It’s funny watching the establishment start trying to redefine what a whistle blower is
i was doing some reading tonight and read a few articles about rfk jr. and his possible candidacy.
in terms of people expressing support for him, a few names seemed to keep popping up:
steve bannon
alex jones
michael flynn
charlie kirk
roger stone
an interesting list to be on. that grift is starting...

The establishment is trying to smear him with potential voters by associating him with those people. TV people fall for this stuff every time. He’s a liberal, even though I wish he weren’t when it comes to guns and the border. He just speaks the truth, in a time of lies imo
he's associating himself with those people. those people are associating themselves with him.

He’s talking to anyone that will talk to him tbf. He’s not the wing cuck type and had a decent amount of political capital, so I bet his calculus is saying to reach out to all Americans to have any shot at beating Biden or running independently. But who knows
you've said yourself many times that talk can't be trusted. only judge actions.
i guess you make an exception for people who tell you what you like to hear? fair enough.

i just went to check out donaldtrump.com to see if there was any policy/platform content on issues now that he's launched his campaign.
could i find his positions on issues of importance to the american citizens he claims he cares about so much? well-considered policies to address these issues? even a suggestion of his policy priorities should he be elected?
nope.
the site redirects immediately to a fundraising site.
"just give me the money"
he's not even trying to distract people from his grifting.

His actions are him being a very effective environmental lawyer and speaking truth to power, at very great risk to himself. The people you support killed his uncle and his dad ffs
so speaking is an action when it's expedient. got it.

It is when your uncle threatened the establishment and they kill him, then you say those same things imho. But he has done some amazing shit, he’s the only reason folx can swim in the Hudson. No need to sneed about him, I realize authoritarian types are never gonna like him, regardless of being left or right.

Is that actually happening or are you just hoping it happens?
What is your definition of "the establishment"?
Sorry, I haven't been around these parts in a few years so I don't remember what your political shtick is.

What do you think that proves? Nixon was responsible for creation of the EPA. The Nazis (the real Nazis, not the modern American wannabes) were deep into renewable energy research and all sorts of green initiatives. Hell, North Korea has a carbon footprint smaller than your mom's actual footprint.
Also, lol @ calling Ali an authoritarian.

I don’t think they were able to get it done in the official dictionary like they did with vaccine and a few others’, but the establishment media is saying these fbi agents aren’t whistle blowers. Ever as they have proved that they are being retaliated against in awful ways.
The establishment are the people that hold all of the power of the agencies and corporations. Neo Libs and neo cons

Suppose all you like, kimosabe. There's no place on this earth besides your fragile internal monolog where Alasdair would be considered "authoritarian". That's a nice way to say that you are using words you don't seem to understand to get out of the conversational corner you've found yourself in.
And what is your fucking obsession with the word "establishment"? What is it? Some nebulous but nefarious force organized against the world? A formal organization devoted to the control of the entire world through increasingly absurd conspiracies? An alien or mutant overclass taking the slow route to world domination? A two millennia long con run by perverts and sadists posing as a religion?

Lol wut?
I don't know if you've been sitting on that meme just waiting for the chance to drop it into a post, mic-drop style, thinking you've made some kind of point... but if you were you just completely wasted it. Just disappointing.
