At the end of this interview this Cam person puts out that women and children in Gaza are being indiscriminately killed. Women and children are not being indiscriminately killed in Gaza, and nor is there a genocide in Gaza. Population stats show the population of Gaza to be about the same, while some say it has actually grown. No genocide, no indiscriminant killing - aside from Hamas. Why is Hamas still holding hostages?
That is such a BS repulsive comment to make, that is not true. Maybe he thinks Hamas was being discriminating when they broke into Israel from their Palestinian state of Gaza to kill, burn, rape, torture, kidnap, etc Jews on Oct 7th ... oh, but wait, Hamas did not discriminate on Oct. 7th or in any of their missile attacks did they.
WTF Bulwark, I haven't gotten into this besides just listening to it once, but what is the purpose of this wildcard guy Cam on this podcast? Bursting into the blame Israel for everything mode at the last five minutes of the podcast is just so fucked up.
Please someone enlighten me as to why this kind of framing statement in an interview appearance is not a dog-whistle to the religious extremist Muslims that wink-wink, we will boost these kinds of ideas to tell them it is OK to vote for this Muslims guy because this is how he really feels about Israel/Jews?
Cam, does Hamas need to be exterminated, along with this society where children are weaponized before they are even conscious? If so, what is your best idea for doing that better than the Israelis?
I find Cam to be a mixed bag at best. He's generally awful on any foreign policy issue because he seems to have little knowledge of history or evolution of US policy and a general revulsion of the use of hard power to advance US strategic goals which is, IMHO, understandable if myopic given various US blunders from 2003 forward. In that sense he's probably representative of his age cohort, so if the goal is to have a Bulwark voice for that cohort, I guess the goal is being achieved, as much as I find myself in disagreement with him many times. He's better on internal US politics. He is left, not center left, which occasionally makes his interactions with Tim more interesting.
Cam is Cameron Kasky, who does the FYPod here once a week with Tim Miller. He’s supposed to represent Gen Z, and their podcast is supposed to be a center left answer to the far right podcasts that rile up Gen Z in general, and young men in particular. He’s a survivor of the Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School shooting. Here’s his Wikipedia page:
Thanks for the information. I don't even know what to say about that guy other than he is certainly not center left, and is either being used or allowing himself to be used. I guess belching one's ignorance online is better than getting a real job.

Contemptuous is about as polite a word as I can manage. That's got to diffuse over to the Bulwark in general for putting him on.
Like everyone else, Bulwark needs content.
Pretty badly I'd reckon. ;-)
