If you’re gonna be a Bernie Sanders surrogate, you’d sure as hell better be willing to stick your neck out for communism. So hats off to Bernie for finding a real gem in Brianna Westbrook.
Yesterday, the State Department sent out a tweet marking the National Day for the Victims of Communism:
Today, on the National Day for the Victims of Communism, we remember the millions who died living under oppressive communist regimes. We stand with those who continue to suffer as they fight for the freedoms that should be afforded to all. https://t.co/6C6F89gI83 pic.twitter.com/y8dY8qZJAx

A somber occasion honoring the memories of more than 100 million people killed as a result of communist government brutality. But Westbrook thinks we should be a lot more upset about another group of victims:
When is the day for victims killed by U.S imperialism? https://t.co/z5pICRgrMq

Great take, Brianna!

Only here, in this verdant garden of terrible takes, are you rewarded for whitewashing the murderous history of communist rule and making moral equivalencies to 19th Century American conduct. But those takes are flourishing today. It's a bad look. Don't do it. https://t.co/oYnWs66Nvl

At least we can take comfort in one thing:
LMAO
Bernie Sanders will never be president https://t.co/OrOIZKTGDp
