Sanders is still a fair distance off from being the Democratic candidate. It is absolutely right and good to lay into him at this point. However, once he becomes the candidate - or it's extremely likely that he will be - we should learn the lesson of 2016 and *shut the hell up*

Sanders was *maybe* my sixth-choice candidate when this started, and is a grudging second now. If, like me, you can't stand much of his supporters' attitudes and found them intolerable in 2016, *now is the chance to seize the moral high ground of smugness*.

Did you find the way some of his supporters kept undermining Clinton even though so much was at stake incredibly childish and frustrating? Don't do that yourself!

Did you find the sight of people booing the candidate at the convention the epitome of self-destructive politics? Don't do that! Don't support equally futile gestures!
