Bernie calling the GOP "Stalinist" is deeply unserious behavior, and Bernie's role has been historically to serve as a sheepdog for the DNC. He opposes the DNC like Chomsky opposes the US, loud critique until it comes time to toe the party line. Correctly pointing out that Bernie calling the GOP "Stalinist" is absurd is not "parroting Russian propaganda."
