Matt Taibbi is asked by Sabby Sabs about his view on Israel and Gaza, and Taibbi repeatedly declines to give an answer, saying he doesn't like to comment on this because it's "complicated" and "I don't know anything about it".

The next post has the other half of the clip. Taibbi says "My job is to get stuff right, and not get stuff wrong" after being asked by Sabby Sabs again to say anything about Gaza, and admits it looks like he's "ducking" the question. He keeps saying he doesn't want to talk about the subject.

Every time Norman Finkelstein trends, usually for debating some moron (this time it's Destiny), he trends and people post clips of him dominating the debate.

People forget Finkelstein is racist and transphobic, and how he supports Russia invading Ukraine. He really doesn't like pronouns.

This is a thread compiling all of the bad takes from people (many on the left) downplaying the Jan. 6 insurrection that was part of Trump's plan to overturn the election. Image Aaron Maté of The Grayzone calls the insurrection a "very sloppy riot" and a "sloppy three-hour riot".

Glenn Greenwald rises to the defense of Elon Musk and Twitter/X against the ADL highlighting Musk's promotion of white nationalist accounts. Image Related post, feels like it's been a while since one of the Chapo guys said something shitty, but Felix decides to "both sides" the ADL correctly highlighting and criticizing Elon Musk promoting white nationalists. Image

Cornel West has switched from running for the People's Party nomination to running for the Green Party nomination for President.

Oh God I hope he doesn't pick Russell Brand as his running mate. Image His chances of winning the election before was 0%, but now that he's running on the Green Party, his chances of winning now are 0%.

A lot of people are mad at Krystal Ball for *checks notes* challenging Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on his decades of anti-vax bullshit. Jimmy Dore and Nick Cruse in particular are angry.

Of all the things to hate Krystal Ball for... Image Nick Cruse and the rest of RBN did an entire episode complaining about Krystal and Kyle's wedding, as if Marianne Williamson's affiliation with them will boost her Presidential chances. Their preview image didn't even include Shoe, the worst person there.

So Rumble, owned by far-right figure Chris Pavlovski and funded by far-right billionaire Peter Thiel, now owns Callin. Meaning that Aaron Maté, Katie Halper, Michael Tracey, David Sirota, Briahna Joy Gray, Ben Burgis, and Sabby Sabs now work for Peter Thiel. Image I posted about Callin before and I did get some things incorrect, and it's outdated, but those people I just listed are the people who are still making podcasts for Callin. A lot of the others have abandoned their shows, and Callin is a ghost town compared to what it was.

Good article about the "horseshoe theory" people saying positive things about RFK Jr. Mentioned/referenced are Jimmy Dore, Glenn Greenwald, Max Blumenthal, Aaron Maté, Briahna Joy Gray, and Krystal Ball. newrepublic.com/article/172253… Ryan Grim seems to think RFK Jr. is more electable against Trump than Biden is.

Four years ago, Glenn Greenwald was reporting on Bolsonaro. Now he whines about Twitch streamers like Hasan Piker.

Did you know that there are people on the left who are *gasp* millionaires? Image While I'm definitely not a fan of Hasan, he's clearly less loathsome compared to Glenn. Obviously he's a hypocrite for calling himself a leftist while in a SoCal mansion with expensive sports cars, but at least he doesn't suck up to evil billionaires like Glenn does.

Briahna Joy Gray retweeting Elon Musk replying to Glenn Greenwald, as a defense of Matt Taibbi. Jeez, even David Sirota and Ryan Grim's need to defend Taibbi didn't involve quoting Musk.

Aaron Rupar is now "Aaron the Video-Poster", which is a much clunkier nickname than the one Glenn Greenwald gave him, "Vox Video Dunce". He also criticizes Rupar for not winning awards, but really Glenn is just mad that Rupar posts clips of him and Tucker saying awful things. He says that Sam Sacks isn't a leftist, which if you've seen his work or his Twitter feed, you know that's fucking bullshit. Glenn is defining "leftist" by his own pet peeves.

Briahna Joy Gray declares that David Pakman's "part of the left" is dead because he's criticizing not-at-all-weird candidate Marianne Williamson. LOL, Glenn backs Gray and The Vanguard up too. They, and Kyle Kulinski, all believe Williamson's candidacy is totally serious and viable.

Jose Vega is a LaRouche cultist who makes videos where he yells at Squad members about Ukraine, and then Jimmy Dore and Briahna Joy Gray play those videos on his shows.

Diane Sare, who he's promoting, ran for NY Senate as the nominee for the LaRouche Party. Image Briahna Joy Gray fell for his act here:

If you're someone who wants to defend and believe Seymour Hersh based on his past reporting, just look at everything he reported since Abu Ghraib. In addition to saying Bin Laden wasn't behind 9/11 and that Seth Rich leaked info to Wikileaks, there's this: Image There's a great takedown of Hersh's Nord Stream story here: oalexanderdk.substack.com/p/blowing-hole…

Do you know who didn't say anything about Twitter throttling Ken Klippenstein's account after he criticized Teslas? His colleague at The Intercept, Lee Fang, and his former colleague, Glenn Greenwald. Lee Fang and Ken Klippenstein collaborated on that nothingburger Intercept story a few months ago. Lee Fang since reported on Musk's Twitter Files. Wonder if that's why Fang didn't mention the throttling? techdirt.com/2022/11/02/bul…

Matt Bruenig mocking Pelé, upon his death, as a "joke". He likes to do this with Black athletes. He did this with Bill Russell too.

The Worst Tweets Of 2022! At least for this account anyway! This thread compiles the worst posts made by our "left-wing" favorites for the year! Starting with my favorite, Matt Taibbi saying that being banned from social media is worse than unjust laws being passed. Michael Tracey talking about Black people in the south; Glenn Greenwald vouching for Alex Jones's apology; David Sirota explaining "shitliberalism"; Jimmy Dore claiming to have gotten Long COVID from the vaccine.

The massive winter storm that struck much of the US a few days ago caused David Sirota's flight to be cancelled. He's blaming Pete Buttigieg for the weather. Remember, when Buttigieg runs for President again, that he causes winter storms.

From October: Matt Christman tells Rania Khalek that both parties ultimately want a war with China, and that the only difference between them is that Democrats want to use NATO and the UN against China, and Republicans want to use Russia against China. Matt Christman says that January 6 most resembled "a riot after a Super Bowl".

These are the rewards you get when you sufficiently kiss Musk's ass. Image Let's go back to June 2020, when a fellow reporter at The Intercept called out Fang for his racist fixation on narratives of Black people and crime. Image

Um... this is awkward... Tara is a producer for Kim Iversen's show, which is moving to Rumble, which officially brings Tara into the Peter Thiel network.
