Chapo are hipster? I think you're using that word wrong. And I never thought of Jamie as dumb. Just stonery and enthusiastic about commie jargon that makes you sound goofy. The Antifada has good conversations and guests but they do have a tendency to get pretty pinko in a way that a more cynical person like you or me kinda nods along to but I still like their energy.

Everyone should listen to Behind the Bastards though. They talk about some heavy **** but the host is a funny eccentric who keeps things light and it's never like a lecture. Back before the pandemic when they were in a proper studio Robert Evans the host would regular throw bagels at the wall and swing around a machete while his producer tried to reign in his nonsense. The only podcast I've bought merch for.

I feel that but at the same time if you tell leftists and potential leftists that you have to do all this homework if you want to be part of the movement then the left will only exist in academia. Obviously theory is important but if you can't draw in people with simpler ideas like democracy in the workplace and billionaires are bad then it's not going to grow into anything. Joe Six-Pack who doesn't read needs to be comfortable just wanting an end to bosses ruling their life without having any say in the matter.

but they all need to read more books and be more measured in their opinions if they want to be taken seriously beyond that, because they constantly say stupid **** and air out half-baked opinions

it's kinda cringe because the format leaves no room for "I'm exploring this idea", it's based on LARP'ing as a source of authority

I really don't care about the movement tbh.... I'm not listening to any of the other people under the impression that it makes a difference. It's just entertainment to me. It's just semi educational/mentally stimulating entertainment. Since I don't have the energy, time or inclination to sit down and actually educate myself lol

Well one of the two other hosts of the Antifada is a union construction worker so not hipster.

@batlord didn't your boy Beau just get cancelled for human trafficking or some ****?

[The Batlord]

Had to look that one up and apparently in 2007 he was put in prison for smuggling Russian women into America to work as maids. Sounds potentially shady obviously but I don't really give a **** about illegal immigration and I didn't see anything necessarily sinister just on a cursory glance.
