My understanding of the term was along the lines of, "subset of Sanders supporters whose defining characteristic was being anti-Clinton rather than pro-progressive policy as evidenced by seeming more interested in tearing down the Democrats than opposing Trump/Republicans after the primary"

but i'll admit i tend to stay away from social media so i have no idea what was going on out there

Pretty much this, yes. That's what the term meant. I'm sure it got misused over time as Tony contends, but it was never intended to "paint all male Bernie supporters as misogynistic."

This is what it meant for like, five minutes. But it quickly got overused to the point that it's now in the same category of "useful" terms as SJW.

Thank you.

Dunno why none of these people admitting theyre not well-versed feel like clicking a link to see evidence of what Im talking about, and instead rely on their ideal assumption.

Also like I said above, as there are toxic supporters of literally everybody, so having a specific phrase for a specific subset of toxic Bernie fans is meaningless and dumb. You guys are lifelong internet users, think about it.
