Just watched that video. Sounds like Booker did a good job. It needs to be not just a one-time thing, but it is certainly a start. And while it very fucking late, it is better than not at all. PLEASE can we have more of this?

He’s already being interviewed about it?!

I thought he’d collapse for the next 25 hours. (And deserve it.) :grimacing:

Not an interview; a reaction video.

Right, but it opens with Booker being interviewed after his speech.

Yeah Rachel Maddow interviewed him on MSNBC shortly after he finished last night. He looked ready to collapse.

Apparently, he took questions from a few sources, right after; which is downright amazing.

You’re right; he had to have been utterly exhausted.

“Nazi analogies in politics”, he added, “only serve to trivialize the Holocaust and the memory of the six million Jews who perished during World War 2.”

No they don’t, ADL. The reason this Nazi analogy is a problem is because it is a lie and projection. But there are actually very good reasons one might compare the party that’s about white supremacy and elimination of trans people and secret police deporting people without trial and crowding them into concentration camps and even copying Hitler’s arm salute to the Nazis. I guess we have to wait until six million Jews have been murdered before it’s appropriate to notice the similarities? :unamused:

I’m guessing no one called him out for being uncivil either. Assholes.

Pretty much… :rage: God I hate this stupid timeline.
