"You've got to have a social movement on the outside that generates leaders who have a history of being anti-genocide," the third-party leader said.

West spoke with the Washington Examiner’s Christian Datoc at the Abandon Biden convention, hosted down the street from the Democratic National Convention. He denied in strong terms that he had ever been a fan of “top cop” Vice President Kamala Harris and accused her of complicity in genocide.

    They’re obviously massively different situations

    I agree with that.

    Cornel West is okay with genocide

    I don’t think we will agree on this topic; Cornel West does not believe the government and military talking points around Ukraine.

    I make it a priority to try and follow the military leaks and whistleblowers that helped call out the lies of our nation. I see why people are waking up to the reality of US imperialism, where we continue to push for more forever wars, Ukraine and Israel being examples.

        government and military talking points

        continue to push for regime change and aggression

        Our government and our military will always have an excuse to push for more wars.

        We are doing much worse things than what other nations are doing, the only difference is that everyone has a phone and can share the videos and images of what we are doing and funding around the world.

        We do not have the excuse of not seeing the images and videos being shared in social media.
