HE COMMENTED ON CIVIL RIGHTS:

When asked: Would you have said the same thing during the civil rights movement?

He replied: "What a ridiculous and self-serving oversimplification to imply the civil rights movement was successful because people stood in the street. It's very simple, just get out of the road"

Here's the link to the video clips.

He also said this:

"What gives you the unique moral authority to break the law because of what you believe in?... It's narcissistic and entitled. That's insane. It's like these people think the world revolved around their issue..."

The pic is just a pic I found of him.

Edit: Also, if people think he doesn't matter, he's literally more popular than Hasan, especially when it comes to gaming shit.

    Am I wrong or did Bernie himself flip on Israel? Like, I think before the current assault, he was way more open and critical of Israel. Or maybe he was always like this and we - the younger, progressive people he partly energized back in 2016 - just shifted way more to the left than him without even realizing, leaving him behind?

    I remember how his position back in Oct-Nov of 2023 came to me as somewhat shocking/disappointing, but I didn't pay too much attention to it, because I frankly didn't care what he had to say. It was just more words on Twitter from yet another politician. If he wasn't going to be an ally, then there was no use paying any attention to him. And I think now he's trying to pivot along with a bunch of other politicians, in which case, again, he's not that different from any of them.
