I know this, though: The "left" is full of factions of various kinds. That's one reason it fails to generate solid support from a wide range of people. There are so many single-issue people in the "left," that it rarely finds consensus about much of anything.
I have no trouble believing that there were sexual harassment issues within the Bernie support group. I'm thinking that it would be very rare for such issues not to be present in any campaign organization. It's a problem with any large group of mixed people who work together.
I don't see that as an endemic issue that reflects on campaigns, however. It's an issue of individuals who don't have their excrement together in most cases.
