The anti-Democratic Party left of various names, independent , etc.

Might I respectfully disagree that Sanders's followers are mindless cult followers . On the contrary, they think for themselves more than the average voter, probably more than the average Democratic voter. Believe me. I've been a leftie/progressive/Red for decades . These are my peeps.

The Ultra-Left's number one dogmatic principle is anti-Democratic Party. They are not all wrong in criticizing Democrats , especially Blue Dogs. They recite the 60's radical slogan that Democrats and Republicans are Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum ( I recall first hearing that in 1968 from an SDS er, Students for a Democratic Society). However, they almost never criticize Republicans. They ignore the elephant in the room , and therefore tell half-truths constantly. They ignore the important differences between Dems and Reps. They are obsessed with  criticizing Dems. It's not a personality cult. It's constantly proving their radicalness by distinguishing themselves from "Liberals." What they love about Bernie is that he's "independent " from Dems (not).

See the sarcastic song "Love me; I'm a liberal." It's their anthem .
