yes, because it's the young progressives who are holding the country back on almost every issue

because they are often inherently at odds with the mechanisms of power? Because the country is run by corporate interests? because they're conspired against by not only the right, but their own ostensible party? Because its a law of institutions that those in power would rather lose on their own terms than allow a new…

no, you're right, everyone at Vox is an android

Amber is great and it's great she's now a permanent Dry Boy, but I would reserve this complaint to all the centrist Chapo hit pieces (who did it for narrative reasons). In this article where they name Chapo one of the best podcasts of the year, I think it was an honest mistake

Just think of it in as the very limited appeal of virtue signaling.

theres a certain kind of liberal who thinks making fun of something is more or less equal to real violence, and the only people who deserve to made fun of are republican politicians

What's funny here, is the vital thing about CTH is that they do attack the fake left. As Colbert was to the plurality of conservative pundits in 2006, Chapo skewers the new mainstream of tepid, technocratic, means-testing obsessed center-left journalists. Paul Krugman. The people who love hamilton, basically.

They're like $200 away from meeting the "adam comes back" goal though

Chapo was only authentic in the first three episodes, when they recorded everything on their phones in public restrooms

who is "they" in this situation?

I'm not *that* surprised that Chapo is blowing up, because it's the best podcast in the world. But Cum Town just gets better and better. Nick Mullen has become my favorite comic.

I got into an argument on these very boards over whether or not I was a piece of shit for thinking that it was funny that men with cuck fantasies were comparing their plight to the discrimination gay men faced for decades

Chapo has replaced the hole the Colbert report left in my heart, and politically at least, far improved on the form

90% of rap is bragging. Talking about "bitches" is generally part of the aesthetic, whether you're 2pac, JayZ, or Nicki Minaj.

mario's back, in pog form

Can someone who knows a lot about the game industry explain why Konami is so stupid? PT had built the most hype for any horror game this decade. And in the process, they didnt just lose Silent Hills, they lost Kojima, the brains behind their most acclaimed franchise—and lost him after MGS5, one of the greatest games…

I'll concede that the term *can* be a bit more misogynistic, especially when used as a catchall for not being alpha enough (to keep a woman). But I always thought the joke was more making fun of a man for secretly desiring humiliation. That was the joke in my head—the same as calling someone a foot fetishist. In that…

Just think of words in terms of descriptive value.

As a leftist with real problems with the primacy of identity politics, it's difficult when the alt-right has attacked blindly/clumsily for so long that any critique of limousine liberalism is met with suspicion.

yeah, ok, but you can't call the term cuck misogynist then turn around and absolve the fetish of the same thing, unless you think dudes are getting off on seeing their wife liberated from the patriarchy. It's a form of humiliation, as old as the term cuckold itself, with the myth that the man grew horns and everyone…
