84 - I Post Alone

This week we take a look at the way the right wing feels about gassing refugees: pretty good! Either the crisis is real and good, or fake and bad (because it's fake.) Also, Ammon Bundy comes out in favor of refugees and migrant workers, probably not for any ulterior motives, and his "anti-government" fanbase immediately turns on him. Finally, Marc Lamont Hill speaks out in support of Palestinians at the UN, and is fired by CNN, thanks to right wing internet chuds. Orange County DSA is going to Tijuana to support the refugee caravan directly: https://www.gofundme.com/support-the-migrant-caravan-w-oc-dsa

83 - The White Obama

This week we talk about the humanitarian refugee crisis at the southern border of the United States, and Hillary Clinton's plan to combat the racist right wing by enacting their agenda. Also, we address the "excitement" around Beto O'Rourke, and its roots in optics, armchair political strategy, and the donor class.

82 - Here's To The Black & The Blue

Jemel Robinson is killed by a trigger-happy police officer after subduing a shooting suspect at his bar. Facebook and Fox News are horrified that his race was reported. Kanye West donates $150k to Jemel's family, but gives no money to the victims of white genocide. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez can't afford an apartment in Washington DC and this is somehow a critique of socialism.

81 - Being Blunt at Chili's

This week we cover a few viral stories surrounding the election, including: An America's Got Talent loser getting fired by ZZ Top for sponsoring a lib-triggering facebook post, plus, his totally-real story about getting accosted by "hot topic kids" at a Chili's. That guy who wore a confederate noose T Shirt to the polls, and how it's not racist, according to obvious racists and finally, a woman collapses at a Trump rally, the audience sings at her lifeless body, and this an example of republican universal healthcare

80 - Blexit Through The Grift Shop

This week we go over the stunningly funny developments in right wing politics: the transparent attempt by Jacob Wohl, the Doogie Howser of f*cking up online, to smear Robert Mueller with rape allegations, and Kanye's Blexit from the Blexit "movement." Various takes from the right wing on the Mueller accusation: "God I hope this rape happened" "Does this rape accusation mean he's on our side?" And on the Kanye departure from Blexit: "Candace Owens can use me anytime" "If Kanye doesn't support Trump anymore, he's back to being a slave."

79 - Fright-Wing Scare-orism

It's a spooky halloween edition of Minion Death Cult where we cover business as usual in America with multiple far right attacks on politicians and jewish worshippers. The right wing has no answer to the real-life version of their murderous, conspiracy-minded online culture, as one of their own is caught after sending bombs to right wing boogeymen like Hillary Clinton and George Soros. Takes range from: "Soros did the bombs to himself," "if he were a real republican, these bombs would've worked," and "we don't want these politicians bombed, we want them secretly executed." Also, the far-right ideology behind the antisemitic mass shooter is more mainstream than liberals want to admit. Finally, Megyn Kelly gets fired from NBC for saying blackface is cool and good.

78 - Gang of 4Chan

Thanks to Vic Berger, NYPD finally arrests the very Proud Boys who mobbed and beat a couple antifa protesters outside a New York Republicans event featuring speaker Gavin McInnes, who was booked specifically to reenact the 1960 murder of a Japanese socialist leader. Lot goin on. We have various facebook reactions to this including: "Proud Boys suck. They're probably GAY"; "Gavin McInnes is just doing fascism to get popular"; and "Vic Berger is just being a tough guy behind his video editing software." Also: we dissect the extremely cringe NPC meme, via the lens of a NYT article, and the commenters dumb enough to think it's funny and good.

76 - I Would Die 4 U

We're Back! A Podcast Story This week we cover the police department who use rehired Tamir Rice's killer, because "Everyone deserves a second chance," which is of course an insane thing to say as an agent of the penal system. Also, model/actress Emily Ratajkowski protests Judge Kavanaugh's confirmation to the Supreme Court, and is met with dozens of vile r*pe jokes on her facebook page. Finally, on a lighter note, Hyatt Regency ban hate groups from holding conventions at their hotels, and millions of conservative organizations ears perk up.

75 - Close-Range American Sniper

This week we're still covering the story of Botham Jean's murder at the hands of a Dallas Police Officer, including the "breaking" "news" that they found marijuana in his apartment. We address this horrid smear tactic, Fox 4 News' complicity in broadcasting this information, and, after social media outrage, their subsequent backpedaling and a complete overhaul of the initial report. Also, of course, the worst responses social media has to offer. Plus: A heroic reporter on the scenes of Hurricane Florence tries to snitch on people taking water and supplies from a local Family Dollar. Pulitzer time?
