Continue going against Bernie. He still won’t call what’s happening in Palestine a genocide because he’s such a coward. Not that long ago he had pro-Palestine protestors removed from an event of his for unfurling the Palestinian flag, all this despite the crowd chanting “free Palestine”.
If you’re not calling it what it is, all you are is an enabler. I used to look up to the guy but his shameful unwillingness to use “the g word” only turns supporters away from him. Not calling it a genocide is a non-starter when every single fact points to that being the case. People aren’t blind, and this weakness from Bernie on this critical issue has made him lose countless supporters, of which who knows how many left politics altogether and stayed at home during the election as a result.
You either keep up the pressure, or find someone else willing to tell things as they are. If Bernie is so scared of stating facts on a human rights issue, then who’s to take his word that he’ll fight for anybody’s human rights if push truly comes to shove?
If Jamaal Bowman didn’t pull that damn fire alarm, he’d be a perfect example of someone (formerly) in office to look up to. In terms of commentators, been feeling homeless and left the U.S. sphere since Kyle Kulinski went radio silent in terms of a response to him saying it’s okay to deadname Caitlyn Jenner over her politics.
