I love that he’s like, ‘that’s very concerning Bobby’. Like you would to a child. I’d say that’s appropriate because RFK has the mind of a child, but that’s really insulting to children.

It’s because these people all know each other and are friends behind closed doors. It’s all a game, and you are the one being played, thinking one side actually cares about you.

Besides the fact that the "enlightened centrism" position is bullshit, using cynicism to gain a fictional intellectual high ground (and missing the fact that "not great" and absolutely disastrous are not equivalent), there's even more things wrong with your comment. 

One side

And which side is Bernie Sanders on? Because if you had any clue you'd know he's an independent senator, not affiliated with either party. He has plenty of disagreements with the Democratic establishment, but unlike you, he knows that preventing a much bigger evil from controlling the country is worth some degree of compromise.

Found another one.

I will simply refer to the second sentence of my previous comment.

But keep obsessing with politics if that’s how you choose to live life. Doesn’t cost me anything.

You know, that would be an argument to have for like… most anyone else. There’s a few other exceptions, but most of them are women of color. But you’re making it about Bernie “the DNC repeatedly fucked me over to win primaries for their guy, which literally caused all this in the first place” Sanders. Something tells me the guy they had to repeatedly screw over to win against isn’t the guy with the in.

To your quoted statement I would add “…and then he stepped in line and schilled for those who screwed him over so he wouldn’t lose his position and power.”

I've seen some incredibly dumb, uninformed, ignorant ass shit fall out of the yammering face holes of some brain damaged, backwoods morons before and holy shit does this rambling nonsense really compete for first place.

Listen, I know Bernie Sanders from my youth. I guarantee you, he doesn't know RFK, Jr. Bernie doesn't "hang" with anyone. He's a stoic curmudgeon that leaves Washington D.C. when his work is done and sits at home by himself until its time to come back.

He called him Bobby to disrespect and diminish him as a serious person.

Haha. Wanna know why I know Bernie Sanders? When I was a kid my family was at a parade when Bernie was running for Representative for the first time. He was on a Cabot float with a bunch of people in Cow costumes and instead of throwing out candy they were throwing out samples of Cabot cheese. He clocked by 18 month old brother right in the face with cheese and felt bad about it.

He stayed in touch with our family for many years. It was my grandmother's favorite story to tell.
