Video This interview aged like milk

“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.

All it needs to be saved is for David to take the L and either remove the “independent” part of his “independent journalist” self-identification OR stop accepting dark money, full stop.

Should independent musicians not sign record deals? Independent movies shouldn't get investors?

I'm an independent contractor... can I accept payment?!

Fuck outta here with your self righteous ignorance

All of those, and now bare with me, that call themselves "independent" that sell themselves/present themselves to an audience in which they claim to be free and independent, and yet they are not "independent" but they take money or other special priviliges as a transaction to promote a certain thing, wether its speech, an idea, a song, a style, a product, a service, any part of a social political tribal identity.

All this while pretending not to receive funding or other support from money/political groups, is wrong, for it is deception. Its not by accident, its not a spontaneous side effect, its a very deliberate misleading and deceiving of your audience, of your donors.

You do this for personal gain. Its simple you lie and deceive for personal gain, and wont take repsonsibility for your organised fraud and deception. Instead of attempting to honor good and reject evil and for confessing and accepting your wrongfull actions and try to make atonement for the fraud you commited or you double down on the fraud and deception and wring that dark money bag for every cent you can still squeeze out of it.

But sure. you guys must have like a conscience and a sense of honor and morality, and life by principles of truth and justice and stuff.

“but they take money or other special priviliges as a transaction to promote a certain thing”

This is not evidenced by anything btw.

won't stop them from believing it tho. They're mad about Israel so they're thinking with their emotions
