Dont be disingenuous. If the person who got the most votes doesnt win were not talking about democracy. Same with the electoral college. If the dem party wants to destroy itself by ignoring its voters they can try to fuck over the winner with the most votes/delegates and see what happens.
We don't live in a democracy though, and neither party is trying to model a true democracy in candidate selection.
Would the Dem party picking someone other than the candidate with a plurality of the votes do irreprable harm? Probably. But people make dumb choices all the time and the rules that everyone agreed to at the start, including Sanders, are the process as it stands. Sanders' team even had a far larger say in the process than any progressive candidate basically ever.
It may not be a bad idea to let the dem party crash and burn and let the progressives take over. Nancy, chuck and everyone else have to go.
Says the person who clearly doesn't understand just how many people will get fucking steamrolled with 4 more years of Trump, which will almost certainly include another SCOTUS appointment and probably allow for some really fucked up voter laws getting enacted to ensure GOP rule far beyond.
Finding the broken, antiquated, and unfair rules of the Dem party disgusting is one thing. Acting like its remotely equivolent to the other party who actively want to suppress votes and claim dictatorial powers of the POTUS when they have the office must take some real galaxy brain bullshit rationale.
