Cenk has a long and proud history of being a fuck stain. He also has a fairly low opinion of women in general. Like a lot of men, he gets a lot more progressive cred than he's due by all rights.

Exactly right, I mean, just because you might be, let's say, pro-choice doesn't mean you are pro-woman. I cannot stand that guy.

I'm much more inclined to appreciate his nephew Hasan Piker, if I'm being honest.

Really--does he have a channel?

I know he's on YouTube. He's worth checking out. Also, he is quite adorable. Lol

Nice--thanks for the recommendation!

They push 3rd party candidates that could kneecap Kamala’s chance of winning.

I don't always agree with Hasan, but he's much more likeable than his uncle cenk and I'm more aligned on opinions with him.

Hasan Piker? I haven't watched him in quite a while. Has he had a trump conversion? That would legit break my heart.

Same--they are the very interpretation of Liberal elites that MAGA claims we all are. They do not represent me or my ideals. So sad no one supported your presidential bid, Cenk--get over yourself.

To me they represent left wing extremism, the radical left, the kind Trump wants to deport.

That’s right! I completely forgot that Cenk was attempting to run for president, despite NOT having been hatched in the U.S. Just a minor detail - lol.

Speaking of Facebook, between my location, and the people on my friends list...I had to take a short break from it after I saw about the 400th profile pic as Donald Trump with a Stayfree JB welded to his head. I couldn't take it anymore. I got back on after Kamala spoke in Milwaukee. 😆

I haven't unsubbed yet, but I haven't been watching since Mid-June. I have long been a person who was concerned about Joe being able to win and have a successful 2nd term. I am beyond thrilled with Kamala. I have never been this excited about a candidate in my lifetime and I've been voting since 1996.

I wish they would just take the fucking win, but nope. They remind me of what my Dad would say to me when I was acting like a spoiled brat as a teenager, "you'd complain that your asshole hurt if you were shitting gold coins."

Kamala will move the ball down the field for this country. She's in the best position to do this under all circumstances. There will be BS lawsuits filed by the dipshiticans that will eat away time. There is the matter of transferring the war chest. This is not the election to ask for a Soda machine in the lunchroom at school. We need a winnable candidate we can move forward quickly, and we have it. I really wish they would focus on positive messaging

With a background of “you'd complain that your asshole hurt if you were shitting gold coins" the even more brilliant “just take the fucking win” follows perfectly.

Speaking of follows, YES to you.

In the meantime, I shall “focus on positive messaging.

I used to watch TYT for a different perspective, but that was a few years ago. When they started going after Joe Biden, I could see what was coming - they were trying to sway people towards third party candidates. I unsubscribed in disgust.

I liked how the young turks sounded rational when they had a pledge drive and then right back to their Bernie bro bullshit (Jimmy Dore being one of the dumbest).

When I found out that screaming leftist nazi Boi hassanabi was cenks nephew (and basically used cenk money to build up his screaming youtube presence) I was not surprised.

Schmendrick is a very good Yiddish word sometimes defined as "a stupid person or a little hapless jerk."

Definitely! In general, I think all the various populations of the British Isles demonstrate a remarkable mastery of the art of the insult...

TFG would never have survived in the UK, where it seems fair game to insult right back. His pathetic middle school nicknames would've got him laughed right out of the government, and he's such an easy target.

Oh indeed, here we claim to be freedom loving, and the right certainly hates wokeism and cancel culture, but they want to police the speech of the left and cry about being called Nazis... pure shame.
