Considering Chapo-level political commentary is "hot takes, no we didn't do any reading", this seems fine.

Yeah, and what we need in 2020 is truly high-quality political commentary.

Completely unironically and sincerely, the entire series of Blackadder Goes Forth, but especially the final episode, is a stunning piece of antiwar fiction.

watched this today based on your rec. it was solid. I gave up on the show during series 2, but that last season is good stuff

The show has pretty much defined U.K perceptions of WWI, which is pretty great because all the tories get incredibly mad that don't think their grandad lord Nonce the III was a hero for getting 10 million people killled at the somme

Some thoughts about today's episode. It's foolish to think that the Bolivia's Coup government ever had a job to make new "fair" elections

And two I think Felix has a good point about 2007/8 being the end of "Old America" but I'm not sure how much of that is his own nostalgia to be in his teens to early 20s again l

it was just taking the usurpers at their word: they said that they only did the coup to have another election, and they can't even do that. it's just tracing the facade and pointing out that the internal logic isn't even being met.

Yeah but when has a South American coup ever lived up to the logic given for the coup and wasnt a blatant grab by reactionaries, though I don't get why the constant delays for the election when they could just rig the vote

Streaming about why the Confederacy was bad and the world would probably be better if Lincoln had survived, last I checked.

first there would be a cspam podcast

then someone would get mad and call the podcasters revisionist because they don’t like beans

then there would be a breakaway podcast claiming to be the real cspam podcast

by the end of it there would be 12 podcasts and 100% of their listeners would be the other podcasts trying to beef with them

If the 2008 election was the end of Old America, there was a years-long process of reality unwinding into fever dream logic that we called the Bush administration.
