we have tickets to see them this july in torino :smith:

at least we got to see them in barcelona last year

I've never seen them live and I'm incredibly saddened by this.

When Til went to the ICU with Covid (or covid-like symptoms) I thought that was it, but apparently my dude is un-loving-stoppable and he was right back out like 2 days later.

Edit: A lovely snipe, my apologies. Please, take this as penance: what I'm sure is the greatest gif ever made, and exactly what I want to see at the top of a page.

I mentioned Douglas Pearce because Death in June is a specific reference to the Night of the Long Knives. Some of these people fixate on that as when the dream died; fascism good but Hitler bad, we don't have to account for anything the Nazis actually did. It accords very well with that supremely elitist outsider power fantasy.

I admit I used to listen to too many podcasts from Zero Books and Dead Pundits and a few other people who were obsessed with the questions "Does Trump meet the dictionary definition of a fascist" and "What's wrong with the woke liberal left."
i think that thing is kind of like the history channel in the 1990s, a.k.a. the hitler channel. like the surface layer message is that all these boots are bad, but we can't stop staring at them!

He’s real good. He showed up to the Camp Fire with food trucks and cooked food for first responders and anyone affected by the disaster.

Right now he's helping with the Restaurant Employee Relief Fund, which helps food service workers who can't work because of COVID. They're getting really slammed (there are a lot more restaurant workers than they can afford to give money to); they have $10 million and he's aiming to get up to $100 million. Since Diners, Drive-ins and Dives is unable to film for the foreseeable future, he's spending his energy on that.

He really is a good guy. He just plays a buffoon on TV.

*yeah i know greenwald's not proper "left", but harris' issue with him was from a rightwing perspective

God that email exchange that Harris posted where Noam just eats him up and Sam turned into a corn cob was truly one of my favourite self owns.

Especially Chomsky's derision at him even wanting to publish it. It's beautiful.

I can’t really think of nor find any examples of Harris feuding with alt righters. Shockingly, he has stanned some lighter alt-y adjacents like Jorp Jorp and defended the “Bell Curve.” Harris is basically a Bill Maher limousine liberal racist but with a PhD and lots of whispering about the singularity and tech bro stuff.

This reminds me of my favorite Taleb rant about Sam Harris which is that Sam is the expert at attacking what people say out of context but never what anyone actually meant.

greenwald is on tucker because he's persona non grata on other networks, and that's because he has leftist tendencies (sometimes marred by his libertarianism)
ezra has no leftist tendencies at all, which is why his turd site is so popular

it's bad because it bars leftist ideas and leftist ways of seeing the world from circulating in the public
he does the same on tucker's show, now whether the audience will actually give a poo poo, who knows
I find it interesting and indicative that you blame him for using the only outlet he has instead of the ones who banned him from all the others because they're in cahoots with the establishment, while at the same time positioning a ghoul like ezra klein on the left
