wait you mean the "nato aggression" guy is backed by guys who have those opinions due to the money and the connections and the shared goals, I find this deeply unbelievable there must be an alternative explanation
I didn’t even know about this
I watched one of his speeches at random just to see what the guy was about and TL;DR I wasn’t impressed and I would not be at all surprised to learn that the Republicans are trying to trick leftists into getting behind him. But I hadn’t heard that he also dislikes NATO. That seems like a weirdly specific and incongruous stance for him to take, given how extraordinarily nonspecific was a lot of the stuff he was saying when I watched him.
One could make an argument that NATO is a continuation of the military-industrial complex that Eisenhower warned about. But Cornell West just saying "I oppose NATO" without making that argument is pretty weird.
