Hypothesis: acceptance of that is necessary if Democrats are to learn the right lessons & improve.

acceptance specifically that "Bernie Sanders was right", or of the things you believe he was right about?

Both! Many people trashed Sanders disingenuously to beat him. Real change won't happen if they don't acknowledge that was wrong.

but lots of people (like me!) didn't buy the slander and just made the (wrong?) call on preference.

and constantly hearing things that pattern match like "I told you so" can trigger a bounce reaction.

That's fair, but your engagement suggests that you & others in that category can get beyond such knee-jerk reactions :).

I figured as much. That piece bothered me both because of its "everyone is equally to blame" nonsense & its citation of Bouie.

He spent most of the election being wrong & mocking people who more or less said what he's arguing now; I think that's worth noting.

I personally noted it a while ago, but I can easily believe many people have not yet. So I guess carry on!
