Comment on It's unacceptable that people like Jeff Bezos exist.

You should Google “Bernie Sanders” so that you don’t look quite so ridiculous making absurdly wrong claims in the future. You’re embarrassing yourself.

He grew up in Israel and still defends its right to exist (which inherently requires existing on top of a racial underclass) and brutally repress indigenous anticolonial uprisings. That’s what he’s saying every time he says “of course Israel has a right to defend itself, but…”

I don’t need to Google shit, I’ve followed him for years and I know what he is.

    I said “grew up”, not “born and raised”. Though I guess it was a few months so I was still overstating it, sorry about that. But the point remains: it helps to provide context for his attempts to justify the illegal occupation’s continued existence.
