@revolutionarycats: Bernie Sanders is not a socialist. It would be much more accurate to classify Bernie (and the broader Democratic Socialists of America) as social democrats. Because their policy positions are not socialist. Wealth taxes are not socialist. Funding imperial bombs is not socialist. These are things that social democrat would do. Post-lecture Q&A with Michael Parenti (2015), American political scientist and Marxist. #leftist #marxism #socialism #berniesanders #communism

trataodemotivar :

As a former Bernie bro, I can confirm Bernie Sanders is a joke

kb :

Bernie is controlled opposition, there to give gullible liberals someone to vote for and keep the war machine rolling unopposed.

CalvinLukas9 :

I’m not sure about that but I do think Bernie should have approached himself as a social democrat to get elected in 2016.

shannoncece :

Bernie was also AGAINST a c3eas.e fire😒

🇵🇸🇦🇺 :

Bernie will always say the Netenyahu government, never Israel…

Farmgirl1991 :

I mean look at what Bernie asks for now. A 5% wealth tax? Are u fcking kidding me? On Billionaire/Trillionaires eating us alive? It’s giving “Please, sir, may I have some more porridge?”🥣

Tenacious Dennis :

No socialist supports any war except class war.

oyushi :

Bernie also famously refused to call what was happening in Gaza what it was

AZRVExpert :

billionares cannot exist if they pay their fair share

_itchyvagabond :

Y’all know this is the great Michael Parenti and HE NEVER MISSES! Go watch his vids on YT. RIP

Tommyt :

Based Bernie, using American power to stop a genocide, I wish every leftist was as brave as Bernie

LA VIDA ES TRAGICA :

adding music to parenti is crazy, they need to hear every stutter uncut unedited as I HAD TO.

millygrams :

yugoslav war is where we started trying out depleted uranium shells. wanted to see how itd work & be able to study what effects it has on humans. also switched to an infrastrucfure-first style of tactical bombing.

Dimitri2aluna :

The song made this a lot more enjoyable 😅

Yeff :

He loves being a celebrity

NeamhCo☭ :

Friendly reminder when Democrats complain about “white leftists” they primarily mean Bernie Sanders supporters. They mostly have no idea the rest of us even exists.

rolled_and_smoked :

i agree with dr. parenti, but i also think bernie plays an important role in pushing people left. in 2016 and 2020 he was an important first step in catching young people who might have otherwise been filtered into the liberal machine and placing them on a different path.

I would call them all liberal Zionists

Week the people they were killing in Yugoslavia were Bosnians; which are Muslim
