His opening statement on Sunday night was disturbing on several fronts. First of all, he went off on "nationalism," equating it with belief in an all-powerful federal government, whereas for most of us the term just refers to a belief in national sovereignty and looking out for our own national interests instead of interfering in the internal affairs of other countries.

Then, he went off against "populism," equating it with mob rule and direct democracy, whereas for us it just means a variety of politics which looks after the interests of the common man and the middle class rather than the elites.

Regarding the Ukraine, he seemed willing to risk nuclear war on behalf of a corrupt country that is not an ally. You don't have to defend Putin or his invasion to be wary of escalating the war to horrific proportions. Wars and civil wars have been raging off and on in Yemen, Somalia, the Sudan, and several other countries for years, and no one is banging the drums for us to go to war in any of those places or suggesting that we are immoral for not doing so.

Exactly, Levin just came out denouncing nationalism, populism, and he’s gung ho for another globalist neocon war, the exact opposite of what Trump represented, yet people still defend him. I just don’t get it.

It’s funny, because once again, we see a “war” which is basically WHITE which gets all the American leftists (in particular, but not just) in a tizzy, complete with new virtue-signalling such as the idiot down the street from us who puts out a Ukraine flag (and never an American flag).

Could it be they are “racist” or “bigoted” and only care when it’s WHITE wars that happen?
