He's also a lovely libertarian and it can bleed into his presentation of historical events sometimes.

Overall usually worth a listen as long as you don't take everything he's saying as the 100% settled truth.

Wait what, since when is he a libertarian? isn't he big on things like universal healthcare?

this was always the biggest barrier of politics imo: that politics was House of Cards instead of Animal House

It really is a hilarious emperor has no clothes deal.

I mean Donald "2 Corinthians" Trump knows he doesn't give a gently caress about god, and they all know it too. When Trump was asked to name his favorite bible verse he literally couldn't even name one.
But they gotta pretend so that Trump can keep cracking down on abortions and facilitate the church grift, and not lose face with their fellow rubes.

Yeah it's entertaining as hell. Yeah Dan is a shite libtard and always has been, which is why his common sense show so often blows. But it has been really interesting over the years hearing how he's ever so slowly challenging some of that thinking and moving farther left. Turning point for him was probably finally coming to terms with what an absolute cesspool of right wing idiocy his site forums had become and removing that poo poo. He's a really likable guy, and I can't find his kind of storytelling in any of the other history type podcasts I've checked out (always looking for recommendations though!)

I did a thing posted:

like what if it meant the national god drat guard? yeah, it probably did. because if a tyrannical government tried to use the active duty forces to actually do some bad poo poo, the national guard would probably be like, "no. i'm not bombing my own neighborhood, gently caress off i just want the college money."

i don't entirely understand what the national guard is or how it works
(i thought i did at one point, but apparently in the Forever War Era we've been stretching what kind of activities the National Guard can be used for)

but yeah that sounds good too





also i know this will never work because consumption and personal property and ownership of said guns is core to the brain sickness that is gun fever, i just uh... i'm just thinkin out loud

he's a big old jumble of opinions that doesn't fit neatly into any box. in my experience listening to his politics podcast, 75% of the time he has a sensible enough take on something and the other 25% he gets a bit lost in the weeds and can't see clearly enough to really form a coherent opinion, so he defaults to talking about personal liberties and stuff

it can make him seem libertarian-ish but that's not how i'd describe him really

yeah now they don't have to wait until they grow up and have the illusion shattered by having to deal with these people or finding out that one of their idiot classmates got elected to the house of representatives or something like that
