Comments by "" (@thehumanity0) on "Andrew Yang: Julian Assange Should Stand Trial" video.

  1. Bernie commented on this all the way back in May when Assange was arrested. https://twitter.com/sensanders/status/1132021213717512193?lang=en Since then, he's released a bold plan to end the war on whistleblowers, something that would fully allow Snowden to come home.

  2.  @VegetableVendetta  And yet he gave an answer all the way back in May in support of Assange, calling him a "publication of news" and how he should be protected. https://twitter.com/sensanders/status/1132021213717512193?lang=en

  3.  @VegetableVendetta  Also, his policy on ending the war on Whistleblower should speak for itself.

  4. I know right. I was wishing Kyle would've called this BS out months ago. He's been wearing kid gloves for Yang up until just now. (sort of still is to an extent).

  5.  @Dudemar0  Yes he has. Bernie defended him all the way back in May and rightfully called Assange a "publication of the news" and stated he should be protected under the 1st Amendment. https://twitter.com/sensanders/status/1132021213717512193?lang=en

  6.  @bluesrockfan36  Lol, maybe you should actually check before just assuming what it is. https://twitter.com/sensanders/status/1132021213717512193?lang=en This was back in May.

  7.  @briandiaz5591  I don't give a shit about Assange personally, I give a shit about this little thing called the First Amendment.

  8.  @GR-uc1gq  More progressive than what? Bernie's platform involves Medicare for All, College for All, Housing for All, Jobs for All and Justice for All (it's on his T-shirts). Who decided to just blankly compare UBI to FJG when Bernie's platform is that of a universal standard of living aka an Economic Bill of Rights just as MLK Jr. and FDR wanted. Yang doesn't even support M4A or even a public option anymore, so leaving healthcare out of that debate/comparison is a crime against the American people.

  9.  @searose6192  And yet Bernie's basic standard of living (Medicare for All, College for All, Housing for All, Jobs for All) aka social safety net that is tested out in countries all across Europe and shown to WORK, is far more reliable and proven to actually take care of homelessness and poverty. Not to mention Yang's specific UBI is not progressive, it's literally regressive.

  10. Bernie doesn't need to "pardon Assange", he sees Assange as only a "publication of the news" and protected under the 1st Amendment. https://twitter.com/sensanders/status/1132021213717512193?lang=en

  11.  @bluesrockfan36  There's a few of you spreading this misinformation like your hair's on fire (or maybe it's just you spamming it). Either way, stop lying; there are already two sources posted in this thread that prove you're 100% full of shit.

  12. This video's been out for awhile, it just was always overlooked up until now. I think Humanist Report slightly mentioned it once, but that's the only time I ever heard about it.

  13. Or they're giving objective coverage on Yang's stances (followed by their personal opinions afterwards) and you just don't like it. Nobody asked Yang to backtrack on Medicare for All, we're giving him the same treatment given to Warren and Mayor Pete. If anything, Kyle is still wearing kid's gloves when speaking about Yang; he does no such thing with Pete.

  14.  Ash Win  "Assange isn't a whistleblower, he's a journalist". That's literally what Bernie is saying when he states he's a "publication of the news" and should be protected under the 1st Amendment. Also, he's responding directly to a story about Julian Assange being arrested. Are you being purposefully obtuse about this or are you just this fucking dense? "Clearly it means nothing when Bernie directly responds to Assange's arrest and we should assume his only opinion that matters is in regards to when he doesn't even give an answer because it's a random person with a phone". This is your logic.

  15.  @bluesrockfan36  Sanders responded to this in May. Stop lying. This is the 3rd time I've had to respond to this same lie from you and give you the source you were too lazy to look up: https://twitter.com/sensanders/status/1132021213717512193?lang=en

  16.  @Quinbuilds  You copy and pasted this a few times. Again, what Kyle showed was the full video. The guy literally walks up to Yang at the beginning and then walks away at the end. The original video is 36 seconds long. Wtf are you talking about with an "example" that was "cut off".

  18.  @MrBlitzkrieg1991  Wrong. https://twitter.com/sensanders/status/1132021213717512193?lang=en

  19.  @timothymcshea4295  You're pretending as if Yang's healthcare plan only differs on the issue of keeping some private insurance. His healthcare plan does not even include a public option anymore, it's basically closest to Joe Biden's non-plan healthcare plan at this point. Calling something "Medicare for All" when it doesn't achieve the concept of expanding the program of Medicare to ALL is what is DISHONEST. It doesn't even provide a public option or some type of half-measure two-tier system. Yang used to argue for Medicare for All and why it would be incredibly good for business, now he calls it "too disruptive (to the insurance companies)". He pulled a Mayor Pete and you fools are still defending him to your last breath.

  21. Why do you and bluerocks keep spamming this lie. Countless people have debunked your bullshit.

  22.  @bluesrockfan36  And here is the actual tweet in case others didn't make it clear enough for you. Stop lying and stop spamming this shit. https://twitter.com/sensanders/status/1132021213717512193?lang=en

  23. Kinda the fucking point. Saying Assange should be tried is total ignorance.

  24.  @bluesrockfan36  Bernie gave his answer all the way back in May. Stop lying. https://twitter.com/sensanders/status/1132021213717512193?lang=en

  25.  @Levixne  Lol, you guys sure are spamming it alright (like 4 of you). Too bad it's as limp as Mitch McConnell's neck fat. Firstly, it's some pretty aggressive Whataboutism that reeks of desperation. Secondly, your argument hinges on the idea that someone isn't allowed to have a position unless they answer a question immediately from a random stranger. Bernie released a statement in support of Assange back in May and stated Assange was doing "publication of the news" that should be protected under the 1st Amendment. You know, the CORRECT and Constitutional position. You trying to do a 'gotcha' over a clip where he doesn't even give an answer is incredibly hacky. If Bernie had answered the question and given the same answer Yang gave, you can bet nearly everyone here would have a different reception, including myself.

  26.  @bluesrockfan36  Right here. https://twitter.com/sensanders/status/1132021213717512193?lang=en You're spamming a lie because you were too lazy to do a Google search on what Sander's position is. You're really making your tribe look bad here.

  27.  @bluesrockfan36  Also this is his position transformed into actual policy and action: https://www.commondreams.org/news/2019/10/23/whoa-says-edward-snowden-sanders-vows-end-prosecution-whistleblowers-under-espionage

  28.  @jonathangoeij2356  Keep moving that goal post pal. He's specifically referring to Assange's arrest and stating that what he did was "the publication of the news" "protected under the 1st Amendment". I'm sure his incredibly bold proposal to end the war against whistleblowers is also somehow not enough for you. There's literally no debating you when your answer is just always going to be the same every time and you're constantly working backwards from your conclusion.

  29.  @jonathangoeij2356  You know you're reaching when you're basis is that someone can't have a position if they don't answer a question immediately from a random stranger. Jesus Christ dude, you're arguments are limp as hell.

  30.  @michaelkensington2494  In what world is Bernie on his last leg?

  31.  @michaelkensington2494  Ah, regurgitating MSM talking points are we? Not even current ones, more like ones from 2 months ago. He's not dropping out you dolt, he's currently surging and in position to actually win the fucking race. And yes, he did have a heart attack and he RECOVERED from it in the polls and surged his campaign forward into a solid position for the Iowa Caucus. Even some MSM publications have been acknowledging that it's incredible Bernie's heart attack didn't hurt him at all and his base has been rock solid.
