I loved Bernie in 2016 and 2020, Bernie and M4A were big reasons I moved leftward, but I’m disappointed by how big of a tankie Bernie has been about Israel. His far left online supporters have infected his brain with fascist ideas like having news coverage unfairly report how many Palestinians have died. I first got hints of his redfash Marxism when he wanted to abandoned the women of Afghanistan by saying the US should end the forever war, but forever war = forever equal rights.
Anybody else taken back by how far left Bernie is on Foreign policy? I’m kinda glad he lost now ngl
my point back then was that
is dumb, that a socdem is not a socialist, and that social democracy is the moderate wing of fascism.
It’s funny because at that point in time I read Bourgeois and Proletarian Democracy by Lenin and it kinda went over my head because you bet I was glued to my monitor paying close attention to Bernie’s campaign. At least I have a feeling of comradeship with all my fellow naive dogooders who got burned at that time too, and I remember enough of the insanity from that time that I still go on deranged rants about Warren supporters.
