A very telling one.
RedGreenandBlue, the folk who mostly hang in the AA forum made a bunch of earnest attempts to explain why they tended to support Hillary over Sanders, and the reasons they explained in detail just don't support fit your narrative. And my motivations certainly do not either.
Suffice it to say that describing a solid majority of Democrats as choosing a "default candidate," under the assumption that we're all too lacking in knowledge, commitment and principle to make a responsible choice insults everyone. This may only be partly intentional as I find your entire post severely lacking in the insight, information, and empathy needed to understand people you disagree with.
