Be wary, thee that enters this comment section.
Fuck you Bernie and the rest of the Democrat puppets
Republican puppets are dismantling the country but Democrats are the do nothing party that allows the fascism to continue
I dont rellay get the Bernie hate. He is one of very very few politicians actually doing something: rile up a base to vote against Trump and Republicans. What exactly do you think he should be doing?
he's become a shill that's using his reputation to guide people back into a party that has done nothing to counter trump and supports the genocide.
Yes, Democrats bad. We get it. What's your solution for that other than the Glorious Revolution™ that most of us disabled and/or living in poverty won't survive.
Not voting for the Democrats really showed them for supporting the genocide. Bet they reversed course on tha- Oh... You mean they decided that Gaza wasn't the problem and instead it was their support of trans people like me? Damn...
Trans and disabled sounds like 2 checkmarks on the maga checklist.
It's a shame that you couldn't see that Gaza is the line. You decided genocide against innocent people wasn't a disqualifier and now you cry about your own impending doom while mocking your would be allies.
LMAO. You reap what you sow, fool.
Both MAGA and these so-called "allies" want me dead at the end of the day. We're just expected to starve to death when Amerikkka collapses or the people finally rise up.
I know full well how horrific what Israel is doing is. But there was no anti-genocide option on the ballot in 2024. There was no way that Jill Stein or whoever was going to get enough votes to win. Hell, most of Stein's supporters I talked to their best case scenario was getting to 5% for debate access and federal funds next go round. Any that I confronted about Gaza not having 4 years just shrugged and said some variation of "better than voting for a genocide" How exactly? Because they didn't have to sacrifice their ideological purity?
Also, Jill Stein is just as corrupted by Russian money as all the Republican Party leadership are. She just exists to steal Dem votes.

Antigenocide was absolutely on the ballot, but like the others you tell yourself the stories of impossibility that the duopoly wants you to believe.
So you chose the people that promised Roe v Wade would become law for 50+ years and everytime they have the ability to do so they shrug their shoulders and say "Meh."
Or maybe the same allies who allow the parliamentarian to arbitrarily shut down the will of the people.
Or maybe it's the same people who get you to "rally against the oligarchy" that will tell you to fall in line for the next corporate democrat who is actually a republican with a mask on.
Harris was the perfect candidate to illustrate the willing ineptitude of the democrats, and people looked at her like she was going to be some kind of savior.
Change doesn't happen by doing the same thing over and over again. The only difference Harris really offered from Trump was facade and rhetoric. The democrats had 4 years to do something to help people and motivate votes their way. They instead chose genocide. All the money they sent could have been used to help people like you and I, but they chose death.
They are not allies, and you will you never achieve any meaningful change or progress with them holding the reigns. They have proven this over and over again.
Some historical context for you.
Just in case you don't read or comprehend the article here is a TL;DR
Third party is dead in the US without changes to the voting process.
And just to be more clear: You, and anyone else who voted third party essentially voted for Trump. And if you didn't vote you voted for Trump as well.
if you didn’t vote you voted
the mental gymnastics inside one clause are incredible
If you don't understand how either not voting or voting third party equated to voting for Trump then I guess enjoy riding your moral high horse of superiority.

Yes, we already covered Democrats Bad. I agree. I hate them with a passion. Doesn't change that in a national electoral sense they are the only viable party at this moment to enact any kind of positive change. They are not and should never be the only option. But all people who talk like you do ever seem to offer as a solution is the "Glorious Revolution™" that hundreds of thousands if not millions of vulnerable people WILL die in because they never think about how those people are going to survive when food or medicine supply lines get disputed by fighting for the most fucking basic of examples.
They engage in this rhetoric because it's Magical Thinking that absolves them of having to do something they feel is icky and stains their ideological purity. It'll all be fixed when the Oppressed finally throw off their chains and eat the rich or whatever.

You "disqualified" everyone for not doing enough and left Palestine to the group who would be fine if all Arabic peoples were wiped out.
But I'm sure Palestinians are weeping thankfully about how you and yours voted.
Sounds less like caring about Palestinian innocents and more about performative righteousness and your personal image.
If Trump and maga appreciate your actions (and boy did they), it puts you on their side, imo.
Unfortunately it seems that your brain doesn't work, sir.
You seem to forget that the majority of the recent genocide of Palestinians was so far overseen by a democratic president.
Did you think voting for those same people would make it stop?

Trolling with anonymous input on a basis of moral superiority helps no one and makes you appear to be an agent sowing division. Just FYI, contributing nothing to the conversation, other than telling others they should be ashamed is bot behaviour.

he’s become a shill that’s using his reputation to guide people back into a party that has done nothing
You can accuse Sanders of Entryism to your heart's content and I won't raise more than an eyebrow. But the idea that Sanders is trying to guide liberals back to the liberal party is absurd. Democrats were always going to come home to the Democratic Party. If Sanders is guilty of trying to transform the party from the inside, that's a strategy at least as honorable as Trump's vision of transforming the Republican Party was vile.
But the sentiment is misplaced regardless. Sanders isn't going to find the big OFF button in the Democratic Party's genocide machine, because it doesn't exist. Trying to blame him for liberal endorsements of fascism at home is as foolhard as it would be to excuse him for his historical endorsements of Israel. He can hold all the rallies he wants, for whichever party he pleases. But this is ultimately outside of his hands and squarely in the hands of the American proletariat. They're running the Big Genocide Machine and only they can dismantle it.

He keeps saying that while presenting no plan to do anything about it. Are people still falling for it?
There is only really ever 1 solution for fascism, and Bernie will be executed if he says it out loud for treason. He's doing everything he possibly can to get the people riled up enough to realize it themselves without him giving the orders.

the U.S. was facing a moment of “extraordinary danger”
Good, the sooner it is gone, the better off the planet will be.
