

34. Don't blame your perspectives on me.

I can't "make" anyone think or do anything. I can state my opinion, and I do. There's "Ignore" if my singular views trouble you. I won't mind. I like everyone to be happy.

And that "put yourself higher" comment is just weird. Also not true.

I think you might want to check your own self. If you aren't feeling right, look somewhere else rather than try to put it on me. I don't even know you.

[Hekate]

43. This thread

Is a complete crapfest, isn't it? Their mommas must be so proud. smh

[LexVegas]

8. You represent Sanders well. nt

[leftofcool]

17. Doesn't he/she though.

[vkkv]

10. Thank you for ALL of your comments and views!

Keep them coming!

[kath]

12. heh.

good video clip!

[99Forever]

25. Perfect.

[baldguy]

44. Riiiight - **CLINTON'S** supporters are rigid, dogmatic & hive-minded.
