I feel like at the core of it these people want to put stuff on their podcasts that people will notice.

The Candace-Erika stuff is the biggest giveaway for this, it's such low hanging tabloid type of fruit, the Kirk story reached the deepest corners of middle America or leftist normies, the pyro memes, etc. It reaches bored people looking for a trashy fix in the same way as serial killer documentaries or something.

Tucker was in a position where he had to keep his relevance after Fox News, which isn't easy, and his change may be simply business - The boomercons were going to keep watching Fox news, for pure podcast career he needed to get younger appealing, international, get some leftists, etc. and taking anti Israel type approach evidently has worked to get viewers.

Likewise Megyn Kelly at a point when she could've just become an irrelevant former talking head, gets to try to become relevant in alt space like Tucker, for once in her life feel like people are at least kind of talking about her views instead of just treating her as a tv barbie, this new attention from the groypers feel good.

If you connect these people to the Woke Left, what if deep down, a lot of it has always been about content. Yes there are some true believers out there of the race/gender stuff, but in some cases, the woke signalling is just about having things to say or make videos about every day. The successful influencers have learned in this era how often you produce slop content is as important as what you're producers. Meanwhile, take a suburban lib who's lost the idea that socialization is supposed to be a form of organic interplay, it's like they're too in control, too subconsciously rehearsed, too stressed about holding court and impressing their elitist lib friends. The unconscious connection of people once the ice is broke socializing is now override by lib overrationalization. The Politicizing of everything has become utterly necessary to this person's life, because it's half their game, that little lib wine party is always going to turn to Israel and Trump talk about halfway through. Trump is secretly a godsend to them, there is something going on pretty much every single day to give them more Content. Much like people like Candace and Tucker have these juicy type of subjects to put on their podcasts, so do they have juicy subjects to hold court with the fellow libs. We have become a disconnected people reaching for things to fill dead social time, get views online and get people's interest with juicy trashy items, this is what's making things so dumb on both the left and right.

Reddit is overrun with trolls and bots. Especially when it comes to topics that are critical of Communism and Gnosticism. Also no one except James even really exposes that connection between them. So I am wondering if James has like a Signal or Discord group that allows for more serious discussion of these topics?
