Why is it unhealthy to be in touch with reality? If you like tilting at windmills, then be my guest. I prefer to be very sober about what is going on and what it's going to take to have actual change. Talking about whether Bernie could have won is as useful as talking about Star Trek vs. Star Wars. (Note: I think Bernie would have been an awesome president which is why I voted for him and campaigned for him.)
When I say unhealthy I am not talking about you individually but the impact on the outcome of the discourse. This particular moment isn't about proving who was right, though there is plenty of other places where that is needed, it is about integrating what we know so we can coalesce.
