The issues themselves aren't individualistic, responding by not voting for 
Democrats simply because of those issues is.

An extremely important point and a key reason that voting for Democrats does 
not equate to political capitulation unless one has some kind of 
individualistic moral analysis rather than a political one.

This makes no sense. If someone were a sexist and wrote sexist things, it 
wouldn't be "censorship" for a left press to not publish them and it would be 
wrong to dismiss that as a "political debate".
If you think Syria is confusing because of misinformation, then frankly you 
need better research and better critical thinking skills because it's three 
most documented "debate" one could look for.

This is so unspeakably vile for Counterpunch to publish this.

"A day prior, SANA reported on the collaboration between militants from the 
Turkistan Islamic Party (TIP) and Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) and the White 
Helmets to identify key locations, where sarin and chlorine gas has been 
shipped, to launch a potential chemical weapons attack."
