  • they seem confident about things they are wrong about factually, and have certainly moderated based on opinion or accusing others of misinformation where they are the one who is misinformed. but I don't see it changing.

    also your comment and mine are in violation of the rules about discussing moderation. we can whine on !modabuse

  • When I clarify a distinction without a difference

    no, you're making a leap of logic

  • There have now been multiple reasonable ceasefire negotiations that the Biden administration has helped negotiate which Hamas has unilaterally rejected

    Hamas has made offers that have been ignored as well.

  • turn over the war criminals and terrorists who made it their mission to rape,

    I have never seen credible evidence of this.

  • And still, there is not a serious politician in this country that would even consider removing support of Israel in the wake of the October 7th attacks, especially given a hostage crisis that is now entering its 6th fucking month.

    tlaib and omar have been quite vocal as well as may others. the only way you can claim this isn't misinformation is by playing at no true Scotsman.

  • in arabic, there is no idiomatic equivalent to "wipe off the map."

    you're regurgitating imperialist propaganda.

  • Biden is also no in any way responsible for the Israeli response, nor is he in any control of the tactics used by the IDF in achieving their goals.

    under pax americana, he can decide whether Israel comes to the table and stops shooting. instead, he continues to arm and fund them and say he, too, is a zionist

  • kidnapping and murder are crimes, not war crimes. Hamas isn't an army, and they don't control a state. there is no war.

  • The word hypernormalisation was coined by Alexei Yurchak, a professor of anthropology who was born in Leningrad

    I've been called "Ivan" (and worse) for a lot less. be careful out there.

  • are you suggesting a politician would get in front of a camera and just lie??

  • she's definitely not a lefty. she had a pretty good grift being the "liberal who went to a trump rally and found out they werent all monsters" or something. did a media circuit and fell into relative obscurity.

    she stirs a lot of drama now. i can't say that all or even most of her content is worth watching, but she does watch actual leftist seminars and then does her shitty commentary. by shitty i just mean "i disagree". i'd say usually,she's knowledgable about the topics.

  • jill says they're on track to hit 5% this november. that's something worth voting for.

  • i think you would find karlyn borysenko is actually pretty knowledgable. i watch her stuff instead of advocating my friends conduct real pol-ed. it's honestly very good, she picks great topics, with a lot of queer theory but she never loses sight of the context of anticapitalist struggle. i'd say maybe she's a bit too focused on it in the sort of "no war but classwar"-bros kind of way, but honestly she is very good but not at all leftist.

    edit:

    also, she has been dunking on MFL basically the entire time

  • when? when did they get federal campaign funding?

  • What are West’s positions on Ukraine

    i've heard him say similar things to jill, but also that the shooting needs to stop.

  • she’s dined with Russian oligarchs at anniversary dinners for RT.

    this contains both misinformation and innuendo. she went to one dinner, and she paid her own way. RT was one of the few outlets that would give her air time during her 2012 presidential bid, which is more of a commentary on the corporate media and political parties than on anything she's ever done.

  • Stein thinks the US forced Russia into invading Ukraine

    she never said that. she has said it was an illegal invasion, though.
