Listening to the Chapo-adjacent QAnon Anonymous, and they’re doing episodes about Stefan Molyneux. My god, the guy actually sounds like someone doing a mediocre snooty French villain.

pretty much what he did to finkelstein (also personal because finkelstein pantsed him on democracy now).

During the spring and summer, as Dershowitz pressed his position, even some old allies were taken aback by his rhetoric. At one point, Epstein reacted to his statements in the news by e-mailing a friend, “Dershowitz is out of his mind.”

Their deep dives into random conspiracy related topics have been pretty good. I think overall the show has become way better since Julian started writing scripts for their episodes.

The latter, at first I listened to the episode with Felix and thought it was kind of boring, then later I returned and listened to some newer episodes and I was surprised by how good and funny it was. Especially the short stories that get dramatized in some of the episodes get me good.

relistening to this democracy now! "debate" between dersh and finkelstein and he straight up says more israeli civilians have been killed than palestinian civilians. holy poo poo.

also doesn't let finkelstein speak which is definitely what you do when you're winning.

edit: holy poo poo this is making me cush levels of enraged.

Greenwald is simultaneously a very important figure and a dumbass. Unlike Tracey who is just the latter.

Also I think often of the tweet imagining that his beautiful family is standing with him laughing as he attacks people on twitter.

Greenwald has done more journalistic work and objective good for the world than 90% of journalists alive today so I don't really care that he goes on The Bad Network when the other two white supremacist networks banned him anyway.

Also his husband is a cutie, and no one married to a cutie can be a bad guy. That's just science.

I agree, but Carlson is a megaphone, not a dog whistle for rich liberals

in the end they both reach an audience of mostly 60 somethings but yeah tapper hurts because his audience of mostly democratic viewers could possibly be swayed to something good. carlson viewers are all raging psychopaths.

Misremembering since she straight up decided it was a good idea to send the documents thru government owned facilities.

That being said (And to tie this part with the other Brazil heavy episode that Amber did), there's a bit of an industry in Lusophone media where they do precisely the "Actually, Bolso fans aren't so right wing and people are too harsh with them" shtick, that Glenn part buys and Lula prodded Glenn about on his Intercept interview.
Of course, their jobs kind of stopped when more and more blood started pouring and have successfully argued for "vacations" and archiving their Pro-Bolso work. One, hilariously, even attempted to argue himself for a New York Times position as a leftwinger because he wanted Obamacare to be back. Which becomes more hosed up in hindsight as he also got his "Please have colleges investigated and shut down if they do a left wing propaganda when Bolso and Orban started cracking down on such".

Yes, but that was the fault of the new york office, which at the time was a gawker coworkin space, rather than glenn, who wasn't involved.

yea they could have been a little more tight on their end but Winner literally used her work computer to send the poo poo, there was no real 'protecting' her other than advocating for her release and all, which is what they've done.
