Matt Duss is a massive Zionist who supports the genocide in Palestine. Convenient for the foreign policy role.

Wheres the evidence he believes the same things as his dad?

My dad believed in chem trails and secret alien power plants underneath the pyramids, I don't.

My thought as well.

Is it not possible that this person is rebelling against his heritage with a political change?

Matt Duss is an absolutely awful Zionist who supports all US imperialist positions.

This is good info. Thank you.

No problem. Even Hasan Piker's own community fully turned on him in the comments of the interview which was pretty hillarious.

I actually watched part of it it live and was severely wondering at the time why Hasan wasn't pushing back because usually Hasan is pretty decent at calling it out. It was extremely weird.

So the purity test is now that if an advisor's dad did something wrong then we should not accept them. Got it.

Matt Duss is a massive Zionist as well and lives up to his dads reputation 100%.

He may well be but you didn't provide any proof of that. Do you see the problem?

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Did you try scrolling up and reading the proof at the other comment in the thread?

[–] MerrySkeptic@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You included the new proof after I wrote this. You know you didn't include any proof at the beginning of the conversation. Why not just own it?

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The proof was posted before your comment. I recommend you own your mistake

I can't see the timestamps, in my client it just shows both comments as having appeared 7h ago. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say that somewhere in the minutes before I wrote my response you did post a comment with evidence in response to another comment. Whoops, my bad. I could have looked harder before assuming that the evidence wasn't there. Not that hard.

Will you also acknowledge that generally speaking, to post a claim and then post the evidence to said claim in reply to a comment instead of in the original post is poor form and that the reader should not be expected to dig through comments to find evidence of a claim? Because I haven't seen you do that anywhere.

Additional info on Matt Duss is not necessary to put in the main post.

So four more years of trump? Cool.

Cool cool cool.
