I agree with the distinctions you expressed Kate and I would agree the comparison made by Glenn is not a true equivalency. I would push back on your assessment of Cornel's very gentle critique of brother RFK. Listening to West's policy position, I thought he clearly articulated here and elsewhere his strong, consistent stance opposing apartheid and valuing the life of ALL humans equally, just like you and I do Kate - just as RFK's support for the oppression of Palestinians is clear. RFKs support of Zionist apartheid is not a small disagreement or a "purity" test, but rather a microcosm of the corrupt weaponized hypocrisy wielded by propagandists bought by the two factions of Capital that own RFK and all other politicians on red and blue team. Peace and love πŸ™β™₯️

Dr. West provides a love and moral clarity we deeply need on the left

I am a huge fan of Cornel West but absolutely disagree with his "have a backbone, think for yourself, don't be persuaded- just be RIGHT in your core beliefs", stance re JRK's take on Israel. That attitude it fatalistic because all people have different knowledge and priorities, even if their core values about life are the same. You need to be persuadable. I don't care one ounce more about Palestinian babies than I care about Yemeni and Afgani and Russian babies. I disagree with RFK on Israel, but I'm more interested to hear about West's real policy positions than attacking RFK as lacking some purity on the basis that he doesn't seem utterly convinced he's in the right about Israel. Frankly, the idea that Israel and Ukraine are remotely the same thing was a false equivalency by Greenwald. Not only is the dollar amount a fraction of what's being blown on Ukraine, but it's not directly ramping up tensions with another nuclear armed superpower, putting all life- not just US or Palestine or Ukraine- at risk.
