For the Trump v Biden Debate we have around 200 users chatting. For the Trump v Kamala Debate we had around 160 users. I'm not sure how many people will be interested in the VP debate.

I am playing it on this channel because the other channel uses peertube, which can potentially share your IP address to other users. This channel will not have peertube.

I will have news commentary playing in the channel before the debate and potentially after the debate as well.

    Walz coming out of the gate with uncritical support for Israel's right to start World War 3. Absolute Joy Reich shit.

    I can't take this any more. They're just arguing over who can more efficiently implement a fascist vision for America. Fuck this place.

      Love how dems will just straight up lie in front of everyone and we're considered crazy for not believing them.

      Bourgeois electoralism is just an abstraction of a portion of and within the hemisphere of bourgeois politics, as opposed to the hemisphere of proletarian politics, of what politics is in its whole form and motion; in the interdependent unity-and-struggle of and between these two interconnected-and-opposing hemispheres along and between this 'equatorial' line, that is along and between the class divisions defined by the social relationships to the means of production and subsistence, and their superstructural representations.

      If one thinks 'knowing about politics' means one can 'not pay attention to politics', one needs to read more of the theory behind real politics; and the proper orienting and navigating in the 'equatorial' conflict and the correct handling of the contradictions between the people.

    Vance is crushing, honestly

    And then: Walz with a mealy-mouthed closing; Vance with a strong, sharp message that you deserve a house and a square meal, and reminding you that Kamala hasn't given that to you. And those baby blue eyes. It's too bad he's evil.

        if you didn't know better

        Exactly. He's really deft at framing, esp. in giving the viewers a permission structure to support Trump, and giving assuring, flip responses while avoid being pinned on satanic GOP positions, which is leaving Walz blathering, trying to clarify.

        Harris and Walz need to stop bringing up Project 2025 in debates. All they have to do is say "no I don't support that, here's what I actually support". Immediate, easy deflect into a stump speech.

      He's got the energy of a debate kid and the education of an Ivy League shithead. He struggles to appear like a normal person, not like a smarty pants fast talker.

          As far as I'm capable of having any morbid curiosity left for Amerikkkan electoralism I am a little curious if Walz attempts to disingenuously gesture leftward at all or if they're both just gonna try to outdo each other on how "tough on crime" they are and how they have the best record on blut und biden homeland security

          Don't think I can get myself interested enough to watch live though, I'm sure I'll hear about it from some podcast(s) and get mad about things later

    as with the kamala-trump debate, the dems are gloating about the brutality of their border policy while the fascists accuse them of not being brutal enough. americans' blood lust is insatiable

    thankfully i apparently missed the part about palestine

    Cackling as Walz is dropping spaghetti trying to evade his fib that he embellished his Trot credibility by being at a very terrible Tiananmen Square protest.

    Lmao the questions seem to be weirdly pro-Trump for CNN. There's this question about calling Walz out on a lie about going to China during Tianamen Square. Kinda just bizarre.

        I mean, the "Tiananmen Square" that Americans think of is just one picture on one day, but there were student protests for at least three months right? So he could have just said he was there during the student movement of '89? Daddy football was pretty garsh darn flustered tonight for sure.

            Ahhhh - well that definitely plays into the Midwestern dad who tells fish stories vibe he's doing.
