What exactly is a "Bernie Bro" for you all? Someone whose devotion to Sanders makes them actively hate Hillary, or simply someone who has supported / cast a vote for him? Because the rhetoric in here seems to have gotten to the point that there can be no sensible reason for supporting him, which I think is a gross oversimplification.
what the fuck is wrong with you?

A BernieBro, IMO, is someone who will not budge on any issue but one supported by Bernie or what they feel is progressive. They will be very passionate, loud, and potentially violent towards those who aren't on their wagon. No amount of facts, reason, or kindness can sway them. It is their way or the highway.
I must not ever have encountered in real life the kind of Bernie zealots a lot of you talk about, so I have a hard time understanding the vitriol for them.
From my perspective I can see how someone would be excited about a candidate who represents an alternative to Clinton, who strikes me as plenty capable but ultimately a centrist who will likely only kick the semi-liberal can down the road for another four or eight years. I certainly don't see it as fair to dismiss all Bernie support as disguised misogyny.
It certainly will be a landslide against Trump. In fact, of the votes cast for Clinton, about 90% will be against him and about 10% will be for her.

I'd be very curious to see some demographics on Bernie support, because I think the allegations of obstinance and hypocrisy are a lot more fair if they are generally well-off than if they are people who are really affected on a daily basis by debt, wealth inequality, etc. Personally I think the Bernie phenomenon is very telling of cultural and economic tensions that Clinton has been dancing around to an extent.
The fake hash-tag was supposed to be from the example of people supporting Clinton but not liking her rather than from myself and it's just a joke to begin with. I for one could never reflect that sentiment because I never will "be with her". Still will make no apologies for it though. Words are just words and actions are everything. Be mad at the person who actually accepts money from Goldman Sachs and supports fracking and sent thousands of Americans to their deaths over in Iraq rather than some guy on a message board.
Some of us have been asking that long before Bernie ever ran for President.
Just check out his opinions on most anything. From Star Wars to U2. Maybe even film. Or just music in general. Didn't you hear? People only buy Adele albums because Adele is overweight and her fans are too.
There are only about 100 posts that speak otherwise.Not even sure why I'd fall under the Bernie banner in the first place. I supported the guy, but it's about progressive issues for myself. Any comment I have made about Clinton comes from where I stand on the spectrum and how I feel about her and nothing about that would be different if Bernie had ran or not.
Gotta love how quick people are to say there's misogyny and hate involved for me simply not agreeing with her. I guess I'm a white supremacist too for not voting for Obama either?
Maybe some of you will now needlessly show up at Trump rallies with signs because he's such a bad man? Then you can tell your kids years from now that you took a bold stance and said racism was bad and were really politically active and a wonderful human being because you voted for a black man and a white woman, even if they accomplished next to nothing in their sixteen years of office, appointed Wall Street problem makers to important posts and murdered thousands of innocent people with drone strikes.
Who needs to actually change the problems in society when you can just try to label others in online forums, Twitter, etc.?
