The campaign of the senator from Vermont has told some supporters picked to represent him this year to sign agreements barring attacks on other candidates or party leaders, combative confrontations on social media or talking to reporters without approval.

"“Refrain from making negative statements about other candidates, party leaders, Campaigns, Campaign staffers, supporters, news organizations or journalists. This Campaign is about the issues and finding solutions to America’s problems,”

Delegates were told they “are expected to follow” the guidelines and that “failure to do so may result in disciplinary action, including but not limited to your removal from the delegation.”

The Sanders campaign said the requirements were not the product of a request from the Biden campaign, and the Biden campaign said it was not previously aware of them.

This thread will turn ugly :vegas:

I will say one thing: vote for SCOTUS, not Biden if you still prefer Bernie.

We already lost the supreme court and Biden will just appoint more republicans to it anyway.

vote for someone who can actually coordinate a pandemic response (yes the chances of it happening again aren’t all that high, but imagine they were—who would you want running the country and setting the tone for the worlds response)

Joe Biden is a rapist. If the DNC didn't want people attacking their nominee they shouldn't have rigged the election for a person with decades worth of footage of of them being a creep.

Imagine thinking Republicans can’t do their own research and attacks. The point of dragging a Dem nominee is so the party doesnt elect someone weak against Trump. Which why its tragic Biden is the nom over Bernie.

A party leader who doesn’t align with his base the most important issue: healthcare.

Literally laughing irl rn whew I feel so bad for Americans

Biden is... I'm not gonna be mad at anyone who chooses not to vote for him. With the sexual assault allegations, horrible behavior, and lazy platform. Just read on his site today. He says he will strongly support (the ethnostate of) Israel and condemn Palestinians "for their choices" (this is a direct quote :saladga:). Yes, I'm sure having thousands of innocent people bombed on their own homeland was a choice. 

Yet privileged Americans will not give one single **** because it's not happening in their backyard. And yet American politicians want to poke their noses in other countries' businesses and Americans will fully support it.

The way 8 years of the Obama era ushered in the Trump era... imagine ****ing up a country that badly. And then also imagine trying to elect the god damn VP from said administration...

Its just comedy to me :billie:

Worms for brains, so many millions of people: worms. 

Bernie, please just go back to the senate and fight like usual bc you’re just annoying people who are trying to help the country get better.

are you serious. how can we have a “two-state solution” if ppl don’t treat one like an actual state. 

honeslty this is why i like populist candidates (like trump and arguably bernie) bc they don’t

tho to play Devils Advocate: you could argue that if americans didn’t get involved in foreign nations, china and russia would sweep in. there’s this impresssion that american interference is necessary to avoid russian or chinese conquest—but how true this is, and to what extent americans need to intervene (if at all) is impossible to say.

Yes. And these matters should be in the hands of international organizations like the UN over which the US has immense power anyway. It should NOT be a unilateral militaristic decision by the US.

Populist doesn't always mean nationalist - Trump has plenty of ties to other countries too, especially business related.

This is the Joe Biden website page. He even has the audacity to put his "unstinting support of Israel" as a positive point for Jewish people implying that all Jews support or should support Israel. :rip:

The Israel bullet points are awful, how they got published god knows.
