    Dude just wishes there was a third way. Just wants all the classes to come together and collaborate to build a strong society, like a bundle of sticks bound together around a strong central vision.

    David Sirota was a disgusting piece of shit about Al-Aqsa Flood and he can go fuck himself

      Oh yeah I forgot about that

      God fucking damnit

      Oct 7 2023 is the day that made or broke my respect for so many public figures

      Unfortunately almost all of them failed. When the time to be resolute in their principles came... it turned out they had no principles. Goddamnit.

        I remember him tweeting reductive shit along the lines of how if you don't condemn Oct 7 you are an anti-semite who wants all jews to die or some shit, let me go look to see if it's still in his feed

        in the meantime here's his Oct 12 article with lots of both-sidesing, conflating antizionism with anitsemitism, and Nakba-omitting bullshit

        I think this specifically is about him being dragged for boosting PA governor Josh Shapiro as a candidate for Kamala's VP, and calling him a personal friend. Shapiro supports an anti-BDS bill which will impose financial penalties on universities which divest from Israel. Otherwise, Sirota is generally your average succdem. He was a surrogate for Bernie's campaign in 2020. John Fetterman was a succdem too though. It is amazing to see how far these creatures will unravel when you pull on the tread.

    vegeta-pain you fool! I have only been using 1% of my politics. You can't even comprehend the full extent my non-doctrinaire beliefs because they don't fit into your puny left-right frame!

    Translation: this person's politics are either right-wing or self-contradictory
