      Giving credence to the enormously bad-faith notion that Bernie is personally responsible for how his supporters engage online *will not* insulate him from attacks by opponents who want to weaponize this ridiculous logic. It will just embolden the opponentshttps://twitter.com/danielmarans/status/1099719222836510722 …

      Bernie Sanders supporters were accused of going overboard in attacks on those backing Hilary Clinton in the 2016 Democratic presidential race. Sanders is telling his surrogates to treat his 2020 rivals differently. I got a copy of the email: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/bernie-sanders-email-surrogates-respectfully-engage-bullying_n_5c72188fe4b03cfdaa55e866?ncid=engmodushpmg00000004 …

      Bernie writes: "I want to be clear that I condemn bullying and harassment of any kind and in any space.” If he thinks that is actually going to preempt criticism, he's kidding himself. Frankly, there have been a number of red flags since the campaign launch.

      Maybe it's not to pre-empt criticism. Maybe discouraging bullying and harassment is a reasonable message which everyone should heed?

          Give me a break. You know as well as anyone that "bullying and harassment" are totally subjective concepts that routinely get twisted for cynical, opportunistic reasons. Especially in the context of online political debate, the terms have become completely meaningless.

          Here’s the thing , the marker set forth by many establishment types is that sanders is responsible for anyone who tweets in support for him. The same is never said of any other candidate ever.

          Then maybe the standard should be applied to supporters of all candidates. HRod/DNC camp manufactured the narrative & their zealots in the Never Bernie faction have, for years now, gotten away w/some truly vile content (and they even get backed by MSM & celeb accounts).

          No no. You have to look at everything as though it's a cynical manipulation of the narrative, not genuine communication of values. Even if the guy doing the communicating has a decades long history of communicating his values despite the narrative. Get with the program, Jeet.

          OK. For your part could you please issue a condemnation of all the online abuse from centrists and liberals? As a reader of the tweets of e.g. Michael Tracey and Glenn Greenwald I can testify that they get a steady stream of it all day long.
