I want Matt to refine his criticism because right now as it stands his lack of experience with gaming itself makes his argument come off more like an old man's rant
Don't get me wrong though i can see the central point of his argument.

The first and only episode of Red Scare I listened to started with one of the hosts talking about her ongoing conversion to Judaism. I then turned the podcast off because I was expecting political content, not her talking about her religious experience.

It wasn't a real PC build if it didn't involve some blood & tears, so you've certainly earned your keep.

The only way Warren would win is if she quit being cagey about the Native American ancestry thing and went full-on into it. Go "explore her roots" for a couple months and come back after communing with nature and taking part in some rituals, etc. Some people would still roll their eyes at it, but talking professional "progressive" policy alongside claiming to have the wisdom of nature/ancestor spirits could be powerful enough to beat Trump.

But of course she's not going to and Marianne is going to be the spiritualist candidate.

Warren/Chakotay ticket when.

Jeffrey Epstein found unconscious in jail cell, say reports

Jeffrey Epstein, the financier facing charges of sex trafficking involving dozens of underage girls, was found unconscious in a Manhattan jail cell with injuries to his neck, US media reported late on Wednesday, citing unidentified sources.
Epstein was found by guards sprawled on the floor of cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center on Wednesday, media reported.

The billionaire financier was taken to hospital, the New York Post reported, but it was unclear where he was taken or what his condition was. It was not clear how he suffered his injuries.

Chapo for being on the right side politically but producing a podcast that's extremely low-effort and never researches anything or has any interesting insight.

Also, too much really dumb conspiracy content recently.
