    I don't know if anybody cares about these people any more. To be honest I've started to get sick of Americans, especially the liberals/progressives (been watching libs of tiktok compilations lately and it's the way they talk and all the woke phraseology more than anything that makes my skin crawl), but still occasionally feel compelled to see what they're saying, partly to see the trajectory of notionally independent media, in the case of Krystal Ball & Breaking Points.

    Anyway, here's the debate:





    Didn't watch very long before getting annoyed about the gaslighting of Krystal & Kyle about the dems supposedly earth-shattering changes to union laws which means ppl should vote for Biden, despite his administration breaking the railworker strike and being a transparent enemy of the working class in every way. Gray seemed to not know about it and take it at face value K&K's claims, a disappointment. As Greenwald always says, you're supposed to start from the assumption that those in power are lying and investigate their statements from that starting point, not swallow what they're feeding you without question before regurgitating it to your audience. Sounds like Gray upped her game later on, judging by comments under the vid. I suppose I'll have to watch more of it now I've posted it up for discussion... sigh.

    Dore has K&K's number, though I think he's still bitter about being stood up for a Breaking Points interview in favour of Hasan Piker:








    Telling that the likes of Dore, Blumenthal etc never make an appearance on Breaking Points, though I think Greenwald is still welcome fwiw.
