lol Episode 1. Every candidate in the debate for Homie County Recorder of Deeds was an ardent leftist.

From that list it seems like the defining trait of leftist media is "knowing Felix Biederman"

Giving to the People’s Policy Project is good if you want to create documents that the centrist media is forced to contend with and discuss. The right funds plenty of think tanks, and these shape the landscape of viable discussion for the media that most people read, so it would be a good idea to fund our own.

Chapo pays their guests now though right? That seems more reasonable to expect than "movement building," which I don't think they'll ever claim to do


vvv yeah that's what I was thinking of. for better or worse they actively avoid it outside of promoting already-huge events or specific candidates.

they have always said that the podcast is not "doing politics"

these folks would know that if they actually listened to anything on that list (which includes cum town, red scare and episode 1 for some reason)

anyone who converts to catholicism as an adult should be put into a mental institution. who the gently caress looks at the other christian religions and thinks "no thanks, I want a bunch of weird robes and rituals, also a portion of my church donations should go to fund an international pedophile ring"

nah regular old "I had hit rock bottom" converts usually get into some form of protestant christianity, because they're the ones that recruit aggressively and really push the redemption angle. catholic converts are either incels obsessed with "degeneracy", or op-ed writers in need of a gimmick
