Explained: The Great British Culture War ruclips.net/video/v2mZviek5MM/видео.html
How does one completely illegally rob family business, deny business and access through authoritarianism, create more than 40% of the money ever printed and give it to "liberal" backed companies and manage to blame capitalism? I guess it makes sense to those who hijacked and perverted the name liberal to mean sexual relations with the government. For those who aren't interested in communist propaganda, simply look up the word capitalism to know these people are merely actors out to scam you.
what do u mean by culture war, ?
@@pahis1248 Did you watch the video?
We need universal healthcare in the United States! Dental care is ludicrous! If you have a broken leg and you go to the emergency room, they don’t put a cast on it. They give you a piece of paper with a specialists name on it and if you can’t afford to go to the specialist, well, you’re fucked you just have to have a broken leg dangling off your body healthcare in the United States. Sucks!
The original mannequin with crazy flappy hands.
Got to love Bernie, he's been hammering the same message on behalf of the working class for literal decades.
(Sorry for typos)
Both Parties are evil and filthy rich.
The rest of US political class after Reagan forgot the traditional US political narrative Bernie still speaks of. He has inspired a new generation & even Biden. He's the soul of America
It's just too bad no one with enough guts to listen and do something. Bernie and I are not going to be around some day, and you will miss us.
Lol. Does be still advocate for sexual relationships with minors
Bernie , we don’t want the vaccine-
American here, in case there's there's people in the UK and Great Britain thinking private insurance might be better, or think it could never happen where they live, have them listen to Bernie. Don't take it for granted please. There is so much suffering here from medical bills, people dying from avoiding going to the doctor to curb medical debt, it's inhumane.
God bless that man Bernie
Don't worry, @@skybluebrad2781, considering that a lot of our politicians here in the U.K. have tried to turn our beloved N.H.S. into a carbon-copy of your obviously failed for-profit system over the past 75 years or so and have never succeeded the vast majority of us Brits wouldn't put up with such nonsense and those same greedy politicians would be thrown out of office. It will make your all-American head spin at the speed at which we Brits can do things when we're of a mind to.
Pshaw, three Prime Ministers in the space of three months means nothing to most of us especially if we get King Charles III on our side. Regarding our Monarch it's they who ask politicians to form a government, i.e. who hire them to do so which means that it's also they who can fire them if they so choose. That happened with Queen Elizabeth II and her 'hiring' of both Bozo Boris and lettuce-head Liz ( Truss ) as well as her son, King Charles III, so he can boot Rishi Sunak out of office just as easily as he 'hired' him, can't he?
I dread the thought of an American style healthcare system .Michael Moore's film "Sicko" confirmed my views .It is tragic what they are trying to do to our NHS .
@@lesleysidhoum1779, considering that Michael Moore's film " Sicko " was released in 2007 you have to admit that your views are a bit outdated, aren't they?
As I said in one of my other comments on here our N.H.S. has been in operation for the past almost 75 years and the vast majority of our population hasn't known any other system of healthcare, have we? Only those of us who are aged well over 80 or in their 90's can remember how things used to be prior to its creation and introduction, aren't they?
If any of our Governments think that all of us Brits would put up with their intention to try to turn it into a wholly privatised system such as they have in the U.S.A. then they can think again because we'd all be up in arms against them. As something like that affects everyone irrespective of their ages or circumstances and we ordinary U.K. citizens obviously outnumber them they'd be digging their own graves politically-speaking if they tried to introduce such a system in this country, wouldn't they?
Additionally they'd have to completely overhaul the financing of our N.H.S. by getting rid of its current means of financing, i.e. by excluding Income Tax and National Insurance from the mix and then substituting both of them with private medical insurance for all of us throughout our entire lives, wouldn't they?
Simply put, as our N.H.S. is exactly that - OUR N.H.S. - and not theirs it's a publicly owned and financed organisation and they'd have to change its status through an Act of Parliament which means that, as with any other Act of Parliament, it has to be signed into law by King Charles III....even if it manages to get through Parliament in the first place that is. I doubt very much if the King would even agree to sign it into place, don't you? If he refused to sign it because he wouldn't want to create discord throughout the entire country his popularity would soar and those same politicians who took it upon themselves to try to pass such a law would end up on the scrapheap of history where they obviously belong, wouldn't they?
When Bernie says privatised health is a great idea cos 60000 deaths per year, highest drug costs etc etc there is actually a small group of people in the UK thinking yes a great idea! We want that
Everyone knows whomst I'm talking about but just in case it's the flipping Tories
Perhaps one of the most tragic aspects of American politics is that there is quite simply no one else that advocates for the working class like Bernie. The man is 81 years old and he has no obvious successor…
Pass on an education on eugenics. Once people are aware they will unite again. They're doing a damned good job of keeping us all divided and bickering.
this weighs heavily on my mind everyday.
The left needs to stop waiting for a leader to drop out of the sky for them. It isn’t going to happen in s political system rigged so badly as ours. Change starts with EVERYONE. Join unions, organize, fight back. There are millions and millions of us, yet power remains dormant when we rely solely on a broken system to represent us.
Alexandria Cortez could maybe, but she would have to switch his political position a lot and actually learn to negotiate with the Republicans, Bernie has sponsored many bipartisan bills (like veteran healthcare and pipeline cancellations) AOC needs to learn that type of diplomacy.
I ponder who would, if willing, to fill his shoes and continue the good fight for what is right, decent, and humane.
Bernie is among the best of us. I wish him a ridiculously long, long life
At the same convince younger people to become the next Bernie.
@@yvonneplant9434 this. Bernie and Corbyn and Lynch are amazing but they’ve spent their entire lives fighting for the cause, it is our job now to take notice and take the reigns and carry the message forward.
@@yvonneplant9434 Maxwell Frost, Katie Porter; two in Congress who carry the torch for working people, & they don't get that much coverage in the US. Katie Porter is running for the Senate in California & Maxwell Frost is only 26 years old (dem from Florida). The squad aren't the only ones who refuse to take corporate donations. Slowly, steadily, the ranks of Justice Democrats ( those who refuse big donations & who get elected thru grass roots organizing) is growing.
You can find RUclips clips of Porter & Frost questioning the status quo in congressional hearings, & they are dynamite.
@@brynawaldman5790 hmmm why doesn't the MSM cover Katie Porter ? rubbing my chin just can't seem to figure it out
@@harryballs7029 MSM is corporate controlled. Corporations control US elections. Katie Porter challenges this. Therefore they pretend she doesn't exist the way MSM pretended Bernie didn't exist (till his following got too big to ignore & then MSM lied about Bernie & about his supporters).
US healthcare is messed up. A mate of mine had a minor road related accident in US and needed surgery on his finger. Afterwards the hospital sent a bill to the insurance for over 40 grand. In the preceding couple days of stress they basically haggled them down to the low 20s. It’s madness and if you think the NHS is bad, it can be worse ppl. Stay safe…esp. if you’re in US
I had lower back surgery during the Pandemic, had to or I was going to loss the use of my legs..
My portion of the surgery is 65,000.
you read that right. I have 2 health insurances & still have to pay 65k, plus pay for my health insurance (359 - family plan) every month
@@itzmeagain3442 when I see how people like you struggle it makes me feel eternally thankful that I am Canadian. But it also makes me angry that because I was born Canadian I suffer way less. It's not right. My dad had a triple bypass. Not only did they not charge him a dime. They paid him a month fee for 6 months because the surgery put him out of the work force. This should be the minimum standard. No man should ever pay for the right to live.
Canadian here and I’ve said this for many years… Bernie is the most honourable politician I’ve seen in my lifetime in a global political system filled with dishonourable individuals.
It makes me sad. He's so underappreciated even criticized by the very people he works to protect
agree and good to remember that there are people in power positions who really, really care about fellow man
@gordon lemon - We had Dennis Kucinich. IMO Dennis always did what was right. Ralph Nader writes currently and holds a lot of politicians, government, corporations, and institutions to account. I'm kind of liking Jamie Raskin. AOC is another. Maybe Jakim Jeffries. On the right John Kasich had integrity. Of course, no chance he would ever succeed in today's Republican party. But yeah, Bernie is awesome!
So you must be proud of your Prime Minister and Jagmeet Singh ...because they fight for the working man ...just like Bernie !
Here in the ststes..it's the RepubliCONs that interfere with him..any greedy maggot..RepubliCONs ..Will hate him
Bernie is one of the best we have in America, At 81 he's still working tireless for the working class
And he's still sharp as a tack. If only there were more like him in the US and the UK.
Delighted to have him here in the UK. Always admired him from afar and his contributions to American politics. He's a legend. A politician that is actually for the people
Wouldn't think he's 81. Fairplay. I'm like him too. Obviously being British, I wouldn't say I know much about American politics. But what I do know, is that he is one hell of a man
you're fortunate he's still around or who else would there still be to say these things?
@@123Andersonev yes agreed. I quite like that lady from new York? Cortez? Like I said I know very little but your right there isn't enough of them.
Down the pub with Bernie? I envy you. Definitely someone I'd love to chat with over a pint.
Oli gets a regular amiable chat with Ian Hislop too. Get him, he's hoarding all the best job!
How long does it take to drink a pint? I'd love a week talking with him. I'd like to understand the world through his eyes. Just to know.
I do think we all live in a class system as was defined for me by India first. Most of us have been raised and educated to only be workers, not leaders.
@@theodoreroberts3407 Just order a pint of something you'll struggle to drink. Placenta.
America is currently plagued by the hydra-headed evil duo of inflation and recession. The worst part about this recession is that consumers are racking up credit card debt. In April alone, credit card debt went up 20% while rates have doubled in a year. Inflation is so high that consumers are literally taking debt for basic life necessities. Collapse has indeed begun..
Collapse is generous 1st time in our history with a full generation that wasn't taught financial literacy, civics, Google fixes their problems if their parents don't do it for them. Reckoning for participation trophies is incoming...
@thelastunicorn1987 -Hi, please how can i reach this CFA of yours??
@thelastunicorn1987 She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran a Google search for her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing...
Inflation is caused by printing more money. the cause of that was the money the Democrats spent on WAR FUNDING.
It is not a plague. A plague implies it was a unforeseen event. Our economy is designed to crash every 5 to 10 years and every time the wealthy get wealthier. Top 10 wealthiest people gained 4.7 trillion US dollars in wealth during the pandemic. That is where our money is, we just have to get it back and dismantle the system that made it possible.
I volunteered for the Bernie campaign last presidential cycle. I was furious how they screwed him over in the media. I am a leftist, Bernie isnt as left as america needs, or left by european standards, but he is one of the FEW ppl actually trying to fight for the american public.
It baffles me that Bernie Sanders, in Americas standards, is the most far left “evil commie” they can think of. I LOVE Bernie and agree with a great portion of his platform but there’s still things he says that makes me stop and go “I’m pretty sure I’m more leftist than Bernie 🤔”. If I was even remotely known in the American political sphere they’d probably hang me out to dry and rip my reputation to shreds
@@savannahhostetler3346 republicans think Biden is a socialist. Lol
I volunteered for him as well in WI. I fricking love that old fart. I'm also pretty far left on the political spectrum, & I totally agree that while Bernie isn't considered a "leftist" by European standards, politicians like him & AOC are as far left as we're gonna get in America. I mean, we got dumbasses here in America calling MF'n Joe a "socialist", so that gives u an example of how far right the republican & corporate/establishment dems have slid. It shoulda been Bernie as president in 2016 (he coulda beaten trump), then again in 2020, & if we're lucky enough that he runs again 2024 the GD DNC better stay TF outta the way. Love ya Bernie, you're 1 of the good ones.
#FEELTHEBERN2024!
Why are guys commenting as if the American mainstream isn't left?
No worse than he was screwed by the Democrats themselves... TWICE.
This is the only guy I want representing us on the world stage.
Would be a true definition of America being great.
This is Bernie at his best. I have always supported Bernie. Everyone should at least just listen to this great interview. Thank you, Bernie!!
Bernie is a gift to the United States unfortunately many Americans don’t recognize it.
They've been snowed by those ones who want to keep the status quo.
@@elirien4264 but more than that, they're are proud of their lack of knowledge that keeps them ignorant AND voting against their own well-being...it would be just sad, if it wasn't so unpatriotically pathetic...
To allow themselves to be conned by the wealthy class who pay out millions in lobbyist bribery to ensure they stay uneducated and indentured economically to a system that keeps them like livestock...
They are the true 'sheeple'...
Bernie is the real deal. If I can't have Jed Bartlett as my President, he'd be next.
Since Jed is a fictional character, Bernie would get my vote every time.
Unfortunately many Americans did not know what makes democracy work for the people.
he was a usefull idiot to nancy. nancy and hillary own this reprobate.
Wow, you got Bernie! And at 81 he's a year older than Biden, yet as sharp as a tack. Fucking love him.
Biden's just as sharp. Different is, Bernie doesn't stutter.
@@dblissmn Biden just has cancer removed
Bernie can literally run circles around Joe
Even the birds love his speeches. 🐦🕊🐣
@@dblissmn are you sure? The man seems to be losing it...
he's the only person you can actually trust in American politics bc he's been unapologetically fighting for the people since he started.
My sentiments exactly.
He’s part of the problem. He care for nobody but himself.
HE'S MADE MILLIONS OFF CAPITALISM FOOLS
@@pooh44100 Wow you definitely owned this conversation.
The level of intelligence you used to debunk everything Bernie said in this interview is astounding.
You are definitely a product of the American South Education System.
@@the_algorithm Your Liberal socialist skin is peeling I'm not from the South I'm from the same place Bernie's from NYC I live in Vermont and we are sick of this hypocrite
This man is such a US treasure in the truest sense of the word. The world needs people like this in enough numbers to change the world.
He votes for massive war budgets and doesn´t stand up against Biden privatizing Medicare. He is a fraud.
This man, and what he represents, keeps my faith in democracy and in the USA. Despite not being as acknowledged by your people as he should be.
Micheal Parenti as well.
A world treasure if you ask me , I support Bernie , he speaks so much sense 👍from Emgland
He’s so sharp and engaging, for 81 it’s wild.
Way better than our current leader 😂
If Bernie hadn't been screwed by the DNC/Hillary, he would have truly made us a great country.
And people wouldn't be making stupid, crude ageist slurs like that was normal.
From my perspective, this highlights the importance of having a competitive advantage as investors. Merely mirroring the market strategies of others is insufficient in achieving optimal results. I am currently grappling with the decision to invest in the current market, as it presents both uncertainty and opportunity. Could you share your insights on this matter?
Indeed, the recent market downturn serves as evidence that a vast majority of individuals lacked a sufficient understanding of the underlying financial dynamics at play.
Such market uncertainties are the reason I don’t base my market judgements and decisions on rumours and here-says, got the best of me 2020 and had me holding worthless position in the market, I had to revamp my entire portfolio through the aid of an advisor, before I started seeing any significant results happens in my portfolio, been using the same advisor and I’ve scaled up $450k within 2 years, whether a bullish or down market, both makes for good profit, it all depends on where you’re looking.
@@williamDonaldson432 Please pardon me, who guides you on the process of it all?
There are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with Annette Marie Holt for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
@@williamDonaldson432 Thank you for this tip. It was easy to find your coach. Did my due diligence on her before scheduling a phone call with her. She seems proficient considering her résumé.
American here, if you let the NHS be privatized untold amounts of suffering awaits you between denied care, receiving poor care, and choosing between receiving care or crushing debt. All this will go on as the healthcare companies bleed you for every last pence you have and will tell you to be grateful. If you think your healthcare is painful now you have no idea what pain awaits you if you privatize it.
Pharmaceutical Companies will get greedy. NHS is a better system don't privatize it.
Another Anerican here; UK, please, please don't let your healthcare system go private. Do whatever it takes to keep the system you have, long waits and all.
as a rural American, bear in mind, the health scare system here is just as slow and sometimes slower than the NHS is in 'underserved' (poor) areas.
Every last *penny.*
It's not only the care receivers who will suffer; doctors, nurses, all sorts of providers will burn out from the moral injury inflicted upon them day in day out from witnessing the patients they care for suffer and die.
Huge respect to Bernie!
He is a great talker. And Tweeter. And book writer. Somehow he simply folds like a tent for his good friend Joe Biden and votes EXACTLY like every other corrupt Dem. Huge respect!! He is as adept at fooling his fans as Trump is his.
@@daysjours Then you don't actually know how He votes then hmm 🧐. You gotta love Sectarian Lefties. Punch at every one of my allies cause I love losing. Nevermind He pushed the entire acceptable political spectrum to the Left by Miles. I wonder what you think of Ilhan Omar or AOC? I dread to think
He rolled over or he was just bs from the start
@@daysjours but at least he isn’t going around spewing hate and vitriol. What exactly have YOU done to help humanity??
@@dansmodacct no he's just voting to perpetuate endless war and propping up the military industrial complex. But yes trump is too. We can walk and chew gum at the same time
Most respectable man in politics
I remember Bernie’s campaign in 2020. Right before the pandemic… the last time I felt hope for my country.
Yeah he got robbed and so did the American people.
It was a shame we had to not vote for Bernie, and Vote for Biden to beat the republicans.
Bernie and Katie Porter 2024!!
@@HOHLfmly he took a fall because nance and hillary own him. don't be a fool.
How about in 2016?
Imagine popping into your local for a pint and seeing Bernie’s sitting there.
I'd be so excited to stay and listen in! If he opened up to others questions, I'd jump in and ask a few.
Bernie in a pub is heaven
I once destroyed a chair in the harlequin with my fat arse
He's not in the pub. Look at all the people at the bar and the woman sitting at the next table - they're a photo.
Is your local "Capitalist" and was the pint made by a "corporation"?
Thank you, friends across the pond for having Bernie, a true American hero! 🙇🏼♂️🙇🏼♂️🙇🏼♂️🙇🏼♂️🙇🏼♂️
You're welcome, now send us someone! We need more voices that take a stand for Working people.
@@Mysteriouso100 It's because they have a dedicated worker's party, whereas in the US the parties are so vague and dilute that you literally have the party of yes and no, and that always makes the vote no. It's stupid on purpose. We need more parties than red and blue meaningless and issue-specific canditates and campaigns that actually fix reality not remove rights like all the recent specific issues eliminating rich taxation, removing medical rights, etc.
Honestly if he chose to be an educator I'd attend his classes. He's soo good at explaining things in layman terms it's mind boggling.
When he said "we all know what the agenda is, let's not pretend about it" I had a tear in my eye. When you watch the status quo media discuss our lives it's like we're the weird ones for wanting to basically not die.
@@vdinh143 Yeah they treat us like radicals saying we want universal healthcare and trade unions. Even tho that's like the bare minimum in so many countries.
@@justaguy6216
They scream "That is _socialized_ medicine, horrors! You filthy COMMIE!"
Calling Bernie and me and the rest of his followers "commies" is all they got, but they keep saying it.
🎉Edit: actually a lot of them have decided that since all libtards/demonrats are, by definition, commies, it has lost its shock value. It is way scarier to froth and call us filthy anarchists (regardless of our individual hygienic practices).
Watch anything by Robert Reich. He is a Professor (you can find some of his lectures on youtube) who was Secretary of Labor under Clinton.
@@nightfall3605 Him and Professor wold are also really good educators. Not as good as the bern.
If the Dems had endorsed Bernie for president in 2016, Trump would never have afflicted the planet and the world would have been so much better. What a loss.
Absolutely -- and such was the amount of distrust the Clintons had accumulated over the years (partly earned, partly BS media coverage), a good many independent voters were simply looking to vote against the system. "Bernie if we can, Trump if we must" kind of thing.
Bernie gave us Biden who is 10x
worse than idiot Trump.
why do u say that? trump had good economic numbers. low unemployment, rising wages, and withdrew troops from the middle east
Bernie would have won❤
@@BOZ_11 Let's be real. The world was at economical peace that any politician could have just sat there for 4 years and claim their prize. It's not Trump's achievement. It was more about the people's.
It is always a pleasure to listen to Bernie...he talks so much sense.
Very inspiring man, these are the kind of politicians the world desperately needs.
When during the Trump administration the bottom 1/5th of wage earners had their incomes rise the fastest of all groups. That was the first time that had happened since the George W Bush administration.
Because both Trump and W. used Kennedy's theory of using lower taxes, less immigration, deregulation, and smaller government to tighten up the labor market. Which raises wages, allows mobility, allows for advancement, and gives people dignity.
Compare that to the Democrat policies of using high taxes, over regulation, open immigration, and big government to put permanent slack into the labor market. Which drives down wages and drives up housing prices at the same time, to the point tens of millions of people don't have any money left over at the end of the month. And it's the low wages at the bottom that allows the excesses at the top, causing the wealth gap.
Raising the bottom 1/5th of wage earners wealth relative to everyone else is something liberals will never be able to do because of their policies.
Whether unwittingly or intentionally, Bernie's policies are the cause of the wealth gap.
If Bernie actually cared about poor and working class people, Bernie would be a Kennedy/Reagan conservative.
@@practicaliching2311 Bernie’s policies??? Remind me again when Bernie was in power? What a load of crap
Yes the world needs more career politicians that pander to young people and never deliver.
@@tyc6268 Not really pandering to young people he has held these beliefs for decades
@@VrKx he’s a lifelong politician, I’m sure he has pandered for decades, yet here we still are.. waiting for him to actually do something.
Well done, PoliticsJoe! Massive success with getting this interview!🔥🔥
The thing that really stood out for me was when he said productivity has increased so much but wages in real terms have shrunk
And wages followed productivity for decades until about the late 70s early 80s. They diverged and have since keep growing farther apart.
Where's all this increases productivity??? Cause it must be invisible
@@thedeadd.c.207 automation and technology...do you still write letters sent through the internal post in your office? i just type an email!
Bernie is so intelligent - he's been telling us this for decades, but the ignorant people who can't stand liberals just don't want hear it cause they're afraid.
Thank you for this interview!
Pretty much.
The problem is more likely, this guy has people fooled into thinking he is so intelligent.
Liberals don't listen either. Back in 2020, when my husband and I voted for Bernie, our very liberal Seattlite MIL was very disappointed in us and said Bernie is "too radical." 🤦
He's not even considered very left, let alone "radical" in other actually developed countries! Honestly, I've learned here that "educated" liberals are just as nimby as right wingers and super classist. They're just as stuck in their own little bubbles and oblivious to what regular working class Americans are going through.
@@dingledberried1472 thats not more likely hes been openly spouting intelligence for a while now. Most likely your just one of the insulted.
I am not insulted. Bernie is not for 'the people', Bernie is for Bernie. Here's a man who never worked a job in his life. Then he score's a "job" getting payed off of the taxes taken from the paycheck of the hard working American taxpayer. Now he knows exactly how to spend your hard earned, then government confiscated, dough. How could you even respect a guy like that?
I have followed Bernie since the beginning of his career. This is a true blue , real deal man. ❤ He has worked tirelessly for the people and is much loved.
I love that he has to take a deep breath to collect himself before talking about wage stagnation lol, we need more like him
Great interview. Bernie Sanders provides some hope in a depressing world. Wishing him many more years to Fight the Power. ❤🙌
It’s been very interesting to see over the recent years actual real British people and their bewilderment when they hear what it’s actually like here. People free from our media machine. And I’m glad they’re getting one of the few last real Americans here to listen to.
I love when Bernie gestures to his 15 year old suit from Kohls as a “distinguished three piece suit”. Love you Bernie
How many homes at what value? Bernie makes valid points, and crony capitalism needs to be dismantled, but God, why can't we learn from history that socialism is no answer?
He owns 3 giant mansions. He is a fraud.
@@b.b.2684 Hes old and worked as politician all his life he could have 20 mansions m8 easily with just salary.
@@zertun2380 nope! Not even close - if he was as socialist as he claims, he would be giving that money away to the needy. But instead, like all greedy socialists, he will cry that no one else is giving their wealth away, and demand to raise others' taxes. From the mind of children.
@@b.b.2684 you just use that as an attempt to undermine his cause. He can be both a millionaire and fight for common good.
Love hearing from Bernie, its a wake up call to be reminded just what happens when you let private interests into your health system.
‘It’s a wake up call'. You’re correct you’re correct he woke up those willing to listen to him, while Republicans are complaining about those who are woke.
Bernie Sanders❤ Loved by so many. Truly a humanitarian. He’s the only politician that makes sense. He has inspired many college students to vote. He is so important to our nation.
I love the way he uses the US as an example to say "look, we're all in this together", divided we beg united we bargain ✊
👍Not Me, US!👍
Which is why capitalism has been mounting an unyielding "divide and conquer" campaign against the working class for DECADES.
@@laluba3603 YES! That is the thinking that will move us forward. When we all think like amigos, there are no enemigos.
Bernie is a gifted speaker, he makes socialist ideas very accessible and appealing
Socialist ideas ARE appealing
The problem is The Red Scare - and he breaks down those walls
Those who are my age in the US and were raised on the red scare and the idea that capitalism is the best system are slowly dying out. And the young progressives are taking over. Thank God!

I bought Bernies recent book, the one they have on the table. Waiting for it to arrive as I'm really keen to read it. He is one of my heroes.
Thank you for this interview. Very easy to see why so many younger Americans find him so appealing, It's a shame he didn't he became the Democratic Parties nominee in either of the last two races.
Because Americans find him far too left wing
@@thejamesone7633 **the establishment**
@@thejamesone7633 Yeah, the media totally didn't do it's best to tank his last run for the candidacy with nonsensical allegations of him being sexist or anything.
SANDERS 2024
@@thejamesone7633 Americans want him. Corporations fear him. Democrats sabotage him.
Love that everybody in the bar is riveted. No pretending 'business as usual'.
This man is so great he brought a tear to my eye listening to his wisdom
The people in the background suddenly became a still life painting when Bernie started to speak lol
What I love about Bernie, is that he is so spot on. Major news networks don’t even want to talk about it. Whether you agree or disagree with his ideas, they are important enough to be discussed and known by everyone. Most people either don’t know or have kept their heads in the sand over this.
No one is more hated than he who speaks the truth. -- Plato
Bernie is a class act!
The Real Thing.
Bernie is such an engaging individual with a lifetime of experience that talks so sense and related to working class people. He understands and articulates a far greater understanding of the struggles of working class people than our own politicians do in the UK. Just to think this man was almost the US president… just think what could have been. I really hope the UK takes notice. We have to get to a point where we bring people up and work to level wealth equality.
You have no idea how aggravating it is as an American to watch us whiff on him twice for freaking trump and Biden. Only politician I have fully trusted in my life.
@@observersnt what by Christ are you referring to?
@@mitchellhannula1 I think Biden gets an unfairly bad press. It's not lost on me that out of all the moderate wing politicians in the Democratic Party, Bernie Sanders gets on better with Biden than any of the others, and there are sound reasons for that. But 2016 sticks in my craw and always will. Talk about looking a gift horse in the mouth.
Bernie Sanders is the US equivalent of our
Jeremy Corbyn. A brilliant socialist with a vision and an agenda plus the guts to push his vision. High time working people worldwide stood up to the right wing and breathed new life into the socialist movement, othe rwise this whole planet is doomed.
Wow. We are doomed indeed.
This was a GREAT talk with this Brilliant, Compassionate, Powerful, Devoted, Courageous, Very Wise man. Thank you, Bernie Sanders, for explaining the US political system in SUCH a clear, honest, understandable way. I applaud Bernie Sanders for his defiant, hard work on behalf of Americans. I SO HOPE & PRAY that millions of United States residents will hear & read his Outstanding ideas & GREAT Knowledge about our Nation. He IS a TRUE HERO! Bravo!! I'm saving & sharing this video. Thank you for those who produced this & for those who posted it. dw
I went to college in the US, and I had a minor injury in my wrist, so I went to the doctor, left without paying anything. To later receive a letter with a bill for almost 15k for only basically x-ray, pills for pain and swelling, and a physical. I had insurance and they didn't want to cover almost anything so I had to fight it, until they ended up convering about 12k, I mean if you see it like that then you don't think it's that bad but still 3k for an x-ray is just insane.
The American healthcare system is bull shit.
It is insane. Our so-called health-care system is horrible for everyone, including a lot of the people who work in it.
And the energy and wherewithal to fight the original bill. Let's say you're a single mother from crappy school working full-time as cna . The last thing you'll have a clear mind to do is navigate the complications of healthcare system that makes it hard to settle a bill like that fairly. These are people bernie stands for
Your treatment description and cost doesn't make sense.
@@palerider7924 yea thats the whole point. that it doesn't make common sense. The costs are never reasonable. But they do it because they want maximum money always. Care and affordability mean little
God I love Bernie. I hope he makes his way to Scotland, I'd love to meet him. I love the fact that everyone is listening to him with rapt attention.
Bernie is a great speaker and my hero. I wish he had made the nomination in 2020…
Love you . Man hope you're ideas will happen so that you live to see them. Bless you
The world needs political leaders like this man. Whatever your political agenda, no one can deny his sincerity and willingness to support, back and standup for the working class.
Bernie is a grifter. Hes all talk.
When Bernie has had the power to make change, he sides with the establishment. Every single time, Please just watch.
@@DYKWINNINGSanders may not win all battles, but every victory is a small step towards improvement. His message has not changed over the years, and has been an encouragement for many to pick up the fight. So something good came out of it, even if you don't see it. You can't flip over a switch expecting everything to turn into rainbowland. That's exactly how movies program our way of thinking, to think that every fight has to have all the best possible outcomes. Sometimes things take longer, but it has to be set in motion.
Young men sit in the shadows of trees that others planted before them.
@@zensoredparagonbytes3985 @Dyk-imWINNING has this naive mentality that Bernie could get more things done if he worked outside the establishment. People like @DYK-imWINNING are quick to criticise Bernie and slow to criticise neoliberals and conservatives. Bernie has already achieved quite a lot, he has had more amendments than any other politician in the US. He has increased the min wage, increased funding for veterans, increased funding for social works and welfare, increase support for unions and still stands on the picket lines, when as a politician inside the establishment he could simply be toeing the line and taking his pay check. Instead he fights against his own party in a way that they still respect him enough to put in in a position to take charge of the national budget. Yes things could be much better, but they could also be much worse. Bernie has always committed himself to the cause against all odds, without being stupid enough to have been forced outside of the establishment.
@@zensoredparagonbytes3985
I said, "When Bernie has had the power to ACTUALLY MAKE CHANGE, (the change Bernie constantly preaches) Bernie sides with the establishment"
You want change yes? Bernie is all talk no action. You can support the person and criticize them at the same time
@@DYKWINNING imagine thinking one man has the power to completely sidestep the establishment.
You are a child.
I wonder if Bernie knows that the Politics Joe team are the ones who filmed and popularized that viral video telling people around London how much medical bills are in the USA. Very glad and happy for the team and for us all that this interview happened.
That was a VERY good video!
I find it troubling that people who don’t have much are still willing to defend the system that fucks them…
Part of that problem is one-issue voters. Like people who will vote Republican because they’re against abortion, even though the Republican they voted for will screw the voter over in every other way.
A man I can truly look up to
Yeah, same here. I may have found a hero in Bernie.
I am very sorry that you grew up without a father who was worthy of looking up to. It would be interesting if that unfortunate trait was the common link explaining Bernie's fanbase.
I love uncle Bernie! I am so glad to see that his interviews are getting seen and posted and listened to by reasonable people. As a Canadian, I have it a little better than they do in the United States, but I fear for the welfare of the planet because of this system of corporate greed and the almighty buck.
It's disgusting and it's criminal. If you want to be a billionaire be a billionaire, but do something with that money. Don't just squander it on pretty women and fancy parties and huge houses that you only live in two rooms of. Uno don't get me started
i.e., Do not hoard your wealth. Do not take money out of the economy.
Keep up the good work you do Bernie. Its touching. Its touching seeing your efforts with Unions and I'm going to buy your book as soon as I can afford to.
Really enjoying these interviews Bernie's doing in the UK.
Bernie Sanders is awesome. He speaks the truth and is not afraid and is not bought off. Why don't we have more courageous people who want to work for the general public?? Why is he so unique? We need thousands more like him, then we could have a government that works for us. Thank you bernie.
The big problem in American society and political system is that money isn't concedered as a means or tools, but as an end in itself...!
We pay for HEALTHCARE via tax national insurance and the con is we will pay twice if more and more insurance companies get their claws into our NHS😠
Twice? TWICE?
Me and my partner each pay around £40 in NI each month
Our friend in Florida pays $400 per month in private insurance for that same access
Twice is MASSIVELY optimistic
Unfortunately the NHS is being privatised before our very eyes.
@@danielcrafter9349 and even with insurance Americans have to part pay. My retired cousin is one of them, who struggles at times to buy her prescriptions and care.
The trouble is in the UK there are also millions who struggle to pay for their prescriptions and care.
Gonna cost ya 50 grand when that BMW driver crashes into ya.
at the tories are working towards exactly that
Share, share, share. People need to see this and appreciate the reality of what we could be facing on health care.
We love our Bernie!!❤❤❤
Fascinating man, the world needs to listen to Bernie Sanders. And another great interview politics joe, thanks
Again, he is on the mark. There is a need for more people like Bernie
Bernie is a rockstar. He’s authentic and has stayed true to his values for 188 years. My favorite T shirt is a Rage Against The Machine T shirt with a giant picture of Bernie’s face on it.
Holy fuck, hes looking amazing for 188 years old!
They call him a socialist for common sense ideas. In my 60 years every sector of the economy has been taken over by 3 or 4 corporations and maximizing shareholder value has become their only concern. The rail freight industry is in the news lately for obvious reasons, the company that derailed a couple trains in Ohio reported a profit of 40 cents on the dollar. Hey, that's great if you're doing it right for everyone. It sounds to me like their customers are being gouged, East Palestine got a raw deal, whoever is buying the freight their trains delivered is getting squeezed, what's left of their workforce is getting shafted. And, this is how every corporation operates!!
That shirt sounds awesome ❤
If I ever have to sit in a pub for an interview, may it be this one. How lovely that people were quiet and rapt. Thank you all!
They're quiet because they are genuinely interested in hearing what Senator Sanders has to say
I wish we had more politicians like Bernie.
He cares about the poor. I love Bernie!
We need politicians who know what poverty is.
The only politician who is known
for being exactly the same
on and off camera
That's true. He lives near me and I've met him several times. He's the sweetest man you could ever meet. He's more of a social worker than he is a politician. No ego at all.
This is gold dust, what a wonderful interview and interviewee.
My family and I got to have dinner with Bernie at community event in Rutland, Vermont when he was still our congressman. I had heard rumors he wanted to run for the open senate seat in our state and I got to ask him first hand and tell him he had my support. I had been following his career since he first became mayor of Burlington. Bernie is the real deal like no one else in politics, a genuine, caring human being. And he has never changed his stance, always fighting for the working class.
Thank you Bernie Sanders. We should all be listening and following his advice.
the best 36 minutes spent on RUclips. I love Bernie.
I agree, it was immensely uplifting.
Love you Bernie. Wish it could have been you.
A wonderful human being. Great interview, thanks.
It hurts me so much that this man will never be given the respect he deserves because they want to make everyone fear the socialist. He truly understands the frustration of the people and has no problem calling out people no matter their party, he will be a major part of our revolution
He's a social Democrat not socialist
@@susanboswell4117 I know, but hell always be labeled as one
Mr. Sanders ....we love you! I can't thank you enough.
Respect Bernie for speaking truths
One of the greatest men alive today
Articulate and knowledgeable yet funny & relatable, now I understand why the elites dislike Bernie so much.
The only politician left in the world who's soul isn't for sale.
I mean theres quite a few but the powers that be always try to keep them out of the limelight.
@@mallardofmodernia8092 ... the powers that shouldn't be...
He is sweet. Unfortunately it doesn't make him automatically a good politic. He is a good man tho.
@@SofiaZaitseva did someone suggest that "sweetness" is the reason he should have been nominated in 2015 and become President?
Bernie's a Judas. When push came to shove in both 2016 and 2020 he folded to an establishment that was never going to let him win the Democratic Party primary and then went on to be their bitch. He had a massive movement and he dropped it like a hot brick because he was scared he was going to end up in the political wilderness. He should've run 3rd Party. The majority of American voters identify as independents and Bernie knew that, but didn't have the balls to see it through
Imagine the world if Bernie was Prez! Great job as always Joe!
The problem with this otherwise great man is the USA foreign policy would not change under him. Sad, but true. It's just the way it is with the USA.
@@lat1419 true, but I feel like our current domestic policies have been tanking. In both the past 2 administrations
@@goldenoodles6281 when your military industrial complex and its insatiable appetite for foreign war takes all the wealth, it IS A PROBLEM for domestic policy.
I love Bernie. He seems to really care for people and the poor.
For many many years, always had great respect for you Mr Bernie Sanders. Thank you!!!
The swimming pool analogy is really good and I'll remember that
What a loss his eventual passing will be to the world. Keep well Bernie
As an American who lived in the UK for over 19 years, the USA is really trying to make me regret coming back.
Really think UK going down hill and I left for France
I have had a similar experience.
Its a world issue. Putin tried empowering the eugenicists while brainwashing the youth. His invading nazis. It will pass once we scrub that rat and follow all the little trails of pee he left while he snuck about securing world leaders. Boris..trump..
Feel free to go back, good riddance to bad garbage
@@Rover19666 though your response is not to me, I find it offensive, extremely rude and uncivil, unpatriotic, and totally un-American. It is attitudes like yours that are ruining our country, and you ought to be ashamed of such an attitude. How would you like someone to call you bad garbage, just because their legitimate expression differs from yours???!!!🤔🤔🙄😒
I love you. I love Bernie. That's it. ❤️
Ive been in that pub often when I lived in the UK. Love it! Love Brenie as well.
As he said, social housing, healthcare, education its a no brainer
Bernie's point about crime is very true and it's great to hear it from a Senator. Our leaders engage in some of the most criminal acts, but they aren't labeled as such because they're in charge.
There's a poem called Protest by Ella Wheeler Wilcox, this is a part of it -
"The few who dare, must speak and speak again
To right the wrongs of many. Speech, thank God,
No vested power in this great day and land
Can gag or throttle. Press and voice may cry
Loud disapproval of existing ills;
May criticise oppression and condemn
The lawlessness of wealth-protecting laws
That let the children and childbearers toil
To purchase ease for idle millionaires"
Unfortunately, the corporate press mostly tries to justify these societal ills.
One of the best presentations I've heard from Senator Sanders
Please keep up the good work
Wish you were the one running for prez
Bernie, I love you so much. ❤ Excellent interview in UK with PoliticsJoe. You were at your best with him-endlessly fascinating, endlessly teaching-which is NOTHING new! The
more I hear you speak the more I learn and the more I remember. I’m so grateful for everything you say and everything you do for we the people. I see your lovely Jane there in the background watching over you-if you’ll allow me to to make such an observation?😊 All my best wishes for you and Jane always.
Wonderful speaker, big congrats to Bernie and PJ for a brilliant interview.
Great conversation, so glad these conversations are happening, power to the people
Incredible man. Brilliant article.
I wouldnt often use this term, but he really is awe inspiring
Ahhh breath of fresh Bernie. You are an inspiration. Thanku thanku thanku.
