So @cenkuygur made a video last night purporting to respond to me that's so unhinged he's trending and being attacked by his own viewers. *Amazingly*, he 100% ignored the main point that caused me to weigh in: they falsely accused a journalist of being "paid by the Russians":👇

Cenk can rant and rave and sweat and breath as heavily as he wants and it will never erase what he and @TheYoungTurks shamefully did. All his sweat cannot distract from the only issue that matters: they fabricated serious accusations against a journalist:

As for the new costume Cenk is donning -- stalwart defender of women -- remember that his own group, @justicedems, kicked him out for past misogyny, and @BernieSanders had to retract his endorsement for Cenk's Congressional run, when he came in like 18th place with 14 votes:

To the extent I had any other point beyond Cenk & Ana's fabrications about people working for Russians, it was exactly that: the cynical weaponization of sexual harassment and feminism to destroy critics. See for yourself the workplace they created to decide if they're genuine:

Anyway, that's the last I'm going to say about this. For anyone who saw Cenk's outburst and is interested in what I actually said -- and to see how Cenk made a whole video that completely ignored the primary critique of them -- you can see it here:

As I said, the only reason I weighed in on any of this is because those two tactics -- falsely but casually accusing people of being paid Russian agents and cynically weaponizing accusations of sexual misconduct -- are so common in liberal politics: as common as they are toxic.

More importantly: the above TYT videos were created by the pro-Bernie, leftist videographer @0rf, who is on the verge of being removed from YouTube thanks to the censorship regime urged by liberal journalists. They are destroying internet freedom. Read:
