    Aside from convention issue, amazing that Barney Frank - a gay Jewish Freedom Summer hero - is being trashed by left as too establishment.

        he's not really being trashed for that tho. He's being trashed for being mean to Bernie.

        true! I just think it's fake. "establishment" is nothing more than shorthand for "doesn't support Bernie". It's not substantive

        like the AIDS activists Bernie met with and then smeared as big pharma sellouts after they were critical of him.

        Big Pharma actually does exploit AIDS, charging unnecessarily high prices, often pushes drugs thru fake activism

        Bernie's camp thought enough of said activist to broadcast their meeting and frame it as support for his proposals

        then once the activist clarified meeting was not an endorsement of his proposal, they accused him of being bought

        "the left" has embraced people with far more problematic political histories. Like Tulsi Gabbard.
