As an activist known for being strategically *uncivil* (mocking CEOs, shaming DHS Sec Nielsen out of a restaurant), I want to clarify something:
The pushback against online abuse/harassment from a segment of Bernie supporters is not about civility. It is about tactics. 1/
It would be awesome if Sanders supporters took the lead of @IlhanMN and Bernie himself in trying to build a coalition with grace and not schadenfreude. Not seeing a lot of that right now, but one can always hope humanity will find a way.
Bernie folks! Talk up your guy! Tweet all the great things he has done & all the positive plans! Spreading negativity around Warren, whether facts or not, is not going to help Bernie in the slightest. You’re pushing even more ppl toward crusty Joe. #nogoforcrustyjoe
@flowerbott0m 2. Go after the real disease, our corrupt as fuck system who makes ppl have to play the game of voting for ppl they don’t want in order to keep worse ppl out.
@flowerbott0m 1. Love you pal, but Hillary supporters said the same thing about Bernie primary voters (of which I was one) last go around. I go with the candidate whose plans and most align with my values! It does no good to go after Warren supporters.
Hey Christians. Come get your bus stop stalking, bible thumping, pamphlet waving ppl who come up to me saying that I “look like I need god.” I’m just trying to get to work and don’t need a homophobe interrupting @DykingOut podcast. If anyone #notallchristians this... so help me.
@mn_for_warren @ewarren I made a few $5 donations to Bernie in 2016 because he was the best candidate and that’s what I could afford. Now, I donate $5 a month to @ewarren because she’s the best candidate and I can afford a bit more :)
Not exactly the question you asked, but figured it’s fun to share.
@bleuribena 8 days.
On days 1-3 I’ve got to set my alarm every 2 hours to dump out my cup in the middle of the night. Been doing this since 7th grade. I’m 33 now.
Yes, my doc knows and there aren’t any great options that work for me and my body/health besides what I’m currently doing.
