Thus far, we’ve failed to see the appeal of Bernie Sanders … but the Daily Wire’s Jeremy Boreing totally gets it:

I support ⁦@BernieSanders⁩ for president because communism has never really failed, you know? It’s just never really been tried, I mean, if you really think about it. #myberniestory pic.twitter.com/XkvjZyHqO3 — Jeremy Boreing (@JeremyDBoreing) August 12, 2019

“Am I right?”

? I actually though you were serious at first. — Eric Phillips (@eric411420) August 12, 2019

Actually, there were quite a few people who thought he was serious. And others who just didn’t get the joke.

ignorant and wrong. — KnitWit (@maraomaude) August 12, 2019

He’s not communist. Sarcasm works better when it’s based on the truth. — Neurology Doctor (@NeurologyDoctor) August 12, 2019

Let’s choose to believe you’re not a liar, you just don’t know what words mean when you use them as slurs. — John Fugelsang (@JohnFugelsang) August 12, 2019

Is “communism” a slur, now? Or is that just because Boreing was making fun of USSR and Castro fanboy Bernie Sanders? It’s telling the people criticizing Boreing for calling Bernie Sanders a communist are more offended by the fact that he’s calling Bernie Sanders a communist than they are by the fact that Sanders is sympathetic to communist causes.
