her patreon is "lets create a wiki to track nazis instead of leftists" where she decides who's a nazi

iirc, this is basically the first grift Candace Owens tried to pull: it was an "anti-bullying" website where leftists could DOXX people who bullied them online. People pointed out how stupid and backwards that was, essentially creating a pro-bullying website, and she responded by calling them trolls and trying to doxx them, so they (obviously) doxxed her, and she went silent for 6 months before emerging as the most repulsive shitstain on the alt-right and immediately going nuclear grift.

Great episode, Patrick Wyman is great and I'm honestly surprised he knew the Chapo crew that well, his piece about imperial warfare coming home was great

I think amber is being just a bit too pessimistic about the portland protesters but I get the broad sentiment of never overestimating our strength.

If they had power, they could exercise that power, instead of having to resort to protest. They should have some power, but they don't.

The most cost effective thing is to pay her juuuuust enough that she doesn't feel like she has to to get a real full time job and can devote all her time to tweeting

the unfun, most likely answer is the big funders are her parents or some rich friends she'd rather people not know about

I'm too old to see the US military's current sales pitch, but from the last episode it sounds like they're resorting to what used to be the Soldier of Fortune magazine aesthetic. No idealism, just the joy of sadistic violence.

The US empire is the new Rhodesia.

It's a bit tired to try to analogize US decline with Roman decline. The core/periphery argument doesn't make any sense once you think about it for more than a second.
