I disagree with the Greens and the hard core "it doesn't matter who is elected" group. But I don't think, considering the stated goal here is trying to unite Democrats and independents in the election, that it is appropriate or constructive to be bashing many of us who do have mixed feelings..
We have not abandoned our views and do not appreciate seeing the movement that Bernie represented in the primary -- and the whole progressive movement -- being insulted at this point. It does not further unity or "enthusiastic support."
If criticism is not allowed here, then don't claim to have a discussion about "moving forward" couched in the derogatory terms of the OP.
Aim your fire at Trump and the GOP instead.
