HIFW talking to a hot Berniebro

Why they got "destroyed" is completely different thought and the biggest issues are completely different too.

In US the "leftist" lost the primary against a famous candidate with support in the party. He wasn't well known before the primary and there was no consistent base that existed from before his election. The major issue was Healthcare and taxes and some minor policies here and there and rhetoric.

In France the left has long-standing base and the animating issue within the PS was El Khomri law. Hamon who was a rebel won but the left was divided between Hamon and Melenchon who could not unite because of many reasons.

Europe was another big issue for division between Hamon and Melenchon.

Anyway it is all irrelevant I guess. Most of the people here are mostly animated by anti-Bernie beliefs because they had lots of arguments with BernieBros and stuff. Very heated stuff. I followed the primary. It was very emotional and aggressive. Clinton supporters were called shills, corrupt and all other things and Clintonites did their attacks too on Bernie supporters - sexist, racist etc. There was convention drama and a 100 other things.

That is the main experience that causes this hostility. Discussing taxes and French healthcare won't heal it.
