The libs on the MR subreddit are insufferable. They worship Seder's tepid SocDem ideology and wannabe John Stewart era Daily Show format. Really miss Michael, he gave the show some ideological coherence but now it just feels rudderless. Especially with Emma and Nomiki, it's just an echo chamber. Sam's concept of change is taking over the Dem Party over a few decades. That's not going to cut it.
Seder turned into a scolding lib anytime anyone refused to vote for Biden, just as bad as anyone on CNN or MSNBC.
Yep. The loss of Michael Brooks exposed the soullessness of Sam's show. He is a decent debater, but it makes him think he's this genius and everyone who disagrees is literally dumb.
“Look, tankie either refers to people who were pro-Soviet/Stalinist in the most strict sense of the term or people who are "pro-non western countries like Russia and China" in the more current, less strict sense of the term.
Using one interpretation, Tankies support right wing oligarchs who assassinate political opponents, invade their neighbors in wars of aggression, (in China's case) are currently engaged in genocide, and put gay people in prison.
Using the other interpretation, Tankies support a totalitarian regime that killed millions of it's own people, invaded their neighbors in wars of aggression, helped the Nazis conquer Poland, put political opponents into gulags, and also put gay people in prison.
If you dont like these classifications, then don't be a tankie(either one).
It is possible to dislike capitalism, American foreign policy, and colonialism while also not being a fan of the Soviet Union or Vladimir Putin. I do it every day.“
Seder seems to be of the same mind as Steven Pinker that basically things will continue to get "better" in some sense. He said something about how millenials will live longer than boomers/GenX, I've never seen the rest of the crew disagree with him faster. But also it explains why he is so okay with gradual change, he doesn't believe there is a hard time limit on when the left could accrue power. It makes me think he greatly underestimates what the consequences of global climate change will be, because as far as I'm concerned if socialists don't get significant support within the next few decades, climate refugees and resource scarcity will be the wedge issues that fascists will use to take power.

Since Bernie lost it’s become breadtube drama central. Endless post about jimmy dore and BJG.
Not really but okay.
I’m talking about the subreddit
Oh shit my bad, sorry.
Michaels loss really sucked the life out of the the show. I barely see Jamie on anymore except for the part she’s in with Emma and Matt Binder.
Yeah, she got cut back to Mondays and Thursdays. I'm tempted to begin watching only on those days.
Thursday fun half is better than pretty much the rest of the show anyway.
Can confirm.
