Gorbachev announced Glasnost in 1985, and proposed a ban on all nuclear weapons by the year 2000 in 1986; the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991. This is all just so pathetic and historically illiterate. https://t.co/JeIoVFjuyV— Nikhil Pal Singh (@nikhil_palsingh) March 6, 2020

Eventually she handed him her "Baby Bear," a gesture of tremendous trust in a strange man, as any parent of a toddler attached to a stuffed animal can confirm. Bernie took the bear, smiled, and asked her to tell him about her backpack. It was an incredibly sweet moment. pic.twitter.com/kLo1qpApiz— Andrew Bissell (@arbissell) March 6, 2020

It is admittedly hard to see those who care about civility + toxicity (which I understand) sit in silence about the disturbing antisemitism emerging around Sen. Sanders. A pundit also compared him to a disease on national TV.It’s disturbing. If you care, please care everywhere. https://t.co/hMSJ87Id52— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) March 6, 2020

When you've been told "fuck you, you're awful" often enough by an opponent's supporters, it makes it a bit harder to stop and say, "you know, you guys are right; I'm fucked up and your guy is God's own truth".

If the candidate/campaign in question routinely condemns said abuse, and it occurs on a platform that's deeply susceptible to both silly hyperbole and outright fakery, then yeah, kinda!
― bold caucasian eroticism (Simon H.), Saturday, 7 March 2020 04:14 (four years ago) link
Snake emojis are not abuse and she wanted to be President, a job where you're criticized 24/7 around the globe.

I don't see Bernie's campaign condemning any other candidates for their supporters' racist and anti-Semitic horseshit he and his surrogates have had to endure.

true that. but it does not stop one from considering whether you should endorse that criticism, based on whether you thought it just, or simply abusive. abusive criticism is never likely to earn an endorsement. demanding an endorsement because you thing you 'deserve' it is also a questionable way to extract such an endorsement. this is not practical politics, so much as practical human relations.

So back to what I said - if snake emojis outweigh all of your stated principles... hope President Biden is on board to roll back the bankruptcy bill that he wrote that she got into politics to fight.

it amazes me that you cannot see any reason why such treatment at the hands of Bernie's supporters might, uh, complicate what you see as Warren's clear obligations to you. this reminds me of teenagers who can simultaneously mock their parents and do whatever can they think of to make them miserable, then relying on those same parents to support them, feed them and generally deliver non-stop gratification of their desires, because it is their obligation to do so.
― A is for (Aimless), Saturday, 7 March 2020 04:30 (four years ago) link
But it doesn't matter - she's out and not up for reelection until 2024 so barring a surprise endorsement her relevance is minor and her mentions can go back to being peaceful.

And yes, if "such treatment" "complicated" her support for Medicare For All, I don't think she ever actually cared about it all that much.

she can continue to support her principles within her capacity as US senator, without supporting Bernie. this small fact escapes you. Bernie is not a principle. he's a candidate.
