I’m not going to down vote this because he does bring attention to topics that get sweep under the rug in the main stream but he’s had so many controversial moments that he refuses to take any fault on that is hard to be a fan of his now a days.

I would be interested in seeing some of those articles, I remember word going around about this and couldn’t find any proof other than Hilary Clinton saying she was compromised.

When she was running she was for 90 percent of Bernies policies with the added “no more wars” twist. It’s crazy to remember considering where she is now but that was the political path she was going for, along with blowing up Kamala and Pete on stage calling them out for being shit in generally.

Regardless, the point is do your homework when listening to professional liars giving their stump speeches.

I mean I like this guy’s message and he has been in front of this controversy from the start so that’s a good sign.

I warn you that sometimes these candidates can 180 on you.

Tulsi Gabard was a left adjacent alternative to Sanders and Warren until she didn’t find a path to victory and went to the “I left the left” play book. That one stung quite a bit for me.

John Fetterman was a blue collar pro union candidate until he had a giant stroke and still beat Dr. Oz and after that race has been a conservative in every but his party affiliation.

Kirsten Gillibrand was a strong progressive senator from New York that took over Hilary Clinton’s position and eventually became a democratic mouth piece that Schumer and the rest of the party rot has been known for.

The point is that these people have vested interests that don’t align with working American’s and this guy seems to be genuine which is why CNN and main stream media has had a hate boner for this guy.

That doesn’t make him instantly the hero but usually if these outlets are hating someone they are a threat to the establishment.

Use critical thinking and listen to arguments that make sense with research and history.

This is embarrassing as a nation, having cameras always on let’s us see how far we are falling constantly.

Looks like he’s about to read me slam poetry with those tiny little frames

It’s not the first time he put his foot in his mouth. Trump gave a speech from a teleprompter and didn’t do his typical ranting and Jones was gushing over him saying he was a real president.

He’s kind of a poster child for failed news media outlets. His opinions are generally aligned with his overlords but like with cable news he’s forgettable and has zero fan base.

I almost respect that more than the comedians that play it off as just another act.

I went and tried to find some redeeming quality about him and left with nothing. Still shouldn’t have been killed but man he’s not a person you would want to have a national holiday dedicated to.

Nah this dude is just mentally ill imo. He’s also 81 so he’s probably dealing with some sort of mental decline.

She’s not wrong. I don’t understand why our country hasn’t gone through divorce hearings yet.

There is my big wet baby boy! Let’s go!

The greatest trick the Republican party pulled was convincing people that its most unpopular ideas are entirely Democrats’ fault.

That’s called being politically savvy and out playing your competition which is why the Democratic party is always in free fall.

All this back and forth leads to this point: The Democrats are not equipped to handle a full assault of our democracy and thinking Gavin Newsom is the guy with some funny parrot tweets is not a real answer.

I would say the citizens that experienced the fall out from NAFTA that gutted blue collar jobs and created the rust belt would say “the big lump of shit with rat poison” was the Democrats that threw the working class overboard years ago.

Speaking of poison, it is the same reason residents of Michigan would rather vote Trump because the Democratic party and Obama would rather gaslight them about their water being safe to drink instead of charging the corporations that cut costs that polluted the water with federal charges. Obama also bailed out Wall Street and left hard working Americans with a shell of an American dream.

The core of the issue is the Democrats use to be for the everyday man and they lost their way and eroded trust, that will never be gained back. What that leaves voters in fly over states with is a choice to vote their better interest or have a candidate that “tells it like it is” aka lie and get back at the party that screwed them over.

It’s not as black and white when you’re in the thick of it, as difficult as it is to reason with that base.

With all due respect, as I understand where this sentiment comes from, that is how Trump gained momentum and won.

I think the blue no matter who approach has failed more than worked considering Hillary failed, Biden did win but really it was more Trump lost, Kamala lost (she got a shit deal yeah but still neolib vs unchained Trump should have been a no contest) and going further back Gore and Kerry lost to Bush. Clinton basically was the centrist Republican neolib that got Dems a roadmap that they keep to this day.

The time for half measures is over and the DNC needs to adapt or they will end up like the Whig Party. If you dont believe me look at their approval right now, No one likes the Democrats

Newsom is an establishment figure and telling the next generation of voters this is going to be a candidate for change won’t yield the results you think.

I was drinking heavy but lack of funds meant lack of funs.

Something something recession indicator

Yes. It’s like asking brownshirts in Germany if they have any shame. We are past the point of no return right now.

If you have the means to leave the United States now is the time.

Honestly, I wish I was in your shoes because you get to leave this place.

This is why I hate this community right here. I answered the person’s question and gave him what pirates view point was while calling out these gaming corporations and explained what they will probably do if a bill like this passes and your take away is I am “felationing” (not a word) game companies.

Just droves of window lickers like you infest this space and any nuanced conversations get lost.

He did say that in his first video, but came out with a more reflective video which you probably saw.

Regardless, the fact he’s dealing with such fall out over an opinion in an industry he’s active in and getting ousted is dumb. Everyone is losing their minds over this but like everything people will move on to something else in a month.
