There is hard data that shows Bernie Bros is a myth

You repeatedly claim that Bernie supporters are ignoring the existence of some problem themselves and Bernie bear personal responsibility for correcting, and I'm saying that there is literally nothing Bernie or his normal supporters can individually do to correct the problem. You're blaming Bernie and his normal supporters for an unfixable problem which is a fundamental feature of the internet. Bernie could put a page on his website like Pete did and it would still change absolutely nothing. He could condemn his own supporters way more than he already has and it would change absolutely nothing.

The people who claim that there's no problem whatsoever are wrong, but the people who claim that there needs to be some concerted effort by normal people who support Bernie Sanders and Bernie himself to correct that problem, like yourself, are also wrong. Feel free to condemn shitty Bernie supporters on an individual basis, that's fine. But condemning his entire politcal movement comprising millions of people as if they are personally responsible for people being mean on the internet is utterly asinine.
