The New York Times downplayed his racist, sexist and violent rhetoric and doing “both sides” shit for the last 8 years (the best word I have heard to describe this is “sanewashing”)… and now they are coming out with this?
Fuck the New York Times.
He could literally piss on them and they would cop it with a grin.
The political press corps understands that Trump coverage generates great ad revenue, so they are willing to compromise their principles on this matter.
Is there a link for this?
I agree but they are not as influential as AIPAC regarding supporting the mass punishment and murder of civilians in the middle east.
Weapons manufacturers will be busy for years resupplying stocks that were provided to Ukraine.
They have spent $100 million dollars this cycle.
Any politician that stands up to AIPAC gets millions (if not tens of millions) raised for their political opponents.
The vast majority of politicians are far too frightened to anger this lobby in an election year.
It’s called AIPAC.
Their lobbying power is perfectly legal and immense.
It is clear that Israel is trying to start a war with Iran and Hezbollah and drag the United States into it.
In Europe, literal fascists are elected to parliament.
Let’s not jerk ourselves into a frenzy here.
Or when the NY Times stops doing puff pieces on Trump or his supporters.
To be fair (and I was a great supporter of Dark Brandon), Joe Biden has been a huge supporter of Israel including derailing Hillary Clinton’s attempt to stop settlement construction (when she was secretary of state).
It wasn’t “rigged” for Clinton (and I thought she was not a good candidate).
Bernie lost because less people voted for him.
If it wasn’t for the undemocratic caucuses, he would have lost earlier. For example, he won the Washington caucus but got crushed in the primary (which had massively higher turn out).
The fact of the matter is that the broader electorate wasn’t as left-wing as Lemmy or /r/politics is.
I switched and didn’t notice much difference
It’s almost as if half of these comments are economically illiterate.
What is this?
Is anybody surprised?
I notice the local Israel shills have become quieter and quieter as more of these stories come out.
Running media streams too?
Because he is a white conservative.
