My how the world has changed.

It just changes more slowly than we'd like.

Consider these recent headlines:

TheWeek: Bernie Sanders has conquered the Democratic Party

Politico: How the Bernie Wing Won the Democratic Primaries

NYMagazine: Bernie Sanders Is Quietly Building a Digital Media Empire

Whether you agree with those articles or not, the fact is that the way Bernie and his supporters are being reported has totally flipped, and this hasn't happened because Bernie and his crew have changed their agenda.

Let's go back two years and look at how the media viewed those stubborn Bernie Bros.

May 18, 2016, DailyBanter: Bernie Sanders Refuses To Admit There's a Problem With His Fanatical Supporters

May 18, WashPost: Why the Sanders movement is just about dead

May 19, TheNation: Bernie Sanders Is Hurting Himself by Playing the Victim

June 3, NYTimes: Bernie’s Last Stand

June 8, TheSlate: Among the dead-enders in Bernieworld, Sanders is still the next president and Clinton is a fate worse than Trump

June 13, PoliticsCentral: Diehard Sanders supporters drifting away from political reality

July 12, NBC: The Bernie Sanders Revolution Is Dead, Long Live the Revolution

July 28, Politico: Hillary donors to Bernie supporters: Shut up

Two years ago you Bernie Bros were crazy, violent, detached from reality, and most of all doomed to irrelevance.

Even as late as last July, Joy Reid was still using the term "dead-ender" when referring to Bernie supporters.

Sanders dead enders who asserted that Trump was a better option than Her will discover that irony is in fact *not dead. https://t.co/YbJFnwePPt — Joy Reid (@JoyAnnReid) July 16, 2017

There's just one problem for Joy - people were starting to use "dead-ender" to refer to Joy and her crew.

Hillary Dead-Enders Are As Dumb As Science-Deniers

HILLARY DEAD-ENDERS CONDEMN BERNIE SANDERS APPEARANCE AT WOMEN’S EVENT

Remember Verrit, the website for Hillary Clinton superfans? It launched last September.

This is the headline from February: The Pro-Hillary Site Nobody Asked for or Used Is Rebooting

Hillary and her supporters were always about identity and personality.

Bernie and his supporters were always about policy and ideas.

Or to put it another way...

The movement that Bernie started is bigger than Bernie. Her, on the other hand, is about nothing but Her.

That is why Bernie Bros are now more popular than ever, while Hillary fans are just bitter.

Bernie supporters have something to fight for. Hillary fans only have someone.
