Ive listened to a few episodes but I can’t really parse through the rampant sarcasm from both the community and the hosts themselves as to what the general consensus is in regards to considering them “left” or what theyre even all about. Some of the things they say and talk about are typical liberal/reactionary nonsense and I saw a post on here yesterday about brace and the comments were typical. I mean…They call themselves the most liberal podcasts out there and Brace brags about how rich he is from podcasting so I haven’t been able to form any type of concrete analysis of them without knowing if theyre being serious about what theyre saying.
Remember that brace actually joined armed struggle in Syria.
I think he can have some podcaster money as a treat.
They’re comrades, but use a lot of irony.
Joined armed struggle (on behalf of the US-aligned SDF, assisting in the theft of Syrian oil and the eventual destruction of the state)
I recall on an episode he clarified he fought for the YPG, not the SDF. I know next to nothing about the Syrian civil war or what the difference between those two groups is, so do with that what you will.
“he was a green beret, not just army!”
I thought he was fighting ISIS
He did fight Isis as part of a US backed organization, calling in American airstrikes from an iPad (I believe he mentioned this on his first chapo appearance)
