That was something.
Isn't this funded by that SuperPac that is spending lots of money on astroturfers? You can't try to ironically call yourself the establishment when you actually are. This left a bad taste in my mouth.
The other videos by this company are good, but this feels so forced.
Edit: Joke went over my head. Got corrected later! Video is good and funny. (Even though I disagree with a couple of points in the video, but that's neither here nor there)

Love the comments:

This isn't an /r/politics comments section. Should probably source your accusation.

That was pretty good as far as super PAC ads go
It says so at the start of the video....

Yes, they're a bunch of shills. Like every person not voting for Bernie.
to be fair they said it themselves
Establishment animators and paid shills TomoNews say it's over for Bernie Sanders
tongue in cheek has lost all meaning
This is embarrassing

It's weird, I spend so much time on the internet, and the only place I see Hillary support is on Neogaf. I don't know a single person irl that supports her. It just seemed weird that she has so many supporters and I am oblivious to them.

Like are they actually kidding about being paid for by correct the record?

Best porno I've seen in years.
Don't put words in my mouth. I would vote for Clinton if I lived in the US. I'm saying this video does more harm than good. If you support something, criticise the bad that comes from it to help it improve.
It's a joke from a place that has nothing to do with a campaign or a superpac. maybe comedy doesn't exist in your country?

has the democratic voter base ever been this nasty towards each other? i don't recall the split between candidate supporters being this bad before tbh.
I just find it an odd notion for you to look for any malicious intent in one of their videos, when essentially every video they make is to stir controversy. You can't have it both ways and say you enjoy their content otherwise. That is hypocritical.
wait so the video isn't paid for by the Correct the Record? If that is the case then it's fine and yeah, quite funny. But why is that disclaimer at the start of the video?
Actually this year is light as fuck, 1968 actually had people SHOT at the Democratic national convention
One of the main reasons there is super delegates as a matter of fact

There was this one time in 1968...
I should have clarified. I did find it funny, but the fact that a Superpac may have payed for it left a bad taste in my mouth. I dunno, if that is the case it kind of ruins the joke?
Sorry for all the vicious attacks everyone! Bout to circle jerk on Reddit!
Also, I've never actually been on Reddit, only here. So I've never really experienced the kind of 'Bernie Bros' displayed in this video. Considering the response, it does seem to be a good parody of that. I've only really spoken with my friends and never come across aggressive online behaviour from his supporters, another reason I wasn't a fan of the video. But obviously I just haven't been to the right places. Sorry!
Because it's a joke since a ton of people on Reddit and Twitter have blamed them for anything negative against Sanders or positive for Clinton. It's *clearly* a joke with the line below it

No! Please be salty! Please!
Ok. I thought the joke was that they *had* payed for it and were trying to be *ironic* about it. Which is a mistake on my part. Sorry for not getting! It is quite funny then.

just read about that. god damn....and they were facing down Nixon too back then
...this time it's Trump....beautiful.
Yep. Exact same verification I was able to find
That just says that it was a funded video, not that the funding organization has been linked to astroturfing.
Salt is for got dang pretzels.. do I look like a pretzel to you?!
All of their videos are focused though. This one is focused on the blinders that Sanders fans put on themselves that will allow them to be completely shocked if he doesn't win, despite it not looking like a sure shot to most others.

This is hilarious and amazing. That r/politics imagery lol
Right but I feel like this one was so mean Like the college humor video was hilarious because it felt like they were poking fun at the whole thing rather than hammering it like this video.

Paid for by Correct the Record.

I wonder how much they paid for this? Also wonder if it's part of that expensive online push back SuperPACs are planning for Hillary.

You know that was a joke, right?
Or it was intended to look like a joke but was actually paid for by Correct the Record?
