The right wing corporate money is very aggressive in supporting any content that attacks everything outside of their theocratic capitalist hegemony.

Republicans have tons of people on social media or podcasts with millions of followers like Lahren Bonigno Hodge Twins Cernovich Crowder Shapiro etc to spread misinformation.

I think they’ve done a better job at that and making being on the right the young edgy non PC side which is crazy considering what the republicans we’re about til Trump was the opposite of that.


I think this is the whole point of Crooked Media. Trying to create a ecosphere for Dem and Progressive thought.


:lol: They're there but you don't seem to like any of them. Are they too progressive for you?

Start here:



Seder is cool.

Very hard pass on Cristo Avalis, Rational National, Jimmy Dore, etc...

I prefer sources that don't spread lies like Cuomo being groomed to replace Biden or demonizing anyone who isn't Bernie 100% of the time.

I like news sources to give legitimate information. Call me old fashioned.


I like Sam Seder though.


So do I. And?

Does the GOP now get to go back to their old style or did Trump forever change them where it’s about a culture war and “owning libs”?

It seems as if guys like Cruz and Rubio who Trump **** on have taken on his personality thinking it would help their careers

Sam's my go to source. I'm not a Jimmy Dore fan. There's no issue with Cristos or David Doel. The issue is that you're not as progressive so their views aren't in line with yours. If you're unhappy with the Democratic Party, then what do you want to see happen? A consolidated move to the center (which is all the way over on the right after four decades on Republican rule)? There are only two ways to travel on this road, take a left or take a right.

media's too slow and scared to call PA. Inexcusable. Surprised no real people have pushed back from the Dem side.

They gotta do it.

The major network cowardice here is startling. The math is showing that you can call PA and NV now. There is no path back for Trump there.

It's like they are all trying to force Fox's hand, but Fox can't do it now either :lol:

Dems do have a ton of people on social media and podcasts the problem is they just attack other Dems. The incentive structure of social media is to generate outrage to get clicks and engagement. It only works for the right wing because they always point to some nebulous Democratic concept.

I think they are forcing Fox's hand lol. They want to get the video of Fox admitting their meal ticket lost and break that as news.

Tbh foxnews coverage aside from Tucker or Hannity hasn’t been terrible in terms of of counting votes

They gave Biden AZ on Tuesday.

OAN is the station that’s insane and literally a Trump cult station.

They ignored whenever Biden won a state and all their talking about now is voter fraud lol
