To steal an insightful point from @zeynep, Bernie Sanders has a movement, while everyone else has supporters. The vehemence and at times toxicity of interactions online is due to people believing in The Cause, not because Sanders encourages attacks, or attracts the worst people
I agree! But they have an interesting symbiosis with the Bernie people, and I think they will be easily absorbed

Online I’m seeing a lot of vitriol from some of them toward Bernie people. I don’t think it’ll be as much as people expect, but hopefully most of his less intense supporters. The Yang people I’ve canvassed (albeit few) wouldn’t say they’d pick Bernie if he dropped out.
