The word ‘holocaust’ typically refers to Nazi mass murder programs in WWII. Sanders is absolutely not a denier of that. The more general word you want here is ‘genocide’.

But on that, Sanders has been a VERY outspoken critic of the Isreali government’s genocide in Gaza and the absurd financial support the US provides for it.

He did however support the Afghanistan war and didnt vote against it and voted for interventions into Bosnia, which the US went on to use depleted uranium shells and kill a bunch of civillians with. The mans personally voted for 2 interventions that killed millions of innocent people and what, we're supposed to become bernie bros because he happened to this time vote for the right side?

No thanks.

If you want a slimy and corrupt US politician to rage about, there’s no shortage to pick from, so it’s honestly weird that you’re throwing a fit over the one who is actually trying to help people.

Hes as shit as the rest of them.
