(135,425 posts)But the Bernie Brigade has to duel with the likes of the Trumpeters and the Cruz Missiles over that way--those guys aren't polite like Team Hillary--they'll tell those who are full of their own smarmy sanctimony right where to stuff it.
They like to bully--but they don't like being bullied so much. They could really have a good old Hammer and Tongs time over at Discussionist--but they might be bested by some of those wingnuts...or they might find they have more in common with them (see the bit about misogyny, above, in the OP) than they are willing to admit over on this side of the Internet fence.
Thing is, though, those wingnuts will never love Bernie...so that's where the fights would break out. If they had the guts to migrate over there (and, like I said, it would take guts because those guys aren't polite at all), it would probably be a good spectacle to read every so often! Kind of like a Gallagher Show--fun every once in a while. But messy...very messy! Sloppy! Wear old clothes if you're gonna sit in the front row!
