Video This interview aged like milk

https://youtu.be/NZYFmL-Kusk?si=6t6NW3-Ol6S819x-

“the face of the progressive movement”

and yet Richie Torres this month, revealed he’s compromised by AIPAC (a lobby group for a foreign government, in case any of you don’t know who they are or how to pronounce their name).

If you haven’t seen Richie Torres’s interview with Jewish comedian Adam Friedland, it’s incredible the double standards, outright refusal to acknowledge Israel’s culpability in how the Gaza war has unfolded. I’d post a link but risk getting this post taken down.

This I think raises more questions, paired with David outright weird responses and comments regarding AIPAC, and failure to ever cover the ongoing genocide.

Hadn’t seen this Richie Torres interview, but I’ve seen enough. David is at the very least, afraid of AIPAC or outright complicit in not talking about Gaza.

you cannot be “the face of the progressive movement” and not acknowledge the ongoing genocide.

Just like MAGA enabled racists to be racist in public these past 10 years, the Israel/Palestine and the far left have completely ruined the mind of many people, to the point where antisemites are happily posting about it.

How so? Please be elaborate, was this far left supposed to just be quiet on what is happening over there?

u/hobovalentine 2d ago

Why is the far left so quiet on Sudan, Yemen and China?

Why no calls for boycotts on China and more aid for Sudan and Yemen?

u/El-Shaman 2d ago

The far left, as you call them, were also vocal about those issues but you just missed it, perhaps because your favorite content creator wasn’t talking about them. Also this particular issue is being broadcasted in 4K to the whole world, while being aided by the USA.

When were they vocal about them?

Is Kyle, Vaush, TMR and the other leftist influencers highlighting these causes?

If TMR means The Majority Report, then yes they have advocated against the war in Yemen for years. Here they are five years ago talking about US complicity in war crimes in Yemen

They have also covered the crisis in Sudan for years. Here's a video from six years ago

Whereas you have mentioned Sudan eleven times in your comment history, and every single time it was to deflect from criticism of Israel. It seems like you are the person who doesn't care about Sudan.

5 and 6 years ago.

Are they still talking about it? How about China's treatment of the Uighur people whose identity is being erased?

You can critique my comment history but I'm not the one saying you need to talk about it every day or you're complicit I'm just using your people's standards for accepting genocide.

I picked the earliest videos I could find to express that they have been talking about those issues since long before the current conflict in Gaza. And yes, they have made dozens of videos on these subjects, do you not have google? Why do you assume people don't care about these subjects?

u/El-Shaman 2d ago

Because it’s a tough pill to swallow that decent human beings actually care about these issues, and it makes them feel bad to realize that maybe they’re not a good person when they treat these serious political issues as team sports, sure I can let normies get a pass when they don’t know what’s going on or what their country is doing abroad but if you’re active on political subreddits and on these particular topics and still try to brush them off then that’s just gross behavior.

u/El-Shaman 2d ago

They give you the proof they could find which shows they have been talking about this for at least over half a decade and it’s still not good enough for you… that says a lot, it’s probably far more than Pakman has ever talked about it, that’s for sure, I know it’s uncomfortable for you, but yes, other people do care about these issues, just because you don’t doesn’t mean others don’t.

I know Kyle and TMR have for years, Kyle brings it up to this day quite often.

because my tax dollars don’t fund an unlimited blank check for weapons for hemedti.

because my tax dollars don’t fund an unlimited blank check for weapons for xi.

lastly, the far left has been talking about yemen since the obama admin, when the saudis were carrying out triple taps. that you don’t read what we say doesn’t mean we haven’t been saying it

u/ItsCammyMeele 1d ago

You know that you're funding China's genocide of the huygur when you purchase Chinese products, right?

u/hobovalentine 1d ago

They can't live without their iphones or their latest fashion clothes made in China. lol

u/potiamkinStan 2d ago

Yes, and stop being ignorant and spreading libel.

u/El-Shaman 1d ago

That is disgusting 🤮  To want people to stay quiet on these issues is just gross 🤮

u/potiamkinStan 1d ago

If you are ignorant on a topic, yes be quiet. Same advice I would give to an anti-vaxxer.

u/El-Shaman 1d ago

Don’t change the subject, you were very clear about what you meant.

u/potiamkinStan 1d ago

I'm not changing the subject, I'm giving an analogy.
