    Bernie was willing to vote down the bipartisan funding bill recently because it included additional military funding to Israel. He stood on the Senate Floor and put up giant printout images of women and children starving and begging to receive water from behind a metal barricade. Bernie is the realest person you’ve never met. Despite being Jewish, he is the single person who speaks out the most against this atrocity in all of Congress.

      Despite being Jewish

      I know you didn’t mean any harm by this but it is antisemitic to assume that all Jews do, or should, or would be expected to, support Israel. It’s not true, it has never been true, and the only people who claim it is true are racists.

        That’s exactly why I said it, though? Bernie is an example of a high standard we should hold all people to. Calling me antisemitic for that makes you seem like an Israeli apologist.
