I was thinking through the whole Hunter story that he's a much better fit for the "diamond Joe" Onion treatment. Like he's too upscale for it to fit the white trash mold exactly but it's pretty close otherwise.

Apparently that is the issue and I don’t think that’s always accurate. I think it’s a little absurd for the JW to pile on that Tweet and assume Matt is being anti-Semitic.

It's why the dirtbag left is cool and good.

Also Matt was 100% correct on I think it was the Pod drat America Neoliberal episode when he said the disagreements between leftists basically comes down to different kinds of posting.

Also to whomever wanted more outside of Chapo episodes with the hosts, the PDA Neoliberalism episode is fantastic.

When Corbyn got poo poo for skipping over a Friends of Israel event to go do a Passover event with Jewdas, one of the things Jewdas stated when confronted over it, after telling the main press and Blairites and so on, was that they did have a guide on stuff like this, which the Jewish Worker was connected if I recall well.

Which is fair, but this is like a bend-the-knee level bad faith interpretation and in a moment when we have the Holocaust Museum failing to understand the point of "never again" it's extremely disappointing to see as a Jewish person.

The reason the lizard people theory is such a popular meme is because it's an attractive metaphor. Reptiles are simple, solipsistic creatures concerned only with survival, territory and reproduction. They don't waste energy on relating to others, their brains can't even recognize individuals and can only see other life as something to kill, run from, or gently caress. "Elites are secretly lizards" speaks to the basic and correct intuition that the ultra-powerful are complete loving psychopaths who only pretend to have values for their personal benefit.

The boring and stupid interpretation by anti-Semites, who are racist dullards, is "secret Jews" but you can only tell that someone is using it this way if they, y'know, apply it to Jews
