Universe brain: Hillary is in fact the true progressive and Bernie is the true reactionary, so Bernie is better than Hillary because progress is a neoliberal feature of capitalist modernity that must be reversed, rather than embraced. Neoliberalism is not a return to feudalism but rather the very dialectical synthesis of capitalism and feudalism that Marx predicted; therefore, Marx was correct about his predictions for the evolution of society but wrong from a prescriptive standpoint, and the appropriate solution to neoliberalism is not communism but a return to the true feudalism that went extinct under Oliver Cromwell and the English Revolution.
