    This hilarious video exemplifies how stupid and infantile discourse on Syria is: If you oppose regime change and arming of fascist contra "rebels," a braindead neocon with a sinecure in the corporate media smears you as an Assad apologist using insults they can't spell or definepic.twitter.com/m0MLaHFPiX

        Neocon NY Times columnist Bari Weiss smeared Tulsi Gabbard (who bravely opposed regime change and US support for Salafi-jihadist contras) as an "Assad toady," then couldn't spell/define toady or offer any evidence to prove her smear. Embarrassingly funnypic.twitter.com/m0MLaHFPiX

        What's pitiful is this is the best the US corporate media can offer. Bari Weiss, in all of her bold inanity and hilarious ignorance, was the NYT's eleventh-hour attempt to salvage neoconservatism for a new generation, before this rotting empire exhales its last gasp and implodes.

        The ending: "Am I crazy?" No. The entire corporate press is crazy - 😀

        Replying to @BenjaminNorton

        When you have heard the word only in context and ask for a double-check before you double down on a claim, is that really stupid and infantile? What do you think about Tulsi's opposition to regime change? Why do you think "neocon" label is correct?

        I think it's good that he had her on. Compartmentalization of groups is how people are controlled in divide & rule schemes each one in their own version of a false reality bubble=better to burst the bubbles & expose both perversions shattering their ability to pull in others.

        @joerogan you should get @tulsigabbard on your show; I think she deserves a fair opportunity to respond to the charges that @bariweiss leveled against her.

        Sunny he had her on the show -- it was a great interview! That's one of the things he references, that he interviewed her and really likes her.
