She didn't lose the primary. More people supported and voted for her constantly from day one of the primary to the day it ended.
I caucused for Bernie but this reality denial shit is lame as fuck. Progressives need to be able to understand that in an ideologically diverse coalition, not everyone is going to agree with them, and that's the will of the voters, not corruption.
"I caucused for Bernie but I fucking hate progressives and everything they're about"
Cool story bro, just because you're on the internet doesn't mean you HAVE to lie. You can just openly say you hate progressives without this whole "trying to avoid the stigma of being a Republican" garbage.
Uder history confirms 😂
I've been disillusioned from the progressive movement largely because of the institutional inability in many of the prog organizations to deal with reality.
Lying and claiming I hate progressives is a good example of the kind of self defeating, toxic anti-intellectual verbal masturbation that drives me away. I'd rather deal with someone who I disagree with than an angry child like you who can't have a productive conversation with another human being.
