Maybe one day you guys will stop calling people brosocialists because they are too the left of you. Did Berniebro did work out that well or what? What is going to be the next attempt at this?

Or maybe he said neither.
This Warren's mess, nobody elses. No matter what you all dream up.
I suppose seeing actuall left-wing politicions is scary too some, we saw the same smears with Corbyn, its predicable at this point.
'Twas a cutlass swipe or an ounce of lead
Or a yawing hole in a battered head
And the scuppers clogged with rotting red
And there they lay I damn me eyes
All lookouts clapped on Paradise
All souls bound just contrarywise, yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!
Brocialism isn't a function of relative leftness, it's a function of chauvinism. Nor is it entirely synonymous with Bernie Bros since not every brocialist is a Bernie supporter and vice versa.

As above. Despite there being a lack of any significant ideological or even policy divergence compared to the other candidates, brocialists will construct ridiculous criteria to ensure that the only true socialist just happens to end up being a white dude.
It's less about a progressive agenda and more in the vein of "establishment bad, give me money" that propels the Yang Gang and bolstered Ron Paul back in the day.

I think it's ridiculous to say Bernie's supporters are all just a bunch of "bernie bros". Women support Bernie too. Bernie is the highest polling democrat right now. Warren has done enough to show she isn't a sincere human being like Bernie is.
Bernie Bros not actually reading posts and replying from the same list of talking points that are applied to every candidate except Bernie? Shocking.Brocialism isn't a function of relative leftness, it's a function of chauvinism. Nor is it entirely synonymous with Bernie Bros since not every brocialist is a Bernie supporter and vice versa.
Get better material.

It's obvious to everyone including the voters based on new polling that Warren's attempts at smearing Bernie as some old white mysogynist failed. "Are you calling me a liar on national TV??" *with CNN cameras ready to pick it up* *eyeroll* She's so dramatic. She could have easily just said "I'm sure there was a misunderstanding or something, because Bernie has stood for women's issues for decades and was even the one who first convinced me to run in the first place." But noooo.. She wanted to try to take advantage of the smear and play the "But I'm a woman and I have a vaginnaaaaaaa"
"Alexa play video of Greta Thornberg saying How Dare you"

warren had the perfect evil plan! it was so perfect that it didn't work!
lol.
Yes, she could have. But she didn't, and appeared to voice genuine frustration.
Hey, just so you know - the idea that women weaponise their sex and automatically assuming that any criticism is doing so is in itself sexist. This is why people are pointing out the disparity in scrutiny.
Again, the idea that someone has never said or done anything problematic in their life beggars a lot more belief.

Enlighten me. She completely overreacted over a comment from 2 years ago (that even if true) wouldn't even be a big deal. Like refusing to shake his hand and screaming at him while on camera that he's calling her a liar. "How dare you not believe me! I'm a woman!"

Gender politics about issues which actually matter to women yes. But you people tend to blather on about micro-aggressions and shit like that which affect no one. If you wanted to talk about, say, the historically low success of the prosecution of rapists or the mortality rate of female infants in ghettos we can talk....but otherwise just shut up and be quiet, you aren't helping any one, not even the few women who expect to receive the presidency on grounds of having a vagina.
I've had actual conversations on this site where posters insist there's no subconscious sexism in, say, hiring because everyone knows men are just better at stuff. So yeah, it's fun watching people insist there's no sexism against Warren, the lying, treacherous hysteric.
