Most Democrats overlook that the blue-bubble influencers here—the left’s existing Joe Rogans—are openly critical of the Democratic Party establishment (Piker, TYT, Seder, Noah, Mehdi, Charlemagne, etc). The audience craves honesty and anti-system populism, not DNC branding.

Florida police used ICE to arrest nearly 100 sex workers, boasting about the number of immigrants caught. The "human trafficking sting" turned up no actual human trafficking, but in a perverse twist, ICE can now abduct and traffick said "victims" to who knows where, for who knows what.

The “Joe Rogan of the left” already exists, it’s Hasan, and the way the Democratic Party has reacted to him tells you all you need to know about the probable success of the “find a left wing Joe Rogan donors can stomach” project

If you don't want to be compared to the Gestapo, one neat trick is to not engage in a campaign of terror around the country wherein you kidnap people off the streets to slave dungeons in accommodation of an autocratic fascist and his nationalist movement's desire for racial purity.

Very sad to hear Rep. Connolly has passed. Also, Dems might be wise to consider empowering younger people and not clinging to power until the very end?

It's not "deporting" to send people from Myanmar & Vietnam (with no due process) to South Sudan (wrong CONTINENT, & an area dealing w/war, hunger, torture, disappearances, other violence.) It's kidnapping. It's trafficking. It's a crime against humanity that, in itself, merits a trip to the Hague.

this is why it’s impossible to create a “joe rogan of the left”. to have a joe rogan of the left, you’d need to embrace the bernie sanders type wing of the party. you will never pay a certain influencer enough money to convincingly sell people that the establishment democratic party is cool

I would suggest having a party that believes in something instead of trying to imitate the Right's astroturf ecosystem. A legion of tik tokers won't save you if they're pitching the same over-engineered focus grouped drek that your leaders are

These people are too stupid to realize liberal Joe Rogan can’t exist because liberalism doesn’t inspire anyone anymore and the person who could breakthrough to young men would be far too left leaning and vulgar to ever gain a democratic mega-donor’s approval

Genuinely wonder what part of life these people even enjoy. When you're dreaming of automating your child's birthday parties and vacation itineraries so you don't have to bother, what even are you living for? It's giving Patrick Bateman - there's an idea of a Ben Thompson, but he is simply not there

TIL that after the shooting death of CEO Brian Thompson UnitedHealthcare approved many life-saving medical procedures it has been holding out on because of sudden internal panic and public scrutiny. So, Luigi (innocent until proven guilty) probably saved more lives than he took.

Wild to me that this was swept under the rug. During the Uprising, Proud boys and a bunch of other white supremacists were stalking our city, lighting garbage cans on fire, driving vehicles with no plates. And was it ever investigated? Just friends of the cops, I guess.
