I'm running for office on a platform of putting uygurs in re-education camps but the law only applies Cenk Uygur.

Careful, a liberal might take you seriously and write a screed about authoritarianismerinos

Feel pretty justified for never liking them

Economists having a hard time understanding why inflation seems to have stopped once all treats are priced $14.88 but the Maoists are vindicated because they understood that AmeriKKKa is a nation of treatlers

So the heel turn to just being flat out chuds is now complete?

Between chunk falling for fascist crime propaganda again and again and kasparovian getting increasingly angry at the existence of trans people and science, it was bound to complete eventually. I would even consider it sealed as early as this fall when they covered the aurora Colorado landlord fear mongering about gangs.

It was only a matter of time with Cenk in particular. He liked populism without looking into any theory and that tends to lead people down a far-right path with how heavily pushed that perspective is. That’s why a Bernie-Trump pipeline exists in the first place.

A Bernie-Trump ticket would be objectively funny

He could pitch Medicare by calling it trumpcare

Makes sense given their company's shitty name.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 13 hours ago

Always gotten a persistent ick from them over the name. Having an Armenian main presenter made it weird - like I didn’t know if it was a sign that it was just a name, or a sign that something was very very wrong.

I’m from and in Lebanon. The name didn’t immediately register as تركيا الفتاة (“Turkey the Young” - direct translation but not necessarily intuitively the same). Their legacy here is mostly Jamal Basha "السفاح", literally “The Butcher”. My understanding is that in Turkey they’re looked back on as more of a modernizing reform movement.

so apparently according to the natopedia dude is running the old "republicans are the real party of the people" patsoc grift

[–] [email protected] 11 points 12 hours ago

It's even funnier because they're just the so-called "progressives" of American politics.
