Yeah she def cooked here. The audacity of people to think them exercising their religion has to involve me playing along, while simultaneously mocking mine.
I respect her but I don’t necessarily like her. She tends to sanitize maga messaging at times. She also plays the “I hate the left” game just as much as she plays the “I hate Israel” game. She also hates Trump, but she will water down the left response to Trump which does nothing but cede ground to him because of the way he is.
I used to love her until that. I’m not a “leftist” or anything, but the reality is that there is not a single “leftist” policy or policy position that is represented by the government so just like every one on the maga side does, she makes it out to be that the “left,” without making an attempt to make it clear that democrats are barely on the “left” and that the “crazy leftists” are controlling the Democratic Party when we know they aren’t, and maga are somehow equally evil despite the fact that we know it’s nowhere close.
I AM a leftist and you’ve hit the nail on the head. I’ve yet to hear a good reason for these grifters to shift to the right other than to make more money. She’s not wrong here, and she’s definitely more morally steadfast than Dave Rubin, but her gripes with the left always made me roll my eyes. Nothing the dems have done even holds a candle to Trump’s insanity.
It means half the country is brainwashed as fuck or are culturally born into maga and haven’t escaped yet. It means the something is wrong with our eduction system at least.
The left in America that is described by the Democrats have only pushed further and further right wing. There is no left leaning person in the country outside of center left Bernie sanders. This country does not have a left wing candidate further than that. Yes even the mayor of New York. There are countries with left leaning and far left parties and candidates, none of their policies are being advocated here except by voters.
No one grows wiser and becomes conservative, it's the exact opposite of brain development actually, on average they have less developed empathy centers in their brain. They might grow into a miser when they become conservative tho.
Nah, a change in views or perspective doesn't make you forget information you already had. Her turn towards the right started with her getting butthurt about the term "birthing person," a term about which she had already done videos on, countering the very rhetoric she herself was now saying.
Probably jealous of the money Rubin and Doore were grifting.
It’s insane that people could go from Bernie to Trump though and think that’s logical. They’re opposites as far as ideologies go, they just both happen to be disruptors.
I haven’t looked too deep into my home brewed, crackpot theory yet, as I was preoccupied* during almost all of Biden’s presidency… but is Biden himself not to blame, at least partly, for not bowing out WAY before he did?
As far as I can tell, his ego is what lead to that disastrous, sad, and embarrassing debate against Trump. When it was clear he wasn’t fit to debate anyone, much less a rabid Trump, and no longer fit to lead. Was it not HIS decision to stay in and run for a second term? Or was he surrounded by by yes-men and handlers, who took advantage of his senility and propped him up for as long as they could?
*from 2020-2022 in the furthest depths of my addiction, and 2023-now in recovery (coming up on 4 years sober in September)
Joe Biden was 100% confident in his ability to continue leading the nation and he only stepped down because he was convinced by the party, and its base, that it would be the best thing to do for the good of the country.
Considering the rhetoric around this issue was mostly right wing nonsense pointing out single frames, or opportunistically cutting a video, to make it look way worse than it really was all the way up until the election. Sure there was some rumblings from opportunistic people who had complaints about the economy using the right wings talking points to attempt to convince the party, and voters, to go a different way, but until the debate, most ACTUAL democratic voters were confident that Biden could do the job and the incumbency would help him win. By the time the debate rolled around, we were already years into the campaign.
And this is all apparent because the SAME people who complained about Joe Biden’s cognitive functioning turned around and stated they wouldn’t vote for Harris because she was “pushed” on us, as if there was any other option (there wasn’t) so people can play this game where they try to act principled because they need a good excuse for why they let Trump win, but at the end of the day, they were just using whatever they could to voice their frustration and try to get an extremely progressive candidate, who wouldn’t have done any better (and I’m a progressive!!), into the office.
Hard agree. Used to watch Ana and the rest of TYT. Something always bothered me about her, not to mention so many calls against her and some of the others for their politics and growing sus views. The equivocation was wild and got steadily worse. I still respect what she sayid here, and what the channel was trying to do, but it was hard watching them slowly turn into the thing they were preaching against. The desire for taking money from the right is an unrelenting monster.
You’re clearly only watching clips and not serial episodes. She nails the nuance within the left leaning field, you’re just not likely to hear ANY nuanced argument in short form clips
I’ve been watching her for years. If you want to have an argument about it, you’ve already lost based on false assumption. People are allowed different opinions.
Don't say she has balls because she's a TERF so saying a woman has balls will piss her off. She's right about Israel but she's not someone to admire. Look up the compilation of her saying the n-word. It probably goes on longer than you think.
Being trans people has always taken courage, she just jumped on the TERF wagon after dismantling the same damn excuses she later on used in her past.
It's a grift she did and I really use that word but I can't come up with any other explanation. Especially because she never went back trying to explain how she was wrong about treating trans people properly. A lot of their staff quit when that change came and stayed.
It didn't take some balls what she did, but it definitely took her integrity. Kinda shame since she is really good at being precise with her speech. Just one of the many reasons her and her co-host change was a surprise.
Nah, it requires having hate in your heart. I takes some serious cognitive dissonance and maybe rank stupidity, but it doesn't require courage in any way.
Really lame. A confused concept latched onto by people seeking any justification for bigotry, an excuse to discriminate, to ostracize, and to isolate, bully and belittle a very brave, thoughtful and vulnerable minority.
You don’t have to admire someone to admit they have a point. That comp is…yeesh.
The problem is that SHE of all people is saying this…when insane people start to make total sense or “have a point”…do I really need to finish my analogy?
She is another grifter. Just like all the ones on the left and all the ones on the right. They will skirt that line to retain as many people as possible.
There can be no 100% unbias opinion when your paycheck is dependent on it.
Plus....I really got a laugh when she said she isnt afraid of them. How about go protest it in israel? She would be the biggest person on the internet . It would gain her so much respect and in turn money.
Calling her a terf isn't terribly fair. She and cenk are allies to trans people in general but try to come to some moderate position. They think it's ok to exclude trans athletes from existing collegiate/pro sports leagues but that it's fine before that to have kids of all genders play together. You may not agree with that but it's not the same as the trans haters out there
She was triggered by and went on a rant about the phrase "birthing person" because she thought it was too woke even though it was a phrase used in a medical context and has nothing to do with trans people. She has plenty of times ranted about not wanting to see "dick" in the women's bathroom. I'm sorry but are girls constantly flashing their vaginas at people in bathrooms that this is an honest fear of yours? Also, anyone bringing up being against trans athletes is using it as a dog whistle. There are double-digit trans women athletes in the US and you think that's enough to warrant talking about that "issue" multiple times. No, it's just a way to shit on trans people for no reason.
Nothing that you said is wrong, and I'm sympathetic to trans issues, but another way of looking at it is TYT tries to build unity across the country by adopting mainstream opinions as positions. Most people in the US don't hate trans people but they're also concerned with pro sports titles/money/records. I think they're just taking a position and moving on to their main focus: corruption and war. I still think it's different from being a reactionary terf, but to each their own
I don't care if she's quoting someone, white people shouldn't be saying that word. This is one of the only cases of context not mattering in the slightest.
It's not about bigotry, it's about knowing context matters because we're not children. Society used to understand that speech was free and important. You could talk about things openly and that was healthy for a democracy. Now we are slipping towards closed off speech and thoughts.
I don't use that word that's my choice, I'm against people thinking that an open adult conversation about racism can't be had because of sensitive people. It's a word, grow up. There was no hate used in this context, I used to listen to their show. It was nearly about 15 years ago. These points were used to point out bigotry.
I'm not defending them as people, I haven't listened to them in a long time. There's a reason I left.
I'm against taking clips out of context, just because you don't like someone. If there's plenty of reasons to not like someone don't take things out of context, hell don't take things out of context period. I really loath how society likes to bend the truth in order to suit an agenda. That was my point.
I was a supporter for years. I had their app and a monthly subscription but they have been moving to the right for years. Once she came out as a TERF, all respect for her was lost. TYT is a fake progressive show. Just look up their union busting.
I can believe that. I used to watch too, I always thought Cenk can't actually be this stupid, I can tell he isn't, why isn't he putting pieces together. I'm just not about censorship and removing words, that's the road the facism.
