"But Bernie shouldn't be blamed for his Bros."

Quote, January 4, 2019:


But Bernie shouldn’t be blamed for his Bros.
Yes, he had to repudiate an essay from his hippie days in which he wrote of women fantasizing about rape. But anyone who tells you they never said or wrote things during foolish youth that they wish they could take back is lying. I said things I regret. So have millennials — look at Sanders’s sexist backers, at least those with a conscience.

My response:

Of course, because everyone knows that the hippies were all about using rape as an instrument of peace.  Me, I prefer using sarcasm, but we all have our idiosyncrasies.
