Watch Bernie refuse to endorse a ceasefire as thousands and thousands of children die in screaming burning agony. Right now there are certainly hundreds of children buried under rubble dying of thirst. They are terrified and alone and no one will help them and they will scream and cry and beg for days until they finally die. That's what Bernie supports under Biden, and what you support by voting for him.
I bet some of them saw their parents die before they were buried. I bet some of them saw friends, siblings, cousins, and neighbors die too. Right now they can probably smell the burning stinking rot of unburied corpses lit on fire by white phosphorous, and all they can think of is how hungry they are because they were starving before they were buried under rubble. If you support this you are my enemy.
He has proven to me that he is a spineless liberal and I regret ever voting for him. He's worthless like all social democrats.
Jesus Christ, you're far down the tankie hole. You realize socialism is an economic ideology, yes? Has nothing to do with Gaza, capitalism doesn't even need Israel to survive in any way. Support for Israel has nothing to do with liberalism please stop reading the party line. In fact by showing his lack of foreign policy skills Bernie has just showed us that he's even more of a socialist then we thought /s.
Regardless you showed yourself as politically illiterate as soon as you carted out the age old "social fascist" line for social democrats. Which again, Bernie isn't even a social democrat, no matter how much you larpers want him to be so you have an excuse to throw your vote away on the SPA or Green Party like that's worked at all the past century.
Imperialism is the highest stage of capitalism. Have you ever read, like, anything written by a communist?
If Bernie isn't a social democrat, why is he supporting Israel's genocide?
These things are completely separate. You can be a fascist Zionist and support it, you can be a Liberal Democrat and support it, you can even be a socialist Zionist like Albert Einstein. Zionism and Socialism are not mutually exclusive.
That's not even mentioning that just recently Bernie put out a statement condemning the actions of Israel
Yes I've read plenty written by communists, I've been a member of a party for fucks sake. But trotting out slogans like "Imperialism is the highest stage of capitalism" is absolutely not a substitution for actual political analysis, otherwise Capital would've been a book of catchy chants. Not all imperialism happens because of capitalism, to act like it does would heavily discount the decades of ideological reasoning that's made Christian extremists in the US prop up Zionism within the Republicans and the geopolitical reasoning that's propped it up with the Neoliberal wing of Democrats and its long dead Republican brother in the Republican Neo-Con wing.
Ultimately, yeah, labor Zionism totally exists. It is entirely possible for Marxists to make a rightist error and support empire. History is full of examples!
I'm going to keep calling him a liberal until he calls for a ceasefire because in policy terms he is behaving indistinguishably from the rest of the Democrats.
The bare minimum is calling for a ceasefire. The DSA did it. The Squad did it? Why can't he?
