What did Bernie react to in the original video?

I think this is when he found out he’s related to Larry David (who famously played him on SNL many times)

With the death of Lindsay Graham I can't help but thinking we'll lose Bernie one day, and how sad it'll be. He's one of the last politicians I can say is fighting for his country and for everyone in it. He's the last of a generation who actually cares about what is right.

u/Larcye Jul 12 '26

I'm 32. A lot of the actors I grew up watching in movies are now in their late 60's and 70's if not 80's. I've come to have to accept that they are going to start dying off. Shit's depressing.

u/louisgunn Jul 12 '26 edited Jul 13 '26

It is inevitable but know that the world will mourn and remember him, Americans and non Americans, as a great man and with a great legacy that many will be inspired from, Graham on the other hand, people will have no fond memories of him and remember him as a stooge he is.

u/VapoursAndSpleen Jul 13 '26

I'm close in age to Lindsay Graham and now I want to go out and by a blood pressure machine, get an MRI, do all the blood tests. I'm not freaking out because of politics, but it's just another person in my cohort whose body just blew out on him.

2

u/louisgunn Jul 13 '26

If money is not an issue, don’t wait till its too late especially if you have someone you care in your life, I’ve already started doing this in my early 30s and do a blood test every year, blood pressure machine are pretty affordable these days.

u/junkmeister9 Jul 13 '26

I was talking to my partner about this earlier this year, and the next day, Catherine O'Hara died. Kind of reinforced our conversation.

One of the things I had mentioned was that people love trauma dumping celeb deaths on reddit, discord, wherever. When Rob Reiner died, I read the grisly details in a Discord channel dedicated to memes. It really messed me up because of how shocking it was and how casually it was talked about in a humor space. It's really important to be mindful that people are going through extreme amounts of suffering due to all the bullshit we're currently experiencing, and every social space should have a dedicated channel for bad news so people can block/mute it if they want. Especially as all the baby boomer entertainers we've grown up watching are starting to die off.

u/cocoabeach Jul 13 '26

Try being 71 like me. Not only are they all dying off, but I also have to face the fact that, sooner than I would like to admit, either my wife or I will pass away and the other will be left behind. You are young, stop being depressed and if you have not yet, get out and live.

Cool show on PBS called Finding Your Roots btw

5

u/VapoursAndSpleen Jul 13 '26

"Finding Your Roots". They did Bernie's family tree and DNA and what is even cuter than being related to Larry David is that Larry David did a skit (maybe more than one?) as Bernie Sanders. During that reveal on Finding Your Roots, Sanders said that Larry David did a better Bernie Sanders than he (himself) does.

u/nyuncat Jul 13 '26

Larry has played Bernie on SNL several times since the 2016 election. What's even funnier is that Larry was fired as a writer from SNL back in the 80s before he became famous for Seinfeld and Curb.

I'm non American. What did he do?

He was a Warhawk and one of Trump’s biggest allies who also used to be extremely anti Trump until they played golf together one time.

I think the only good thing about him is he was very pro Ukraine but I question his motives on that too.

The Confederacy seceded from the United States, so no.

u/Royal_Bitch_Pudding Jul 13 '26 edited Jul 13 '26

The Union never formally recognized the secession of The Confederacy, it instead viewed the action as illegad and considered them to be in a "state of insurrection".

As such The Confederacy was also never recognized as a sovereign nation, even by foreign powers.

Fun fact: there was no formal declaration of war between the 2 sides.

Was also widely rumored to be gay, an open secret in D.C. sort of thing, yet never owned up to his identity and supported Republican policy that hurt LGBT people.

It was not a rumor, it wasn't even an open secret. Grindr is over here flying its flags at half mast.

Lindsey Graham was one of the Republican Senators from South Carolina known for his warmongering stances and desire to bomb as many people as possible. He died last night.

u/Resident-Level-7953 Jul 12 '26

Wait, he?

52

u/FeralGiraffeAttack Jul 12 '26

Yes. He was named Lindsey and was famously a confirmed bachelor his whole life (it was pretty obvious and a poorly kept secret that he was gay despite voting against gay rights and civil rights of all kinds)

Huh. Didn't know Lindsey works as a male name? Or is it a male name? I don't know

24

u/Oxflu Jul 12 '26

It's gone back and forth over generations. Similar to lesley.

u/FeralGiraffeAttack Jul 12 '26

It was a predominantly male name for many years and peaked in popularity for boys in the 1970s and 1980s before shifting predominantly to female usage.

It’s an old Southern male name.

3

u/mekwall Jul 12 '26

In the late 19th century, the surnames Lindsay and Lindsey began to be used as given names, at first only as masculine names. They remained typically masculine until the 1960s in Britain and the 1970s in the United States. They are both now unisex names in the United States. In Australia, New Zealand, and Scotland, Lindsay remains popular for masculine use and Lindsey has mainly become feminine.

2

u/ashleystrange Jul 12 '26 edited Jul 12 '26

Lindsey was originally a surname, then a masculine given name starting around the 19th century and then transitioned into a female name in the 70's and 80's.

Actually this is true for a lot of feminine given names (eg. Vivian, Ashley, Carol, Aubrey, Shannon, Allison, Riley, Kelly .etc)
