Matt Taibi was on Bill Maher’s HBO show defending Pelosi saying what she did is cool and principled because China is a “human rights violator” and it’s “worth taking a stance sometimes.”
And it’s because of the “donors” with commercial interests in China that most politicians are reluctant to speak out.
Hero.
I hope the sanctions have at least some material consequence.
:liberalism:
it's wild how Taibi manages to get more and more deranged with increasingly shit takes. for a while he seemed ok-ish, but it's like 2020 just completely melted his brain along with so many other people too
