    He really annoys me bc a few low info leftish conspiracy people kept falling for random threads about him having some kind of redeeming qualities up until we really hammered home the Epstein connection

    and then they turn to this "he's compromised" shit. do they think being a kennedy gives you some kind of Messianic Based White Boy trait?

      It’s so annoying how people forget that fascism likes to steal our talking points for their own uses and then fall for it and platform them when they do.

        I would really appreciate if they focused more on the JPMorgan Chase connection & the broader network of Epstein people too just saying! Even the Liz Warren weirdos https://wallstreetonparade.com/ do better there, or milquetoast libs like the uhhh Miami Herald lady. I forget her name but she rules just had to mute & unfollow ages ago due to liberalism and basketball spam even with RTs off 😭

          I haven’t looked on wsop much, but I appreciate that they show how our system’s always on the brink of collapse.

            They catalog it so extensively it makes it way funnier to me when I realize Occupy Wall St. and Liz Warren is their best prescription for action

      At the very latest when he outed himself as a massive Zionist, anyone who claims to be a leftist should have understood that he is not the anti-establishment or anti-war figure he was sold as. You don't say the kind of vile shit that he has said about Palestinians just by being "compromised", he's a true believer Zionist ghoul and that means he would inevitably turn out to be yet another warmonger once he got into office.

        Yeah the implication is you'd need him to be compromised to say that shit. My man is giving them a discount.
