Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

not the word genocide, that's for sure.
A lot of israhell has the right to defend itself! and Hamas bad!
Because he's said multiple times that that word should instead be attributed by the international court of justice
https://www.cnn.com/2024/05/09/politics/video/israel-genocide-bernie-sanders-collins-source-digvid
Its intentional that he doesn't say genocide, because its a powerful legal word and he believes its not his place to apply it - however his stance and his actions are clear - abundantly clear - latching onto this one point, that he explicitly has a rationale for is silly at best, and deceptive at worst.
IDC about his BS laughable explanation.
So you care about what he dosent say, but dont care about what he actually says and does.
Got it.
This book should fulfill all your goals - it doesn't leave a single word unsaid: https://shop.merriam-webster.com/products/websters-third-new-international-dictionary-unabridged?_pos=1&_fid=95a7efe7f&_ss=c
those are two different things. Not a difficult concept to grasp. Say one thing and do another, that's what politicians do.
This US imperialist warmonger fake leftists is no different.
And I certainly do care that he DID say shitrael has the right to defend itself over and over again.
You’re a one note clown. Your entire post history is trying to shit on AOC and Bernie. Sorry for whatever shithole you come from. 🌻🌻🌻
LOL you're the shithole banana republic.
Nothing pleases me more than watching it go down in flames.
I'm from a civilised EU country with actual left wing politicians, I can only laugh at you lashing out like a frustrated toddler.
I do hope our politicians finally break ties with your cancer to the world country and let you rot like you deserve.
Bye now, don't cry to much.
Ok SHIT got em. Don't know how they could possibly recover.
They won't, the shithole is doomed and it's a marvelous thing
It's like you don't think that we already know our country is fucked.
That's not the problem.
Putting your hopes on that sell-out Sanders is, an obvious conclusion for anyone who sees through his empty words and virtue signaling. But apparently plenty people don't know that.
But you deal with it, I won't feel the consequences.
Lmao euroid makes sense. Enjoy learning Arabic
Enjoy learning to eat gras in your racist backward shithole
You've both mentioned the same "Israel has a right to defend itself" quote. I'd be curious to know when/where he said that.
I'd be curious why TF you can't look that up yourself in 2 seconds and ask a loaded question as to imply he didn't?
Because other people are reading this and the burden of proof is on you.
What you mean this what everyone can Google?
Just to make him out as the clown he is:

He'll still be the liberal darling as long as he doesn't challenge their right wing world view.
