If you said
"I will vote for her but I will hold my nose"
(that one alone, spoken by any given person, is heard by 3 other people, 2 of them repeat it and it is heard by a total of 6 more, and on and on and on and before you know it, thousands of people who were on the fence are now NOT voting)
"But she gave a speech on Wall Street and was paid by corporatists"
(this one often was followed by "both parties are really the same", and when THAT one is heard by 2 people then 6 and so on, a few thousand MORE now not voting)
I assume anyone who participated in this (looking at you John Fugelsang, glad you are not doing it now but still) really sincerely no shit owes US an apology...dont you think?
This has ZIP to do with Bernie...people said this shit while the primaries were going AND AFTER!
BY THE WAY
It is not just about the BLM issue, while that is huge, the virus may KILL ME and it would NOT have had ....shit...FUCK

Solid instincts. Just lovely.
I suggest you get over it and worry about whats happening in this moment, now, in front of us.
Or flip out and yell at people who are with you. Whatever you deem useful.

But her emails, but her speeches, but we need to bring on the revolution now. Blah, blah, blah.
We'll wait forever for an apology from the media who propped this monster up and nit-picked a good woman to death.
