Anybody else regret voting for Bernie?
(hexbear.net)
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
He failed to grasp the utility and magnitude of his power base independent of the Democratic Party. When the moment called for him to fight, he blinked. Shame really, he could have had a legitimate shot at establishing something like a labor party, but demurred lest we fracture the base and elect trump… which is what happened anyway. Especially in ‘20, sure we got Biden but what difference did it make
