Bernie and Jane Sanders are under criminal investigation for a deal which resulted in a 10 million property deal (https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2017/05/17/burlington-college-campus-purchase-still-coming-back-haunt-jane-sanders)). Jane was in charge of Burlington College. She lied on loan documents to obtain a loan and then used that loan to buy property. The property was bought from the Catholic Church in Vermont and this Church just so happens to be in debt for a sexual abuse scandal.
I have done limited research on this and results on what happened hasn't been easy for me to find. But get this. One of the head priests in this Church was a Kenneth Angell (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenneth_Angell)). This is from his wikipedia page, 'In 1989 he promised to "take care of it" when a Providence priest was accused of misconduct with boys while working at a Haitian orphanage'.
WTF is that, how is this topic of Haitian orphanages popping up in a Bernie Sanders criminal investigation about loans.
To sum up what happened. The Sanders helped to steal 10 million dollars and then funneled it off to a Church which has a proven record of sexual abuse of children and sexual abuse of children in Haiti.

Be pro nationalist, pro compatible peaceful cultures. None of that has anything to do with races. People need to stop conflating that.
Think of it like food. I like Hamburgers, I like Curry, I like Tacos, I even like fusions of them, but I still need to maintain a malleability of sorts so I can always separate them and not only have some shitty tasting stew.
Pretty much fuck all religions though.

It does seem religion is the core of most things vile, in the old days people were forced to convert to the dominate religion or be killed, so while i say i hate religions, i can't say i hate all adherents.
