Let's not be fooled by voting. As Joey Stalin once said, "The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything."

But he calls for the kind of political revolution that leads to famines and concentration camps. At what point will "socialism" have done enough bad deeds that people can learn? How many does it have to be?

And who will be the last one to die for this wasteful, over and over again experiment?

LOL!

These people are trying to hate on Sanders for not going crazy over a foreign country that doesn't represent America.

Yeah, that's what "progressives" do! They worry about their country, instead of playing politics like this article is.

I'm sad I clicked on this garbage and gave it a page view.

If the only way to prevent further war is to bankrupt the nation by pursuing still more socialist ideas, then it doesn't matter how badly it fails in the long run; we'll have prevented war and maybe we have one or two left that don't end up destroying civilization but nobody really knows what that number is.

I don't see any other candidate up there who is anti-war and comes off as having integrity. Do I love the fact that he is Jewish? Not really. Might he pull a Noam Chomsky and betray us all? Of course.

Preventing future war is the only issue that matters at this point. The rest of the candidates are all clowns and will do whatever jew tells them to do. Sanders is perhaps the only one who can say no to them.

Bernie Sanders supported the last vote for the genocide against Gaza, he just talks that he is against wars and pretends he is a Socialist (just like Hollande in France). He will support wars in the Middle East if elected and he would put Israel's interest before American.

The bottom-line is he is just another pro-banker/pro-Zionist candidate that is trying to get all the left wing/fringe people to vote for him.

This is just another "change" campaign like Obama did in his first run. Both the Democrats and Republicans are beyond hope.

redikulous

Uh? He's an independent, he voted against the Patriot Act and against the War in Iraq. His speeches constantly mention breaking up the big banks. Take a look at his career contributions: https://www.opensecrets.org/politicians/contrib.php?cycle=Career&cid=n00000528&type=I

Who exactly would you vote for?

sadam029

Mike gravel, sadly he isn't running this time.

RedHawk

What is the point of all that career if he only voted for killing innocent civilians in Gaza just last year? To me supporting Israel rules him out.

I still havent decided who to vote for, but definitely not him or the Democratic or Republican candidate.

I might vote for the Libertarian Party.

nokilli

I missed that vote on Gaza. You are correct, that is deeply troubling.

shmegegy

are you shilling for white supremists on this sub? do you hope the label will stick and discredit the rest of the sub content? LOL.

just another pro-banker/pro-Zionist candidate

just another concern troll?

Flesh_Mechanic

I don't get it..if Bernie runs as an independent. Refusing super PAC money and most outside financial influence, how exactly is he a Zionist shill? I guess he could be independently for Zion. Wouldn't that be a trip, huh?

RedHawk

are you shilling for white supremists on this sub?

So anyone that opposes Israel and Zionism is a white supremacist ?

shmegegy

answering my question with a question smacks of avoidance. I tag you white supremist until I see otherwise.

same shit happened on reddit. the mods even copped to doing it to poison the sub.

shmegegy

it's not a conspiracy. it's OVERT that he supports israel.. jeez. do you have an agenda here?

RedHawk

I dont have an agenda, many people do not know that he is a proud supporter of Israel, he even refused to greet Netanyahu in congress.

His whole "act" that he is anti-Israel is a conspiracy, I am glad you did not fall for it. But plenty of people are falling for it.

shmegegy

he doesn't 'act' anti-israel. where did you get that impression? he's a secular jew, and he's in good company with a majority of israelis that don't support Netanyahu.

cinderblock

Pesky facts.

RedHawk

Did you read the article ? He supported the vote for last Israeli regime genocide against Gaza (lead by Netanyahu), and then he pretends he is against Netanyahu.

The bottom line with Zionists like Bernie Sanders is that he is no different from Netanyahu or any other supporter of racist and fascist movements like Zionism.

shmegegy

I don't see it as inconsistent, or nearly a conspiracy theory. He overtly supports the reaction to Gaza rocketing and tunnel attacks.. Show me where he is on record supporting genocide or any ethnic group.. it's a ridiculous claim, and I can only think you have an agenda here by posting this in this sub.

You are calling Sanders a fascist genocide supporter.. wow. In r/conspiracy. seems a bit desperate to me.

RedHawk

I am calling Bernie Sanders a supporter of Zionism, a racist and fascist movement that supports the right of a piece of land based on the genetics of their mother (in this case Jewish).

Yes, that is racism. And anyone that supports Israel is a racist and participating in the genocide of the Palestinian people.

shmegegy

so zionism = fascism in your world. how simple. is that the conspriacy? do you think he's a secret hitler in disguise?

gryph0n

He never said that Zionism= fascism but isreal is based on (imho) a system that should not exist. The Palestinians occupied this area and are now being attacked for owning that area Isreal wishes to set up an only Jewish State. This kind of reminds me of the force that moved them. The more troubling thing for me is that there is large support for this very militaristic country in the United States.
