What I have learned: * Russia has already won the Ukraine war * Which NATO started * A lot of people in the West think that Ukraine should surrender * Also Ukraine was the world’s main provider of CSAM * Also Ukraine is exploited by the West but if they can unite with Russia then their economy and everything else will finally be alright It’s literally like a bizarro world and everyone is over there agreeing with it. I’m genuinely confused by, who even are these people (what is the mixture of Russian bots / Russian-aligned ordinary people / confused Westerners / some other explanation.)

I am genuinely confused by hexbear too

Is it a site for queer people or for beanis lovers?

    I first learned about Chapo Traphouse from my friend's anarchist blog that was complaining about it. It was immediately apparent that the comedy podcast was offering much stronger political analysis. I was already a marx enjoyer, so I was happy to find some related entertainment.

      CTH, for its faults, rarely has ever supported imperialist or chauvinist narratives. They have never jumped on the China/Russia/Iran/Hamas condemnation bandwagon that the rest of the squishy westoid left has. At least the 3 original dry boys. Virgil, Amber and guests definitely have a tendency towards chauvinism

        True. I sometimes found Amber's contributions to be interesting, but it's been a while.

        Cth is not currently in its golden age, and it's just a comedy podcast, but making jokes without the chauvinism and annoying my anarchist friend makes me smile a little bit.
