Where do chapo trap house and red scare fit into this matrix?

I've heard about half an episode each in friend's vehicles and didn't really hear much socialism but I figure that's how they get you. Pretty soon it's not my friend's car, it's our car.

Apparently red scare is kinda sus and reactionary but idk much about it bcs I've never listened to it myself, all I really know first hand is that the fans of it are completely insufferable

i gotta admit i liked the art posts on the subreddit haven't seen that kind of content replicated, never really listened to the pod itself though

Next thing you know we'll take your and your friend's toothbrush, too.

Both of those barely fit the 1st category. Most people here (me included) will have choice words about the hosts of either podcast, but let's leave it at them being clueless radlibs, if not worse.

In their current state, I wouldn't even consider them part of a "pipeline" (i guess that's what you meant by "that's how they get you"). True Anon is way more funny and interesting, and the people hosting it seem to have much more coherent politics.

FWIW after the early trump years cracked the facade of liberalism for me, chapo finished the job. Dunno if I'd be here without them.

Early trump chapo hit different though, then the Bernie campaign happened. Rn it's a funny comedy podcast about American politics with hosts a bit less clueless about the ills of capitalism than your average host, but I don't see them introducing anyone to anything else than "both parties fucking suck" as an idea.

True anon is my go to listen. Early trueanon focused on Epstein, but after year 1 it shifted to be more generally about a leftwing look of historical people and events.

And funny.

And this year has shifted in tone again. In a good way. It seems more focused on issues that are important to the left. Organizing, unions, human rights issues, international politics, etc.
