    Yeah how dare Hillary and the DNC respect that more people voted for her instead of applying EC logic to make Bernie win despite him losing by a wider margin than Trump lost the popular vote, and how dare the moderates still be more popular than Bernie to the point that all it took was there being only one in the primary field for Bernie’s chances to be “sabotaged”.

    Harry Potter and the magical thinking of Bernie bros who still can’t get over other people not voting the same way they wanted them to while also not voting themselves.

    Bernie deserved better than fucking all of you.

      Not going to argue with you, but super deligates are why Hillary was the candidate and super deligates are bullshit and the definition of everyone is = but some are more = than others.

        Millions more people voted for Hillary Clinton.

        If it wasn’t for the undemocratic caucuses, Bernie would have lost earlier in his primary run.

        I’m not a big fan of centrist democrats but Lemmy (and most of internet) is not representative of the broader electorate.

        That why the delegate counts actually tilt the scales in Bernie’s favor?

        In any case, any argument you could make about the superdelegates basically amounts to “look what you made me do!” for not going to vote against this supposed she devil everyone had a violent hatred for. Y’all didn’t vote. You just didn’t. I’m saying this as a guy who did vote for Bernie, there was no fix, you all just abandoned Bernie at the one place it matters and have been trying to shift blame for your own slackoff asses since.

        Bernie deserved better than every last fucking one of you!
