Sincere question for Bernie supporters. Do you think you were well-served by the Bernie social media echo chamber, where podcasters, YouTubers, and Twitter personalities triumphantly declared Bernie Will Win and never had a critical thing to say about the campaign's strategy?

he spent four years letting his campaign be captured by the most fiery and radical faction of his base. four years walking away from the plain spoken populism that was the source of his strength and adpoting the language of internationalist socialism
Those guys aren't fiery and radical, is the problem. Bernie himself can certainly see this. He decided to follow Corbyn down the PC path and it turns out working class voters don't give a shit about anything but immigration and trade, oops! Time to read settlers and start a cult
