Wait, they think :brace-cowboy: is a Zionist shill?
Interesting take
I think that, fighting for the US approved rebels on Israel’s behalf is actually not good.
Can you elaborate in good faith?
I legitimately don’t get if this is a bit or honesty, but either way I would enjoy hearing more of your views on this subject.
Do you mean that Brace went and fought because he likes israel so much and his aim was to increase their security, not the people he actually joined up with? How would that square with his constant criticism of zionism and israel, its all an op and he’s playing 4d chess?
I think he’s an unwitting stooge which discredits his criticisms, does he at least say that the Epstein ring was the Israeli regime’s doing on his podcast? I should hope so.
“I don’t know what a Holocaust denier even is.”
— Norman Finkelstein, who also recently guested on the TrueAnon podcast
Literally doing the exact same scumbag media smear bullshit tactics Finkelstein described on the episode in question
Also Jewish Chronicle smeared labour members who supported Corbyn (and of course smeared Corbyn in general).

Yeah, there was a lot of hasty backtracking in the 80s when Irving went off the deep end. He’d been known for doing good work in the German archives before that happened.
How did he go off the deep end? Like, how did he go from respected historian to Holocaust denier?
Let’s make fun of this article of course, but it’s not wrong about Aimee Therese, red scare, even jimmy dore. Heck throw vaush in there too and you have a legitimate problem of this bullshit in “left media”
I’m trying to throw these people out of the left as hard as I can* but they just don’t seem to go away
(*Im just telling them to eat shit on twitter occasionally)
Aimee Terese is so funny to be put on there. I mean she belongs on the list maybe more than anyone, but a lot of the “irony left” and “dirtbag left” on twitter basically tells her to eat shit nonstop every time she makes a new account. Like while she personofies the phenomenon that the author is trying to describe, him trying to slander the broader dirtbag left becomes difficult when you center a figure that is nearly universally hated.
Eh, Liz Franczak sure is fond of her. But that’s the only “major” dirtbag figure I’m familiar with who seems to like her unironically.
Oh yeah, there’s definitely some reactionaries who are adopting leftist aesthetics (or genuine leftists who have drifted more reactionary). The article loses credibility when it paints with a broader brush, and clearly it’s more concerned with influential leftist alt-media than whether or not there are reactionaries on the left. Hell, I doubt the author even genuinely cares about stopping reactionaries from gaining power.
Hope this is this week’s reading series.
He recently courted a public-relations disaster when he offered a platform to Magnus Panvidya, a member of the Boogaloo Boys, a militant group that threatened violence ahead of Biden’s inauguration.
I’ll take “sentences that sound like Felix bits” for $600
the funniest thing about this article, is that Red Scare, Jimmy Dore are not staples of the left, lmao.
They do have a Matt Christman quote completely randomly thrown in there too though.
Chapo Trap House’s Matt Christman avowed in an interview with the TrueAnon podcasters last year: “There are two basic premises to QAnon, one is right and one is wrong, … That’s why I say it’s a 50/50 thing. The premise of, ‘We are ruled by a cabal of cannibalistic psychotic sexual abusers and all the institutions that they create are to further their dominance over us’: Correct. And that ‘Donald Trump is going to stop them’: Incorrect.”
Imagine living through #MeToo and thinking “people in power exploit their authority to commit sexual assault” is a conspiracy theory.
