Jon Stewart & Bassem Youssef Call Out “Performative” Outrage Over Israel’s War Crimes
Channel: The Humanist Report
Date: 12/04/2024

The insufferable finger-wagging at Israel by Democrats (still) refusing to cut off weapons is getting ridiculous. Comedians Bassem Youssef and Jon Stewart both criticized the disingenuous ‘concern’ feigned by politicians. The fake outrage, however, is all an attempt by Democratic elites to placate angry voters, but it’s not working. In this video, we’ll look at comments from both Youssef and Stewart, examples of “performative” outrage from politicians, and demands from voters that the Democratic Party and Joe Biden are refusing to meet.
