While I don't agree with the tone in which BMP is trying to make this point, I think the basic premise stands: people are contorting to give Hillary the benefit of the doubt on pretty much every single criticism that comes her way, usually trying to brush it aside as misogyny, yet assuming the absolute worst of Bernie and his supporters.
If people don't like Bernie and his supporters, fine, but the claim that things have been even-handed in here in terms of Hillary and Bernie is not even remotely grounded in reality.
Wow. I don't even know where to begin on this. Do you think that maybe, just maybe, the candidate that has every false, witchhunt accusation and slur thrown at her, might just have more reasonable people saying, Look, there is no proof of this, this is bullshit, this is a false narrative that's been cooked up for decades.
I'm sorry, but Clinton supporters are pretty open in saying, yep, she made a bad decision, she had a bad stance on that for a while, she fucked this up... etc...
But I could list of a dozen horrible votes and decisions by Sanders and would never have a Bernie person admit that he was wrong.
I really don't know where you're getting this.
Can you imagine if Clinton had done what Bernie did with Sierra Blanca? If she were a huge proponent of the F-35 program? If kept stalling and blocking release of her tax returns? If she had actually voted for the Crime Bill that they credit her for anyway? If she had voted for deregulating credit default swaps like Bernie did? If she had the same history with the NRA and gun control votes?
She would be crucified by the same people that see nothing wrong with Bernie doing it.
