Replying to @JordanChariton @BernieSanders
OK, it's just odd that so many people immediately launched into Bernie fanboy mode to cheer a false version of events related to Senate procedural votes. Maybe the online Bernie echo chamber is not super healthy or rational. Maybe his failed campaign should prompt some reflection

Calling people that are relieved and grateful that they will get full unemployment benefits (and more generous amount) thanks to
@BernieSanders threatening to block 4 Social Darwinists in GOP Bernie fanboys” is just intellectually lazy. Plenty to criticize Bernie on-this isn’t it8 replies 3 retweets 77 likes -
And you must not watch
@StatusCoup—I have been pointing out all the reasons@BernieSanders and progressives are losing for 2-3 weeks—much of which is on him (more which is not). I have no illusions that Bernie has made major mistakes in this campaign3 replies 0 retweets 35 likes -

I honestly just have a hard time taking seriously journalistic critiques from you—you didn’t cover Tulsi so much as you advocated for her across the country. Nothing wrong with being openly for a candidate...but I never saw these open critiques of her from you

Bernie had a massive nationwide organizing network, nearly unlimited funds, a huge pro-Bernie online media echo chamber, universal name recognition, and so forth. Tulsi had none of those things, yet took courageous positions (i.e., impeachment which you denounced her for)

So yeah, I did not emphasize my critiques of Tulsi (although I have mentioned them publicly at various times) because she was constantly viciously maligned across the political spectrum, including from Bernie supporters. If you regard covering her accurately as "advocating" ...OK

With all due respect, the magnitude and volume of media scorn against
@BernieSanders dwarfs@TulsiGabbard (and I do think she was treated terribly). But turning off your fact-based criticisms bc she is getting too much elsewhere is a disservice to the audience in my opinion.3 replies 0 retweets 32 likes -

I have lost audience by criticizing Bernie...but so be it. You grow more in long term by being consistent.

I ascribe no ill motives—but seeing u & others twist yourself into pretzels over her Biden endorsement was surprising. It goes against everything she stands for. I get endorsing him later on bc she said she would...but at this point in time with no overtures/concessions from him
