    This is precisely where the conservative faux populism falls apart. They can rant against elites and crony capitalists until the cows come home, but when someone takes direct action against an actual elite, “crony” capitalist, they betray themselves and their class allegiance.

      It's total false consciousness to say the baristas and college sessional instructors are the elites but the healthcare ceos and car dealership owners are totally fine

      Contrary to popular sentiment, Trump supporters are not a bunch of uneducated trade workers. Much of the voter base are petty bourgeois small business owners who see themselves in this CEO.

      More and more, I’m coming to believe that poaching working class conservatives will be more fruitful for the left than poaching liberals.

      It feels like a moment of potential in America right now. The re-election of Trump; the unashamed genocide by Biden; the refusal to help Americans with medical or education debt; the crumbling state of the country in general, from infrastructure to intangibles like social atomization. There has got to be some appetite for a more radical leftist alternative, just due to the conditions facing the American working class right now, regardless of political affiliation. It will be interesting to see how PSL performs in the next ten years.

      That would be one episode a week for forty years

      If we assume he's been going for ten, that's four fucking episodes a week

      Who the fuck thinks this guy has four plus hours of shit to say per week? These things have to be abysmal.

        you underestimate what a piece of shit he is I think, it takes a lot of episodes and dialogue to really show you all the ways in which this character is deeply flawed and vulgar
