    Notice how all you have is completely unfalsifiable counterfactuals and a complete inability to understand being motivated by actual principles rather than cynical realpolitik

      Yeah my bad I should have sent some YouTube videos or linked to the text of some bills or something lol. I could have asked questions of the people I was talking to about what the factual details of what they were talking about were, I could have done a lot of things. I am sure they never would have just evaporated or refused to answer the factual questions I was asking, I am sure we could have come to an understanding since everyone involved in this conversation is super open to factual conversation

      I feel bad now for just insisting super hard that Bernie’s a GOOD guy, that was a bullshit approach

      I’m done now, there is no point to this, it has been enjoyable chatting with you though. Have a wonderful day

      Edit: This is what I’m talking about, I already gave the Bernie-betrayed-the-Palestinians gang an abundance of a chance to prove their case and they just wandered in circles yelling about how they were right.

        So once again you’re just damning people by making up unfalsifiable counterfactuals.

        People are going to criticise Sanders when he says and does things that deserve criticism. Once again, you have a complete inability to understand being motivated by actual principles rather than cynical realpolitik

          Feel free to answer the unfalsifiable counterfactual where I asked when Bernie Sanders had voted for aid to Israel, and quite a few times the person who had said that he had, changed the subject or started yelling or pretended not to understand or abruptly fell silent. I really look forward to you helping educate me on this, since it’s all just my mistaken ness and you guys are the ones with the super-strong grasp on the facts.

            What the fuck are you talking about? You understand that different people are different people right? Don’t fucking try to vicariously reiterate arguments you’re having with other people with me, asshole.
