  Also Bernie Sanders:

  “Cruel and illegal war on Gaza must end, we must block arms sales to Israel”

  You are not helping your cause with bullshit. Unless your goal is to disrupt things.

  Honest question, is his record on palestine mixed? He’s made a lot of pro palestine comments but if there’s nuance to whether he’s supported them, or where he’s drawn the line I’d be interested to know about it

    For the sake of being clear, Bernie has criticized Israel very explicitly and has condemned their violence more than the vast majority of US politicians, please don’t just take what that random guy said at face value.

    Its entirely possible Bernie has a mixed record on Palestine or isn’t a perfect representative (I’d need to go look at primary sources and ideally voting records), but the person who left that comment is likely just expressing their anger at feeling like there’s not more they can do to help, knowing that lives are being lost

    Hopelessness that turns into bitterness is understandable in the current global political landscape but isn’t a good source of credible information
