Bernie's an old white man, don't vote for him. Bernie supporters are sexist and racist. Look how white they are! Just Bernie Bros. Identity politics is everything. Socialism is whack. Young people are stupid. Hillary is experienced and can Get Things Done. Bernie supporters just want free things. I support Obama, Bernie dares to criticize him. FIRST WOMAN PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

She's not being tarred for being bossy, rather for being a corporatist.

She may want to consider these two points of view, as might we all.

Clinton means a Trump Presidency... Save us Bernie-wan, you're our only hope...
The predicted rise of Nationalist Populism, a Republican monster unleashed upon us all.

That second link again....

Don't you get it? If you're anti-Hillary, you're sexist. All this anti-Hillary from Bernie Bros like you is just sexist nonsense. Hillary is no corporatist - she said herself she would be Tough On Wall Street.
7
Has she released her bankster speech transcripts yet?
8
I feel like I have seen better writing on this comment thread alone.
9
Smells like Gender tribalism
10
Why do people attack Bernie Sanders? Are they just being anti-Semitic?
11
Hillary should release those transcripts because trust me: Donald Trump already has them and will use them come October.

She should do it now to control the message....unless the message on those transcripts is really that damaging?

Is Myles, like Huerta and Ferrera, misrepresenting Sanders on rape? I hadn't heard about that rape story, and it appears that Sanders is embarrassed today by it, didn't he write that women have rape fantasies rather than that women want to be raped? Hasn't it been established that some women do have rape fantasies but that that doesn't mean they actually wish to get raped?
13
I'm voting for Hillary!
15
That poet is tedious.
16
Huh? Um, citation please? Or is this a poem? And how do we know she's not being ironic?

I am not in the bag for Bernie - I'll vote for whoever the Demo nominee is- but the rape accusations against the man are cheap and sleazy politics:

And the Planned Parenthood tar is equally slimy:

I don't mind HRC being "bossy" I do mind and how she uses people to slander her opponents. She has a long track record of that. These are old school strong arm politics of the Goerge Bush Willie Horton playbook.

But HRC would be a thousand times better than any Republican currently in the running, so there is that.

Who else is missing Obama already?

Bernie hates women and wants to defund Planned Parenthood. 'Sanders has written about women's desires to be gang raped'. Just ****ing incredible. Incredibly disingenuous. Disgusting. An endorsement filled with lies I'd expect from a republican. I have almost zero respect for Eileen Myles now.
22
Well I came expecting middling writing from a poet, and here I am unsurprised. Fuck poets.
23
As stated above in the comments, it is complete bullshit saying Bernie is against funding for Planned Parenthood.

Seriously, when you have lie and misrepresent to advocate for your candidate, your candidate has a problem.
24
If you have to lie like Myles does repeatedly in her essay, your argument is probably bad to begin with.
25
There two sets of lazy racist angry white men in this country. Two thirds of them mostly live in the deep south and are supporters of Trump. The remaining third mostly lives in urban areas and constitute the core of Sanders supporters.

Please wait...
