Sanders Supporters Use Russian Facebook Tactics to Divide Dems

[Orange Joe]

So CNN is far left according to you ? https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/cnn/ Or it is just left just as washington examiner and american spectator are just right ?

But ok lets look at sources mentioned by Examiner and Spectator, okay ? Here they are :


Washington Post did report on his praise of communism regime https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.b57222e0f899

Nymag did report on his love for commies who were supported by Soviets and enemies of USA https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019...t-problem.html

So did Daily Beast https://www.thedailybeast.com/when-b...erica-a-lesson

Are WP, Nymag and Daily Beast far right too ? Lets look what your mediabiasfactcheck thinks, ok ?

https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/washington-post/ left-center
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/new-york-magazine/ left (or far left if you prefer)
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/daily-beast/ left (far left for you)

- - - Updated - - -



See above. Are Washington Post, Nymag and Daily Baest far right just because they report something about Bernie that you dont like ?


How is praising communists and joining Marxist-Leninist party being "moderate" ?

Yes CNN would be far left. Not sure why you think that was a gotcha. I don't even watch CNN.


I like how you focus on the bias part and not how factual their reporting is.

I was just making a point that neither CNN, Examiner or Spectator are "far" anything (which your link clearly shows but you chose to ignore it for some reason).

Second point was that my """far right website""" use left sites as source so it is not misrepresenting/lying either. Unless you believe in some conspiracy theory that both big left wing and right wing media want Sanders destroyed

No one is arguing whether he said/did those things. We are arguing that it doesn't make him a communist himself. Not sure why this is hard for you to grasp.

By your logic I can point to any Trump supporter and call them racist because they support Trump who is a known racist.

Huh, sanders already lost my vote with his moronic energy policy, but this definitely adds to the "hey, maybe we shouldn't put the demagogue with the religiously fervent followers into the white house" pile.

[Shalcker]

Yeah, it means they're probably a bigot whose chief objection to Trump is that he's rude.

Why y'all trying to make a virtue out of not thinking critically?

Social-conservative left-economics (or at least non-liberal economics) is well-known to be a thing within Republican voters.

In fact, it only makes him a far better person in my eyes.

I think everybody already somebody as conservative as you would not vote for the centre-left candidate.

By your logic if someone praises nazi regime, supports it and joins national socialist party it does not make him a nazi.

Which communist regime did Bernie supposedly join? Cause last I check the US government isn't a communist regime.

I said party, not regime. He just praised commie regime.


"Virtually all Americans—Democrats, Republicans and independents—united in support of the hostages and the international call for their freedom. One prominent political figure on the 2020 stage, then almost completely unknown, stood apart by joining a Marxist-Leninist party that not only pledged support for the Iranian theocracy, but also justified the hostage taking by insisting the hostages were all likely CIA agents. Who was that person? It was Bernie Sanders. "

"In 1977, he left the tiny left-wing Liberty Union Party of Vermont that he’d co-founded, and in 1980 instead aligned himself with the Socialist Workers Party (SWP), the self-proclaimed Trotskyist revolutionary party, became its presidential elector in Vermont, and campaigned for its candidates and platform that defended the Iranian hostage seizure. "

Everybody left of the Clintons is far left to the far right, nothing new here.


Again, I wish he was, but none of the policies he supports are actually far left.

I am sure that if it was about Trump joining a nazi party you would dismiss it as well, right ? No hypocrisy here

Don't need him to join the nazi party to see he is a racist. He has already shown that plenty himself.

[Theodarzna]

OP is on a mindless anti-Sanders crusade because Washington Post and Warren told him "Sanders is a bigot" and believed it.

Just another upper middle-class privileged person who doesn't want harm to come to corporations and the neoliberal status quo.

I'm guessing Sanders must be set to really sweep this primary if they are throwing literally everything and the kitchen sink at Sanders.

Who knew Democrats were so against National Health Care and Debt cancellation.
