If you don't think Tucker Carlson is a household name you are deeply out of touch with the country

tbh that mushmouth conference is a lot less about obfuscating things for cred or clout in the academic world and a lot more about graduate students and professors getting their universities' foundations to pay for them to take a trip to berlin so that they can party and gently caress each other DER FUNKY BEATS, am I right

He was always the sniveling bowtie dipshit cackling at the jokes made by big dogs like Hannity and O'Reilly, now he's neck and neck with Hannity for ratings. An inspirational story to Salacious Crumb figures the world over.

Yeah, I always thought of him as the guy who got owned so hard by Jon "DANGEROUS MARXISTS!!!" Stewart that they canceled his show. (I've heard that he was already planning to leave, but whatever.)

Tucker got the prime slot so he gets to be famous for the kinds of people who watch Fox News.

Halloween Jack posted:This is reaching way back, but I wanted to talk about it anyway, apropos of nothing. Something I found jarring about the interview was that the guy would say something like "collapsing the multiplicitudes of attenuated counter-hegemonies," but then when he specifically referenced Hegel, his cohost would jump in and mock-scold him about being too academic. The encounter was apparently so traumatic for them that they had to do a follow-up: I went and listened to that Superstructure episode tonight, and you know what, I take back any criticisms I've made of Matt's streams. If that is indicative of the discourse going on in the online leftist spaces than it is completely worthless, and now I am going to log off and grill some hot dogs.

The Superstructure hosts seemed to be pretty defensive whenever Matt mentioned college. I sort of disagree that people in the US don’t identify themselves by class. They do but in largely useless ways, like when they’re talking with each other about how rough they had it as kids. Not in any sense to organize which would actually be useful. Humbling someone on the internet because “aw boohoo first world problems” is way more important to most people.

If people don’t sort themselves by class then why was everyone so surprised that juggalos had mostly okay politics

Americans don’t have a conception of class, they just have a general sense of how well-off they are compared to other people.

No, “class without solidarity” would be recognition that you are a member of the proletariat but you identify more strongly with something else like your race or religion.
|
# ? Jan 16, 2021 04:49 |
|
Why would anybody want to primarily self-identify as “poor”? You identify as something you can feel good about- you religion, your race, your gender, your team, your gaming console, etc.

yeah. E: but the idea that the proletarian must be “poor” is sort of what I’m talking about here. The Kingfish fucked around with this message at 05:20 on Jan 16, 2021 |

THS posted:did they talk about the innocence of roman polanski and how harvey weinstein has been treated terribly unfair Didn't come up. A lot of that vein of conversation is about how allowing tech overlords to dictate who gets to use the common spheres of speech will lead to suppression of leftists, from a guy who's experienced it first-hand because Google cracked down on his website's rankings.

And I think that dude's right. It's along the same lines of what Matt has been talking about in the vlogs, both the conservatives and the libs want to continue unfettered capitalism that allows the very rich to pull the copper wire out of the walls of society while blaming outgroups. The libs cheer it when the outgroups are racist dickbags, but they're still functionally redirecting the anger the working class should feel together at the failures of capitalism toward an outgroup.

You could try reading the article that explains it in detail instead of just reading a screenshot of the headline in a tweet https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2021/01/16/amaz-j16.html posted:The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has given the go-ahead to the union recognition vote at the Amazon fulfillment center in Bessemer, Alabama, just outside of Birmingham. Workers are expected to vote later this month on whether to certify the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU), which is affiliated with the United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) union, as their official bargaining agent.
