From the guest list, the show looked like it was created to have a space where left commentators of various sorts would come on and hash out ideological differences as the US left is in the wilderness post-Bernie. It would be interesting, I thought, to have a show where an ultra like Sean KB from The Antifada could explain Marxist theory on a panel with social democrats and have some kind of discussion.
It turns out that its basically just a radlib version of The Five from Fox News, where they just take turns kicking the tires on the days news.
Does anyone actually want a show like this? It seems like its trying to fill a market that doesn't exist - or maybe existed a few years ago and doesn't today. When I look around, I don't think to myself, "You know who has some understanding of the political struggle we face in this moment? This DSA-backed state legislator from NYC."
Listening to it was deeply unsettling. I don't recommend it.
Funny how every country that opposes US Imperialism is accused of genocide by US-controlled NGOs citing dubious "evidence". Wonder what that's all about 🤔
because the people who get in power and dont cooperate with the imperial core obviously arent usefull anymore. Are you going to defend Saddam just like Assad? Assad could have given enven tiny reforms but the corrupt syrian state tought it was too much and the poeple revolted and assad chose to kill all of them do yyou think he can stop now that he has killed hundreds of thousands just so he could keep his absolute rule
