Bernie is a liberal zionist and a shill for the gipity. This man👏 is 👏 a 👏 turd. Yo yo yo unemployment nearing 25% in U.S. enough with the toxic positive optimism and libturd apologetics.
Where on Earth did you get this notion? Bernie clearly states on a fairly regular basis that he does not support the current Israeli government and that he is not a zionist.
He believes israel should always be a jewish state so yeah he is a liberal zionist. Opposing only one government of israel do not make you an antizionist
Please show a single time Sanders has claimed not to be a Zionist. His position has consistently been that Netanyahu is an outlier who is sullying the otherwise noble nation of Israel, aka the liberal Zionist position.
Ah it seems you’re right. While he has harshly criticized the Likud and the IDF he has said in the past that he believes Israel should exist as a Jewish state.
I’d love to see him answer Finkelstein’s best question(IMO), “How can you have a Jewish state that is not a Jewish Supremacy state?”
Didn’t stop this com and their Bernie Sanders personality cult from overwhelmingly upvoting your factually incorrect statement.
And go answer your remark about Finkelstein’s statement: Sanders would do what all liberal Zionists do, play word games to get around the problem and gesture to the hypothetical idea of future Palestinian state you justify continuing to support apartheid colonialism.
My dude, I get you don’t like that specifically, but can we please be chill with language policing? As long as we understand them, who cares how they communicate?
I’m not saying you’re that far, but there’s a reason we have my entire life called them grammar Nazis. It’s kind of unwelcoming though and the fediverse is better when we’re all having friendly days.
Oh yeah, they don’t teach space colonists United Earth Sphere Alliance literature.
Leaders of the United Earth Sphere Alliance are capitalists. The abbreviation is “capis”
You’re in the c/ProgressivePolitics@lemmy.world, abbreviated “progpol.”
Everytime you say ageist shit, you lose space colony social credits. Soon you’ll be broke ass hell Amuro. Labor day is something you have never experienced, so keep slaving!
Yet that measure, which reflects the percentage of people 16 and older who don’t have a job and who are looking for work, is an imprecise metric that fails to offer a full picture of the health of the job sector
You use the “people of working age looking for employment” metric because lumping in people who aren’t of working age and aren’t looking for employment gives you a population that isn’t actually employable.
Right dude. I used to prepare these statistics. I’m not unemployable because I had a few sizeable chunks taken out of me, advanced degrees be damned, despite the views of a lot of employers.
Right, but the larger point being made in the article is that the metric has become less useful over time. I was continuing to quote because you were taking it out of context.
As workforce participation ahas gone down. Many people are checking entirely out of the economy (no longer looking for work) or don’t make enough to afford basic things like housing and healthcare. We literally have a class of working homeless people in this country. Those people are technically “employed”.

Sure, they’re called Retirees. And they’re moving into retirement due to their advanced age. And we’re seeing a glut of them due to the lopsided Boomer age cohort. But, among Millennials and Zoomers, workforce participation is above the historical average. Two-income housesholds are the modern norm. We are not in any kind of unemployment crisis. If anything, we’re experiencing a labor shortage.

That’s got nothing to do with workforce participation, either as a useful metric or a share of the population. Far more indicative of our abysmal housing policies and our atrocious criminal justice system.

If you fail a purity test you’re a lib.
The purity test of not supporting genocidal apartheid states
I mean he is a liberal, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t support policies that leftists also support.

American “leftists” are such a fucking joke. You accurately point out how problematic one of their heroes is and they immediately throw a hissy fit.
As long as those heroes don’t harm any Americans that is.
Why are you communicating like a 15 year old?
My dude, I get you don’t like that specifically, but can we please be chill with language policing? As long as we understand them, who cares how they communicate?

You cannot possibly be this dumb to tone-police people and play some kind of fragile flower.
Fuck off. How’s that for a reply?
What’s this “we” shit?
precisely my point dude
Neat
Ageism, in my progpol‽ More like who cares capis. It’s labour day, 🖕 capis.
And you seem like you’re having a stroke

Likely the same person as that initial post in this thread. Couple of chuds.
I wouldn’t be surprised. There seems to be an influx of that lately on here of trolls with very odd linguistic skills and childish attitudes

Brain rot is real, please get help from a professional.
Spoken like someone who thinks I should care more about snake emojis than wages and being able to afford food.
Where do you people get this stuff?
Vibe research.

Also people who have left the traditional labor force, like me
