    Interesting. Both in how people thought she was the most principled and moral, and that your ruler is Sanders. My rulers are Warren and AOC. Something about Sanders just kept me away from him. His supporters maybe?

      Took me a moment to realise you meant ruler as in measuring tape, and not ruler as in king.

      You’re not wrong that Sanders had some of the most toxic supporters. And still seemingly does. But there’s a lot of reasons for that. Part of it was that many of them just like the concept of him and were not supporters of him for any particular political stances. He was the candidate that the GOP focused on promoting the most, to divide and conquer left-leaning voters turning them against each other. Something Sanders himself didn’t want. But which worked in spades.

      Sanders the person I think is genuine and a great candidate. I would easily vote for him AOC or Warren on any given day.
