So. Based on that meme, are Bernie supporters, like Trump supporters, fed up with being called racist, sexist, homophobic, etc.?

Sexist liberal men are more likely to support *any* male candidate. Yes to that but doesn't necessarily reflect on his character or politics

And in no way does it indicate that a majority of his supporters are sexist liberal men. That is why I say "Bernie Bros" is vile propaganda.

After a brief period when most people used it to refer specifically to Bernie supporters who make sexist comments, it became a blanket term.

I can't take ardent HRC fans seriously when they say "I didn't mean ALL Bernie supporters," or "No, my gendered insult isn't male-bashing."

So what you're saying is... the comments in that meme are bad, but represent a vocal minority of sexists who are likely to support any male?

What meme? I was talking about the overall impact of Bernie critics using Bros language knowing that it's divisive & feeds into gender bias.

Men are almost half of all people. To generalize all of the men who support a candidate is absurd, not to mention bad political calculus.

It's that old "Fuck you... now go vote for us" 1-2 punch that Democrats have been using for decades in their efforts to win hearts & minds.

Oh sorry my question pertained to the "Clintonistas in 2016" meme that @SupaReaper shared. I objected to it on similar grounds...

Seems that as long as I don't express scorn, people are often open to polite suggestions about divisive terminology.https://twitter.com/luciusringwald/status/887394358303043585 …
