He was very critical of the DNC candidates during the election. Saying Biden wasn’t pro-union and talking about how unfit Biden is for office, etc. He also seemed to be very critical of socialism in the USA. He seems to take a controversial stance on every possible subject, possibly just to promote his podcasts and live shows.

He comes off as one of those people who doesn’t want anybody on the left to win, but he just doesn’t support the right, either.

When the GOP adopted anti-intellectualism.

He’s literally on the board of a union and everything I’ve seen him say is very pro union, I think you may be taking something out of context.

Connover said Biden wasn’t pro-union. I’ll make an edit to use more clear language.

When was he critical of socialism? I saw him once interview a socialist who said socialism in the USA was on life-support. That’s all I could find.

Exactly. His defeatism was criticism. His alarmism was dissuation.

Look, I’m not labelling him the enemy or anything, but I just don’t like the guy.

Personally saying that socialism is half-dead seems like a good description to me. It was also seen as an improvement from being totally dead in that interview. Adam himself is a union guy so he definitely seems not defeatist.

In any case I can understand your position. I personally dislike quite a few people in the movement even if I don’t see them as enemies.

Biden wasn’t pro-union, and he was unfit for office. Sounds like Conover was absolutely right

Edit: hey wait, I just realized I went down the wrong argumentative avenue. The fact that Biden was better than Trump doesn’t mean he was pro-union or fit for office. Conover remains correct

We could have had option C
