While I don’t think Cenk should be having dialogues with MAGAs given that they are lying sacks of shit, these guys are in SUPER DENIAL about Harris’ campaign. “Hey, they put Walz on her ticket!” You’ve got to be kidding me! YOU KNOW until Harris dies, that’s effectively a ceremonial role. The rationalizations coming from the Left are SO freaking childish! “It was a social media black op!” Please…STOP. It was the Economy, Stupid! Most…MOST…people are fed up with being economically terrorized, being one paycheck away from financial ruin, and they offered NO policies to improve job security -WHEN THEY COULD HAVE!
Hey @patrie, your take is really thoughtful—would you mind summarizing the key points of the video? I’m not about to subscribe or give any money to the Vanguard, but your perspective on it seems spot-on and helpful!
The video is accessible on youtube, no subscription required.
I think what many people miss on Cenk’s recent actions is that he appears to be more forgiving of MAGA viewpoints then Dem Cult ones. But something we all have to appreciate: Cenk has been fighting for -what?- 20 years to get the Dem Party to change. They showed a total tinear in the Harris election, giving jack shit working class policy proposals in the runup to Election Day.
So: he simply snapped and has gone to some extreme positions at the moment. [Big Fucking Mistake #1; dialoging with one-percenters who really don’t drink the MAGA Kool Aid -what will that get you?!] I think Cenk will walk back some of his viewpoints, and accept that change will NOT come from either the Dem or Repub Party -it HAS to come from an Independent effort, and if that is not organized by Sanders -sorry, the American working class is fucked. Which means America will be fucked, because it can’t make much of anything -it’s all outsourced.
That center cannot hold. Even Bannon sincerely gets that, in spite of having been in the trenches with one-percenters at Goldman Sachs and elsewhere.
Of course, one-percenters won’t care about the irrelevance of America; with their winnings, they will just boogie off to another place that has a high standard of living, and rinse+repeat their capital blackhole there, wrecking the standards of living for that next country; accelerating plastic and carbon pollution, turning rules of law into kangaroo courts -you name it!
Surprise Surprise!!! The Vanguard put out ANOTHER YouTube Video saying Cenk& Ana and TYT are now “Right Wing Traitors”. Sorry, but I refuse to give them the clicks their CLICKBAIT wants.
It’s just desperation on their part to remain relevant; their lack of strategy to achieve a more just society shows, and they are now irrelevant.
A much more productive discussion was held by Cenk with BTC:
By the way: hated the recent debate between Francesca Fiorentini and Cenk; they were cutting each other off. Nothing like the BTC interview. If Cenk is going to have a discussion with somebody that sets him off, or vice versa, we need a moderator who will step in to cut the mics…
It all boils down to the “Left” is pissed that tRump won AGAIN and are looking for someone to blame. Because Cenk decided NOT to sit on his ass and do nothing like the rest of the “Leftist-sphere” and is trying to actually DO SOMETHING; he is the one all that anger is going towards. Granted, if he was sitting on his hands and doing like them; all that anger would be directed at the Right including all the Centrists that voted for tRump.
Good luck identifying who voted for him; because many were at the end of their economic rope, they played the “Chaos Lottery” with Trump. I suspect a lot of Trump voters did not like him personally.
And as he brazenly betrays more of his fake populist agenda, people will get more vocal about hating him. Bannon is shrewd to be attacking Musk and the Swami, and not turning on Trump; they’re a cult, but they’re not the Silicon Valley Tech Bro’ Cult! Once he shows to Trump that they have a losing agenda, Trump will capitulate, <joke>like he did with his stupendous “wall”…</joke>
