We spoke to Bernie Sanders about alleged health insurance CEO shooter Luigi Mangione, the crisis of for-profit health care in America, why only a mass movement can win Medicare for All, and how to fight the growing share of working-class votes for the Right.

especially when the "mass" is 147 grains of jacketed hollow point and the "movement" is 1000 feet per second

Here comes Sanders to sheepdog the angry masses back to the Democrat Party grave yard again yippeee!

[-] newmou@hexbear.net 62 points 10 months ago

Oh like the one you assimilated into the Democratic Party and killed off

And you're standing in the way of it old man, sit down and shut up

Let me just say this: it goes without saying that killing anybody — this guy happened to be a father of two kids. You don’t kill people. It’s abhorrent. I condemn it wholeheartedly. It was a terrible act.

Yeah that's what I thought you media trained dog, keep playing teacher's pet

You don't kill people. It's abhorrent.

Remember when flattened-bernie refused to call for even a ceasefire in Palestine? I guess he, like all the anglo-burn politicians, doesn't see Palestinians as people

coming from the guy who won't name the genocide in Palestine, this shit is insulting

probably could have been built over the last 4 to 8 years if he hadn't capitulated to the democratic party and had broken away from them to form a workers party at the height of his popularity

Could have, Bernie

[-] Z_Poster365@hexbear.net 38 points 10 months ago

How many people have died in that time frame because Bernie failed and capitulated to democrats? Tens of thousands? Hundreds of thousands?

This rich old fuck is fine biding his time for eternity, he has no urgency

[-] AOCapitulator@hexbear.net 26 points 10 months ago

I truly wish he was just evil instead, its so painful seeing him say shit like this and be useless

[-] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 35 points 10 months ago

So why are you working so hard to prevent a mass movement? Just retire already your legacy is already ruined

The sheepdog continues to bark long after the flock has learned they can ignore him

[-] plinky@hexbear.net 33 points 10 months ago

Is killing people only abhorrent if you don't use f35 gun made in vermont?

[-] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 32 points 10 months ago

You had a mass movement in 2016 and rolled over for Killary, your good friend Joe Biden, and Kopmala.

"Health CEOs" are fair enough, but libs have some weird Voldemort hangup calling out the shareholders.

[-] Z_Poster365@hexbear.net 23 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Even the peasant bean counters and pencil pushers of the health insurance industry are a parasitic leech on society and need to be reassigned to socially useful work

[-] EatPotatoes@hexbear.net 4 points 10 months ago

That's fair enough, but Americans are bringing in this cancerous "upper and lower, not left or right" rhetoric that I am convinced is a psyop to take the class consciousness and cool with meagre reformism. Not even like the Bismark health reforms, but "yay, we don't have to pay for anaesthetic while covered, terrorism rules" reformism.

Tell me what I am saying it is just clinical depression. But the left is in no way ready for this and this whole thing is going to be co-opted by the far right.

[-] miz@hexbear.net 24 points 10 months ago

I want for Bernie what he is willing to tolerate visited upon Palestinian children

[-] Xiisadaddy@lemmygrad.ml 22 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

[-] x87_floatingpoint@hexbear.net 20 points 10 months ago

flattened-bernie

Why does anyone still care what the guy has to say?

[-] Hohsia@hexbear.net 19 points 10 months ago

Silly proles, you don’t kill people. The US army kills people

And that’s totally different!

[-] BigBoyKarlLiebknecht@hexbear.net 18 points 10 months ago

Next year will be the 10th anniversary of this succ dem announcing his presidential run, 10 years of him demonstrating more and more that he’s objectively the left wing of and so on and so onflattened-bernie
