He’s of the far-left school that thinks the USA can do no right, that uncritically oppose whatever the USA government does. Which makes him correct sometimes but really, really wrong on things like Russia. Russia loves people like him and supports them either directly or indirectly.
“NATO is an expanding instrument of U.S. global power that provoked Russia into a criminal invasion and occupation of Ukraine,” wrote West.
“When it comes to Ukraine, we must grasp the implications of NATO expansion and its potential to escalate into a catastrophic conflict,” West stated. He called for an end to the war in Ukraine and urged diplomatic negotiations to ensure both Russian security and Ukrainian freedom.
His view on Ukraine is pretty crazy, I don’t think people can support him in good conscience. It’s not enough to say that Russia’s actions are evil if you validate their supposed reasons for invading Ukraine.
My dad loves this joker, cus my dad is an embarrassed trump supporter. One grift to the next for him.
The only thing I could find on West saying about his “plan” for Ukraine is “I would pull back on the U.S. military support.” And call for a ceasefire, all while calling himself a “jazzman of American politics” and making sure everyone recognizes the historical context of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. He specifically mentioned Alexander the Great and the Cuban missle crises.
So, withdrawaling US support while calling for an immediate ceasefire isn’t what you would call “Ukraine should give up.”… I disagree. How do you characterize west’s position?
Can you provide proof for the claim that he’s repeating Russian propaganda? I’m reading and searching but don’t find anything like that.

And, he’s not asking Russia to withdraw. He’s asking Ukraine to give up.

he never said Ukraine should give up.

I’d say Dr west’s position is that the killing needs to stop
An accomplished scholar should have policy ideas that are deeper than that.
His platform, for those inclined.
it’s incredible to me that you would call one of the most accomplished scholars if our time “a joker”.
He’s a legend in his own mind, and the handful of people gullible enough to believe him.
he’s an ivy League philosopher.
Who was denied tenure. His celebrity vs his accomplishments is way out of whack. That’s an obvious sign of grifter. Jordan Peterson was a professor.
the reason for his denial is disputed.
Sounds like a joker to me.
you’re entitled to your opinion, but this is just name-calling.
