He really needs some anger management lessons.

Dimmy Jore. He’s bad folks.

Seriously he’s actually very bad now

He was part of my radicalization pipeline so I’ll give him that. But now whenever I see a video suggestion pop up on YT I cringe.

Idc enough to but now I’m wondering if he’s always been so unhinged now that I’m where I’m at or if this is like a new level of unhinged.

I feel the same way about Kyle Kulinski. Were they always this bad, or have they gotten worse? I wonder the same

Oh is he shit now too? I never found him that interesting but I watched a lot of him during quarantine when I had literally nothing to do.

Sometimes it’s easy to get behind a guy showing outrage when it resonates. And you don’t find out until later that he’s not outraged because of the injustice. He’s just an angry asshole who sad a thing you agree with.

Also, people just seem to become more bitter as they grow old.

After reading up on this situation, everyone involved in this is a piece of shit. TYT is full of imperialists, Dore and his cohorts are reactionaries, and good reporting aside, Aaron Mate seems to be running the Glenn Greenwald playbook.

Also the Ana Kasparian and Madeleine Albright thing really encapsulates what the succdem YouTube column is really all about

I’m a reformed Daily Show guy, so I won’t pretend to be above watching liberal shit heads from time to time.

But I have never grasped the appeal of TYT or Jimmy’s show. Or the Majority Report, tbh. Like, I hear Dave Anthony get all defensive about his friend Jimmy and all I can think is “Why do you continue to go to bat for this asshole? You’re better than this.”

TYT has always been bullshit since back in the day. Never for a second did I believe Cenk had a return to Jesus type moment when he supposedly renounced his Republican ways. You’d always read bits and pieces about how everything wasn’t how it seemed in the background with TYT.

I kind of get MR. Seder was alright relatively speaking, with a big emphasis on relatively. Lot of people use his videos dunking on Libertarians as references, and he does a very good job with those. Outside of that, it’s clear that he’s still very much attached to liberal media with his forays into NBC networks. With the passing of Michael Brooks, it’s clear Seder wanted to take the show in a less radical direction. There were many occasions where him and Brooks would butt heads because of Seder’s incapability of understanding the liberal premises undergirding some of his arguments. He also didn’t take too kindly to Jamie on many occasions either, and it’s obvious that played a role in her leaving the show.

Dore is just a shitshow. Everything related to the TYT tree seems 🤡 world status. Rubin fell from that same tree too.

Honestly the passing of Michael Brooks was a huge blow for any leftist renaissance on YouTube. Some of us probably didn’t agree with him on everything, but from everything I’ve heard about him, he seemed to be a very genuine person and really was intent on forming a unified leftist front.

Dore has always sucked. Still embarrassing this site was slobbering over him in December.

This didnt happen. A lot of people happened to support a tactic that he supported and sadly ended up being a face off on leftish social media . That doesnt require taking any liking to the dude. At most there were takes that leftist media personalities should be angries and shout more like him

One can go back and look at the threads to refresh the memory, plenty of folks were making it about him and the persons involved.

Can somebody give me an extremely condescending summary of what’s happened so far? Like, imagine telling the story while making the jacking off motion throughout the entire thing. That’s about how much respect I think succdem YouTube drama deserves, and I refuse to hear it any other way.

Jimmy Dore admitted live on air to sexually harassing Ana Kasparian at TYT years ago and has been melting down ever since.

Kyle Kulinski from what I guess tried to both sides, then Dore got mad at him and Kulinski did something else. Idk.

Even if all this is true, Jimmy’s recollection of his interactions with Ana was disgustingly sexist and completely lacking in self-awareness.

Which retroactively kinda justifies people saying Jimmy’s involvement in ftv made it toxic.

Succs weren’t going to pull the trigger on that anyway, because they succ.

Pretending like Dore was part of the equation is like blaming Ralph Nader for climate change.
