This talking point acts like countries dont need unanimous support for entry into NATO. If Russia wanted to stop Ukrainian admission, they would just need Hungary or Turkey to veto it which pre invasion would almost certainly have done

Notice how he frames it "American Empire" and "Russian Federation", even though only one of them waa forcefully occupying another country (even before the Ukraine invasion). Framing reveals a lot about a person's intentions.

It is completely ridiculous and shows really how much being anti American to them matters more than any of their so called beliefs in being anti imperialistic given you literally cannot get anymore imperialist than trying to invade another country for the purpose of incorporating their territory into yours(or putting in place a puppet gov that does the same thing effectively).

I see Cornel Derangement Syndrome is the new normal

Tbf tho I was entertaining voting for him and this sealed the deal
That I will reluctantly vote for Joseph R Biden. Cornel isn’t running a serious campaign. I agree with his critique of Ukraine but what exactly is his policy solution? Unilaterally disengage so the Russians can have a nice little genocide? Purity politics is a lot easier in the classroom than the Oval Office and as a socialist I hope dr west stays there.

At any rate he won’t “steal” any votes from Biden because he already is losing the persuadables and his ride or dies would’ve voted PSL or green regardless of the nomineee

Cornel advocates for an immediate ceasefire and peace deal negotiated by all sides, advocated by all serious peace activists.

So far no serious abandonment of him for Biden exists among voters, although that’s mainly because progressives are already lockstep with Biden. Cornel has ran a bad campaign with very little on the ground campaigning, which is not surprising.

What is the terms of the peace deal though. If it is 2021 borders then you can make that argument but to say it should be 2023 borders is completely ridiculous.

Pointed this out on Discord but there's no way Aaron Rodgers could continue to be a quarterback AND run for VP at the same time, right? He'd need to retire to do this.

I mean Deion Sanders played in MLB Playoffs and then immediately played an NFL game after that .
