He's claimed many times over the years, including at the U.N., that the Douma chemical weapons attacks were staged. He's an absolutely evil little propagandist ghoul. He has no soul. https://x.com/PostLeftWatch/status/1624876936626577408
Exactly right. Aaron Mate has been an Assad apologist since 2014 at least. Unfortunately his father (Gabor Mate) is a good man and that has given him credibility he does not deserve.
OK, I will reconsider my opinion. I have spoken with him on panels on Palestine in the early 2000s and he was very good. His work on Vancouver’s East Side was also very good, but this info is important.
I'm with you Aaron+imo,the HATERS should reframe from deeming your fierce&steadfast advocacy for this vile&recently deposed Despot(Bashar al-Assad)as an"ASSADIST"is,a lil over the top 🔝 however, i am convinced unequivocally the more apropos designation should actually be,"BASHARIST",what say yall???
#AaronMate put chemical attacks survivors at risk to get their (coerced) testimony with the Russian army.
He litterally walked on rubbles under which were bodies of civilians killed in their houses.
He repetedly denied war crimes by Assad & Putin to enable and abett them, in UA too.
We won’t forget.
To paraphrasing Churchill "Before 8th December you had 30 million pro-assadists, now you have 30 million anti-assadists but it doesn't look like demography suddenly changed"
And the same way he whitewashed
Putin/Russia’s crimes in Ukraine
When I think of the crap he wrote and how much suffering it caused those at the receiving end of the horrific crimes in both Syria and also in Ukraine, it makes me sick
Dear god, he was one of Assad's biggest apologists, and he and his ilk (Blumenthal et al) were all over the conspiracy.
And if Maté doesn't even know the English meaning of the transliterated Arabic words he's throwing around tonight with self-certainty, safe to block him and his useless takes.
