I realized mostly on hearing the experience of other people with autism. So with cases like special interests, typing very long messages compared to others, rambling often when talking, and likely some other ones I don’t remember. I’ve also taken some of the tests online for it, and typically gotten far past the artificial baseline the websites qualify for having autism. These aren’t conclusive, and I haven’t gotten a diagnosis due to not seeing the need to, and the hassle it would be to get one.

Same thing I’m thinking, maybe they see Israel and its “ceasefire” with Hamas as a positive, along with the decapitatiob strikes and conflicts Israel keeps provoking. It seems as very bad strategy, the US population isn’t as supportive of massacring people, so they would likely see far more internal antagonisms to itself. Very idealist thinking, but it is capitalism, so I suppose it makes sense.

Neither of the “one or two” issues that are more important isn’t the genocide in Gaza to him. Thinking back to (my little knowledge of the bombing of) Yugoslavia and to my remembrance he did similar this same neoliberal media obscuration to try and stop coverage of the crimes the US and israel are committing in Palestine.

Also,

“I have lived a life dedicated to antifascism, antiracism and anti-Nazism. I think that racism and antisemitism are a long scourge on our society and a long scourge on our politics, and I think it has no place in our world.”

Will say he’s antiracist, antifascist, and against antisemitism, and then keeps continuing to support the US givernement who have been doing crimes in these categories for up to centuries. The power of “working in the system” of capitalist electorism doesn’t work as a main strategy, as the capitalists and their dogs will only let in and promote those who are truly for the capitalists.

To this last point I make, I am still confused as to whether or not Bernie truly believes in his ideology, in fighting for a “softer” form of capitalism. My view that seems most correct is that he truly believes in the US as a force for good, as he surley is influenced mostly through the same capitalist media’s most people the US, and surrounded by like minded liberals who reinforce is ideology. It’s mainly a struggle in my mind on how one could view all these horrors and crimes the USA commits against people worldwide, to seemingly have a higher understanding of politics and what is going on, and still believe in the Neoliberal “end of history” lie, still believe that these crimes are justified.
