      • Which one was your favorite time he voted to send weapons to Israel? I keep asking
      • You’re talking nonsense since Bernie Sanders has been extremely vigorous about opposing Israel (pretty obviously more so than Eurovision is) in a bunch of specific and material ways, here are some examples

      Does that way of explaining it make sense?

        You do realize it wasn’t about Bernie’s positions? It was just that him being a US senator enjoins a different level of scrutiny, for reasons such as: Congress funds Israel’s military and Eurovision does not. (Or as far as I know.)

        People saw his opposition to funding weapons and wanted him to call it a genocide, which he hadn’t until today. Hence, expectations and the ‘finally’ sentiment being expressed.

        I don’t know why you’re on this refrain of asking about my ‘favorite time’.
