Electoralism is dumb, but I’m just trying to remember if that was a thing just before Bernie dropped out in April.

Biden campaign was out there telling people it was safe to vote while Brrnie was trying to move it all to mail in ballots. They refused until he conceded.

Given that was the event which radicalized me, I think the DNC blew their load too early.

I might be remembering incorrectly, but I thought they wanted to pin blame on Bernie for elections being spreader events by trying to hang on till the end.

Yes and he was most of the way out the door anyway. The Democrats were never going to budge and postpone primaries or anything like that to give him a chance since he’d already been far closer to winning than they were comfortable with (which isn’t even all that close ofc).

IIRC they moved the primaries to mail in only like the day after he dropped out.

What a funny coincidence. Stuff like that just happens without anyone having nefarious motives I guess.
