Anderson Cooper deep in discussion about fascism.

[madaboutharry]

Great discussion with Cornel West going on about how dangerous this moment is in American history.

Anderson is depressed.

1. I'm depressed too. I see no real sense of urgency

despite the perilous time we live.

[madaboutharry]

2. I am also depressed.

I have moments when I think there is a sense of urgency. I think the Democrats in leadership don’t want to cause panic and riots, but I think they are very alarmed.

I have been particularly down the last couple of days. The knowledge that so many Americans are just horrible people is crushing.

4. It wouldn't be so tragic if Brother West didn't bend over backwards whoring for Trump

and if CNN wasn't so fixated on their manufactured "horse race" and precious ratings in 2016


I'm not kidding -- Cornel West needs to forever shut the fuck up about "fascism" he played an active, direct role in enabling because the time for his ass to actually say something was in 2016... But no, Obama for whatever reason didn't give West a front row VIP seat at the inauguration in '09 and he's been trying to fuck the Dems at every opportunity ever since.

(And before anyone asks, yes -- I kept receipts of every so-called liberal/leftist who smeared Hillary every fucking day while giving Donnie a pass; everyone who told their useful idiot followers to "send a message to the establishment" by staying home or voting third party because "both candidates were the same" and "there's no way that Trump could ever be worse than Hillary" or my eternal favorite: "Trump winning will be the best thing to ever happen to the Dems because he won't be popular and Congress and the Supreme Court will keep him in check if he gets too crazy!" )

5. I only vaguely know about him.

What you say is very interesting. Especially in light of what he said tonight. He said Trump was becoming Hitler and Mussolini.

I wonder what happened to his thinking.

[Blue_Tires]

6. I'd like to think he got his mind right when the President started holding actual klan rallies

And Nazis started marching down Charlottesville...

But the truth is most likely that he still knows his bread is buttered on the liberal side since there's no way the GOP would ever accept him if he tried to cross over...

8. Let's see if he supports the democratic nominee.

He supported Jill Stein in 2016 and praised "Brother Trump's authenticity." With friends like West, who needs enemies.

7. His own network just had a bunch right-wing extremist on

His own network just had a bunch right-wing extremist on and tried to play it as just typical republicans off the street. All republicans this day and age are racist and un-American.
