Haven't watched majority report since Micheal died. Emma isn't exactly satan, but boy has it changed the politics on the show.
On a side note I replied to one of Jamie's tweets with a Stalin quote and she liked it, so there's that I guess.

it was literally her first official day today...
clearly has no idea what he's talking about and just wants to sound holier than thou or whatever
Saying that switching Micheal for Emma is going to change the poltical dynamic of the show is being holier than thou?
Correction, it will change the politics on the show. Micheal was well to the left of Sam, Emma is probably sligtly to the right. I also have a lot of respect for Sam's ability to bring different views onto the show and have a vaierty of opions. What I used to like about the show is that you had a social democrat who was more or less foreign policy agnositic, an anti-imperialist ML or at least very sympathetic to ML and an american style pro imerialism anarchist. That gave a pretty good cross section of the left. Now we have a smary social democrat, a more smary social democrat and an American stlye anarchist....I don't know if I can continue to watch this show.
Jamie is great! I've never really watched MR, but her podcast, the Antifada is great!
most of the clips i've seen are jamie and the dude who came back I forget his name they are both comrades, like they have more segments by themselves than before michael's passing. sam's still the same and I like him well enough. emma's fine, she had her warren phase but im sure she'll get better by being on mr.
I’m expecting that having Emma on it’s gonna feel like there’s two Sam’s, when at least when Michael was on he’d offer up different viewpoints. But we’ll see.
Her politics are similar, but probably to the right of Sam. Jamie said you should join us for our Capital reading group and she responded "Yeah, girl stuff like capitalist reading group." Are we belittling Capital on a leftist youtube show? I doubt Sam has read it either, but he wouldn't belittle it.
