How Darwinian posted:having no idea what "conflicting values" means, descending into platitudes about the differing philosophies on the free market, and how you leftists can't just say "my way or the highway" I was thinking about that one a lot. It's easy to forget that most people are trained to view ideology and philosophy as a mere opinion and not how people interpret the world. People can claim they have a philosophical commitment to free market capitalism, but never once in their lives have those preconceptions ever been challenged. They don't actually believe in anything it's just assumed that's how it is. Capitalist realism is so thorough that you can draw a direct line from the surge of the online left today to people getting radicalized on LF 10 years ago. You can't just handwave away the contradictions by saying people have philosophy.

Learning about gladios is very eye opening, the global network of fash/cia is so horrifying.

I'm not sure if this is a thread that would be worth talking about it in or not. Has anyone listened to The West Wing Thing from Dave Anthony & Josh Olson? I only heard about its premise and it seems somewhat interesting and politically oriented. quote:hosts & screenwriters Josh Olson (A History of Violence) and Dave Anthony (Deadly Class), gleefully tear apart each episode of the West Wing for its smugness and centrist politics. They don’t just troll the show either; they lay down a solid case for every criticism they lob. They know how show business works, they know their American history (Anthony also hosts the history podcast The Dollop) and they’re certain they know who’s to blame for all of the West Wing’s issues: West Wing creator Aaron Sorkin.

Both hosts are TV dudes, so they're really good at breaking down like writing or production stuff, but when it gets into nitty gritty political stuff they have to rely on Dave's vague memories of the Clinton years The episode they did with Chris from Chapo about Sorkin's stage production of To Kill A Mockingbird is really good.

I try to get into political podcasts every now and then but they usually just make me feel lovely so I devolve into listening to a comedy podcast (eg. The Dollop, which is how i heard about the show) to help me stick my head in the sand and not revert back to more self destructive tendencies I've had in my life. So a funny podcast ripping apart politics/politicians would be nice to have. Mekchu has issued a correction as of 21:55 on Jan 10, 2020 |

Xaris posted:ah good to know, i'll check her stuff out. are chuds just mad at her for liking another leftist trans youtuber? No, twitter trans people are mad at her because Contrapoints had Buck Angel do a voiceover in one of her videos. It's been this whole thing where people got mad at Contrapoints, and then got mad at everyone associated with her. People were demanding her IRL friends publicly denounce her, and it's basically been a huge thing. And Mia Mulder isn't even part of it, she doesn't know and has never worked with Contrapoints, but she replied to one of Contrapoints' tweets about it with a heart emoji. And ever since the apparently people have been threatening her, doxxing her, and demanding she apologize and publicly denounce Contrapoints.

It varies from episode to episode, depending on how relevant to modern political issues a given episode of West Wing is. But TV stuff is their strong suit so they usually do focus on that.
