HOLY SHIT I LOVE THIS EPISODE AND I WILL BE LISTENING TO THIS NEW FUCKING PODCAST. I marched against the Iraq War in 8TH FUCKING GRADE!!! I had to listen to my fucking teachers talk about how wonderful it was that we were "liberating" Iraq and how these people didn't know how to live democratically. One even thought we should promptly invade North Korea. It was insane. It was literally fucking insane, the nation went utterly berserk and it was like living in a soulless desert from 2003 to about 2008 when the elections finally came...
Bush, and especially the Iraq War, was radicalizing for so many, or at least a political awakening. It's what got me into politics when I was younger, and this election season has finally pushed me out of the Democratic cabin entirely. I can't go back in, having seen what I've seen. A better future was so close, within our grasp, and it was stolen away.
Yeah just being a child and watching by he deranged response by the "adults" made me one incredibly blackpilled child lol. At least this shitty country is (slowly) dying.
Appreciate you guys clarifying things for the younger people in regards to the War in Iraq. It seems like just yesterday for me, but I am in my 50's.....Anyway, good work!
@@daysjours It's not that us fighting it is in itself forgotten, it's the WHY. I was six years old when we invaded Iraq and it's only through Chapo eps and further research (AKA binging Generation Kill and reading exactly one other book) that I even understood the effects of our initial foray into the Middle East.
Yeah that is awful. The silver lining is that if the Democratic Party becomes genuinely obsolete, then it cannot absorb the energies that might otherwise be pushed into a genuine revolutionary movement. If the entire government is racist neoliberals and racist national socialists, then it is easier to see who our enemies are.
I wasn't sure about the "absorbing revolutionary energy" thing, and then we had Obama... now I have to admit. It seems like that's a real danger with mild pieces of shit who pretend to be "on your side".
You are right. You wait and see Donald Trump’s criminal negligence in regards to corona virus - he abolished the NSC dept for the management of pandemics and refused to listen to dire warnings because he was all concerned with re election - will be forgotten by most in a matter of weeks. South Korea successfully contained the virus and was conducting 10 thousand tests a day at a time when we were only testing literally less than 100 a week. Millions will die as a result of Trumps inaction but Trump will be acclaimed or at the minimum not blamed.
Keep fighting the fight guys. I sometimes think the American electorate deserves all the things the oligarchy is about to do to it, bit it makes me feel better that people are fighting this to their last breath.
Lots of criticisms Chapo level at the establishment are things I indeed heard for years from liberal Resistance podcasters and bloggers. Particularly the media pundits who were bloodily wrong about Iraq and still get promoted, the corporate media bias and horribleness, and Democratic inaction and cowardace. And yet, those same liberals, as social democracy and progressive values threatened to rise up and break out of the containment cell, dove hardcore against Bernie on both '16 and '20. Hardcore into "party unity" shit, hardcore into Blue No Matter Who, even up to Mini Mike Bloomberg, who's literally Worse Trump. The very people who screamed the ONLY thing that mattered was Defeat Cheeto Benito formed a process that found one of the worst possible candidates to run against him, now twice in a row, and don't want you to question that. This "civility" shit? This "bipartisan" shit? It's all got common roots, and the roots are selling you out to Republicans. It no longer matters if the Democrats started out as controlled opposition, or became it through sheer malfeasance, they are acting in that role regardless. For our purposes, that's all we need to know. Fuck them.
Bernie isn't the movement, he was only the beginning anyhow. We're going to keep on, but denying simple reality doesn't help either. The Democratic Party stitched us up good this time. But the fight goes on.
I have always said if Trump gets us Medicare for All I would campaign for his reelection. I honestly never thought I would have to make good on that promise....
It is actively insane, isn't it? I mean, he can hide against Bernie because the party is all for him, but the general election isn't going to give him such accommodation. The government is owned by the other guy. If just Not Being Trump was enough, he'd have never got in.
I tried to fucking help you people.-Bernie2020
We couldn't have asked for a better candidate or a worse opponent, and the consent has still been manufactured against us. Lenin was right.
Yep. How old is Manufacturing Consent, and yet, bam. Blindsided. I personally didn't think they were going to be able to just do it this hard.

And were still bombing civilians and Iraqi state agents and officials. These are supposedly our allies now...

It is amazing that a war that continues to set the Middle East on fire would be considered forgotten history.

@@JoeSixThreeOh Good for you! You could teach me a thing or two I am sure! History is our link to our future. Please be safe
Matt’s premonition at 15:45 was goddamn harrowing.

I cannot believe this all happened earlier this year
"I KNOW the Mucinex Monster I'm the guy trying to lock him up!" before stammering off is dead-on Biden lol
Will had a clothespin on his nose for the duration of the episode
Vote blue no matter who they screw?
not enough people bother to try to know what's going on, let alone remember history.

We couldn't possibly deserve it more
Bless you brave souls.

Vote your conscience. No more negotiating. We don't "owe" them our vote. They have to earn it.
Blow your nose Will!
If Orwell wrote a farce....& so on, & so on.
Is this the ep where Matt talks about the autobots being the Sunni states and the deceptions being the shiite? Anyone know the ep?
Great Backwall Of China.
My guess is Biden had a Johnny Depp earpiece with someone feeding him his lines
Hope is Die Hard with a Vengeance.
I'm astonished that they just... gave up so easily :( Even with the circumstances, I wasn't expecting this. what happened to "solidarity forever"...
Bernie isn't the movement, he was only the beginning anyhow. We're going to keep on, but denying simple reality doesn't help either. The Democratic Party stitched us up good this time. But the fight goes on.
"Solidarity Forever" is something that is printed on cheap T-Shirt. Ousting the Rat Fucks is what puts you in Harm's Way. Choose...
Why the reupload?
I have some of those playing cards in my playing card collection. It's one of my favorites because it's so fucking weird.
Hell yeah
The DNC, CNN & MSNBC are going to give us Trump.
Uh....ain't that their job?
Biden picking Hillary as VP? :)
good
I have always said if Trump gets us Medicare for All I would campaign for his reelection.
I honestly never thought I would have to make good on that promise....
@2:05 I think you mean "Pass the record player"
Listening to this with Sovietwave is praxis.
Got an anti CRT ad on the preroll, fucking felt transported to 7 months ago
To April?
16:28 Wigs & Pigs 💯 good call
😷✊🏼🌹❤✌
No. 100
First, they locked up the democratic nomination, then they suddenly saw the pandemic, and screamed, ‘FREEZE!!’
With ALL this, I still can't wrap my mind around the idea of creepy Uncle Joe is going to get the Democratic nomination.
