Yes, he should seek "Sistah Souljah" moments by attacking the worst people on the Left. When possible he should hit Tumblr-style identity politics morons too.

No but I tentatively plan on merging a BTFO Sanders related threads to a giant megathread soon.

Yes. He should also harshly condemn anyone who voted Stein or #writeinBernie or similar dumb sh**t in the 2016 general election, refusing any donations from them and disallowing them to work on his campaign. Really every Democratic candidate should do that.

He should but he won't. He will hide behind some boilerplate talk about how this movement is bottom up, etc.

It's generally a bad idea for a presidential candidate to disparage any section of the electorate.

He should follow Warren’s lead and release the last 10 years of his tax returns.

Briefly read this as "Should Sanders openly condemn hot takes?"

The truth was disappointing.

You all realize that responding to BRTD's threads is exactly what he wants, right?

To the "tankies," yes he should it would rive home the distinction between Democratic Socialism as he espouses and the moniker of Communism that he is often slapped with.

As for "identity politics," see how well that works out for him (again) in the South when the primaries come around. If he can't win more voters of color, in particular, this time around then his path towards the nomination hasn't improved much since 2016.

I'm pretty confident most Southern blacks don't view as their top priorities the same things Tumblrites raving about "cisgender privilege" talk about, probably don't state their pronouns in conversation, don't freak out over things like a white person owning a Chinese restaurant as "cultural appropriation" and oh, I have a hunch probably aren't in favor of effectively reinstating segregation under "woke" grounds.

You could've said the same thing about Nazis five years ago.
