that what they should be afraid of are the banks , corporations and billionaires are doing and will do to this country and the world . But instead they are told to be afraid of brown skinned people , religions other than their own and "lefties" who want to take the guns away. It's pounded into their heads by the media daily.

I put a space after the first two slashes to see if just the text of the link would show up otherwise the image would.

It says... over a picture of Bernie... next to his image:

"Once in a while an honest man comes along and has the peoples' interests at heart. We have one now.

I think you can get to it if you right click where the image should be and then click "view image". That's how I get the image links. I'm curious if you can do that in the OP. Will help you in the future if you run into the same problem if it works.
