      One of the turnoffs from the Bernie "style" of campaigning for me was this very reductive appeal to populism Believing that because my politics are the correct politics they must be the politics the real majority of Americans hold, and any appearance otherwise is false

      The people who wanted Bernie, and who had boosted him neck and neck in the polls with Biden, wanted Bernie's policies. I'm not quite sure how you can call that reductive when most Biden supporters can not name a single Biden policy from his platform that genuinely excited them.

      People generally do not care about policies Bernie's base may or may not have been an exception to this, but even if they were, policy people being outvoted by people who don't care about specific policies is completely normal democracy

      What about a party's media apparatus that seems to skew toward attacking a given candidate disproportionately - recalling after NV win Chuck Todd calling his supporters "brownshirts", Chris Matthews talking about getting lined up and shot, etc. Is this part of normal democracy?

      Well... Yeah, it is Or at least it historically is, maybe it shouldn't be but the very nature of democracy is people getting mad and taking sides

      Maybe we can agree it is part of "democracy" but certainly not a "normal" democracy? If people want to make a case that the media played a role in helping to elect Trump, media also played a role in helping to nominate Biden. Neither should be an acceptable state of things

      "Normal" as in typical for how democracy has always worked, yes

      In any case, while I think the media did a lot of things I disagree with in 2020 and 2016 I think it's kind of disingenuous to claim that this is about wanting the media to take some kind of objective meritocratic view from nowhere (there's no such thing)

      Sure, but I think there is a difference between a "completely objective view" and "I will be lined up and shot by communists if Bernie wins"/"Lets analyze Bernie's sexist body language". One shouldn't need a copy of Manufactured Consent to understand what is happening right?

      Biden led before any of that.

      Yeah Biden was the favorite back in early 2019 and then there was a lot of deck chair rearranging to obscure that fact but it never really changed

          Maybe my attitude would be different if I were an enthusiastic Bernie supporter but the "Bernie blackout" narrative does not seem true to me, individual cases of people being really anti-Bernie notwithstanding
