Bannon is a populist, and America-first nationalist. Bannon is NOT a free-market reagonomics Republican. Remember, one of his criticisms of Obama was that he didn't bail out the auto-industry enough. This shouldn't be surprising who actually pays attention. There is also a large amount of Obama - Bernie - Trump voters, people need to get rid of simple Left vs Right thinking, there are multiple dimensions to politics.

		The reason it is still red v blue, despite the more nuanced politics, is that in the end, those smaller groups majority, reliably vote for one party. It is good to see independents growing as a group and the parties shrinking, it's trending towards 50% last I saw

Not a bromance.

Bannon for 10 years continues his plant left, pivot alt right. He wants far right nationalism, and AI to bootlick.

Liberals still falling and giving the racists destroying America false equivwlents.

		One of the main reasons the UN commission gave for concluding there was a genocide in Gaza was that in December 2023 an Israeli tank shell struck an IVF clinic. Which caused the loss of approximately 4,000 frozen embryos and 1,000 specimens of sperm and unfertilized eggs. There have been more than 100,000 live healthy births in Gaza since then. Meanwhile, in the USA there are about one million abortions carried out per year (funded and promoted by the left). So if one Israeli stray shell unintentionally destroying 5000 embryos is an act of genocide, then the systemic intentional killing of millions of developing babies surely would be one too. But what the far-left excels at is hypocrisy and derogatory hyperbole.
