People liked AOC because she said she would fight for the needs of working people, and now she's explicitly wasting multiple days making excuses for why she doesn't have to.

Getting a vote that fails in 15 mins with a ton of D's voting against it and then the media dunking on M4A as so extreme that even many D's are against it, isn't a fight that you're looking for.

Or they just have way less power than people like Jimmy Dore thinks they do. AOC is clearly hated by the vast majority of the caucus. I also think they should vote against Pelosi just for the sake of voting against her but I don't think they are traitors and i'm going to say gently caress them the way Dore does.

Oh I normally skip most Chapo interviews. I haven't listened to the most recent Zizek , but I plan to because slobby white guys are the one type of guest that really fits with the dry boys.

I tried to listen to the Bad Faith with Ice Cube, but it was boring.

I can't remember a time they even challenged anyone or were adversarial during an interview. They are all just boring.

no it was really loving bad and awkward. matt's even talked about a few times on his cushvlogs and that's the reason they don't really get adversarial with guests or anything, it wasn't fun for anyone (not the hosts, not the guests, and not the listners) and if they aren't having fun then what's the point.

I listened to a 5 min clip of them arguing about Louis Farrakhan and Felix couldn't have been more right.

If you believe that the Republicans will sweep the midterms in 2022, then why do you want AOC to lay the groundwork for primary challenges now? If it's successful and we get a bunch of better Dem candidates in 2022, wouldn't that backfire spectacularly when they get trounced by Republicans in the general?

If D's get destroyed in 2022, most of the people who will lose are the rightmost people in the caucus. That is what happened in 2010 and 2014. Even if AOC and Justice Dems is replacing just poo poo D's in deep blue districts with slightly better people who would be new squad members, they would have more power in a smaller caucus. There is really no reason not to primary literally any member.

He deleted his account! The coward!

A podcaster tweeted a very long story about his daughter asking him to make her some food, but he was busy with a puzzle so he told her to make it herself. When she came back with a can of beans and asked how to open it, he refused to tell her. He then said nobody in the house could eat until she figured out how to use a can opener. And then spent six hours watching her fail to open the can. Even when she figured out how to use the opener correctly, apparently it was a lovely can opener and didn't puncture the can on the first go so it didn't work, he still refused to explain.

How old was the daughter?

That was him and Mark Ames writing fiction from the perspective of the vultures that descended on Russia in the early 90s. Libs pounced on it and decided to treat those words as a factual account of their time at the Exile.

They've specifically said "this is satire". There was even an article a couple of years ago where someone got in contact with the women working at the Exile at the time who all said "no they were fine to work with, it was clearly satire".

Believe me when I say that I'm not trying to be a dick about this, and I give no fucks about Matt Taibbi, but "Matt Taibbi and Mark Ames raped women when they were in Russia" is liberals being deliberately disingenuous and claiming that poorly dated satirical writings as a literal account of reality.

And you know, given that I'm English and lived through the Corbyn years, I'm very aware of libs being disingenuous about all kinds of shite they pretend to care about.

Yeah it's clear that stuff is satire but I was just saying that it seems like him being attacked over that has kind of pushed him overboard in the other direction where he's now always whining about cancel culture.

Taibbi's always had a careerist streak to him, and I think the latest round of canceling that ruined sales of his Eric Garner book and dogged his coverage of Russiagate finally made him realize that he will never be part of the elite media in-crowd. He's slipping into the dark-side of the intellectual dork-web as a result.

Meanwhile Ames and Dolan never gave a poo poo because they're comfortable with their lots as a poo poo-stirring outcasts. Maybe it's a California thing.

He also had a pretty good podcast with Alex Perrene (it was good mostly because of Perrene) that he had to end because of that whole controversy around those articles so he really did suffer professional harm that he clearly shouldn't have.

Listening to the part of the recent Chapo episode where they mentioned Anderson Cooper being an elitist piece of poo poo reminded me of one of the stranger liberal tendencies - normie liberals who aren't remotely well-off but are still elitist. So many working class liberals who also consume normie media and eat at normie restaurants, yet are still super elitist about stuff like Olive Garden or a certain subset of reality TV shows. It's like some sort of bizarre aspirational elitism. Like the liberal version of poor chuds who admire Trump.

Trump hates his hogs just as much as Anderson Cooper does.
