I'm sure I'll regret asking: I don't trust Vaush and don't watch his videos, but why is he bad? Just a bad-faith actor?

Pepe Silvia Browne posted:his opinion just happens to align with the mainstream democratic party and military industrial complex's views on basically every issue possible, despite nominally being a "leftist" Gotcha. I think there was also a controversy about Vaush filming protestors who were asking him not to put them on camera? It just made him look like an rear end in a top hat because these days, filming leftist protestors can be dangerous.

Avatar (2009) was meh. The special effects hold up better than the comic book dreck they churn out these days, but the characters - especially the villains - are completely one-dimensional. Aside from the special effects I don't get the overwhelming praise for the movie.

Thinking that you need to respond to bad-faith "the left doesn't want to debate!" whining seems pretty lib-brained to me, but to be fair I don't know anything about Haz.

I liked the guests on the latest Chapo but most of the stuff they were reading was pretty boring. Even the "podcast bro" article didn't quite get the reaction I was expecting.

Wolff has a certain sarcastic way of articulating his point that I really love. I don't think it's acting; he's just as fed up with capitalism as we are. That's a reason why he's one of the best.

I've always enjoyed/looked forward to Matt's legendary rants on politics and culture and my politics have been influenced quite a bit by them. I hope he pulls through and is back to his usual ranting self soon. poo poo's scary because Matt's only a couple of years older than me.

HashtagGirlboss posted:Sure. But it’s like looking at traffic fatalities and never going anywhere again. Nobody cares and nothing you do will make them care and at some point you’re just working yourself up into a frenzy over a force of nature that’s so far outside your ability to control that so it goes. That's pretty much exactly how I feel about politics in general.

Chapo has yet to do a Movie Mindset on a film that I've either seen or particularly care about. If they did one on say...Network, I'd listen to that episode in an instant. I'm actually surprised they haven't done one on Network considering how eerily prescient that movie turned out to be.

Wraith of J.O.I. posted:let this happen god PLEASE Finkelstein is a treasure, and I've really enjoyed watching all of his recent videos tearing into Zionist bullshit. But I'm inclined to say that such a debate wouldn't serve anyone; it would give undeserved attention to WAP boy and as vicious as Finkelstein can be, he'd never get a word in edgewise as the little rat would be gish galloping the gently caress out of the whole thing.

All I know about Destiny is that he's an annoying Youtube debate bro whose videos (unclicked) occasionally pop up in my feed. Finkelstein would have doubtlessly mopped the floor with him; no wonder Destiny backed out. e: I put Destiny in the same general category as Vaush - annoying ""leftist"" who is everywhere on Youtube but whom actual, more credible leftists actively despise and distrust.

Ytlaya posted:I would wager that there's not really any consistent theme to "what politics the zoomers have," and that whatever they believe right now isn't any more predictive of what they'll believe in 10 years than what millennials believed when we were 20 or whatever. Eh. When I was 20, I was anti war and extremely skeptical of the "Global War on Terror". Hated the Patriot Act and was never for the Iraq War, even when most of the "adults in the room" of 2003 were for it. At 40, I'm still anti war and extremely skeptical of the Ukraine war and the saber rattling we've been doing with China. Despise the reauthorization of Section 702 and was against Israel's genocidal actions in Gaza from the beginning, even when most of the "adults in the room" of 2023 were for it. The main differences between now and twenty years ago are that I'm older, much more cynical, and much more left wing (definitely not the DnD style VBNMW type I was in my young adulthood). I had the benefit of a relatively stable and happy '90s childhood, though, so god only knows what commies Zoomers will be when they're our age.

Ytlaya posted:That doesn't really contradict my point? Not only is there still a pretty big difference between your earlier and current beliefs, but "a non-zero number of people not changing their beliefs" wouldn't contradict with the idea that many/most people will evolve their perspective as they get older and experience different things. And the point I was replying to (that zoomers will be less cynical/ironic) was particularly silly, given that millennials their age included earnest Obama supporters. It's hard to get much more naive and un-cynical than that. Yeah, those are fair points. I just wonder if Zoomers have that much to lose given deteriorating economic conditions. Maybe a lot of Columbia students already have their futures secured; I don't even know.
