Bernie and Yang both inspire young people in the US, both fair best against Trump in the polls for when it counts, and most importantly have the only fearless organized supporters that know how to use the internet and don't mind saying mean things online

I recently stopped following all journalists on Twitter because I was just getting really tired of all of it, plus it was a constant distraction where I felt I had to check Twitter all the time
