Bernie is anything but. This man has been fighting for the rights of people all his life. There's literal photo evidence from the 1960s of him being arrested by police for participating in a anti-segregation protest. Saying this is an absolute disservice.

This man supports a fascist apartheid state committing genocide.

All it took was a simple combination of three words in a search engine "Bernie Sanders Israel" to find out that is, in fact, not the case (though I already knew beforehand). Why was that too hard for you to do? You realize by spreading misinformation you're benefiting the very politicians you're trying to oppose?

Uhuh. Either you're using a very bad search engine or you're just lying

Bernie Sanders' effort to block US weapons sales - The Guardian

Sanders Statement on Israel, Palestine, and Growing Humanitarian Disaster - Senate.gov

Bernie Sanders accuses Israel of ‘genocide’ in Gaza, the first US senator to do so - Times of Israel

It Is Genocide - senate.gov

The problem with Bernie Sanders’s ‘it is genocide’ admission - Al-Jazeera

Here are the first four results, the It Is Genocide admission was taken from a link in the ToI article. I'm guessing you're referring to the opinion by Ahmad Ibsais, who rightfully criticized Sander's statement. But in case you didn't notice, Sanders actually did more and continues to do in attempts to end the Gaza genocide than you moral keyboard warrior did, and you're shooting against him because he didn't 100% use the words you wanted. So if I were to support Sanders, there is a chance of change. If I were to support you, I may as well donate to the IDF, because your idea of politics will kill the rest of the Palestinians in Gaza anyways.

Edit: My search engine (degoog), in case your intrrested

Baseless accusations, nice. Who is the fraud now?
