that grossman episode was great. i remember him from the jack thompson "video games cause murder" poo poo and i assumed he was some weird moral majority weirdo who had weird pacifist views. NOPE. hell grossman sounds like a loving baddie from a video game. also i think he hates them because in his broken mind, he sees them are "competition" to his grift. like i never knew how loving psychotic that dude was.



also a fun non horror lowkey behind the bastards would be jack thompson. the moral crusader because he was werid rear end in a top hat who got disbarred for really hosed up behavior and sending hardcore porn to judges and making fun of a lawyer who died saving his son.

Honestly I'd like to see a couple of episodes about the Columbine shooters.

Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold: The alcoholic suicidal Nazis who took mass shootings mainstream

Might I suggest something re. those who lionize Elliot Rodgers, now that there was the recent thing in Canada that was officially recognised as incel violence or something like that?

Or, unless it's too soul-crushing to bear, those who lionize Dylan Roof?

Dyaln Roof himself might make a good episode, his full name is Dylan Storm Roof, and his mom named him after some soap opera character.

The first half of the Elon Musk episode is very good I’m excited to see how off the rails part two goes.

His childhood is way more hosed up than I really could’ve imagined and it’s clear Robert really feels bad for the kid.

It made me realize "ohhhh, people keep comparing Musk to Tony Stark because they're both gigantic assholes who don't feel empathy or human emotions because they're sociopaths!"

The problem with JWohl isn't JWohl, it's the weird black hole of literally zero consequences that JWohl exudes like a hosed up X-Men power. I literally cannot concieve of someone pulling the stunts Jacob has pulled and literally never being disciplined or facing any consequences whatsoever.

Like the punishment for scamming people on the stock market is... being told you can't do that anymore?

Accusing Mueller of Rape and bribing a woman to accuse him of rape gets you... nothing from anyone anywhere? Like even the FBI, where Mueller works, did anything about it?

Like Donald Trump i understand as being immune because he's the POTUS or whatever, but how is JWohl just so soaked in fish oil that nothing sticks to him?

I think it's because literally no one in power takes him seriously and just ignores him.

Has he done a deep dive into Incels and their connections to Nazis? That would be a really interesting episode series (co-hosted by Sofya Alexandria)

Nah, most shooters are pretty dull in terms of backstories.

"RAAAHHH I HATE THE BLACKS/GAYS/WOMEN *BLAM*BLAM*BLAM*"

Harris and Klebold are only interesting because of the stupidity and how people emulate them for the wrong reason.

Honestly, you want a good Bastard, do a episode on Henry Ford, the union busting anti-Semite who was loved by Hitler.

I'm current on it, and am shocked/appalled at the content. How clearly all the facts seem to point the same conclusion. How little of it I knew beforehand.

What is it that turned you off?

Maybe it was just the slow burn by starting at the beginning of civilization and how ACAB for more then 2000 years, and repeating on that same theme non stop.

It's like that guy at college who has to constantly remind you that every part of American culture is connected to something violent and racist AND ITS STILL GOING ON but you just want to do your Calculus homework.

Not to mention the Slenderman stabbings.

Actually speaking of 4chan wasn't there a mass shooter who posted on SA, too?

gently caress I forgot about Slenderman

Doesn't that put our body count into the double digits?

You know, I don't think so!

Remind me again how any of this poo poo is legal? Unless a federal crime is being committed the feds can't intervene, and the last time I checked protesting stuff wasn't a violation of the federal code.

they've been graffiitting a federal courthouse



that's really about it

Isn't that a really obscure violation, like how we're not supposed to ogle the Statue of Liberty or pull our pants down in front of the Liberty Bell's crack?

nah, graffiti is at least a general nuisance violation in a lot of places so it's not exactly obscure

it's more a combination of fascistic petty spiteful overkill that I dont have a good term for

So pulling your pants down in front of the Liberty Bell is not federally illegal?

Because I'm going to Philadelphia next year and I have plans.

Am I nuts, or did Robert kinda blame the Columbine massacre on the campus police not stopping Harris and Klebold?

And then criticizes the presence of police on school campuses?
