Edit - I don't remember where I read/heard it, but I remember very early on someone said that liberals will one day turn on Israel but it'll be after a certain number of people begin dying - 5k, 10k, 30k, 50k. I wish I could find it.
That perfectly encapsulated the liberal mindset. They won't stand with us before the atrocity begins, when we are saying this will happen - only when it's already happening and their conscience gets in the way. (I'm talking about the people, not the ones in charge - the latter know perfectly well what they're doing, of course).
It's just endlessly frustrating, because the same thing happens over and over again.
Yeah but I think guys like Oliver have handlers, as in a literally think he gets emails from a State Dept guy weekly. It's weird he's letting John have okayish takes, unless its like a "limited hangout" thing where the ghouls recognize they need to let their left-of-center assets have okay takes on Palestine to preserve their legitimacy.
