As Twitchy reported, Rep. Rashida Tlaib led the crowd at a Bernie Sanders rally Friday night in booing Hillary Clinton after Clinton had let loose some of her “authentic, unvarnished views” on Sanders, such as that “nobody likes him, nobody wants to work with him, he got nothing done.”

We joke about Bernie Bros all the time, but Sanders’ really does have a young, white, male following with some “truly radical” staffers mixed in.

As we noted in the previous post, Center for American Progress President Neera Tanden said the spectacle sadly reminded her of “Lock her up!” chants at the 2016 Democratic convention. But now she’s expanded her analysis to claim that the booing was just another example of white male rage and misogyny.

Even CNN reports that it was Tlaib who led the booing and got it started:

And the three people we see on stage leading the boos are Reps. Tlaib, Pramila Jayapal, and Ilhan Omar … not exactly your average white males.

What I love about incidents like this – the booing of Hillary at a Sanders rally – is example after example of white male rage and misogyny. https://t.co/30PUxEhtqI — Neera Tanden (@neeratanden) February 1, 2020

Holy hell you really are turning an incident with a stage full of women of colour into white male identity politics. You're really trying to do that and you don't care at all about how damaging that is to real claims of misogyny. You have nothing left. Not a shred of integrity. — Hilary Agro ? (@hilaryagro) February 1, 2020

In real time we’re watching the weaponization of identity politics against women of color—who’ve been transformed into “white males”—in the service of defending a white woman. Perfect encapsulation of the vapid, uninspiring dead-end of neoliberal politics. — Taryn Jay ? (@FeralHogs420) February 1, 2020

You have reached yet one more level of beclowning.

Start wearing the nose and the wig, so people will be warned. — Capt. Anton Zilwicki, RMN (@antonzilwicky54) February 1, 2020
