:yea:
I probably hadn't thought about that awful podcast in over a year. Went over to r/redscarepod out of curiosity, and this was there. I guess they've done a full reactionary heel turn, to literally no one's surprise.
Comments on this indicate it's real, and the commentators, as awful as fans of that podcast are, were dunking on her, too.
She's from the extended Chapoverse. Part of the group of Brooklyn podcasters from the 2014-2018 cultural moment. Felix Biderman of Chapo was roommates with Nick Mullen of cumtown when both pods started. Nick later became roommates with Dasha and/or Ana Keychain while they had their podcast Red Scare. Dasha dated Adam Friedland, also of cumtown, concurrently with both pods. Dasha was also friends with Bryce Belden of TrueAnon, when he was briefly in New York. Bryce being a friend and an early guest of Chapo as well.
Basically most of the dirtbag leftist podcasts are all one group of friends.
Interesting. I was unaware of how intermingled the "dirtbag" left is/was. I don't particuarly listen to any of the other mentioned shows. I don't engage with the extended "Chapoverse", I mostly use the podcast as a means to keep a beat on the street with cultural/internet leftie/left-adjecent stuff. What you described sounds messy and weird. I like drama as much as the next guy but only really drama of people I actually know.
do trueanon and the chapo boys still associate with redscare now that they've taken this weird reactionary turn
Not really, they sometimes make a few quips about them being bad
Might as well mention Alex Ptak and Jamie Peck and Briahna Joy Gray while we're at it. Chapo launched a dozen leftist podcasts of note, including Pod Damn America, The Antifada, and Bad Faith.
