On this forum the hack factor is a lot lower than on social media. Sanders supporters are really over the top of social media with their hero worship. There were folks circulating a photo claiming that Sanders had marched with MLK in Selma, which was not at all true. I'm a Clinton supporter, but it's not a hero worship thing.

Depends on what we're talking about. Overall, Bernie hacks. On this forum, Hillary hacks, and that's not even close.

You have to look at each hack individually. However, around here, I would say that (very generally speaking) Shillaries are worse than Sandernistas.

Bernie Hacks. I like guy but I don't think he's the second coming of Christ.

I also find his reliance on a "political revolution" to get his agenda passed to be quite laughable.

Internet users in general are more pro-Bernie and hackish, but the Hillary hacks on this forum specifically are easily worse.

Hillary hacks are generally more obnoxious since they like to say she's a victim of the big bad media and sexism, when in reality she's never been a victim of anything her entire life.

Neither. The people who focus on supporting Bernie, whether they're hacks about it or not, aren't bad. We're all Democrats and, unlike the Republicans, we all love each other and will support the eventual nominee, so who cares. Bernie getting young people excited about Democratic politics is a great thing, as it will lead to millions of Democratic votes in November.

The problem is the people who just kneejerk hate Hillary no matter what, and those people are reprehensible regardless if they're Sandernistas or Republicans.

In summary, Anti-Hillary Hacks are awful, and Hillary Hacks and Bernie Hacks are both awesome, except for the ones who also (and primarily) Anti-Hillary Hacks.

You're kidding, right? Every current headline on major news sites is about Sanders and his "last-minute push" or "winning strategy." Meanwhile, CNN is devoting entire segments to "chatter" about a Hillary indictment and the 22 top secret emails that were not top secret when she sent them.

Disgusting! Excellent video though. The media in this country truly is depraved. Hopefully if Hillary wins she makes one of her top priorities getting revenge against the press.

Coverage on Hillary's faux email scandal just reminds me of why I hate mainstream media so much these days. They will do anything for ratings, even if that means destroying a perfectly good candidate. The issue deserves some coverage, but not like this. It's all they #*@!ing talk about and they know damn well the harm it does. Just like how they won't stop covering every dumb thing Trump does, which is funding his media campaign for him and ultimately giving that buffoon a good chance of being the nominee.

I swear, MSM is straight up garbage.

Re: Hillary, I think it's especially disingenuous because it totally does not match the vibe on the ground in Iowa, at least from what I've seen of less filtered footage, interviews with supporters, etc. This story is like beating a dead horse and it's so transparent. Anyone with half a brain can see that the media is just trying to drum up controversy that barely exists. Literally all there is to this story is:

- 22 of Hillary's emails are not being released because the state department has now determined they contain top secret information
- The information was not top secret at the time they were sent

Why this issue has any legitimate grounds to transform into a media frenzy is beyond me.

In general? Berniebots. On this forum? Hillary fans, of course.
