Yes please, I would love to know what propaganda is getting sent to people, it would be really interesting to see how the Russians and the rest of Trump's dictator buddies are attacking us again this year across the board.


Because it is very real. No matter how hard @Padawanbater2 would like us to believe it is otherwise.

Because all of Trump and Putin's hard work on propping up Bernie Sanders would go to a waste.
So if I asked you a question and you answered "yes", that means you really don't mean "yes" because the words weren't written by you?
You didn't even bother to read what I wrote without having to figure out some way to troll it huh?

if you ask a girl "Can I put it in your ass? and she responds "Yes".....are you gonna wait around for a dissertation?...
Is she drunk, because even then it would be sketchy as shit to do that.

Bro I just voted for Bernie while having a dab. Does that mean my vote shouldn't count?...

No. You said it was misleading when the headline said "..." because it wasn't really what she said, she just answered the question.

I say you're wrong, she's a grown ass woman that can answer yes or no to a question. She can even elaborate on a part of the question she doesn't agree with, but she didn't alluding to the fact that she agrees with the premise of the question.

Maybe Russia will come out and agree with her, then you can discount it as propaganda.

Whatever, go round and round with it, I pointed out that all the article had was her answering 'yes', and that I was hoping for a good explanation to what the article made it seem like she said, in her own words, because there is a difference.

It is almost like you have a reason to try to get people to believe that Putin is not attacking our elections.

Have you ever answered, are you an American?
Everything you're doing, accusing people of being Russian sympathizers or Putin puppets is exactly the same tactics Joe McCarthy used against political opponents, not because they actually were, but because their pro-labor, pro-civil rights activities were popular and McCarthy couldn't substantively argue against them. The accusation was enough back then, but unfortunately for you, today the internet exists. People can look up the history of how events unfolded for themselves, they can see the same old dirty tricks people like you used to pull back then to quell any activism that threatened the power structure of the rich white male agenda and the status quo.

Do you think there's some rule that says that if I'm not an American, I have to tell you? What prevents me from lying to you? What leads me to think you would believe what I said regardless? In any case, I am an American. Do you want my social security number?

Now you have said it, thank you, then I won't think of our time together as a waste.

Nothing prevents you from lying, and no I don't want your SSN, if you were Russian, it would likely just be some poor Americans anyways.

Everything you are doing, is an attempt to hide how the Russians (and other countries) are attacking our countries citizens. Well, aside from the times you are actually pushing their propaganda agenda.

Luckily today 'the accusation' is not enough, because we do have the internet, and everything leaves a trace. Unfortunately today with Trump taking over the DNI with his minions, we are left unprotected from propagandists. I would have believed you a lot more if you would have answered a month ago, now that Putin know's the FBI is not looking into anything Russia related because Dear Leader has shut it down, I find it convenient you finally answering that question.

But I can hope you are not lying, even if it does make me sad that if you are actual an American that you are so propagandized.

I don't dispute that Russia is actively helping Trump. You're implying they're helping Sanders in the same way, which couldn't be further from the truth. They "supported" Sanders in 2016 insofar as much as they opposed Clinton becoming president, and in that sense, they "supported" Lincoln Chafee, Martin O'Malley, and Jim Webb the same amount. This election, they support disrupting our political institutions and deligimizing our government agencies and causing divisions between voters and political parties to continue the chaos of the previous three years. You're trying to sell a narrative that simply doesn't exist, and the louder you insist it does, the more eyes you turn away to the very real threat some foreign governments pose to American national security.

You are willfully ignoring that they are still helping him win this Democratic primary too? Because all evidence shows that they are, including Bernie Sanders himself. He knew for an entire month before he was forced to acknowledge it when Trump fired the DNI for reporting it to congress that we are still under attack from the Russians.


Also you don't know (unless you do) why the Russians are helping Sanders. Ive looked, there is no reputable source out there that says why the Russians are helping out Sanders campaign. So as much as you can hope (assuming you are what you say you are, an American), you can't know.

This should piss off any American, regardless of whose 'team' you are on, it has to stop, pretending it doesn't exist is just helping the Russians/foreign trolls hide in plain sight.

I just don't think some people posting tweets and memes in support of Sanders is enough "evidence" to make the claim that Russia is helping Sanders win the Democratic primary the same way they help(ed) Trump. Trump played an active role in receiving help, he sent advisors and people under him to meet with sources from Russia, discussed payments, details, etc. What active role has Sanders or his campaign played in whatever "help" you believe they received from Russia? As far as I know, both of us agree, there's nothing he, or anyone else, can do or could have done to prevent someone from claiming support for his campaign besides condemn it after he learned about it, which he has explicitly done. I'm not sure what else you expect of him, this again feels like a double standard you hold against Sanders because you oppose him winning the nomination.

OK, so when pressed about the evidence you have of any active role Sanders or his campaign has played in receiving help from Russia, you wilt like a flower

Should we go back to the Joe McCarthy memes, too many big words?

He knew for more than a month we were once again under attack and said nothing to warn the American public of it. That is him showing he is more concerned about his election than the public being aware of the Russians attacking our democracy.

Right, this is like the fourth or fifth time I've addressed that, when he was briefed about it, that information was classified. You understand what "classified" means, right? Secret. It is illegal to tell anyone without proper clearance about it, that would include the press. If he had ran to the press the moment he found out about it while it was still classified, you would be here condemning him for exposing security risks - probably be comparing him to how nonchalant Trump exposes secrets - and claiming that somehow helped Russia. There is nothing Sanders can do in your eyes because you already personally oppose him.

What active role did Sanders or his campaign play in the help you believe they received from Russia?

There is nothing classified about telling the American public that the Russians are attacking our democracy, when it was being said in the Senate hearing attacking Biden.

He didn't need to go into specifics about it to warn us all.

This campaign or last one?

Last one, he stuck around for an extra month when he clearly lost, giving Trump an extra month to run unopposed and propagating the anti-Hillary messaging.

This election, he is targeting the latino communities that we know have been under attack since 2016 with the fear anti-establishment propaganda that I have seen pushed here about Obama locking kids in cages, acting like it was in anyway similar to Trumps.

Maybe it's because Sanders isn't a Democrat and his campaign is more about running against Democrats than trying to beat Republicans?

Padaraper has said so himself.

His kind say Democrats are the problem and the reason why Republicans are raping this country. Just listen to what he's saying. Hardly one word is spoken against Republicans or Trump.

It's not as if they are hiding anything. Nor are they coddling Russians. They talk about how bad Democrats are.

SANDERS: “I will tell you that I was absolutely outraged by his behavior in Helsinki, where he really sold the American people out. And it makes me think that either Trump doesn’t understand what Russia has done, not only to our elections, but through cyber attacks against all parts of our infrastructure, either he doesn’t understand it, or perhaps he is being blackmailed by Russia, because they may have compromising information about him.

“Or perhaps also you have a president who really does have strong authoritarian tendencies. And maybe he admires the kind of government that Putin is running in Russia. And I think all of that is a disgrace and a disservice to the American people. And we have got to make sure that Russia does not interfere, not only in our elections, but in other aspects of our lives.”


“No candidate, whether Secretary Clinton or anyone else, should have to wage an electoral contest in the face of foreign government intervention,” Sanders said in a statement.

“As someone who campaigned hard for Secretary Clinton from one end of this country to another, it is an outrage that she had to run against not only Donald Trump but also the Russian government. All Americans rightly expected and deserved a fair election free of foreign government intervention,” he added.


Sanders Introduces Resolution to Protect American Democracy from Russian Meddling

Thursday, July 19, 2018

WASHINGTON, July 19 — Sen. Bernie Sanders introduced a resolution Thursday to force members of the Senate to go on the record in accepting the assessment of the U.S. intelligence community that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election and the looming threat of Russian interference in this year's midterm elections.

The resolution also calls for the Senate to commit to safeguard the U.S. election system, protect the ongoing investigation of Special Counsel Robert Mueller and demand that President Donald Trump cooperate with the investigation.

Sanders will speak on the floor regarding the resolution at 11:20 a.m. today.

"If President Trump won't confront Putin about interference in our elections and his destabilizing policies, Congress must act. Tweets and speeches are fine, but we need more from Republican senators now," Sanders said. “If their leadership won’t allow votes on this extraordinarily important matter, then my Republican colleagues must join with Democrats to make it happen or all of their words are worthless.”

So are you still going to pretend it is not happening? That it was just a couple tweets and memes posted by people?
