I mean, for one, it finally got people to think about policy in a meaningful way, even if it was subverted by ... the kind of shit that has doomed more progressive ideas in the end

but it was the worst because it's started this perpetual re-litigation of the 2016 election.

Bernie only happened because Hillary was SHIT and the Democratic Party thought they were the Republican Party.

(actually, the Republican Party thought they were the Republican Party, too. Their party crasher got all the votes.)
