    Default Leftist hypocrisy in the news



    Probably because Jackass Party bosses again oppose his candidacy, current DEMOCRAT front-runner Comrade Bernie Sanders has unbelievably come under fire from the leftist media for praising one of their their erstwhile heroes, Fidel Castro.

    Some of the Party propaganda outlets hypocritically criticizing Comrade Sanders offered similar praise for Castro in their 2016 obituaries for the leftist icon.

    After Comrade Sanders said hyped Castro's literacy program in a See-BS interview, the Bezos-owned Washington Post opined snidely that "finding something positive to say about an authoritarian leader" was one of Sanders's "greatest hits," giving a rundown of all the times their favored Party's front-runner has praised dictatorial Communist governments.

    The Post‘s own 2016 obituary for Fidel gushed that "among Mr. Castro’s more successful efforts were universal health care and the near-eradication of illiteracy throughout Cuba. Thousands of classrooms were built in rural areas, and the country’s literacy rate grew to more than 95 percent. There were more physicians and hospital beds per capita in Cuba than in the United States."

    The failing New York Times also depicted Castro as a "fiery apostle of revolution" who "defied the United States for nearly half a century" and praised him for having "bedeviled 11 American presidents." The Times also credited the Castro regime with "improving education and health care for many Cubans" and noted that "admirers from around the world, including some Americans, were impressed with the way that health care and literacy in Cuba had improved."

    The left-coast Los Angeles Times heralded Castro's "impressive progress in literacy, higher education and health care" and wrote that "university enrollment was higher than in many more prosperous countries," adding that "Castro's ‘literacy brigades' helped lift the quality of life in the countryside."

    The UK-based leftist Guardian obituary heaped praise on Castro's "huge personal charm and charisma, and his political genius," while another headline fawningly proclaimed that Cuba's literacy rate and health care were "Castro's legacy and the envy of many nations." The latter article cited many left-wing celebrities, pundits, and politicos who hailed Castro as "a leader whose enlightened and practical approach to social care provided Cuba with enviable health and education systems."

    Liberal media coverage following the death of Castro frequently praised Cuba's education and health care, following the lead of the Obama administration.

    What a pack of horribly hypocritical hyenas.

    That's because these outlets aren't actually left-wing. The moment a real Leftist runs for office, they all try to bury him.

    So you say. They are trying to bury Bernie because he won't hide their agenda from the voters until after the election.

    The voters are with him. Virtually every poll shows Bernie beating Trump, and shows that Bernie's policies are very popular.
    The establishment is terrified of Bernie winning.

    Bernie cant and wont win. Talk all you want,.... but in the end we ALL know Trump will make him his bitch. I get that some of you will never admit it, all the same,... its good enuff just knowing that you KNOW too. If Bernie even makes it that far that is without the corrupt party leadership screwing him over again like last time...LOL

    To those that are unwilling to take responsibility for themselves and believe someone else of which they're jealous should provide them things, what Bernie proposes is popular. Freeloaders like free things. They don't provide much to society that's beneficial other than to laugh at.

    I don't think you really believe that, but it's beside the point. Bernie and his policies are popular enough to win. That's what has both Republicans and Democrats scared.

    The only real Leftists that have run for office in my lifetime were Bernie, Tulsi, and Yang. People like Biden and Buttigieg are Centrists that wouldn't change all that much.

    I forgot, the polls only count when they showed Trump ahead in the primaries.

    Polls never count in my estimation. Try again.
