Bernie Sanders is a Grifter

Bernie Sanders has called out Elon Musk on the issue of H-1B visas, suggesting the visas replace good-paying American jobs with indentured servants from abroad.

Yesterday (Jan 2), Bernie Sanders posted a statement on 𝕏, saying, "The main function of the H-1B visa program is not to hire “the best and the brightest,” but rather to replace good-paying American jobs with low-wage indentured servants from abroad. The cheaper the labor they hire, the more money the billionaires make."

Bernie Sanders and his opinions have become irrelevant in the modern political discussion. There was energy around Bernie in 2015 when he was running for president, his biggest thing was the healthcare issue, which went over well with the younger generations.

But Bernie has been doing nothing forever. He's been in politics for over 40 years, and his biggest "achievements" have been advocating for taxing billionaires and medicare for all.

Bernie's career is defined by advocacy and talk, but with 40 years in political office, what has he done? No one knows. So now he's jumping on the bandwagon of movements that actually have traction and are led by people that could make real change.

In the last few weeks, Bernie has jumped on the RFK Jr.'s health movement, advocated for health care reform, and now he's taking sides in the American-worker debate. Two things he's been practically silent on until now.

Cernovich made the same point in response to Bernie Sanders' post about H-1B visas, writing, "Funny how you never mentioned this when you ran for POTUS."

While it's probably nice for some to see Sanders agree with them on this issue of H-1B visas, people need to recognise it's political grifting at its finest. You do not want the guy who has done nothing in his entire life to be part of your movement.

Great to have the support, but Bernie Sanders should not a leading voice on any of these issues. There's so much at stake for everyone that the chances that these movements get hijacked by outsiders like Bernie is incredibly high.

Many people who disagree with Elon Musk on the immigration issue think that having Bernie's support is somehow a win, which it's not. One user wrote, "Bernie is more America First than Elon and Trump now." Even Myron Gaines showed support, "Holy shit this ninja spittin'...never thought I'd see the day."

It is far better to have Elon Musk advocating for important issues than Bernie Sanders. Again, he's a career politician who's done nothing. Even his opinion on any of these matters is irrelevant. People only care because it's a "dunk" on Elon, but the right shouldn't be aligning or even supporting people who don't share the same goals.

Just because they agree on one issue doesn't make them an ally. The right wing has this tendency to embrace anyone who agrees with them even slightly. And this is precisely why the right wing is infiltrated by freaks.

Better to hope that Elon Musk comes to his senses then align with Bernie Sanders on anything. That sounds idealistic, but the career politician is precisely the person to blame for the current state of Western countries. They have raped the population for decades with their stupid ideas, and their expert ability to ruin what better men created.
