The anti Bernie propaganda is scared of people rallying around him since Bidens departure

Theres no real replyabout his "betrayal"

While I don't traffic in such forceful language, I can answer what @criitz means:

Bernie Sanders raised millions of dollars on the promise to lead a political revolution. For many supporters, that proposition was taken literally. They thought that his campaign was not simply a vehicle to give him the power of the presidency, but was the organizing structure for a persistent movement of activists reengaging with democracy each and every week BETWEEN elections. And when he dropped out, a lot of those people lost their connections to social and organizing structures that were giving them hope and an outlet for meeting like-minded people to find ways to make their communities better. So when he ended his campaign and all that money and infrastructure got instantly packed up and taken away, they felt like they'd been misled.

Some found their way into activism through the DSA or climate groups, but for many, the way in which he disbanded his campaign without following through on the implied promise to transform it into something durable was a very unexpected and painful surprise.

Here's a tip: you ever see the above user say anything, ignore it because it's stupid.

I think Bernie's earned it though. He may be old, but he's still mentally intact. Trump was never mentally intact, and Biden......well........yeah. Biden kinda fell off his rocker. Good man. I wish him all the best, and hope he gets the care he needs. However, we don't really need someone who talks about how we defeated health care running our health care.

I may hate Trump, but he did have one line that I think sealed the deal for Biden. He said "I don't know what he said, I don't think he knows what he said", and everybody just kind of saddly nodded their head, because it was true.

But Bernie will be a firecracker up your ass fighting the good fight for every American. And unlike a lot of these politicians, he's not a phoney. Harris can say that she's changed, and she now stands to legalize marijuanna, and all this other stuff.....but she has a track record. Bernie has a track record too, except he HASN'T changed. There's photos of him in the 60s getting arrested fighting for civil rights. I'd rather he be president than a younger person who may or may not be who they say they are. Plus I like his policies.
