The fuck is this post and comments? Bernie is the realest G in US congress for decades and counting. There aren't even any statements against him here, just memes, did the boomers set up a shame bot network?
G as in genocider, right?
Bernie was willing to vote down the bipartisan funding bill recently because it included additional military funding to Israel. He stood on the Senate Floor and put up giant printout images of women and children starving and begging to receive water from behind a metal barricade. Bernie is the realest person you've never met. Despite being Jewish, he is the single person who speaks out the most against this atrocity in all of Congress.
I know you didn't mean any harm by this but it is antisemitic to assume that all Jews do, or should, or would be expected to, support Israel. It's not true, it has never been true, and the only people who claim it is true are racists.
That's exactly why I said it, though? Bernie is an example of a high standard we should hold all people to. Calling me antisemitic for that makes you seem like an Israeli apologist.
Work on your reading comprehension, FFS.
All I'm saying is, due to his self identified ethnicity and as a democratically elected politician, he has more to lose as a Jewish Person than almost any other democrat in congress. That matters. We're allowed to talk about that.
I said work on your reading comprehension, not dig yourself a deeper hole.
You think you’re talking to Zionists here? That’s just sad
If it walks like a duck.
The people saying the illegitimate settler-colonial Zionist entity is committing a genocide are secret Zionists? Wild strat
This person understands libs. Thank you for your service! o7
Death to Israel, lib
Your reading comprehension is really very bad. You should work on it instead of embarrassing yourself like this.
