I think the thing that sucks about neoliberals who are in high places is that they really gently caress over the good will of a lot of the people who are truly out to help out others.

Like I doubt that a lot of Hillary supporters were against the sort of policies that say someone to the left of Hillary was for. A lot of us were on the same page pre-election 2016 on quite a few things. The problem with these politicians, media figures and what have you is they take advantage of people wanting to be compassionate and often times stab them in the back as a result.

It creates division and for what? So that things can remain the status quo?

I sincerely doubt that someone who voted for HRC in the primary would even remotely fall into that category, and I'm sure there will be a few goons ITT who can confirm it to me.

Shouldn't a dude who's covered PMCs and Dirty Wars be able to out debate and not fall for the gotcha traps of a gay brit who will do nothing but pretend he's a scandalous counter-culture agitator?

Part of the reason Milo keeps getting attention is because he faces off against screechy loons that don't do their homework. I figure some one with Scahill background would be able to school Milo like Van Jones was able to in that Carl the Cuck Slayer video. Seem kind of like a whiny tap out.

eh, on 2nd thought maybe I'll just wait till it pops up on youtube, but the point still stands.

smacking down guys like Milo, Piers Morgan should be like shooting fish in a barrel quite honestly. I don't understand this mindset. Christ Milo's claimed things like that historically "lesbians were never a thing". That's just an easy thing to pick off and run for a touchdown, yet people don't just nail him on that.,

Real Time is generally pretty good, I don't care for Maher's comedy bits, but I think he works well in the same way John Oliver does, as a kinda funny guy often calling out bullshit, Oliver's stuff is more straightforwardly informative usually, but I like Maher's interviews and debates and he's generally a pretty good moderator.

I haven't seen it for probably half a year though so I don't know if it turned bad or not in that time though.

Van Jones is pretty awesome.

After the election where he had the "Whitelash" comment, he actually interviewed people that voted for Trump to better understand them. Not a lot of his collegues in the mainstream press bothered to do that. To me that shows his character is a quite a bit better than a lot of mainstream dems right now.

We really could use more guys like him with mainstream access.

Ripping on Piers Morgan should be encouraged.

Jeffries did it a helluva lot better than Patton has been doing.

The problem is that Milo is very experienced with live show/interview/round table discussions so it would take some one with a decent amount of data/facts/research and a personality to really show him up. Milo lives on running circles around people that are either unprepared, thinking their the smartest person in the room and/or believe their cause is so just and right that no person could possible think otherwise.

He's been able to run circles around people who are making bad points that have been around for a long time by either refuting things properly(like the wage gap stuff) or by reasonably poopooing the perspective the other person is arguing from.

I don't recall him losing any serious arguments, and it's probably because he picks his battles and goes for things that have pretty soundly been won by other people already with him just reiterating points. I don't expect that we'll see him get trounced by anyone because he's not likely to argue a position that would be easily refuted in the first place.

As people have said his religious views are his only real "weak point" and on that he's pretty much just said "it's messy/I'm still working it out" so it's not like people can really get him on that, either.
