His campaign has embraced Linda Sarsour, who is a Farrakhan supporter. She should be treated like nuclear waste.

On the one hand, yes, she's terrible. On the other hand, the argument here is that because Linda supports Farrakhan, and Bernie's campaign supports Sarsour, Bernie is therefore anti-jewish... even though they are completely at odds on e.g. Israel and Zionism.

Think about the form this argument takes. This is a literal right-wing SJW argument. Several degrees of guilt-by-association used as a cynical way to pretend that someone believes the opposite of what they actually believe.

I don't think Bernie is an anti-semite. I think he's guilty of allying, excusing and applauding evil people, something he's done for decades. Seth spoke with hyperbole, but an acceptable level of hyperbole.

That's pretty fair. Still though, does Bernie really associate more with evil people than the average politician? It seems to me the opposite: He seems much more decent than most, which makes the exceptions stand out more.

He summed up Castro's human rights vilations and murders as "not perfect"

Oh, there he goes again. King is a race baiter and a grifter, according to his own movement. He also applauded the guy who tried to blow up an ICE detention place over the summer.pic.twitter.com/oFNeQXqTgb

I don’t like rapid fire claims with no context. Are you accusing him of agreeing with King’s views, or of being ignorant of them? Did he applaud the act of blowing the place up, or the same person for something unrelated? Let’s focus on one thing at a time.

I am giving a quick account of Shaun King in this limited space forum. The only person Sanders has distanced himself from, to my knowledge, is Cenk.

Yeah, twitter isn't an ideal format for this. I agree that distancing himself from Cenk was an appalling act of cowardice. And I do wish he'd distance himself from more awful people. But it 100% seems to me that Bernie simply doesn't know or care about the culture war.

Bernie is a traditional leftie who is purely focused on the working class, and I find that super refreshing. I feel like a lot of people are portraying his lack of caring about culture war issues as him implicitly choosing the other side, and I don’t think that’s fair at all.

I take issue with his penchant for duct-tape solutions, which rarely address fundamental problems. But most of the criticism instead revolves around calling him sexist or anti-semitic because of his naivety. I feel like I’m morally obligated to push back against that. /end

You're doing the right thing. I've also defended him this week against charges of sexism. I still think its shameful how he abuses words to hide his communist past and fails to apoligize for it.
