    He bought a millions-dollar house, for one

    He gins up people's anger to get clicks and thus money. He seems to say whatever he thinks will make his viewer base the most angry.

        You could have just edited instead of deleting the old one.

        Idk man, the stuff he goes on about isn't exactly what I'd get angry about reading posts here. For all the valid criticisms of AOC and "progressive" electoral politics, he spends way too much time attacking people who really shouldn't be priorities for attack, who really don't have much power relative to those who are really in charge. I don't believe he's a CIA plant, don't get me wrong, but he acts the way a CIA plant would.

          A CIA plant would be pushing for regime change in Syria, Venezuela, Bolivia, etc. JD is generally anti-imperialist.

            Like I said, I don't actually believe he's a CIA plant, although I don't think the CIA would be dumb enough to try to hoodwink leftists with someone who supports regime change.

            Anti-imperialism shouldn't be the only bar

              trying to hoodwink leftists with someone who supports regime change is exactly what the CIA would do, and does

                What "leftist" media figures explicitly support regime change?

                      Nomiki Konst. Between her weird-ass "training" in Libya, sudden relevance out of nowhere, and consistent russiagate/pro-NATO takes, wouldn't be surprised if she was an op. Also, what the CIA wouldn't be stupid enough to do is try to appeal to leftists with a white male boomer.

                        I'll have to admit, I haven't seen this kind of take from Nomiki Konst, but if this is meant to imply that Sam Seder is an op by association, I have to vehemently disagree.

                        The second point is fair.

                  Nomiki konst supported regieme change in libya and is regularly on the majority report. Like the rest of that crews brand of soft left imperialism.
