It's very similar to what's been happening in the UK. Leaders are simply appointed, especially in the "left" party. (which is the opposite of the definition of left, since that literally meant opposition or change when the word was come up with).
@@phasespace4700 He's not mysognistic though. He just strongly dislikes Kamala Harris. I'm seriously disappointed in Kamala's poor character. Her move was obvious, to champion the cause of those facing persecution. She completely ignored that plight, and thought the electoral mandate would just be given to her on grounds of "democracy is at stake." 🤦
@@BallyBoy95 she would’ve lost far more votes by standing up for Palestinians. This is a right wing war loving country with a completely entrenched pro Israel, power structure dating back 75 years. The movement for Palestinian freedom was making enormous progress and we had elected Democrats exposing Israel’s atrocities. Now we have Netanyahu‘s favorite candidate in the White House while Finkelstein and his cult gloat about teaching Kamala Harris a lesson. He obviously cares nothing about Palestinians. Or the climate. Or gun violence. Or the preservation of democracy. Or the environment. Or women’s rights. Or anything other than making vulgar comments about a woman who is his superior in every conceivable respect. Pretty despicable.
@@phasespace4700 It's not misogyny each time you criticize someone, simply because she's a woman. She has no character, stands for nothing, is two-faced, and will outright make up things to get votes. She is a Zionist and genocide enabler. To call her a cow is insult to cows. So no, that she happens to be woman does not make any difference.
What's the good of being right if no one will listen to you even after the facts show your right? They'll still ignore you or even demonize you for it!
He's very old, he's not the new anything. But he's also different than Chomsky. Chomsky was smarter, and able to speak on many more subjects at a high level. Norm is more focused and principled than Chomsky ever was. They have differing strengths and weaknesses, both can be legends in their own ways.
@yeahr1ghty I meant that chomsky is on deaths doorstep, got blackmailed, took a very stupid position on vaccination, said that non vaccinated people should starve or be put in concentration camps, lost his principles and now had a stroke. Norm is still on point
I always hear him and say "he's too radical, he's being insensitive, he's gotta be wrong" and I end up losing every time. If there was a person who was the definition of based it would be this guy
Finkelstein telling it like it is. Always refreshing to hear a straight-shooter (which, by the way, was the very quality that won Trump the election in overwhelming fashion).
Allan Richtman's perfect record was perfect, until it wasn't (with this election). Reminds me of the caveat in the investing industry: past performance is not a guarantee of future performance.
Time to let go of Chomsky worship, and start noticing that Norman really only gets on fairly mainstream shows. He's not part of the new media reality. This is still just Boomers drowning. Avoid.
The three major issues were, the economy, illegal immigration, and war. She failed on all three. I could NOT vote for anyone who would not stop the sale of bombs to murder civilians. I did NOT consider a vote for Jill Stein a wasted vote. It was a vote against warmongering as a way to solve humanity’s problems. Our survival depends on our changing this.
Our pain for the next 4 years does not compare to the suffering Palestinian, Lebanese, Syrian and so many other countries are going through for decades thanks to the USA.
I agree with you. The Black women that I know are primarily harm reduction voters so they did vote for her for that purpose, but there were plenty who sat it out or voted third party. None were playing identity politics (e.g., voting for her because she was a Black woman). I would say the younger Black women that I know were more likely to fall in the latter categories.
