Oh yeah, Mr. "Literally Honeymooned in the Actual Soviet Union" who praised SU multiple times, who says he has "never changed his opinion on any issues" is just a moderate 'Capitalist + safety net guy.' Nope, nothing else to see here! I mean I don't think I can even list half the things, but he has praised every Commie leader in the past as far as I know. All of them. No red flags there says Shoe, moderate incarnate!
And of course, if you can't piece it together from that alone, he won't fire actual self proclaimed violent 'bring back muh Gulags' commies. She is so ideologically possessed, all she can do is pretend not to know of this. And I guarantee she knows.
Hell of a dumb ship to go down with tbh. And why even? Because Comrade Bernie seems more moderate on the most surface level, and she just refuses to dig any deeper because she wants that to be the case? At least have the intelligence to shut up about it, if so.
