If you think in that quote Matthews was intending to liken Bernie supporters or Bernie to Nazis, rather than describing the unexpected and complete nature of the victory, then you are as much of an idiot as Chris Mathews is for not seeing this coming, no offense.

He could have chosen literally any other analogy. Even if youā€™re right it was still a really dumb thing to say.

Not arguing itā€™s not a dumb thing to say, but Matthews point wasnā€™t that Bernie or any of us were like nazis, he was talking about how Bernie destroyed the field. Itā€™s a stupid interpretation of his comment. Jesus. Bernie is steamrolling everyone and some of yā€™all are still out there jumping on the stupidest things to get upset about.

Matthews is dumb enough without manufacturing outrage over his Maginot line comment.

Defending anti-semetic comments is not a good look.

Not this dude. Think for a moment, you can figure it out. There are like 100 other examples of crushing military victory that could be used instead but he compares him to ze germans.

Analogizing anything to the Nazis, then trying to explain the nuance because you didnā€™t mean the BAD stuff the Nazis did, is no bueno. That should be very obvious to anyone.

The problem is this is the same dude who said people like Bernie used to take people like him out to central park and execute them. And people like Bernie used to watch.

Was that a mistake too? lol

Itā€™s a pattern my guy.

Same dude who called Bernie supporters brown shirts. Or are we misinterpreting that one too, iron?

Chuck Todd was the one with the brown shirt comment

Love that the members of the culinary union came out to support Bernie big even after the leadership attacked him and m4a

Ah shit, my bad. Itā€™s hard to keep track of which MSM host uses which nazi analogy on an attempt to malign Bernie.

A pattern of what?

The quote you are referencing was talking about the Cold War and heā€™s conflating communism with socialism. He has several quotes that make it clear heā€™s terrified of socialism. Cool, heā€™s dumb and ignorant. Getting indignant over his dumb quotes for reasons that are even dumber is obnoxious, imo.

Thats the fucking point dude lol. Conflating Bernies socialism to communist China, Then conflating Bernies win to the Nazis in 1940.

Thats a pattern of him conflating Bernie to extremely dangerous authoritarian murderous regimes to millions of fucking listeners, Meanwhile Bernies family was fucking murdered by the Nazis. If you donā€™t think thats unacceptable then I donā€™t know what to tell you. This is a journalist with a massive responsibility and he is likening Bernies movement to the worst most evil dictatorships of all fucking time.

Burying your head in the sand while complete fucking hacks with massive amounts of influence try to scare old white people into not voting for Bernie, probably even staying home in the general, is a huge fucking problem.

The thing is people on the right literally say the same shit about Bernie. Heā€™s gonna murder people and put them in camps. This isnā€™t new. The left wing media trying to use that imagery to take down Bernie is dangerous as fuck and disgusting as fuck.

Agree with you, Stim. He appeared to be expressing his disappointment with Bernie crushing the competition by checks notes likening it to a Nazi victory. Forgive me if I clutch a pearl or two, but that is offensive regardless of his intentions.

There is no ā€œleft-wing mediaā€ in this country. Itā€™s just different flavors coming out of the same corporate shit pipe.

Reminds me of when Matthews said Klobuchar was on a blitzkrieg through New Hampshire.

True dat. Still we gots of reliable dem voters watching those garbage fucking channels and we should at least demand they have standards for them to not compare a popular leftist to fucking murderous authoritarian regimes.
