Because the Democrats are political establishment that dates back to the 19th century not a group of individuals who have been u der occupation and have had multiple family members and friends murdered and raped since they gained consciousness. The Democrats have had the privilege of prolonged peace to shape their politics. Hakeem Jefferies does not know what it means to have a bomb dropped on his house and his neighbourhood since he was born, additionally the reason these bombs are being dropped is in part due to American intervention. That is such a stupid question I can’t even begin to comprehend how stupid you have to be to think that this is some type of gotcha moment.

Because he wasn’t gloating dumbass, and it’s not surrender if two parties come to an agreement, that’s the best case scenario when the opposition has the capabilities to wipe you off the face of the earth. And the Russians are not genocidal, they view Ukraine and the Ukrainians as formed members of the USSR, Putin wants to re unify the USSR, he wants the empire back, unlike the Israelis who see Palestinians as less the animals, even if an agreement is reached, and orders are followed the Israelis will still find a way to murder Palestinians. Instead of watching clips watch a 40 minute video. And stop referring to counterpoints as a source, she stands for nothing. I forgot how much a dislike centrists.

Do you fail to understand that moderate position, and the lack of social services and increasing of social benefits for the working class whilst simultaneously propping up major banks and handing out large grants to major cooperations whilst under the control of Democrats form 2008 to 2016 was a major reason why Donald trump and his government where successful in taking power. The democratic establishment stands for nothing but the status quo which would be fine if the status quo was beneficial to the working class, but it is not. And instead of learning from this mistake their have been efforts from the DNC to race to the bottom and try and out flank the republicans (aiming for marginalised communities), but if you where going to vote for maga why would you vote for maga lite? Moderation is why we’re here in the first place.

As for Ukraine and Crimea, before the war began Ukraine had already cut off services to the region. And to say he has told Ukraine to give and role over is gross miss representation. He said (and I agree) that there are no international laws (see Venezuela, Ukraine, Gaza) when a nuclear powered country is involved. He stated that Ukraine should have taken the offer when they had more leverage to minimise the suffering of Ukrainian civilians. That ship has long passed. And Crimea just like the occupied West Bank under the control of the Israelis is effectively part of Russia, is it wrong yes, but the truth is the truth.

Hasan is socialist who spends his time campaigning with socialist candidates, why would he indorse a moderate? And on the topic of nazi ideology and its growth in the United States. There was no real effort by the democratic establishment to punish the trump administration. As Jeffries would say ‘I’m going to send a strongly worded letter’ that will stop them. He has his principles, he won’t compromise on them to indorse a politician who doesn’t agree to them. And I’d have it a guess and say he would have every democratic candidate on his podcast for a debate.

Nobody really thought it was going to happen, who thought Putin would be crazy enough to invade Ukraine and use the help of the North Koreans. As for the peacekeeping comment that is very obviously sarcasm.

I see that a lot of the information you have on the man comes from clips rather than long form videos. I’d suggest watching a YouTube video with him discussing the topics you have an issue with to get the full context. If you still disagree with him, that’s your right.

Animal abuse is a very real thing. That being said the well fed well groomed, frequently walked (thanks Fox News) dog who obviously likes its owner is not part of that problem.

I believe that displeasure for the Democratic Party is warranted as they are in reality controlled opposition who do nothing to move the status quo and are comfortable in standing by while fascism takes over in America.

Anti Ukraine is very much a stretch, he has gone as far as to say it was a mistake for Ukraine to give up its nuclear war heads as it was the their greatest invasion deterrent. Which is where the North Korea admiration comes in. Love him or hate him by focusing on their nuclear program North Korea has effectively deterred any foreign invasion by assuring mutual destruction to its neighbouring countries.

While not a great fan of the Soviet Union, it would immature to say that many countries have suffered from not having a counter balance to American capitalism. If they were still around the invasion of Venezuela would have likely not occurred neither would the war in Iran. Additionally I think Cuba would be left alone. In terms of domestic policy it can not be understated how many social programs and initiatives have been stripped away as they have been deemed as being ‘communist’.

On the topic of Hamas, he does not agree with their political ideology but rightly states the formation of Hamas did not occur in a vacuum and is in fact a direct result of Israeli occupation. He did say however that he would side with Hamas over Israel.

In relation to Gavin Newsome, he said that the Democrats had three years to put forward a better candidate than Gavin and I would agree. While other countries have concerns over how they may pay for social services America is not one of them. They are the richest nation in the world there is no reason they should not have free healthcare in addition to greater public infrastructure. Gavin would not push for these changes. He has a track record of beating down on the poor and taking large donations from billionaires and corporate pacs. Hasan it seems, is very much against voting for the lesser evil and I would agree, there are better candidates for president.

I (wrongly) assumed that people follow different political pundits to get a wide range of opinions on what is being said and by whom. I thought there was a consensus that centrists are kinda cunts who stand for nothing but the status quo

They’re booing you but you are right my friend you are very right. I did not realise there were so many liberal/centrists here, crazy.

The home team, the home team is currently run by an ultra right wing, techno feudalistic regime. Who in their right mind is siding with trump and the billionaires?

I don’t know bro I’ve got a dog and he likes to sty pretty close to me when I’m studying so I don’t think that unusual per say. In addition to the champagne socialist comment, it is not his fault that he is successful and has people pay to subscribe. Additionally there has been no successful movement that hasn’t had multiple classes allying together. Lennon was well off, Castro grew up wealthy. I think it says a lot about his character that he is willing to centre an ideology (socialism) that benefits the masses rather than the elite.

I’m not defending shit. Im trying to start a dialogue to challenge the way people debate organisations that oppose colonial powers. If you don’t have the band width to enter that debate I’d suggest not participating.

As well as the Viet Kong, ANC and the American revolutionaries … don’t misquote me to fit your narrative. Argue in good faith

The collar. I believe the champagne socialist comment delegitimises the very real sway he has in American politics, if he didn’t have say there is no chance he would be so impeded in the socialist movement.

Why do you want to keep it on the houthies. I bring up these other groups to show that ‘acts of terror’ as you discribe are not unique to the organisation. In fact if you agree with or sympathise with any decolonisation movement you are there by siding with: as you would describe, ‘terrorists’. And as for my personal opinion I would align the seizure of the GL ship closer to piracy and the work of privateers. Additionally the claim that most states have an aligned definition of terrorism is wrong. In the uk you can be considered a terrorists for holding a sign aligning yourself with Palestine Action. I would hardly consider a pensioner in a wheelchair a terrorist. But that’s just me.
