I don’t know what surprises me more, this narcissistic side of Sanders or the beer hall putsch side of his supporters. A war of personality cults really isn’t what we should be involved in if we want to continue to pretend to a rational and civilized culture.

But you seem to be saying that because of this, the cult of Bernie has no significance. I disagree and the main reason is the difference in qualification. Bernie has slogans and all the trappings of a cult hero but isn’t too well informed about the things he shouts most about and the things he scapegoats.
I will vote for Clinton with reservations, as will many other people. I disagree with some of her policies. That’s hardly evidence of hero worship and the only evidence for the validity of your assertion seems to be the assertion itself.
