      NYT article on the Sanders 2016 campaign makes matter-of-fact reference to "Bernie Bros," as if that was an objectively extant political phenomenon rather than something contrived in bad faith by cynics. Which gives you a sense of what assumptions the reporters are operating on.pic.twitter.com/3YxdOt4mPI

      The reporters helpfully remind readers that "Bernie Bros" was a "derogatory dubbing," but then they matter-of-factly state the supposed basis of the dubbing -- "aggressive online attacks." Many of these "attacks" were exaggerated, ridiculously spun, or outright fabricated.

      And on top of that: the logic behind "Bernie Bros" even being a "thing" in the first place is preposterous. Random online commenters being held up as a reflection on the candidate himself? Insane. NYT "normalizes" this nonsense by folding it credulously into a wider narrative.

          I went after Bakari Sellers harder than any female reporter. Accused of being a racist I exposed fact Bakari was a multiple DUI offender & I lost family in drunk driving. His political connections got him off the hook. A millionaire doing smear jobs on the Clinton News Network.

          I've been called a Bernie bro merely for engaging in a debate. I've never used sexist or demeaning language in these conversations and have made a concerted effort to be polite so as not to give them any ammunition. It still didn't work. On the other hand, there's this.pic.twitter.com/UqpjMbrbHu

          The Hillary crowd is still super bitter that the Bernie crowd didn't automatically vote for Hillary, or worse, some voted for Trump out of spite. Anything to avoid talking about what a garbage candidate Hillary was.

          As soon as I saw it was going to be a Trump V Hillary election, I put a huge bet on Trump winning, and made out like a bandit. Not cos I am a fan of Trump, but because of how terrible I knew Hillary was.

          were their bad actors on bernies side? im sure,every campaign has them,i sure as fuck heard so much derogatory remarks from "woke" white-liberals, but people simply ignore the roll that David Brock & correct the record played into manufacturing the berniebro narrative for Clinton

          The NYT prefers Kamala Bros, Beto Bros, Biden Bros, and Booker Bros. They don't like Bernie Bros. Oddly, they don't like Warren Bros either. Weird.
