Posting this here for those who would like to vote for a Democrat, just not the one that will screw us all over. Bernie Sanders seems like the best way to go.
I almost never get into politics, but he really does seem to have a lot of good stuff going for him!
Happy to see this, I’ve really wanted more info regarding him.
EVERYBODY VOTE FOR BERNIE IN THE PRIMARIES. HE IS OUR LAST CHANCE.
This post is incredibly inaccurate. There are so many errors in this graph for all candidates!I am critical of Hillary Clinton too and I’m a full-on supporter of Bernie Sanders but this graphic does not reflect the candidates’ views on issues. I researched these candidates fully to create a more accurate graphic below, with the errors I corrected circled in red. But I strongly urge everyone to see this post with my own graphic that gives the candidates a more accurate a letter grade for each issue and provides sources and commentary on their views. Please boost that post in the link.
Notice that Hillary Clinton’s section and Rand Paul’s are the most inaccurate. Hillary Clinton’s seems to have been edited to make her look more conservative and Rand Paul’s seemed to erase the libertarian leanings he has on social issues.
One thing I want to mention is that Bernie Sanders is the real deal. He appears to be a progressive and it’s super exciting to see him run. Him over Hillary Clinton 1,000,000%. BUT THERE’S NO EXCUSE FOR MISINFORMATION! Especially misinformation this egregious. Hillary Clinton literally championed universal healthcare as first lady and Rand Paul has continually spoken out against the NSA. Just inexcusable.
Here’s what you’ll need to know!

MALNOURISHMENT
DEATH: average – 21 days (3 weeks), max ever recorded – 70 days (2.3 months)
6 HOURS: grouchiness and hunger due to lack of glucose.
24 HOURS – 48 HOURS: hunger very apparent; pains in stomach; body has entered ketosis and is using fatty acids as energy.
72 HOURS+: muscles begin to get broken down for energy.
You will become: increasingly depressed, irritable, hysteric apathetic; decline in concentration, comprehension and judgement; social isolation and withdrawal; possible self-harm.
If your character doesn’t eat for 5 consecutive days, they are at risk of Refeeding Syndrome. This is extremely dangerous and can be fatal.
Psychology of starvation based on the above experiment.
DEHYDRATION
DEATH: average 3 days; some live 8 – 10 days
for the calculations: TWV = total water volume in body; average adult loses 2.5 litres of water per day.
Assuming that your character does not eat, drink or absorb any moisture.
9 HOURS/2% TWV: thirst, discomfort, dry skin, loss of appetite; 50% loss of performance for athletes; elevated body temperature, rapid heartbeat, fatigue, dizziness when standing, decreased fluid secretion (sweat, urination, tears, etc).
24 HOURS/6% TWV: sleepiness, severe headaches, nausea, tingling in limbs.
DEATH: not known, but can stay awake for 11 days; max chronic sleep deprivation ever recorded (until death) – 6 months.
NOTE: This does not mean you can stay awake for 6 months. It means you can survive that long with chronic sleep deprivation – going days without sleep and then sleeping once or twice.
24 HOURS: mental ability impairment of someone who has blood-alcohol content of 0.10%; everything is worse – emotional control, memory, attention, decision-making, hand-eye coordination.
36 HOURS: hormonal spikes everywhere; losing time; lack of motivation; head buzzing like you’re dehydrated.
48 HOURS: microsleep, regardless of what you’re doing (you fall asleep for 1-30 seconds and then become disorientated);
72 HOURS+: say goodbye to higher mental processes like decision-making and planning. Also, say good bye to saying goodbye because even simple conversations are hard.
80 HOURS+: … and hello, hallucinations!
