    1. @Oasis5 At least he’s willing to pay the tax that none of corrupt America wants to pay how about that???

  1. What were they protesting… war? inequality? racism? corporate greed? climate change? whaling? fracking?…. nope!… cheese!

    1. @Razib Baral JOY These are definitely not Bernie Bros. These are female activists from the fringe animal rights group Direct Action Everywhere (DxE). The group has heavily targeted the Bernie campaign for simply saying that Americans like bacon. The group’s stated goal is to stop the commodification of animals. They attempt to disrupt farms, grocery stores, and food suppliers, but also target other animal rights groups such as PETA and vegans who they view as too soft on meat-eaters. Since 2016, they have actively targeted US Presidential campaigns with notable disruptions at Biden, Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, Chris Christie, Carly Fiorina, and John Kasich events. They have had multiple run-ins with US Secret Service, the FBI, as well as private security for religious leaders such as the Pope and the Dalai Lama. They have a number of international chapters, but are most heavily concentrated in California. Many former members refer to the group as a cult and accuse it of harboring sexual predators and sexually abusing members. They are highly secretive about their funding, but some of it has been traced back to shadowy overseas organizations. While I understand your quick judgement to label them as Bernie supporters, this is far from the truth. This organization is well outside the big tents of American politics.

    2. @electricpens I understand but they don’t realize that it is impossible to separate Americans from cheese, budgers and soda.

    3. @Razib Baral JOY I apologize, but I very much disagree. I think the meteoric rise of BYND last year and the attempts of multiple fast food chains to purchase Impossible Meats shows a ridiculous demand for non-animal based products. Look at how successful these products are even in the corn belt. Unfortunately, there are not enough options to invest in. The demand for meat and dairy has never been higher. I’m not trying to argue that it’s going away any time soon, I’m simply saying the demand for non-meat is much more popular than I imagined and growing faster than many ever expected. Flavored seltzer dominates the soda aisle in facings and the number of lactose intolerant Americans keeps growing. The American Grocery is vastly in flux. And absolutely zero percent of this change is due to animal rights activists. However, every grocery aisle is reflecting changes that solidify their belief. The error is in thinking their belief is what’s causing the change, instead of realizing that people simply want to be healthier and more ecologically neutral. Animal rights is distant thought. The consumer is making the changes, not the milk Stalinists.

    4. Fracking did make the US oil independent!! If we weren’t oil independent we would be paying 2 or 3 more dollars a gallon at the gas pump right now because of this Coronavirus!!

    1. @GoldenArrow This group has protested numerous Bernie events also. They are not violent, they’re nudists. The purpose is to make the Democratic Party look like a joke. #TrumpRussia #AnythingIsPossible #NothingIsReal

    2. @GoldenArrow What exactly is it that Trump supporters are doing that’s so bad? Putting nooses around people’s necks and screaming, “This is MAGA country!”? 😆

      You’re right about Bernie supporters being violent, though. They’re attacking people with sticks and bike locks, while waiving the communist flag.

    1. Direct Action Everywhere (DxE) animal rights activists chanted “let dairy die” and tried to expose their breasts in order to disrupt a Joe Biden political rally in Los Angeles late Tuesday evening. The group’s stated goal is to stop the commodification of animals. They attempt to disrupt farms, grocery stores, and food suppliers, but also target other animal rights groups such as PETA and vegans who they view as too soft on meat-eaters. Since 2016, they have actively targeted US Presidential campaigns with notable disruptions at Biden, Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, Chris Christie, Carly Fiorina, and John Kasich events. They have had multiple run-ins with US Secret Service, the FBI, as well as private security for religious leaders such as the Pope and the Dalai Lama. They have a number of international chapters, but are most heavily concentrated in California. Many former members refer to the group as a cult and accuse it of harboring sexual predators and sexually abusing members. They are highly secretive about their funding, but some of it has been traced back to shadowy overseas organizations.

    2. They didn’t tell you much because the media is trying to cover the fact that these were wacko democrats opposing the use of dairy products……..yeah.

    3. @dash riprock I feel pretty comfortable with your “wacko” descriptor, but balk at calling them Democrats. In their latest political ‘Roadmap 2055,’ they talk about targeting “conservative defectors” on a crusade for animal-human equal rights. That’s a politics well outside the big tents in the US.

  2. Scary? They were about to show us their ta-tas. If that’s scary, Brian Williams, might I direct your attention to: #SyrianCivilWar #FoxNews #HotPockets

    1. There are THOUSANDS of videos of Joe biden sniffing children, groping children, touching their genitals, and kissing babies on the mouth, THOUSANDS, LITERALLY THOUSANDS. could you imagine if this guy wasn’t a democrat what the MSM would be saying about him?

  3. What’s America coming to when anti-Dairy activists storm a political stage?
    How did cow hatred reach this level?
