I'm always amazed that the posters on here need people to be unequivocally good or unequivocally bad, and all the evidence of it must either be what is immediately happening at the present or a single out of context thing from years ago. Seeing from this thread that apparently we've gone back to pretending that the podcast is reactionary and anti-BLM (even though they covered the events and went to their local marches). Because of course it can't be at all complicated, they can't be pro-BLM while also siding with people like Taibbi on some issues, it must be the case that their BLM episodes never even existed and the podcast ignored the entire movement.
Some people have fully bought into that because 4chan Nazis hid their far right politics behind irony, then all irony must endorse the subject matter. Which always seemed so absurd, especially when you project onto people you are familiar with views which they've repeatedly mocked and have espoused very much the opposite.
