    True story, i swear: just got done canvassing a nice 70-year-old lady. Stuck between Biden and Bernie. She wants Bernie for healthcare and agrees w/ him on policy, but Hillary had a fundraiser here in 2016 where a bunch of angry bros came to shout at her, & she hates that./1

        I made the case for Warren on percentage counts but she wasn't buying. So I told her to vote for Bernie because he can beat Trump as well as Biden, and she should vote her heart on the issues. But she doesn't want to be seen as one of "the bros" as she said. It matters!!!!! /2

        She still remembers the angry shouty protest dudes from four years ago. Even though she loves Bernie on policy. Culture matters. It really really does. And it's not just twitter.

        And here come the bros insisting this must be made up. Obviously I'm not going to betray this person's privacy, but it's true. I don't make stuff like this up. And no, she's not super privileged. She lives in a pretty small apartment alongside student housing.

        I got attacked by an angry HRC supporter at caucus in '16. It sucked.

        As a woman, I have been made to question my own validity as a "feminist" if I don't instinctively vote for a woman. The attacks come from all sides. I would rather vote on the issues than from an identity politics angle.

        What’s her direct number? I’ll call her to shout at her some more. That’ll do the trick.

        Yes, you’re exactly correct. That is how association works.

        I spent 8 minutes with her which is way way longer than I ought (canvassing is a numbers game.) I think I got her to lean Bernie but I don't know. She's well versed on policy and her family is desperate for healthcare. But electability and culture are huge.
