just YESTERDAY duh.. wish I'd found that music sooner..was in hospital a week music would have been emotionally healing of the fears & frustration.

It's the ONLY thing that I really trust to get my information from. So many different Pods and Contributors. I can remember in the beginning when there was only 50-60 people in the Chat 🤣. @meidasjordy.bsky.social @meiselasb.bsky.social @bmeiselas.bsky.social gave HOPE again.

@meidastouch.com deserves every bit of the recognition they are getting. I have been listening for years and they are a ray of sunshine in these dark times.
Amazing, love to see truth take over lies and men who like to push their weight around like an ape beating their chest only to be defeated and shown they weren't as big as they thought they were, kind of like Tucker and Trump
I'm not at all surprised by this development. I believe most people seek the truth and a shared fact based reality upon which to debate solutions. The grass is green and the sky is blue. Facts 👏🏾 fucking 👏🏾 matter 👏🏾.
that corporate stooge Ruhle and her performative “journalism” 👎🏾👎🏾 F___ OFF with the “left-leaning” BS
news & journalists simply being SANE ➕ reporting plain TRUTH rather than “both sidesing” as to whether the sky IS BLUE…IS NOT “left-leaning”
The right always tries to hurt teachers, by taking away their jobs or stagnating their pay. They have made teachers the target for too long and when teachers started protesting MAGA the divide got bigger. I think even MAGA know they are rejects and ban together, the blind leading the blind.
this is a common misconception, and it only hurts our cause. there's many on the right who are well versed in both classical and renaissance thinkers, and use it to their advantage. we would do well to understand the guenons and evolas of the world to understand them and defeat them.
dunno, i had gotten into a lot of arguments on x before i abandoned that hellsite, and they know their political philosophy down to a t. from aristotle to spengler. makes me want to brush up on my gramsci.
A very small percentage of MAGA may be able to have that conversation but the vast majority can’t.
Critical thinking is not in their toolbox.
Their toolbox is too overloaded with red hats and weird flags.
A lot of far right Politicans do say "common sense". This election cycle it became the "parental rights" dogwhistle that said "I'll promise you the 1950s of Cherry Red Bel-Airs and Drive-Ins but secretly be actually delivering the bad parts of the 1850s."
They really do cover a lot of the core news issues and they reveal truths about details. I have never once listened to Joe Rogan and thought any of his information was new or even factual. I only heard bits that were posted to TikTok and could never get through his shit. MeidasTouch though, stellar!
it’s unthinkable that anyone would listen to Rogan, i remember a total dickhead at work was listening to him, and i knew immediately it must be dogshit.
Fuck ye! I’ve been with the boys from the beginning and I am a member.
If you are not subscribing please do. You will not regret it.
They bring the facts, the data and the proof,
They are pro democracy and don’t care where you come from.
I would be lost without them.
Congratulations to Ben and boys
America is waking up. Hopefully not before it is too late! Joe Rogan is/was a purveyor of untruths and conspiracy theories. Facts are the poison of the far right! Meidas is based on truth and the law of the land. Professionals that are truly "REAL" Patriots!
Right now, I'm praying to God Winston Churchill's comments about the U.S. are true, that we do the right thing...after doing every other damn wrong thing first. (I'm paraphrasing.)
Crazy thing is he's always said himself that people shouldn't to listen to what he says because he's an idiot, yet he's made a fortune having other idiots listen to what he says.
Exactly. Someone told me recently that he’s one of the only true journalists left and I LOLed so hard. Rogan doesn’t even consider himself a journalist. He does 0 research before, during, or after his show. He just talks. That’s not journalism.
There are a lot of ppl who disdain intelligence & intellectual curiosity. They'd rather hear someone confirm their wrong beliefs with simple bullshit than hear an expert talk about complexities & nuance.
I grew up in a family of them. They'd rant about something like the Spanish Inquisition...
Then, when corrected that no, it was not Christians being killed by Muslims, they'd get annoyed then smugly say, "Well, I don't know much about history." Logic was for hippie tree huggers.
Yep. I’ve met some unintelligent people who are meek and kind-hearted, but they’re few and far between. Most are loud-mouth braggarts who are devoid of self-awareness making them extremely dangerous. They should no longer be allowed to vote.😆 https://gandalf.fee.urv.cat/professors/AntonioQuesada/Curs1920/Cipolla_laws.pdf
I agree! He tries to make it make sense I guess. And no matter how indoctrinated you are none of it makes sense right now. Their "leaders" were exactly what the opposition tried to tell them. A lot of right wing media will lose viewers as they climb back under their rocks I assume🤷
There is irony in MSNBC reporting on this. Independent media is a major threat to corporate media. Do they realize that they (MSNBC) are part of the problem, along with all the other networks?
Stephanie Ruhle, just as fucking liable. Spewed her bullshit about the economy on @msnbc
“The stock market is down, Wall Street says no to Joe Biden, democrats don’t do shit for the rich!”
Fuck you Stephanie Ruhle I could barely stomach your fucking segments. COLD and a sellout #GreedIsADiseasee
YOU HELPED CREATE THIS FUCKING FIX IT! I don’t even bring Fox News into the equation because they’re not news. You guys were supposed to be news, but you guys came in with opinion. I don’t give a fuck about your opinion, I give a fuck about how I live.
Congrats MT. Thanks for the Canada content too. It's so weird to see an america centric outlet give a guy Charlie Angus the mic and let him go off. It's like seeing your favorite indie punk band randomly show up in some movie when you weren't expecting it
I've been listening to Ben, watching his videos for a couple yrs now. Love love love Ben. Ben is a lawyer, not some dummy. They're 3 actual brothers, not "bros". https://meidasnews.com/
Don't just watch the Podcast. Please don't just share on this forum. Tell your reps in DC what you think. Resist. It only takes a few minutes and best of all..it doesn’t cost any money.
We don’t need money in politics. We just need people to participate.
This is the best description. I've seen bits and pieces of his "both-sides-ism". He'll invite an absolute miscreant, say "but didn't you do this and that and was debunked." Said guest then goes into a crazy rant and he then replies with something like "yeah, those are good points!"
Well deserved MTN! 👏
I love their vibe. Their analysis is always evidence, fact and law based, and with democracy at the forefront. Way to go guys! 💥💫 🎉
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I would say that this characterization is a feature of most fascist dictatorships. Look at the German, Italian and Chilean fascist in the last century.
"Left" has been weaponized in the U.S. by our legacy media for years. Somehow, "left" is bad and they've been policing Dems to make sure they're not too "left" or not "moderate" enough.
Meanwhile, the MAGA is literally fascism, yet that's never been called too far "right" or "moderate" enough.
Rogan the worse because he uses his platform to prop up the worse people. Anyone remember when he called a group of African Americans gorillas or baboons? He is racist to the core.
I agree with everything but the "left leaning" part. They are a mouthpiece for establishment Democrats. I watch them regularly. They have been a great source for how the legal system works, including courts.
I’m not a bit surprised, I love their podcast! They have several on screen podcasts that are excellent, including at least one of the brothers! Much more useful and informative than arrogant Joe Rogan🤮
THE FACT THAT MSNBC IS STILL TALKING ABOUT THE GULF IS PROOF OF LIES BY OMISSION. THEY ARE COVERING THAT BULLSHIT AND AVOIDING TALKING ABOUT REAL DANGERS. THEY ONLY REPORT WHAT THEY ARE ALLOWED TO REPORT PER CORPORATE.
It pisses Trump and his cronies off to the point Meidas’s been sued by Trump, FOX discusses secretly how to stop them, they get cyberattacks, hacking attempts and the classic death threats/swatting. So they’re definitely a threat to the regime just like any other opposition news in a dictatorship
We are all searching for info that is intelligent, honest & stands for something ! I’m so pissed at msnbc, the last of them and they caved in like a deck of cards.
Joe sees something crazy on the InterWebs and feels that it merits equal thought to something credible, fact-based, peer reviewed, etc.
"Yeah, I know gravity exists most of the time - but let's hear from a guy who claims it's really magnets that hold us down"
Agreed. He loves to play both sides - giving equal weight to a lot of things that really do not need it so that his viewers follow along -'he's just asking questions that should be asked' type of BS.
The caliber of guests to stand for the other side of what he obviously believes & gives more time & consideration to (AKA dangerous fascist nutbags) went drastically downhill almost immediately. It's fringe, Christo-fascists versus unpublished, also fringe, online content making "academics."
It's the illusion of both sides when anyone with even a casual interaction with actual academia knows the quasi intellectuals of the other side is just a slightly different brand of Rogan's unhinged, conspiracy toting, grifters & personalities.
The challenge we have as critical thinkers - is that the Rogan style of delivering content is appealing to a growing group of mouth-breathing Luddites (mostly male....16-36) and they are not interested in broadening their horizons to find reality.
Two perfect summaries of Rogan, this meme, and the story, "Before Joe Rogan, every kid had a friend whose 27 year old brother lived in the basement in a room full of black light posters, jobless and stoned all day claiming the Mayans invented cell phones."
Why people (ever) cared what a mixed martial artist / mediocre comedian boggled my mind. It's like FB (dumped). It's a place for the uninformed to sow disinformation based on these folks own prejudices. They then stamp it as fact. If I want fiction, I'll listen to it from a professional author.
I guess ‘left leaning’ will send some democrats scurrying for the hills as they normally do. These guys are the real deal, they are pro democracy. I listen every day since I abandoned corporate media. Congrats to them.
If you enjoy this show, Cecil does another great podcast called Cognitive Dissonance which is more about general idiocy, misinfo, and the state of the planet.
I think it's funny...yes, Rogan was once those things, and now he's scum. Coincidentally, a guy I was interested in years back liked Rogan, and recently when I had contact with this guy, he'd become a jerk. Interesting...🤔
No hate on Spotify personally, they paid Brogan $100 million USD to exclusively do podcasts on Spotify. So far as I know they're still paying him. I'm not going back until they get rid of him.
Currently use Tidal. Music's better, pays artists more. Bit rough round the edges, a must for music lovers.
They did, I won't take that away from them - credit where it's due absolutely. We just got to get them to say fuck no to fascist disinfo pushers too. End of the day they only care about money tbh - if that gets hit then they'll do something.
Hey, Trump supporters. The GOP is going to cut Medicaid and Medicare benefits and give your employer a payroll tax break. YOU are going to pay the same amount into it but get less out of it after you retire. If your child or you are disabled, YOU will get less out of it immediately.
But wait, didn’t Rogan say we were all a bunch of pointy headed elitists who came across as “inauthentic” and would never connect with the common American?? (Checks notes) yeah, I’m paraphrasing but he said pretty much exactly that
I just wish that they had shown support for ex-colleague @jessicadenson07.bsky.social - when she was detailin massive interference and fraudulence around Election 2024. Still can't believe how many Dem "leaders" just shrugged that off -- rolled over -- and let this nightmare unfold --
People are catching on ..many maga had fought, their parents and grandparents fought to keep democracy alive.. maga in turn killed our democracy within a few months.. not sure this is what they thought would happen.. that said ..many maga esp GOP are now embracing concept of a dictatorship ..Rubio
Democracy got Hitler elected. But considering Trump is a fascist that cares nothing about Democratic systems, he has failed the social contract required to function in a democratic system. So; he needs to be removed, or we need to sharpen the guillotine. Does that answer your question?
Thanks for the shout out to Meidas Touch! They are a true beacon of trusted media, talking reality backed by decency and evidence for everything they say.
Please refer to them often.
You have given me reason to view MSNBC again. Other than the great Rachel Maddow.
Keep the media in America 🇺🇸
honest! 💯
I have watched Meidas for years!
I cut off COMCAST 3 years ago & support the best news organization in America! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
An Aussie with interest in USA politics, @meidastouch.com and the @dailybeanspod.bsky.social are my go-to for truth, no BS and with the latter a tonne of swearing 👍.
If and when MSNBC gets bought it would be in their best interest to gut the current format & repackage using them a MT delivery. Just pro democracy truth void of the latest outrage to get clicks. People are scared they r no longer interested in opinions & banter, they want more Michael Steele.
IMO allowing “news” media to constantly inundate people with disinformation has lead us to this. Twitter is a case in point. Musk says it is “freedom of speech” but allowing disinformation to run rampant has created a cesspool of lies that uninformed people swallow as gospel.
Yes...but so many truth tellers ARE entertaining too. They just don't get bankrolled by right-wing billionaires. See @stephaniemiller.bsky.social and @deanobeidallah.bsky.social
Unfortunately I think many will never come back. It’s going to take an overhaul of education in this country. We need to teach kids how to think not what to think and how to recognize propaganda. This will take at least a generation to undo.
sadly... the german people had to be decimated before they could come to their senses. i suspect that, at least, 77 million in this country will require the same level of "arousal".
No one should be implicitly acknowledging trump's presidency by going to the white house. We should all be trying to destroy trump. If we have to physically destroy the white house in the process, so be it.
The difference between Rogan and Midas is measured in parsecs. Rogan is a nonsense podcast that contradicts it self and platforms nonsense. Midas covers political stuff almost exclusively and is actually useful. These things are not the same the latter is clearly better than the former.

Thus rather on the right than the left. Not that it matters much these days.

And they can’t.
Priceless!
Critical thinking is not in their toolbox.

I'd say common sense and truth leaning if anything.

Meanwhile, you never, ever hear Rogan's podcast referred to as pro-fascist, which it is.
Notice that double-standard? Fascism: acceptable. Not fascist? "Leftist".
Meanwhile, the MAGA is literally fascism, yet that's never been called too far "right" or "moderate" enough.
Radical right: normal
Liberal: radical
"Yeah, I know gravity exists most of the time - but let's hear from a guy who claims it's really magnets that hold us down"
Oh well, I'm an idiot.
But you know what I meant to say.
they might not say it but that's what they mean.
They say what I am told they say. Right Jamie?
What? I'm wrong again.

Now that their benefactors got largely what they wanted, they're quickly fading into irrelevance.

Left leaning? Not especially, but compared to Trump, so's Atilla the Hun.
If I die I died free.
Look at Nazi Germany.
But then look at Germany in the decades after.
