One of the only US politicians that gives a shit about American citizens
God I wish he were our President
Ain’t nothin but a g thing
It’s a shame Bernie stayed silent for so long on the genocide Israel is committing. A lifetime of doing good and it gets tarnished at the end.
The fuck are you talking about
Here’s another clip of him from later
Here’s from 4 years ago, during a time of relative peace
Here’s him from 1988 advocating for conditioning military aid (to Arab countries as well as to Israel) on a commitment to the peace process
I was thinking the same thing, good that he eventually shifted his position but he toed the biden line for months
Yeah it’s crazy how you can’t make even the slightest criticism of a Democrat without getting downvoted and called a bot or fascist. I love Bernie but this is the one thing that really made me sour on him because I had such high expectations of him being one of the first people to come out and condemn the Genocide.
How dare they call me a fascist just because I spread false talking points written by fascists
So there are multiple tactics to disrupt a social network; I kind of suspect that the propaganda trolls on Lemmy are shifting their tactics from “Genocide Joe” “I’m not voting” and other stuff that they were getting unanimously yelled at for, and into just posting generally unpleasant stuff that turns people off from participating and drowns out human conversation.
Just pure hostility can serve this purpose, but it also can draw attention from the mods, so I suspect that a chorus of aggressively wrong stuff like “Bernie isn’t good on Israel and I’m so mad about it” “How dare you disagree with me on that you can’t stand the slightest criticism” and other arguments that are just kind of off-putting because of their blatant wrongness and impossibility to engage with productively, but not technically rule-breaking in any way, are the new tactic.
There is criticism about Biden and Hillary everywhere. There is even criticism on Obama.
Nobody will defend Schumer or Pelosi.
What Democrats can’t I criticize because all of those, the most prominent leaders of the party nobody will defend if I attack
Fuck Biden, Clinton x2, Schumer, Pelosi and fuck it, fuck Pete too for good measure
Let’s see how many downvotes I get.
