    I guess laughing feels good until Americans don’t show up to vote and then we get to keep living in Clown World because the clowns do show up.

    Doesn’t matter if he’s branded an imbecile. We already all know they’re all imbeciles. Apparently we can’t stop the imbeciles from running the show.

      so you go online to a platform that has less than 1000 active users an hour and complain about the corruption that you personally have no way of combatting.

              first, the definition. because you clearly can’t be bothered to look it up yourself.

              1000004041

              second, the pretentious bit of the comment.

              all of it

    It was one of those Jubilee videos.

    So, of course, the room laughed at Dave Rubin.

    They’re politically opposed to him, and he’s a lolcow MAGA moron.

      I fuckin’ hate Jubilee. They have no small hand in normalizing hatred of minorities and the rise of fascism.

        Major proponents of the ratchet effect too. They keep showcasing more and more extremism as if its normal. “Let’s put someone on a room of fascists and put it on TV as a totally normal discussion!” Ludicrous

        As an extremely casual viewer, what am I missing? I’ve seen like two videos and a few shorts.

        Is it because they platform assholes?’ I’d had that thought when looking at their channel but I’d also seen clips of them clowning on MAGA idiots.

        I’ve only see a few of the Jubilee videos. Which ones are normalizing hatred of minorities and the rise of fascism?

          they regularly host right wingers against many "leftists’ in an unfair setting. like 1 doc against dozens of antivaxxers. often call them woke. it also plays into toxic masculinity quite alot if its not directly political. one of the recent hosted CHARLIE kirk i believe before he got his neck procedure.

            It was a good faith question because I hadn’t heard any criticism of them before. I used your words just to be double sure I wasn’t strawmanning you because I could understand if that was a sensitive topic. If that link covers your criticisms then thank you for sharing it.

            Was the downvote necessary though?

            How could I have I could asked for your opinion without getting the downvote and accusatory response?

              I retracted my downvote when I read this. It’s the beauty of votes, they can reflect the changing of opinions.

                You’re certainly free to take that “guilty until proven innocent” approach. I have to say I almost gave up on conversing with you when I saw your response and instead just letting our thread die with your abrasive response. You may be unintentionally squelching good faith conversations people want to to have with you. If you’re okay with that result, I’d say your current path is likely serving you well.

                  I just don’t wanna do homework laid out by other people where I have to find specific things. Feels like sealioning.

            I’ve also seen a few, but the ones I saw were quite illuminating. Helped see firsthand how wild and warped and uninformed a lot of people’s info and views are.

        I haven’t seen too many. I feel like it’s a view into the general zeitgeist. Or at least the current state of the propaganda machine. I agree it perpetuates normalizing these views but it also shines a light on the currents traversing the stream.

    Yeah, me too. Can the independent write an article about me? I could also use tens of millions of dollars in Free marketing that I don’t deserve, but I’m not a billionaire. Is that a problem?

    I could also use some help with my rent and some groceries. Could they help me out with that?
