Atrocious Joe posted:I ended up listening to "It Could Happen Here" this week, which is a former Cracked writer trying to predict what a new US civil war would look like. he does this other pod called behind the bastards and they just did a 2 parter on assad. his co host is a lib feminist who wants america to get deeper into syria. she supported the US bombing last year and altho she's supposed to be a syria expert she didn't know what the mukhabarat was until midway through part 1 lol they both downplay the genocidal ideology of the "rebels", promote the MS paint journalism of bellingcat, and say obama "overthought" the situation whereas bush would have "at least gone in swinging" in 2011. they also say it's a shame iraq went badly because it scared obama away from invading syria. evans also claims the US provided minimal support to the "good" rebels, completely ignoring that altho it is true the US outsourced much of the arms and jihadi smuggling to regional allies, it's still one of the most expensive regime change efforts in CIA history by now. i have no idea how this man can describe himself as an "anarcho leftist". also i can't stand his smug voice and vocal fry.

Atrocious Joe posted:I finished this a few weeks ago and still think about how the guy who did it idolizes Ukrainian fascists. while ICHH is decent, i got the creeps from his references to ukraine and syria so i read up on him. you get a feel for it don't you. when i realised he's a self-described anarchist suddenly his takes made more sense. he does another podcast called behind the bastards and he did a 2 parter on assad. highlights: - he and the co-host (she describes herself as a feminist) tell the story of the syrian uprising and get almost everything wrong. - co-host is an expert on syria but didn't know what the mukhabarat was until midway through the first episode lol - she has nothing but praise for trump bombing the airfield last year because it means "they know we see them" - obama overthought the situation, and at least george bush would have "done something" - the US only gave the "moderate rebels" 3 dollars and a box of ammunition - it's a shame iraq "scared us off" from "helping in situations like that" - they conflate all the rebel groups with "the syrian people", so by default if you want to see the salafi psychos defeated you actually want all syrians genocided, and being against giving al qaeda air cover means you support "assadism" I'm sure you get the gist. i asked him on twitter what the moral difference was between a chemical or barrel bomb attack and what the US did to raqqa and he got really cunty with me and said "you are seriously comparing cruise missiles to barrel bombs?" i have no idea what he was trying to communicate there.

if you are an adult and you're trying to conflate people interested in the world of shadowy connections, intel agencies and trafficking to elites the epstein case has offered a glimpse of with being a 9/11 truther or a birther, you are a paedophile.

Cybernetic Vermin posted:shadowy connections, intel agencies and trafficking is literally what birthers were (and now in qanon form, are) on about. their central tentpole, that obama was illegitimate, is just as likely as there being anything to be known about epsteins death beyond his realization that he had absolutely no future and him being handed a chance to get out, by some peon rather than by the decision of a shadowy council of globalists. the great debunker has spoken

it could happen here was okay and BtB is occasionally interesting but robert evans is a massive succ and his "anarcho leftist" horse poo poo irritates the brain. also i'm always wary of syria obsessives who never pass up a photo op of them in a desert wearing weird designer shades.

gave "it could happen here" another go. knowing now who robert evans is i feel better equipped. while an entertaining work of speculative hysteria, his central thesis is a bust. he's also an extremely humourless guy, and i don't trust any of these "independent journalists" who all wind up snapping selfies in the syrian desert wearing flak jackets and 400 dollar ray bans, talking up humanitarian intervention and whatnot. there's a really hilarious bit where he describes beto and kamala as "democratic frontrunners" who are "hated by the far left". his voice annoys me too. gh0stpinballa has issued a correction as of 01:31 on Aug 27, 2019 |

MizPiz posted:Following up on the psyop Epstein podcast: them using the phrase "underage women" is a gigantic red flag for me. the network is raping children. they are not loving "teenage prostitutes", or "underage women". also the decision to frame this as a scandal along similar lines to #metoo is ridiculous, this isn't some predatory boss assaulting his secretary, it's a global network of slave trafficking protected at the highest levels of power for fucks sake. throwing out zeitgeist buzzwords like gender and patriarchy without interrogating what they mean in that context is dereliction of duty.

if im not mistaken the peshmerga are distinct from the ypg aren't they, so it's not quite accurate to say "the ypg" abandoned the yazidis. the 2 guests seem to be arguing that the ypg disarmed the assyrian/yazidi populace (it was the peshmerga) to allow isis into that territory, then fled, then came back once the yazidis were on the mountain, so the ypg would then look like heroes for rescuing them all? seems a bit conspiracist idk.

thought the kubrick episode was poo poo. i thought it was going to be full on epstein brain fun and instead all they do is go through each scene making variations of the same joke about plot holes and bad dialogue. only right at the end do they actually discuss anything vaguely spooky relating to epstein. what was the point.

# ¿ Sep 21, 2019 16:31 |

it's redundant anyway really because kill list and true detective s1 are explicitly about the ruling class using murder, child abuse and cult rituals for pleasure and bonding. hell true detective even has a crooked spiral as a code for peds. so the most likely explanation about ews is it's a kinda boring drama about nyc elites with a take it or leave it suggestion of paedophilia at the end.
