[Peace-discuss] Inside Trump Defense Secretary Pick’s Efforts to Halt Torture - The New York Times

[Jay]

That article I shared is from Revolution newspaper, which is a publication of the Revolutionary Communist Party. Do we evaluate ideas based on their source, or the content? You mention only the one. 

RefuseFascism.org is a far far broader movement. One of the initiators is a member of the RCP, Carl Dix. Everyone is invited to check out the scope & range of the people <https://refusefascism.org/we-refuse-to-accept-a-fascist-america/#sign> who have joined in this effort, at no small risk to themselves, and the Crowdrise crowd funding site lists the donations that funded the NY Times ad. 

I’m taken aback by this red baiting. If the RCP is involved in something, it’s “their ad?”
