If only Democrats had the stones to do this.

      Why do you post so much about US politics while being so ignorant about them?

      Are you aware that Bernie Sanders is anti genocide and is one of the only US politicians bringing up legislation against providing Israel with weapons and denouncing the genocide there?

      If there would be any US politician I would expect you to support it would be him, but you’re just talking uninformed shit. Why?

        LOL
        As I explained, he only does these things when he’s absolutely sure they will fail.
        overwhelmingly
        He has NEVER denounced the genocide.
        He deliberately refuses to call it that and gets angry when asked to do it.
        He NEVER called for a ceasefire.
        He NEVER misses a chance to say Israel has the right to defend itself tho.
        And NEVER uses the word Israel but “the Netanyahoo government” also deliberate.
        I can tell you what he did vote for, recognising Jerusalem as the capital of the genociders.

        Who’s ignorant here?

          Who are you to say he only does things that he knows will fail? What is your better solution? To never try a single thing and stay silent? Criticize them so every Joe Rogan and Tankie shithead can parrot the same complaints and get yet another fascist elected?

          His efforts are leagues beyond what most other American and European politicians have done and he has been consistent.

          If any change for the better is going to happen in this world, it’s not going to be chasing some perfectionist idealism that will never move beyond forum arguments and Marxist circle-jerks.

          In the meantime, I’m going to support people like Bernie, who may be imperfect, but are a hell of a lot better than Trump and fascist authoritarians.

          Good luck with your… whatever it is you support. Hard to tell.
