    and he is getting handsomely paid to continue his show… if you’d tell me he retired from TV to just become and activist you’d have a solid point

      You clearly don’t know anything about being an activist if you think quitting his national TV gig to dedicate more time to activism makes any sense at all.

      Activism is about reach and impact, not doing performative stunts that don’t matter in the grand scheme of things. Getting in front of the camera every day and talking about the things that matter in an accessible way is far more effective than gluing your hands to a freakin crosswalk.

      Do you want to know why the left isn’t organized? It’s because people like you are always ready to trash anyone who shows even a little promise of being a leader.

      He did retire and did become an activist. He came back because of popular demand. Which is not something most politicians could or would do.

      He was willing to go against Apple while being paid by Apple. I still have a valid point, and you have nothing but negativity. Sad.

        Sure a millionaire who could retire tomorrow and live in luxury for 3 lifetimes is not afraid of stop working… wow, what courage

        Sadly, you seem to be too deep in the problem to understand you are just adding fuel to the dumpster fire
