It's not inflammatory if it appears virtually at the end of a long substantial rebuttal with the rhetorical function of saying "so in summation this take is fucking bad". You know that.

I mean that's clearly what happened if Warren is right. I don't need bishops take to understand what is happening.
It's not sizable and significant in any meaningful way. It'd likely be the same number for every candidate's coalition.
Of course they know that, that is why they didn't want to argue but say the poster isn't making a "good faith engagement".
No, but you need some critical thinking to understand why maaaaaaaybe taking Warren's word at face value on this is Not Good (tm).
I don't know what happened. I'm inclined to believe her because she's my first choice. I don't know for certain tho.
"I don't think that all Sanders supporters are sexist but I'm here to remind you that they support a candidate who has an army of sexist bros at his disposal" sure is something.
lmao
it's so tiring and pure nonsense
yeah and yours have been particularly bad
Do words hold specific meanings for you, or do you just hit people with the heaviest ones that come to mind?
lol christ if we are at calling Surfinn of all people a fascist you know the discourse is rock fucking bottom
Idk if I'd say that. I've seen some pretty disheartening misogynist shit over the last 48 hours.
Maybe don't do this. Maybe we can disagree with each other without making the accusations. I know Fred made one too, but I just got here, so I'm taking things as they come.
This a good well thought out post.
Shame the rest of the discourse is going as expected.
Imagine calling surfin of all people a fascist. Holy lord 2020 starting strong on era
Frankly, it's disturbing how many Bernie supporters are acting like this is a game and totally disregard sexism embedded in our culture. Rather then try to understand another point of view they're more interested in weaponising sexual harassment terms which have been relevant into hitting "below the belt." No reflection, no compassion the woman must be a liar and Bernie must not be perceived as flawed. They're not interested in deescalating this, this is a justification to go after everyone they were waiting for. This isn't about being progressive, it's about supporting Bernie at all costs.
What's really baffling, but not surprising, is that Sanders and his proxies encourage this behaviour. It explains why he lacks so many friends and allies in Washington when he won't spend five minutes trying to understand where Warren's coming from.
There are plausible criticism against Warren and her campaign about how they made mistakes here, and they're not interested in examining them. You're either with Bernie or you're The Enemy who must be destroyed.
I hope Bernie's happy with the results. He's going to need all the happiness he can get when Biden wins the nomination.

She went to the press instead of handling the matter privately. In a presidential race. For president.
I mean did it hurt your feelings?
I did it because your post had an attitude of you know better and do what I say.
To be clear, my intention wasn't to make an accusation.
I came to the thread to share what I feel is a unique take from an acclaimed woman who personally knows both Warren and Sanders. When that article was dismissed as "actually evil" it made me automatically realize that there's no common ground to be found there and that my read of that post is that poster is looking for a fight, not a discussion. If I'm wrong there, my bad, but I'm not into entering discussions with people holding flamethrowers. As you can see from some of my back and forth with Surfinn, I'm happy to engage when the dial is not at 11, but if it is, I don't see the point.
After saying he will win because he isn't a woman and won't be subject to sexism like Hillary last week!
He really is graded on a curve!
Considering the entire premise of this discussion is literally the bolded, your post really does reach the loftiest heights of the use of "see, sexism!!!" to immediately neutralize situations that make politicians you like look like shit
Its amazing watching you double down on using words like sexual harassment and fascist without understanding their meaning.
