This is Sus and the Star Wars episodes have been excellent content. Matt Chrissman slowly shrinking into an irritable corncob has been less than enjoyable. I like his points and his intelligence but his character on the show is irksome and he is like King Interuptus from the land of “Never let anyone else get a punchline in”

Matt is fine.

Hes annoying, but he isnt so defeatist ridiculous as Amber.

"Yeah Im going back to my grassroots activism, but your grassroots activism is bullshit"

They have all lost it, they complain electorial politics is dead, but then all their activism was worthless as well, and then poo poo on grassroots activism generally.


They are going through a nonsense stage, they are young, havent lost elections before, they think its some one off amazing event for them and their kind.



Its funny they shat on Gen X, they will understand us soon enough, when they lose the attitude.

Unsubscribed for now. Don't really listen to podcasts as much these days and Chapo needs to rediscover either their fire and brimstone (sorry, but down-ballot nitpicking and dreaming of the next socialist candidate does not cut it; especially since their own premise was that it was Bernie or Bust as far as the future of western civilization is concerned), or start being funny again.

I prefer Matt to the point where his solo stuff is often my favourite content, but sometimes he needs to calm down and shut up and let other people talk.

ep 410 is the saddest show of mis-quided fuckups its insane. literally cancel your patreon poo poo.

Felix was the most sane and he kept mostly out of the stupidity.


P.sure they are paid by someone to still have her on to poo poo on stuff, or shes legally obligated to a slice of the patreon.

Maybe Red Scare pays for her to come on and offer awful opinions.

I thought Amber gave a decent answer: it matters that voters don’t really believe facts presented by the media because it changes the context of how you discuss facts/the media.

I thought Amber's point was okay when she boiled it down - basically you will never get anywhere by trying to rebut disingenuous allegations, the only answer is to discredit the press that's making them in the minds of voters.

Right. Her point was that you don’t argue that Corbyn isn’t an antisemite/Bernie is electable, you argue that the media is full of poo poo.

Yeah, they (and an entire generation of people) just experienced a giant bitter defeat so it's understandable if they are depressed for a month or two.

This is exactly what I think.

Virgil has done the right thing by taking a "holiday". If the circumstances weren't so crazy they all should have had a real one and taken time off the show.

Matt's Instagram live things have been good. I also wish they'd bring back the reading series and just bully and deride media shitheads again

One thing this election cycle proved is that the pundits are absolutely aware of chapo and personally hurt by the mean things they say

They are literally dropping everything except for middle road punditry?

Because real work takes more than one election cycle?

And they are just kids and didnt know what may happen?

And are rich enough to get by without ever having to put in the real work so will just walk away losing minimal audience of the same type of people, from anything actually grass roots or street level organising?
