I'm going to be responding to some of these people's comments. Anybody want to bet on how long until I get banned from the sub?

Okay, first, I'm going to try reasoning with them. If that doesn't work, let's all bern the subreddit down. It'll be fun.

Okay. I'm going to make one post about the differences between Trump and Sanders. If it gets upvoted, then that's okay. If not, then you guys can troll all you want.

Surprisingly enough, nothing seems to be going too bad yet. But 'yet' is the key word here.

Never mind.

"The media is manipulating people into staying home because they think Bernie has already lost. I know Trump is not the answer but it appears that no matter what Hillary is going to win because the media and the DNC are manipulating people. I hate this process and at this point I feel like my vote didn't even matter. The fix was in. Hate is not a strong enough word for how I feel about Hillary Clinton."

This one is actually very lucid and sane compared to most of the others.

Granted, it's still crazy, but at least they aren't accusing Clinton of rigging the vote or anything. I give that comment an A+ for effort.

Can't find any good anime reaction images, but oh well.

The establishment may have had their way now - but there are hundreds of FBI agents currently working on something. Hint - hundreds of FBI agents are not gathered for months chilling with Apple fuji salad at panara. An indictment is coming and we'll feel the Bern in the general." - /u/WienerNuggetLog

"It's odd, I may not be old (I've only been voting since 2008), but now I see why my dad, a military veteran, never voted. There's no choice, and we will never have a choice. I always thought he was wrong for his "nothing will change" attitude, and I voted in 2008, 2010, 2012, and 2014 to prove him wrong. Nothing changed. And now, both presidential candidates are under civil and criminal investigations in 2016.  America, the average voter deserves Hillary and Trump, they're just as idiotic. I'm done with politics, hopefully Bernie 2.0 will show up when I'm 60, or more likely, the United States won't exist.
The United States, as a whole, deserves this stagnation into nothingness." - /u/crispy111

"I don't understand how she still has support?! After all that has been exposed, why are people still supporting this lying, cackling shrill of a human being?!
She has shown me nothing that can be even remotely considered a rallying effort and she does nothing to run for support in California, basically said "I don't care about your state's specific issues" when she declined the debate and people are STILL VOTING FOR HER?!

"Sorry, I will not fall in line. I will not lower my standards for your country. We have 5 parties in Parliament in Canada and I would vote for your Green Party as if it was as strong as the one up north. If Bernie was the leader of the NDP up here, he'd have a comfortable majority government waiting up here for him.
Sorry, I have the sheer lunacy to believe viewpoints do not merely fall into a binary two-party system." - /u/JustALumpOfCanadium

Shut down the thread, I've found a winner:

"SHOW ME THE BALLOTS! I DEMAND A RECOUNT OF EVERY SINGLE MOTHERWHORING BALLOT OR YOU WILL TASTE THE COLOR OF MY STEEL, YOU WHORESONS! FOR TOO LONG WE HAVE STOOD IDLE WHILE THE WOMANISH HEATHENS OF THE ESTABLISHMENT MADE MOCK OF THE PEOPLE OF SANDERS, AND NO LONGER! RIDE! RIDE FOR REDISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH! RIDE FOR THE GLORIOUS PILLAGE OF WALLSTREET! RIDE TO USURP THE MANTLE OF THAT CACKLING HELLSHREW! RIDE! RIDE! RIDE!" - /u/MostViolentOfAllMen

"Sanders can run an independent run. Only one states date has passed to sign of for that, if someone knows how, we should do a petition and send it directly to him and get as many of us to sign it so he knows how many of us will support him, even as an independent, he would win. But that would be the end for the DNC." - /u/Ligetxcryptid12

Subreddit is getting flooded with legit trolls now. Trying to parse through the legit Berners from the parodies.

Check their comment histories. If they comment on /r/enoughsandersspam, /r/the_donald, whatever Clinton subreddits there are, etc, and/or they have no comment history, assume troll.

"I remember a long time ago, I was down voted for saying Hillary supporters were being fooled. People said that they could have a dissenting opinion. While that may be, the FACTS don't support their sh**tty opinion. The facts support Bernie. Now, she's fooled the populace into thinking she's better for the country, when in fact, she's not going to do sh**t for us. This country deserves whats coming. We tried to elect an honest principled leader who was RIGHT on the issue. But sadly, this country seems to be so damn confused, lost, misinformed, or just plain stupid, we couldn't elect that leader. What a tragic day this has been. A tragic election." - /u/DAN4680

So... how illegal is it to say you're running as a "true progressive"TM, to an AMA on Reddit, and get sent millions of dollars only to tragically come up short the last minute?

Who are you referring to at this point? Sanders or somebody else? Because I doubt it's illegal either way.

This comment right here is terrifying for a number of reasons.

"I'm so ing pissed. I got fired from my minimum wage job because I spent time phone banking during work. I would do it all over again if I could. I am so angry, good thing my wife is at her boyfriends house or else I would probably make a mistake I'd regret. Will anyone match me 10 dollars to say to the people of the DNC we hate them?" - /u/tripled9

Not sure what relevance this has, but it was posted in the thread.

"Holy . They just said on msnbc that 85% of no party preference mail in ballots sent out didn't have the DNC primary on them!!!!  THIS SYSTEM!
Edit: Because 85% of them didn't know that they needed to request a democratic ballot because it was never explained to them, apparently." - /u/jameruski
