Moore also wrote Watchmen which is basically "Superheroes are fascist bullshit: the comicbook"

I mean he was basically describing the power of art and media to shift peoples beliefs and perception but dressing it all up in a mystical tone. His description of advertising as a form of (extremely evil) magic makes this pretty clear.

Marianne is definitely a creature of the 60s New Left movement. With all of the positives and negatives that implies.

Shes not a complete ghoul or neoliberal shill but she will never cross that final threshold that will allow her to recognize capitalism for what it is.

My mom is the same way.

I hadn't seen the new episode drop, and I hadn't read the news, so over the weekend my wife texted me "Who's that airplane child molester guy?" and I did a double take.

Last night we were going to bed when she asked me "What's with the reptile alien thing being an anti-Semitic thing?" She doesn't even use Facebook. I don't know how she's this Online.

BBC world service did a story on Pepe this morning so maybe she caught it early or off an article they published

Grubstakers episode 51 with Matt talking about Epstein. It’s real good folks.

I just discovered Grubstakers with this episode and let me tell ya, its good as hell

The Musk and Notch ones were what I listened to next and unfortunately Notch isn't interesting enough to make a compelling podcast about but they had Adomian on for the Musk episode and he killed it

It’s so goddamn transparent that the Chapo crew is threatened by Warren’s embrace of Medicare for All because it threatens Bernie’s appeal.

All the bitching about Netroots embracing her because it allows them to think “they’re as left as Bernie” while they secretly hate all leftist policy is baseless. Plus the proposed alternative to dreaded ~technocratic solutions~ is just “traditional politics.” You know, the politics that led to a defeat in 2016.

I’m voting for Bernie in the NY primary for what it’s worth. I just want them to acknowledge that even if Warren isn’t the paragon of leftism they want, she’s taking up a huge share of the non-centrist/Biden Democratic electorate because she’s pushing for the same kinds of policy Sanders is, and not everything is a massive conspiracy against him.

I absolutely know people just like the guy in the article. Its tempting to believe its an astroturfed fake but the far more horrific reality is thag its equally likely they just picked some credulous old man who never grew out of being a teacher's pet and told him to write an article.

I buy the idea of Epstein being "fake" on some level but I dont buy the body double or the masonic ritual stuff.

The Epstein stuff is legitimately insane and harrowing but you gotta stay grounded or you just end up as a flat earth or reptilian guy.

People who weren't politically conscious at the time won't believe this, but the Bush years were much, much worse than what we're currently living through.

My dad is and was a full on Alex Jones 9/11 truther so I was actually pretty engaged at the time even if it was in one of the dumber ways that you could have been. What I remember from that time is every "normal" person turning into a braying psychopath who thought God was personally on their side and wanted to kick off the modern day crusades as revenge for 9/11. There was way WAY less dissent back then and religious fervor was the order of the day.

"While the Dissident Right evolved out of the chans, the Dirtbag Left grew more out of the stand-up comedy scene. Chapo-allied podcast Cum Town features New York comedians Nick Mullen and Stavros Halkias, while proto-Dirtbag Leftist podcast Last Podcast on the Left stars Ben Kissel, who spent years in the New York stand-up scene."

Adam Erasure lmao

The dirtbag left also partially grew out of of the chans with /leftypol/ (as well as SA) so this person either doesn't know what they're talking about or is deliberately ignoring it to craft a specific narrative
