Look, a couple things:
1. Not all of us Democrats are blaming everyone but her. She was a terrible candidate, and should have dropped out once the email thing started growing. However, given the margins in rust belt and other trends in the final days, Comey probably did sink her, and the trickle of emails from the DNC/Podesta very clearly generated animosity within the ranks and among some other voters, so Russia definitely did hurt. This could have been avoided if she hadn't gotten the nomination, but it's still a factor in her loss
2. It's only been like 4 months since the election. At least give the party time to come to terms with their loss here. Just because the Bernie wing thinks it has the answers here (maybe it does), doesn't mean everyone is just going to accept it as soon as they lose the election. From their perspective, there is no guarantee other factions on the left are any more correct in their ideas than they (Clinton supporters) thought they were.
