The tradwife thing is really a desire for another mother to warm up tbeir pizza rolls while they game. Of course this women needs to be sexually attractive and available while at no times making demands on the failson to be anything other than a failson.

All the benefits, none of the duties.

I thought they would mention some conservatives getting "non-western" women who aren't "corrupted by feminism" as well.

Jeet is kinda a dork but he knows it and can take a burn without going into "RIP MY MENCHIES". Self awareness goes a long way.

why do so many people on twitter (ok, two people that I can think of, neera tanden and kurt eichenwald) believe that concocting after-the-fact screenshots will be an explanation for their behavior that will pass the smell test

Because they highly value appearing to be "good" and "correct" (and not actually being either of those)

There was a twitter thread recently theorizing that all the alt-right nazi types post a ton and have lots of bots/garbage posts, which twitter can use to show (inflated) customer count/usage so they don't really want to mess with them.

Edit: That is the thread. You could even make the same argument that is why they haven't banned/stopped Trump from tweeting. Dumb poo poo like covfefe must create crazy spikes in their revenue.

Pelosi: Look at this scar. This is proof that I was once a mother. I gave up my body for Obamacare. There is nothing left inside me now. Nothing at all. No hatred, not even regret. And yet sometimes at night I can still feel the pain creeping up inside me. Slithering through my body, like a snake.

it's funny that all these people are unable to differentiate between podcast hosts and podcast fans, but it's a lot less funny that there's a ton of mentally ill chapo fans harassing people in a misguided attempt to emulate their heros or something

Seeing how much they tried to link Bernie Sanders the candidate with "BernieBros" it's definitely intentional.

It's so weird that Rod's emails are written in that same style/cadence of a sermon, with weirdly specific yet unimportant details and danger lurking in every corner.

I'm very happy they brought up tinsleys DUI, there was a lot of stuff that I wish they had been able to go into, but I recognize that normal people don't need to spend hours listening to them describe chuck or mike's gatbage. I would love for them to have Matt Bors on in the future.

They should have discussed Garrison's odd adventures of 4chan editing in the A Wyatt Man Jew caricature into his cartoons before he became all MAGA.

I don't really understand why everyone (on Twitter) is drawing a connection between Sam Kriss and the Chapo dudes. He's been on the show once (which is significant of course) but what's the connection aside from that?

They fund stuff like this so they can get the message out about this stuff. Even if 99% of people think it’s dumb if they get that 1% on board it’s a win for them. Also it keeps the whole idea of “safe spaces are a silly concept” in the discourse despite it being a pretty normal idea.

Yeah, I totally get the people from Chapo's extensive, ah, coverage, I'm just wondering what the deal is with the actual literal lanyard they wear, if that's a thing you see because people are working in government and need to pass checkpoints, or if it's an actual fashion statement among awful tools, or what.

I am too slow to know what a govcon is :(

It’s not a fashion statement, it’s a status symbol. It’s a way to show you’re a big shot at the cracker factory DC because you have access/work for whatever your lanyard gets into. Armando Ianucci said that whoever Jonah from Veep was based on would brag how once he got a White House lanyard he “used to get 6s, but now gets 8-10s”.
