He was noting that Obama had spoken a few years ago against the the form of wokeness that is now culturally dominant, interesting mostly because you probably wouldn’t hear Obama say anything like this today.
Did you listen to the clips? The college comments in particular are just not the way things work anymore. We just call that deplatforming now and it’s common for college students to shut down speaking events before they happen. For Obama to suggest the same thing today would be tantamount to him advocating for giving fascists a platform.
is greenwald praising obama and macron?
