Between the characterization of black people who support Hillary as "low information voters" who only support her because they "know who she is" and this level of really open blatant INSULTING of minorities and efforts to improve our plights in American culture all in an effort to boost Bernie Sanders is just too much.

I know I shouldn't let it get to me but you're right, it is so fucking insulting and it is painful. I appreciate you talking me down.
