I can condone gun violence while also not finding a single drop of empathy for someone who advocated for this type of violence to happen to others.

He was the monster.

You can not dehumanize someone who hasnt been a human for a very long time.

Lets save our energy for supporting his victims

So the "Suspect" looks to be wearing a long sleeve t-shirt with an American flag and eagle on it.
Doing a few google searches with this "Land Of The Free Home Of The Brave Long Sleeve Black Tee" provided an interesting find.

Definitely massed produced and resold often with MAGA targeted products

At this point I am convinced that Dr. Oz is a manifestation of RFK jr's brain worm.

Just as broken and disgusting as the host body

Dont let milquetoast Dems be the only choice on the ballot in the 2026 primary and general elections.

If you do not get up and do something about it then NO complaints when it is time to vote. Zip it.

Run yourself or go help find and support progressive candidates to run in the primaries.

This is frustrating. This is how Dems in Congress earned the reputation of not caring about the people they represent. Always focused on the wrong things.

Why not focus on the primaries coming up instead of more theatrics? What cant be reversed if they gain control of the house and senate?

The biggest issue is making sure that the people elected actually represent the will of the people and not corporate interests.

It does not good to "vote blue no matter who" if they are just republicans wearing a democrat party label.

Lets get better candidates in the primaries NOW.

Your daily reminder to go help a grassroots org in your area find progressive candidates or support existing progressive candidates.

Primaries are coming and it takes time to get out there and promote them.

These PACs need your help! It isnt just about protesting or door knocking.

Go get involved

Same with her content creator friends defending her.

There is too much going on right now to be worried about other people.

We should have one focus, that is the 2026 primaries that are only a few short months away.
Get your shit together my dude and stop being a sheeple.

You dont care that women are dying in hospital parking lots. You dont care that people are dying because they cant afford to live let a lone go to the doctor
IMO you dont really care about Gaza.

IF YOU DID, If you really cared about anything you wouldnt give 2 shits about her article.

different points of view and lack of empathy that is killing the trans community, deepening the divide between the black community and everyone else because you are so toxic. I really dont blame them however it makes everyone elses job harder when we have to repent for YOUR choices and failings.

you are ill because you claim BLM when it is the virtue signal of the week. But then when the next one comes along you dont care about black lives or the community. If they get stomped on you are good as long as it doesnt tarnish your new purity badge.

It is you guys so stuck unable to look at

progressive candidates. Focus on what is successful and what is not.

No you would rather just tear people down, making false accusations over and over again. No research, just nothing except hate.

This is why Hasan called you guys mentally ill the other day on his stream.

Like miss us all with that. That is why she is getting called out.

She isnt that slick.

As for you and people defending her, you are okay with focusing on THIS... People you guys never watch. Your comments 100% confirm this.

Instead of focusing on how to find and support better

said anything. But she has had a target on him since after the election and him along with a few others were invited to go to the WH.

Seriously, it is high school drama. One clique against another.

But causing this infighting and small content creators getting harassed so she could exact revenge?

NOT the point of her article.

If you read it, she points out how she feels BTC is a gatekeeper.

I guess in her twisted mind she was clearing the path for her friends to be more popular?

I guarantee had it been ANYONE other than BTC she would have never

She then conveniently left out a lot of truth, that as a journalist she should be held to doing which was discussing how a 501(c)(4) works, rules and regs and then how that impacts contracts.

But that would have not had the same impact.

Which would have been ETHICAL good reporting.

But that was

The reason why Taylor is being criticized and called out is because she left blanks spaces for people to fill in for themselves, used loaded language, appeals to emotions, and unrelated trigger words to get people to draw the conclusions she wanted without outright lying.

That is called framing

New 2025 poll by Quinnipiac show that (1,220 self-identified registered voters) 77% of the democrats polled believe Israel is committing a genocide in Gaza
75% do not support sending military aid to Israel

All other groups lag sorely behind or are largely Pro-Israel

That Democrat doesnt mean the same thing for the vast majority of people, right?

If you think that liberal or democrat only means neolib, centrist, establishment/corporate dem or libertarian then you need to understand this so you can apply better critical thinking.

Dont be a sheeple.

not true. You have listened to hyperbole and sloppy content creators who refuse to use qualifying language.

They told you that Liberal means something that doesnt mean the same thing for the majority of people.

Anyone NOT terminally online thinks liberal still means far left

You get that, right?

Neither, I absolutely hate misinformation.
I get a few hundred characters to try and explain something that is pretty complicated as you have some pretty set in stone biases.

You keep using loose terms like "They" or keep implying "all Dems or Liberals". I am literally explaining to you that is

She is either a REALLY bad journalist that did all of her readers a huge disservice

OR

She knew what she was doing by leaving out important info. That she thought everyone was an idiot and she could weaponize you to attack.

Both should make you mad

things like political financing, rules & regs, AND non-profits

When contracts are written any rules or regs must be taken into account. PERIOD.
This may include oversight, like I said before the wrong type of control was implied.

Once again the crux and why Taylor's character is put into question

06.09.2025 14:35 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

as someone who has experience in contracts for regulated industries

So think NDA's & contracts including independent contractor agreements (ICA). The content creators in Chorus are Independent Contractors

I also work with a grassroot PAC in the admin side so I am exposed or need to know about

Had Taylor included that info, like she should have. Then she wouldnt have had her gotcha.

That creator above has a total of 3 videos, she is a subject matter expert being a former journalist, and someone who has worked with issue advocacy orgs and political campaigns.

I can confirm her info

Iโ€™m reluctantly entering the @Taylor Lorenz / Chorus / left leaning content creators discourse, because a lot of people donโ€™t seem to understand how these groups work on a legal level. Also because Iโ€™... TikTok video by Kendall Brown

readers more.

She has compromised her integrity by co-oping whatever feels she has for BTC and Chorus into a hit piece.

She failed everyone by not consulting anyone knowledgeable on 501(c)(4) non-profits, their rules and regs AND contract compliance.

This is why I point you to this
