I loved Bernie in 2016 and 2020, Bernie and M4A were big reasons I moved leftward, but I'm disappointed by how big of a tankie Bernie has been about Israel. His far left online supporters have infected his brain with fascist ideas like having news coverage unfairly report how many Palestinians have died. I first got hints of his redfash Marxism when he wanted to abandoned the women of Afghanistan by saying the US should end the forever war, but forever war = forever equal rights.
Anybody else taken back by how far left Bernie is on Foreign policy? I'm kinda glad he lost now ngl
Bernie? A tankie? /irony, I hope
This whole thread is huge on the irony. The prevailing sentiment here is that Bernie betrayed the ideals he once represented (not for the first time, he had already approved bombing Yugoslavia and the crime bill that started mass incarceration), and if anyone here thinks Bernie is too far left, they're certainly lost.
I just re-read the post, I see that my reading comprehension had temporarily deserted me. Thank u for ur help. :)
I'M a tankie and that's just stolen valor. >:c
