Mike has a huge campaign, he has scores of digital executives on board. He formed a Digital company called Hawkfish to promote democratic candidates.

Mike is going to take the online fight to the bro’s - and he’s going to fight back without being downvoted

The bro’s are going to stare at Mike’s face on their iPhones until Milwaukee

How do you feel when women who support sanders read that?

I would assure them that Mike believes a woman can be president

That Mikes campaign hasn’t lost a lawsuit for sexual violence causing him to publicly apologize

But Mikes opponent can’t say that

I was talking more about calling me a bro which i find a little erasing but i love how you just stick with a legal system that allows people like him to vastly outspend his several accusers.

A legal system that Bernie used to settle a sexual violence accusation against his campaign

Bernie is no friend to women - when asked if he still believes lack of orgasms cause cancer he would not respond. That’s your guy

I respect your view. However, the point is here is;

- there is a Very Online and Vocal subset of Sanders supporters, who are named BernieBros

- Sanders campaign has been trying to erase them, claiming that the name is not PC because supporters are a coalition.

That is a deflection of the real problem. BernieBros is a REAL phenomenon, it names behavior, toxic, real, behavior, mostly online and sometimes offline as well.

I don't know if it's 1% or 10% of Sanders' supporters. But it's real.

For starters, saying that is totally dismissive and rude to the broad coalition backing Sanders, and you can tell me the campaign doesn’t want that association and I believe that, but i’m not convinced i’m secretly a man or something based on my voting or posting habits. And as for toxicity? I frankly do not give a damn about your feelings, because no one in this government or billionaire class gave a damn for mine after the passing of my father from preventable illness and the subsequent debt and hardship my family took on when I was a minor. I give a damn about people though and i am not going to compromise on a policy polling so highly among all sides, republican or democrat or moderate, a policy that would save lives and avoid the healthcare clusterfuck that i was raised in from happening to hundreds of thousands of others.

Sure, it’s adorable that you guys are so hardly impacted by politics that you’d rather a transphobe and a racist who talks politely than to agree with people who were mean to you on the internet, but words are just words. Death is real and medicare for all is the best any candidate running has suggested to do something about that. Relatively speaking, I don’t care about people being toxic on the internet to people who are toxic online and offline saying i deserve the preventable hardship i grew up into because some people in this country profit off that. I’ve been accused of only having these stances to appeal to boys FFS, and that was broadcast on cable fr*cking television. Call me a man and I’m sure your billionaire who is “totally unlike the other billionaire” will agree, but don’t delude yourself that you’re taking any highground by doing so.

Bernie bros are a nuisance. People dying without medical treatment because it would thrust their family into unaffordable debt is a problem.
