What did they announce, it hasn't hit the Graun yet?

Wasn't sure about the first couples of points made in the first video, I think they're open to interpretation frankly, but the one about health care spending appears to be a direct attempt by Sargon to mislead people using statistics. I stopped there since it basically made your case at that point and the orator is dreary as fuck. That said, Sargon's whole video was a trolling attempt, which is why I was kind of surprised that anyone would post a response to it. I don't think I'd class that as one of his better works - it was just a take down (probably of Steve Shives). I take the point of course, but obviously I think the MSM are using the exact same tactics. In fact, more than anything, this just confirms to me again how tedious the whole affair is, as I said a couple of pages back. How we could use some honest media... EDIT - Have you seen the one he did when addressing 'the media' It's a classic. He honestly does believe he's literally fighting a war.

I'm fucking watching them man, don't worry
-
I'll watch them. In the meantime, I want to stress that even feminists - proper ones - are decrying SJWs:
-
Yep, they've done Labour no favours at all there.
-
You're right mind, he's framed their entire PL experience based on how they performed compared to us.
-
The Communist Party have just announced they're not going to field any candidates this year and will instead back Labour. Which is worth roughly 250 votes for Labour, and has been seized upon by the Tories as follows, ffs: Let this sink in: Jeremy Corbyn has been endorsed today by a party who want to close down businesses, leave the protection of NATO and hike up taxes to a level never seen before in this country.
-
It has been deleted What did we miss?
-
True but we haven't discussed the traditional media's attempt to silence new media. Which has been going on over the past few weeks. Not that anyone would care I should probably post in forums besides this one tbf to you lot.

This stuff matters, Alex
-
Well I tried but found nothing.
-
I keep wanting to start one about the MSM But I suspect I'd get banned on principle
-
Have you started regretting making the thread yet?
-
I just watched that video to check the content - thumbnail aside, it's a fucking brilliant riposte to his critics (which is what it actually is). This is kind of the problem with him though, while he's very very good at making the ideology driven look really fucking stupid, it's not a massively useful thing to spend your life doing.
-
I suppose we should consider it encouraging that in order to differentiate from the Tories, these are the lengths they have to go to... But that said, fucking hell.
-
I appreciate the visual
-
Agreed, it isn't - but it does actually matter. Depressingly. The "SJW debate" is why we have street fights between Antifa and Trump supporters in the US. Many people have argued that a rejection of identity politics and associated political correctness issues have had a hand in recent electoral victories for right wingers as well. Not the most pressing, but bizarrely, does seem to play a part.
-
Sargon is worth checking out if for no other reason than seeing that there is actually a narrative aside from the mainstream one, and he seems to be a good barometer for how the populists think. He's supporting Le Pen for France (predictably): I don't actually back his views on this, but I think it offers a good insight (plus some of the footage he has is a bit fucking scary) into how some people view it. Interesting. I have little time for Milo apart from occasionally enjoying watching him wind people up. I'm certain he's only in it for the money.
-
To be fair, I don't think his issue is sexual frustration. His topics span far more than feminism and cover all sides of the SJW debate. He believes he's in a culture war and seems to spend his entire life waging it. He believes what he says as much as the SJWs believe what they say.
-
Thunderfoot is tedious and incredibly annoying to listen to. What I've come to learn is that everyone says feminism is about equality. And most normal, right thinking people actually do consider it to be about equality. And are satisfied when it reaches this point. These people aren't, I believe, the ones he goes after. He tends to rail against those who use feminism as a vehicle for pushing beyond the point of equality. At the end of the day a great many people have invested large amounts of their lives in feminism, and the fact that we're now rapidly approaching the point where it is no longer relevant (in younger generations, in a number of areas, we have hit this point, what with boys being left behind at school, making up fewer numbers of university admissions, and being paid less than women until they're 30). But these people need it to keep going because it is their livelihood. And or because they've internalised so much of it that they simply can't stop. But look, either way, his feminism stuff isn't actually massively interesting. His stuff on the media has been far more enlightening He also correctly called Brexit and Trump fwiw. Seems to have a better reading of the populist mood than most. EDIT - he gets paid $5k/month plus his Youtube ad revenue for doing what he does though, so I will say that I think he has a vested interest in appealing to his audience rather than always being entirely honest.

Feminism does not equal women. It is an ideology.
-
I don't for certain know what a spear tackle is, but it sounds like the correct approach.
-
He's married but I guess it could be loveless. In fact, I think he has kids so he must have managed it at least once Why do you think he's a misogynist?

Absolutely this
