@hilaryr It’s not complex: Israel is committing genocide. Ignoring that reality, leaning into complexity is the spineless, soulless pandering Harris used in the last election.
Yesterday it was reported that Hakeem Jeffries got mad at Bernie for endorsing against a Black House incumbent.

Absolutely bat shit stuff here. Democratic lawmakers being forced to vaguely listen to their constituents on a 80/20 issue is being framed as “fear”. I cannot stress enough how morally depraved and cynical and hostile to democracy this nonstop torrent of Israeli propaganda is.
It’s almost like corporate media reverse engineers narratives to punch left and shore up the status quo regardless of what happens & if socialists/progressives win on Aug 4 they’ll just move the goalposts again because they’re ideological enforcers not neutral arbiters of reality

Here's my full interview with CNBC, covering my bear case against generative AI, OpenAI's questionable finances, AI's lack of ROI, and how all of this is a symptom of the tech industry running out of hypergrowth ideas.
It's great to see the mainstream media discussing this.
So too Mamdani strategist @katz_morris did a great job of dealing with Dana Bash’s awful and biased questions in CNN, and of course Morris is Jewish so hard for Bash to do the ‘Mamdani is antisemitic’ nonsense with him.
