"There wasn't a major power supplying the Afghans, they just had the will to fight" is the spiciest take especially in relation to Ukraine and his promotion of weapons shipments there

    damn color me surprised that a guy from the south, more militaristic than usual in america, can have culturally ingrained bad takes

    though hes probably not cia. the guy has felony convictions for getting fraudulent visas for illegal immigrants so they could get paid more reasonable wages

    also really not a fan of this guys videos, the meandering is lost on me

      I just hate anything that tries to be self-serious but is primarily riffing. Love stuff like citations needed, American prestige, and RWN because they're very content or history focused, they're self-serious but they take the content seriously. Love stuff like chapo, pod damn America and stuff because they're riffing, but they're really comedy first. Trying to be taken very seriously but just sort of making it up on the spot is just not particularly enjoyable. It's both less entertaining and less informative than either format, and at that point why bother.

      I also hate the way he does titles. It's impossible to fucking quote the guy even if you know exactly what topic he was talking about at the time he said the thing you want to quote.
