What can possibly be said about someone who writes this?
While there are exceptions, overall people who have organized and won battles - John Lewis, Dolores Huerta, etc. - went with Clinton. Whereas the high profile lefties with Sanders are overwhelmingly defined by a history of failed activist ventures. "Beautiful losers." he latter group generally feels that their activism fails not because of anything they're doing wrong, but "the system is rigged."
(Removed flatulent pseudo political history analysis here)
Since berating is a behavior especially satisfying for men, the Sanders crusade grants them permission to be jerks, & call it politics. It is thus the perfect cocktail for the emergence of the "Bernie Bro," who, again, is not a millennial but the aging white male activist. hey can't ever look in the mirror and say, "My god, we lost because of ME! We didn't train ourselves. We have no social skills!"
Allow me to help you , Al. In just 5 minutes of looking, I found all your “Beautiful losers” all in one place, so you can rant more specifically at them. Were you too lazy to even try to substantiate any of those factoids, or were you just too busy pulling analysis out of your ass?
Here’s your list of Beautiful losers, Bernie Bros, people who never accomplished anything. They’re lazy and untrained and lack your exquisite social skills. These are your imaginary unicorn people, and they need YOU, Al, to rescue them. I found them for you, Al. You’re welcome.
