I know, I know, it's sacrilege.

Bernie can do no wrong, he's a socialist! He says so! He can tell you all sorts of things and factoids that the Establishment normally do not admit even exist! He says things like "DAPL" and "living wage".

But, you know... he actively chose to back the group of people that cheated him, knowing they cheated him.

He chose to endorse his opponent who he knows is flawed morally.

He backed off in South Carolina, a tipping point.

He chooses to never describe solutions; solutions that may run counter to the DNC party line. Solutions that must run counter to the DNC party line if they are to actually be solutions.

He only recently started acknowledging alternative media, and only in a very fleeting, almost ephemeral way.

All of that adds up to something. Kind of indeterminant, sorta sketchy, but unlike how he's treated by Progressives the sum does indicate

He's not Politics Jesus.

He's not your personal political savior. He is a vassal of the Blue Team. That is how he should be regarded, since that is what he chose. The emperor knows very well what clothes he's put on, it's visible in front of you.

Do not be fooled.

I think it turns out he's just another politician, albeit one with a specialty niche. I want to like Bernie like I once did, before he threw in the towel. But I can't pretend the above things are not real, and do not make me question his motivations and true intent.
