Trump connects with the working class? This author has never heard of the Polish Brigade. Of course these people fall for the throw away lines, fake populism of Trump.

Excellent episode - the interview with Alexander Zaitchik was superb. Fascinating and genuinely insightful. Please more content like this!

No way, that's way too nuanced of a position. No dichotomies. Only logical extremes allowed. I would have gotten away with it too if it weren't for those meddling hairsplitters.

Do you think one can be against French's abhorrent, poisonous, and essentially dangerous views while simultaneously opposing the terrorization of him and his family?

Uh also the Zaitchik interview was fantastic. Glad to hear you guys floating your theories on Trump appeal against an updated perspective. Where Zaitchik's experience contradicted the assumption, I didn't know if y'all would just double down on your shit or update it. The show has a lot of internal conceptual reference and structure so I was legit worried y'all would go full morning zoo and brand it up but now Grey Wolf doubts obliterated bitch

French's experience with legitimately shitty vicious trolling is fundamentally no different than any other ridiculously framed sectional drawn at random from his tiny rolling window of conscious experience. He's a goldfish gaping through a convex bowl at the world. A big part of the show's appeal for me is the ongoing celebration of and ever-more-contextualized historical record of pundit owns. Of course they're pitiable human morons but more importantly they are pitiable human morons who work tirelessly to advance inhuman agendas for moronic reasons. There are worse things than being a family member of a shill being temporarily viciously trolled. It's a shame that his innocent kids were targeted but the current human consequences for millions of kids, at the hands of French's articulated platform, are far worse, so fuck him. I think it's equally funny that he's a cuckold-phobe literally famous for "don't email my wife" as that he pissed himself for days as a victim of extremist versions of himself. May he drown in his own feces.

yeah I didn't like this episode. no reason to make fun of someone and their family for getting harassed by Nazis. It's not right

It's from the ending credits of "The Running Man"

Now that he and everything he's ever stood for has been shown to be rotten to the core, he almost becomes sympathetic. For his family's sake, I hope the trolling stops. I also hope he never has any sort of presence in the body politic ever again.
