      Nah. You’d have to actually attend a Bernie event. They aren’t anger events. They aren’t rage events. The are about love and big ideas. They are about moral and political courage. You’d be hard pressed to find angry people at Bernie’s events. No violence or hate.https://twitter.com/vexedinthecity/status/1118170667629805570 …

      It's not surprising that the Fox crowd that cheers Trump would like Bernie's ideas too because it's the opposite sides of the same kind of populism. Difference being, Trump's targets minorities and Bernie's targets "elites." But at the end of the day, it's all driven by anger.

      "Love and big ideas," you say? Just this weekend there was a "Fuck Hillary Clinton" chant at a Bernie rally and Bernie supporters online are notoriously hostile and incorrigible towards supporters of other candidates. He's honestly just a mirror of Trump in terms of anger.

      Bernie and Trump both use their platforms to blame others for the problems their supporters face. Trump blames minorities. Bernie blames corporations. Neither are solution oriented approaches as much as they want to use boogeymen to gin up antipathy to drive support.

      Strange how every Democrat running in the primary has adopted Bernie's solution oriented approaches, yet apparently Bernie is all about blaming others?

      Curious if this person was coherent during 2016. Hillary supporters' noses aren't clean when it comes to hostility. In fact, in terms of online behavior, studies showed that Hillary supporters were by far the most hostile. Not surprising, considering there WERE paid trolls.

      It's 2019 and every time a Democrat announces their intention to run for President, the Bernie supporters come out en masse to tell us why the person running isn't a real Democrat. It's ironic considering Bernie isn't a Democrat, but here we are.

      I have literally never heard a Bernie supporter say who is and isn't a Democrat. Maybe you mean a progressive?

          I have literally seen Bernie supporters here call Beto a Republican, say Kamala Harris hates black people, and question Cory Booker on education. This is what they do. They immediately demonize anyone who isn't Bernie.

          Calling people out on their voting record or past actions is not demonizing. We should all be talking about peoples records before a primary. Feel free to look into Bernie's record too. I want to know each of the candidates and am grateful for the info.
