Smearing Jill Stein is the total purpose of this segment. Here's my argument below.
VOTE 3RD PARTY! OR: WHY I'M NOT AFRAID OF TRUMP'S SECOND TERM and why I'm more afraid of being complicit in the genocide of Gaza, rather than all the horrible stuff that Trump will do BUT that the DNC will also do, however slightly less and maybe even accidentally something good........
I'm starting to think a second Trump presidency might be in everyone's best interest?!?! Seriously. If Harris is elected then everyone gets to go back to brunch and pretend that democracy is ok. A Harris presidency would reward the DNC for being corrupt, breaking all its promises to the Left, kids still in cages, refugees dying at the border, failure on climate, failure on green infrastructure, failure on voting rights, failure on a public opinion, failure on police reform, failure on $15 min wage, failure to hold Saudi Arabia accountable, failure in Gaza, continuing to promote the proxy war against Russia, etc.....
However, if Trump is re-elected everyone will remember that children are still dying in detention, democracy is under direct threat, the world is burning and at least Trump says he would try to end the war in Ukraine (obviously Trump would nuke Ukraine for a nickel but the fact he even suggested peace is better than the DNC's current pro WW3 stance).
The reality is that we can boil the climate frog slow or fast but it's going to fry either way. If the fire is stoked purposely by the actual Left it, would tell the Corporate Democrats that breaking every promise has consequences or if we are really lucky, public awareness that the duopoly won't save us and force regular people to understand that after the Palestinians it could be the place that their families are from next?!? Not to mention the fact, that they're also in the same boiling pot........
Vote third party, knowing full well that it will more than likely elect Donald j. Trump and that you are proud of it because it's better than voting for genocide. Lastly, always remind Liberals when they say that Donald Trump will be worse that unfortunately genocide is the WORST and that we're already there. Yes, he will more than likely kill even faster, which is unbelievably horrific BUT if the clearly stated goals of Israel is to be believed, then tragically everyone in Palestine will eventually be dead regardless of the timeline. This is unacceptable on every possible level, there's no lesser of two evils when fucking genocide is concerned even if it's a little bit slower.
The DNC MUST LOSE and it needs to be demonstratively because of Gaza. They also need to know that they will lose next time because of Gaza, then they need to understand that they will be in the political wilderness forever because the actual left will not be complicit in the murder of innocent men, women and children. Anything short of that is a recipe for the continued slaughter of people all over the world based on the idea of the "lesser of two evils."
The system works. Let's stop supporting it.

WHY IS JOE SO UNPOPULAR!?!?
American voters no longer believe Biden as he has a long demonstrated record of lying. Remember when genocide Joe said that he was going to hold Saudi Arabia accountable for the murder of an American journalist but instead gave MBS a fist bump, Biden said he'd stop the mass slaughter of Yemenese but now Biden is bombing them for trying to protect Palestinians, a $15 minimum wage (he could have even just gave a s*** increase but nothing, f**** nothing!!), a public option Healthcare option, cynically canceling student debt so that it fails by a conservative scotus to force young voters back to the polls, Biden drilling the most oil and gas for a president EVERY even after promising no more drilling on federal land, nothing for voting rights, nothing for police reform other than more funding for the further militarization of what is supposed to be domestic police, selling out the green infrastructure plan to Joe manchin as well as the dnc's obvious complicity with the oil and gas sector, using Ukraine's hundreds of thousands of young men as canon fodder to try and bankrupt Russia and worst of all, genocide Joe's support of Israel and it's merciless killing of tens of thousands of Palestinian women & children and on and on........
Campaign to the Left, rule for the Right.
The system works

The problem is that Bernie Sanders is the most popular politician in America who's eligible for the Presidency and is the only reason why an unpopular Joe Biden was rammed down our throats in 2020. Bernie would destroy Trump BUT the corruption and corporate capture of the DNC would never let that happen. The DNC would obviously prefer Trump because they'll get their tax breaks, continued endless wars, deregulation and blind subservience of the government to corporate America and the ultra wealthy. Even worse, Bernie would bring in medicare-4-All, taxes on billionaires, reign in the CIA and the military industrial complex as well as supporting working families with policies that supports unions, teachers, nurses, doctors and American communities. These policies don't help the DNC donor class, so Bernie Sanders isn't an option. Better to lose to Trump than help average Americans.
The system works.
Hmmmmm, who was the second in the DNC Primary, TWICE!!!!!! They can't even say Bernie Sanders name as THE MOST POPULAR POLITICIAN IN AMERICA........

MEDHI the OPPORTUNIST!!!
LOL! I watched an amazing video from Norm Finkelstein who called Medhi "a sack of s***" for smearing Jeremy Corbyn as an anti-semite with no evidence just to ingratiate himself with the corporate media establishment.
I originally was a fan of Medhi at first but eventually I suspected he was just a Liberal shill in Lefy clothing. He soft pedals the "vote blue no matter who" narrative that enables the Republicans to get away with war crimes BUT more importantly, giving the Democrats cover to be complicit in those same war crimes. Still, I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt ........however, if you look at his interview with Julian Assange's brother (The 1st interview, not the second one once he realized that he was going to be to the Right of WSJ, New York Times, Haaretz, and the liberal media establishment) he was dismissive, brought up CIA talking points and totally ignored evidence of the illegal activity towards Assange as well as Assange's lawyers, family + other legal Representatives) to push the security apparatus' agenda. He is only on the "right side" of these issues when it affects him personally or the establishment gives him permission, otherwise, he's perfectly fine with carrying the Establishment 's propaganda water.
I hope he has changed BUT he's got a lot to make up for and has still never apologized to Corbyn or Assange for his obvious journalistic malpractice and until he does, I will assume he's a "Justice warrior of convenience"
Medhi continues to profit from being able to play both sides of the establishment for clout and profit.
If you want to concern yourself with the legitimacy of that argument. Consider the fact of the people he smeared, Assange spent a decade in prison under the harshest possible conditions OR Corbyn who was stripped of his leadership role and thrown out of the Labour Party he had supported for 40 years with no provable reason?!?!
Medhi on the other hand has now established a multi-million dollar company after enjoying access to corporate media for acclaim and profit while both Corbyn and Assange suffered for telling the truth............
Clearly, Medhi is a great attack dog and I'm glad that he is setting his sights on the people who are perpetrating these atrocities, however, The reality is that anyone who can so casually blow in the direction of the corporate wind, can't genuinely be trusted and is ultimately dangerous as they can never, ever, under any circumstances to be trusted not to do it again once defending the truth becomes inconvenient or expensive.
Until I see Medhi actually sacrifice anything to help anyone other than himself, I will never trust him again.

Trump is the inevitable blowback of 40 years of Neoliberal DNC's broken promises that has seen a massive decline in the standard of living of the overwhelming majority of Americans.
I think the most important thing is to remember, all of Biden's broken 2020 campaign promises like a $15 minimum wage, public option for healthcare, not to issue any oil drilling on federal lands(Let alone the most ever), fully funded infrastructure package rather than gutting it for corporate oil lobbyists, voting rights act for George Floyd, not putting refugees in cages let alone keeping Trump's border policies, not one more mile of Trump's border wall (yup billions more), making Saudi Arabia's MBS pay for the murder of TWO American journalists, cynically cancelling student debt in a way that he knew SCOTUS would stop in a way he could cynically send people back to the polls.
Once in government the DNC crushed the rail workers movement, forcing them back to work for the audacity of asking for a single day off?! continuing to ignore the Flint water crisis, also, let's not forget the absolute f**** tragedy that is East Palestine rail chemical disaster that the people there still continue to suffer from. Also, rather than trying to deal in a humane and sensible immigration reform, Biden totally capitulated to the far right view of further militarizing the border while not getting anything for people who've been in the country for decades, resolving nothing except to move the conversation towards the anti-immigration crowd. Expanding the military industrial complexes budget with zero accountability for the fact they don't know where the money went and expanding the nuclear Arsenal while dropping all of the non nuclear prolification agreements. I can keep going on and on and on but none of this should surprise anyone. Biden has been one of the most corporate captured and Republican friendly Senators of all time, with a record that shows nothing except total complicity in selling out the American people for political & personal gain. His administration is the perfect embodiment of the DNC's worldview, campaign to the center, Rule to the Right. Reward the donor's, ensure the protection of Israel so that Netanyahu can break every single possible crime against humanity. Biden undermined any possible peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia costing hundreds of thousands of lives on both sides , which at the end of this I guarantee will be the exact same place as to where the original land agreement was.. Oh, yeah, let's not forget the only thing that he was involved in with Obama that actually was helpful, like normalization of relations with Cuba, or Iran?!? Once elected he didn't do anything on those fronts either because it was more important to him to ingratiate himself with right-wing corporate media than to spend political capital on the things he campaigned on to do the right thing that would have actually helped the people in those countries as well as the USA in terms of trade and having any, what's so f**** ever credibility on the world stage?!?! Could you imagine how much more important it would be to have Iran in the world economic system right now so that they had something to lose?!??
I get why the DNC pushed him over Bernie Sanders, clearly Biden's hubris and ignorance was easy to manipulate his foreign policy agenda in the Israeli direction unlike Obama, who was smarter than that. The fact Biden was an avowed "Zionist" was just icing on the cake! Unfortunately, Hamas 's October 7th attack totally destroyed Netanyahu's narrative that his support of Hamas as a way to destabilize Palestine as a whole would guarantee the greater security to everyone in the region was proven extremely false, now sadly those chickens have come home to roost for not only all of those slaughtered children, but the rest of us who have to deal with the policy failures of a demented old man & The DNC political establishment that prioritized its own personal gains, profit and exploitation of the region over the geopolitical goals of the states for the next hundred years.
I bring all this up because of his first choice as president, he picked Kamala Harris as his running mate. My belief is that it was because she was a failure running for president and he knew that he was such a weak candidate that he couldn't withstand any kind of political talent from anyone else, whatsoever and she certainly fulfilled that goal. Also, the DNC knew that she was such a weak candidate as well, that she would never, under any circumstances talk back or have any kind of spine or political beliefs whatsoever that could complicate their commitment to the donor class. More importantly, Kamala would n't have any shame whatsoever because she believes in nothing at all. The DNC had assembled the perfect team of ambition without ideology, an ability to change opinion on fundamental issues without a hint of shame and most importantly of all, a complete and total disregard for everyone except for themselves.
Obviously, the DNC knew that this would be extremely unpalatable to the American people, but Trump is the gift that keeps on giving! His total disregard for the norms which give the false pretense that Washington DC isn't just a total grift to extract $ from the working class while giving it to the 1% and ensuring that they never, under any circumstance, ever, pay any consequences for their incompetence, corruption and or complete and total criminality in terms of hundreds, if not millions of people's lives. Unfortunately, Trump's grotesque incompetence, paled in comparison to the DNC's choice to TWICE cheat the American people out of their ACTUAL legitimate choice Bernie Sanders & forced literally the worst neoliberalism corporate HACK of ALL TIME Corporate Joe in a desperate attempt to use Trump's incompetence to hide their total contempt for the working classes rejection of the Neoliberal agenda.
Trump is the inevitable blowback to 40 years of neoliberalism brought to you by the DNC and they're failure to deliver the basics. If the party of "democracy" only manages to ever deliver a declining living standard and identity politics instead of the material well being of Americans it's no wonder that they have rejected those obviously empty promises. Sadly, at some point voter will try the strong man and hope that maybe he delivers when "their people have sold them out consistently for 40 years". Trump won't of course but that's the consequence we all have to suffer for the greed hubris of the Democratic party. WORST of ALL the DNC DID THIS ON PURPOSE, If they won then they're neoliberal agenda would be confirmed and celebrated while the billionaire donor class collected their Pound of flesh. However, if they lost then Trump would also reward the billionaire donors with not only taxes but reduced regulation and best of all a way, to drive fear into the hearts of all workers that if they don't support the neoliberal agenda of the Democrats, they will be thrown to the Neoconservative GOP wolves!!!
The system works.
