He refused to call it a genocide until 2025, I wouldn't call that consistent. Dragging his heels, dodging questions about it, calling it a "legal term" until then.

And when he finally called it a genocide, doing so started by condemning Hamas, calling it "Netanyahu's war" as if it's not widely supported (polls have shown that it is).

He supports Iron Dome funding/access (unless that changed recently, I'd be happy to hear that but it won't change my mind on him being a liberal Zionist) https://www.sanders.senate.gov/press-releases/prepared-remarks-sanders-on-ending-unfettered-military-aid-to-israel-and-restoring-unrwa-funding/

Interview (Yes, I know it's from 2017, but it doesn't seem like this opinion has changed as far as I can tell) https://fileditchfiles.st/beta16/54fd6b222f3c42d1a1f6/bernie_sanders_equal_rights_for_palestinians_and-one-state-solution.mp4

More recently, from 2025: https://fileditchfiles.st/beta16/9dbace77bfa33654edfc/Bernie-Sanders-Israel-Jewish-state.mp4

In my view, Bernie Sanders is consistently a liberal Zionist. Fuck Zionists, including the "liberal" ones.

    I think it's good Nazi Germany has ceased to exist.

    I want the equivalent for Israel, except there has never been a truly democratic, non-colonist, non-apartheid, non-genocidal Israel for it to revert to. Israel cannot exist with what you're asking/hoping for. It's utterly incompatible.

    It's a blanket boycott, that includes bourbon.

    Many Canadians are boycotting everything they reasonably can that's American, not just alcohol.

    Unfortunately for California, it's an American state. If it wants to be excluded, it can either secede or somehow fix federal level trade problems.

    Far from bug proof. You can write as many logic bugs as you want (as that's what happened here), but it'll save you from a common class of potentially devastating memory safety and data race bugs in safe Rust.

    LLMs (and most computer applications) don't operate with true random number generators, mostly pseudorandom generators of varying degrees of strength of randomness.

    Physical dice are more likely to be actually random than most computer stuff. Unless they're loaded or otherwise biased.
