Someone needs to do a mashup of these folks with their Antifa/SJW/Russiagate/TDS counterparts and see if it is possible to even distinguish between them. The second video below is an example.
Kyle breaks down the data which shows that Biden is more hawkish on immigration than Trump was. From the comments thread: I think Tulsi might be moving toward the Dave Rubin/Tim Pool approach—”I used to be ‘left’ and saw the error of my ways,” and she’ll woo right-wingers […]

One good thing about social media, the Internet, and cable TV is that it is now harder for political figures to maintain a statesman-like image. Most reasonable or semi-informed people nowadays know that Biden has dementia, Trump is a narcissistic sociopath, Obama is an opportunistic empty suit, W. […]

By Barton Cockey M.D. Intellectual Takeout A brilliantly orchestrated, seemingly preplanned program of medical tyranny has followed the release of a probable bespoke germ known as SARS-Cov-2, which I call the Faucivirus.

By Branko Marcetic, Jacobin Contrary to claims about “fascist” vaccine mandates currently circulating on the Right, the Nazis actually relaxed German vaccine mandates — and hoped doing […]
So Steve Bannon is a closet Stirnerite? The line that Alexander Reid Ross takes in the interview is what I call the “new popular front” position, which amounts to support for liberal-capitalist regimes against the threat of “fascism.” It’s something of an inversion of the alt-right “globalism vs. […]
Probably the main reason that I frequently butt heads with the left-anarchists is that I do not necessarily believe that the universalization of “wokeism” is the priority issue or even something that needs to happen at all. I tend to view “woke anarchism” the same way I might […]

Ryan Grim and Alyssa Farah react to Politico reporter Ben Schreckinger’s new book. A portion of the book confirms that the NY Post’s 2020 reporting on two damning Hunter Biden emails was legitimate.
Yet another battle intensifies. Maybe there will be some violent streetfighting between pro-life and pro-choice the same way there has been between the alt-right/lite and the antifa/SJWs, with the large cities in red states declaring “abortion rights sanctuaries” and other places declaring “right-to-life sanctuaries.” Krystal and Saagar look […]

It’s rather amusing to hear “progressives” (including some “anarchists”) attacking Nicki Minaj for being an anti-vaxxer the same way conservatives would have attacked her for being a ho 40 years ago (and probably still do).
