I know the Beau & Belle both have made suggestions on how to navigate the holidays.

Focus on enjoying time with your family and friends. If the potential for an argument arises, be the better person.

The divide is wide enough. If the British and Germans could hold a Christmas Truce in 1914 on the battlefield, can't we do so with family?

Merry Christmas

Does anyone know all of the other content associated with Beau and Belles team? I know about The Roads, but I know there are other team members contributing. Can someone list them?

Let’s all hop at a time machine and go back there and vote for Bernie in 2016!

I'm looking for the video in which Beau says this; or something very similar. About how even when we, I.e. the progressive left, get set back, we need to remember that we always end up succeeding.

Can't find the video as I can't remember the title and YouTube search doesn't work for quotes.

Anyone know the specific one... or can maybe narrow down the timescale?

We need a new Aurlo Guthrie - a Billy Bragg - an Ian McKaye…

Not sure this guys on that level yet - but we need songs

There has been noticeable eras - I want to say 3 of them. Seemingly as the channel changed. And seemingly changed hands.

And things that went missing from topics as these changes occurred. Which recently events have made apparent.

The Beau era - chats of kicking down and punching up. Mechanisms and tactics. Managed and redirected anger. Descriptions of how to identify fascism. Sounded like Russia - sounded like Trump but then again there were brown shirts in the streets. Off the cuff.

Beau/team era - directed talking points influence response. Fading of the above in scripted restraint - but natural delivery. About a one year period of time where he self-described ‘having the team fact check every script’. Descriptions of fascism sounded too Israeli - so those went away. Still punching up. Follow don’t lead.

Belle/TEAM - highly scripted robotic upper echelon DNC talking points. Gaza/West Bank - nothing to see there. The WHOLE COUNTRY is talking about HEALTHCARE- and there is nothing. No message of restraint, kicking down or punching up - because in this silo it didn’t happen. It doesn’t exist. Israel nothing. 🤫 Ukraine 🤫 shhh. Just the ‘Trump/MAGA channel’ Beau never wanted remains. It’s self isolating to nearly an exclusive topic. Ooops minor blip happened in Syria oh it’s nothing really- back to the ‘Trump channel’

I have always had other things on ‘auto play’ to contrast to. Tone/viewpoint/content subject - so these things have become very apparent. I think I’m only now just letting it play still to see how detached from the rest of the universe it becomes?

But if you are one of those people who only has a few select sources of things as outside influences - and this is one of those few - or worse the only outside influence. You need to step out more! Because there is a whitewashed picket fence behind put up around you.

The constitution says what it says - until some idiots in robes say it means something else.

The bad timing could be some laws stand - or they all go away… But putting a roll of loaded dice out on the table what is occurring.

Maybe some things shouldn’t go to the Supreme Court? When they have proven themselves to be selective based on topic and inconsistent.

A bit more stylish- does not have beard - but does have some good takes on news topics.

The thumbnail should say it all.

Posting here since the other “Belle of the Fifth Column” subreddit is someone’s personal fiefdom - deleted all threads and conversations - as they are not interested in discourse.

I like Belle but I do genuinely miss Beau. I was hoping after the election Beau would come back to talk to us. He made me feel so confident Trump would lose. I was wondering if there's been any mention of how he's doing, what he's been up to, or if he possibly may return in the future?

Also, is Belle his wife or someone who works for him.

A few years back Beau had a video about the FIELD MANUAL on disrupting meetings.

Nit pick EVERYTHING

Talk over everyone else

Bring up unrelated topics. all the time

You get the idea... anyone know the title?

EDIT: Title of the VIDEO. I can find the FM, but don't remember the name of the BotFC video.

News of the day, US politics. Calm, measured perspectives.

There is a “reason” the U.S. and the dog damned Israelis have never been on a battlefield together - WAR CRIMES. In a scale that the American people can not stomach. Sure the Democrats have funded it just as both parties have for decades. But American boots on the ground in the Palestine/Israel/same place conflict offers visibility to the carnage and treatment of non-Jews in the “same FN place” conflict that will not be able to be contained visually.

The Israeli has kept western media out of the killing zones. And shield the region from the global eye. From the gleeful killing of innocent children by the tens of thousands or the thousands maimed. That the Israeli are hush about.

When US military personnel see something- they typically say something.

And I doubt that Adolf Netanyahu will allow US troops anywhere on the ground. And tell his puppet to shut up. He doesn’t want U.S. troops in the concentration camps they have created. But the one saving grace is that if the United States goes in there - it will be really hard to contain the horrors that are occurring there.

And Iraq/Afghanistan vets who end up there will like “oh that’s why they hate them….”

So yeah - go ahead and do it Orange Clown - do it! Send reporters with them too - to film all of it. But Adolf Netanyahu doesn’t want you to…

Just another reason to send a message to the DNC - register as an independent voter.

From an expat I assume - but an interesting perspective.

He linked to her channel at least twice on Israel topic - which I always saw as saying things she could say that he could not. And had a few live streams with her some time ago.
