West spoke with the Washington Examiner’s Christian Datoc at the Abandon Biden convention, hosted down the street from the Democratic National Convention. He denied in strong terms that he had ever been a fan of “top cop” Vice President Kamala Harris and accused her of complicity in genocide.

The Washington Examiner, a publication every true leftist reads regularly.
- No surprise, it seems many love echo chambers and self-censorship.
  I do not limit myself to only reading, watching, or learning about what I agree with.
  
  I think you agree with quite a lot in the Examiner.
Hey Cornel West how do you feel about genocide in Ukraine?
“Yeah we cool”
- When you compare what is happening to the Palestinian people versus the Ukrainian people, you are downplaying the Palestinian genocide.
  Looking at the history and the causes of escalation, they are not the same.
  Ukraine is a pawn of the US and NATO, which is only used to continue to push for regime change and aggression toward Russia.
  Ukraine is much more similar to Israel in that the US gives them unlimited military support so as to continue aggression against the nations around them and push for more forever wars.

  I wasn’t doing that. They’re obviously massively different situations. I was just pointing out that Cornel West is okay with genocide, just only certain types of it.
  Oh hey Jimmy - what do you think of Uighur genocide?
  continue aggression against the nations around them

Remember kids, blocking users is super easy. No need to give air to people that want to fling poo.
- Self-censorship is an option, an unhealthy one, but still a choice available to all.
