That’s US politics as a whole. Ever since the first Trump presidency a blue MAGA has been forming in the democrat camp. They’ve taken over pretty much all representation online by now.
Bernie is also a victim of this by a similar left-lib MAGA forming around him.
I wouldn’t say those are Bernie supporters. They’re left of Bernie as you’ve noted.
Yet many left-libs are willing to throw theory out of the window just to have a chance to slightly nudge the democrats to the left. His supporters are willing to leave class consciousness and struggle behind for some crumps of concessions. Those left of Bernie who are not his supporters, don’t.

Except Bernie gets a ton of criticism from his left for his unwillingness to act on gaza.
The joke among Bernie supporters has always been “Bernie is the compromise”.
