Someone sent me the video of Bernie's hour-long town hall in Wisconsin

25. I think he's trying to reach out to a certain segment.

There is a group of white males who voted for economic reasons, first. I had one of them on my Facebook so I got to see all of his responses to the "WhiteLash" comments that were going on after the election. He kept saying it wasn't about race.

I could tell he was following me because he was liking all my posts that were not political. And I was supportive of the ones that involved his family. He had a daughter who was obviously, ethnic. But, when he posted a comment about bringing guns to a restaurant in order to protect his family, I decided to unfollow him, but accidentally unfriended him. It was late at night. No harm done.

But, yes, there are some white men who are living in red communities who find agreement with the racists in the area based on economic issues. They might not be racist by definition, but they voted for Trump because they were caught in that right-wing echo chamber.

However, Bernie should know better. That echo chamber is sustained by white social mores that believe in white dominance. If he does not accept that, then he loses real estate in his credibility factor.
