from the start of this process, i never referred to bernie as anything more than a legit lesser evil, and it was refreshing to at least get that for a while, until the reality started to sink itself in.
in 2016, the military-industrial complex rigged the election in favour of trump and then blamed it on the russians to distract you. if you start seeing them blame bernie's successes on the russians, you should take it as an admission of guilt.
