turns out Tucker Carlson's account of the scary threatening protesters was total bullshit, contradicted by publicly available evidence from sources you'd expect to be friendly to Tucker

who's surprised? liberal writers and journalists, of course

non-violent resistance like sit-ins, blocking traffic is already painted by the media as being the 'bad' kind of protesting and the number of people who agree is depressing af

yep, the only kinds of protest the media sees as legitimate are extremely orderly marches kept in free speech zones, and even then like 60% of americans think its ok to kill protesters if theyre blocking traffic even in such a march and that number jumps to 90% if the march messes up their personal commute

i don't really get tracey's complaint? all the people he's whinging about did not take russia gate very seriously, but he's upset they did not take it as not seriously as he did? who even in the brooklyn media-sphere was a russia gate obsessive?


idk still loving the meltdown regardless

he just wants everyone in the world to kiss his feet and thank him for his brilliance in pointing out something that a lot of people had already realized.

every once in awhile someone comes into cspam and tries to pick a fight with everyone they see about something most of cspam already agreed on, like hillary being bad, bernie being good, or uhc being necessary, and it's kind of like that

i just don't get what the traceys, greaves, deboers, nagels, fangs etc. of the world are actually trying to do??? their ideal leftism seems to be one devoid of populist support, and they regard all leftist activism as performative work for cretinous simpletons. but at the same time they don't seem to have any connection to the working class, but instead have kind of an inverse belief that the american working class already has a robust economic class consciousness if only you could get all the identity politics out of leftism (usually as defined by kicking trans people to the curb). when pushed they usually say that self-criticism is the foundation of marxism but they seem to have extremely thin skin, no self awareness, and rarely if ever engage in self crit.

I've always thought that they were trying to turn leftism into a product. Something that will give the proles a way to rage without discomfiting or inconveniencing the established wealthy elites.

i don't know if that's it, because they accuse orgs like the DSA & and movements like antifa of doing exactly this. unless they see the DSA as marketing a competing product to whatever it is they're selling

I get the feeling Michael Tracey is getting a little defensive now because he's wasted a lot of his time following the Russia poo poo while other journalists have been able to raise their profiles without following all the details, cause no one left of MSNBC gives a poo poo about the details. He was imagining himself being walked down the street in a palanquin while all the peasants rushed to kiss his feet and it's not happening even when no collusion was found

oh my god you're right, he's bitter that he became just as obsessed about it as they were and he has nothing to show for it
