Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Is it actually Leftist or is it liberal? I'd welcome a number one Leftist show, but I don't think most USA citizens are politically literate enough to know the difference. We've been brainwashed by decades of propaganda to think liberalism is synonymous with Leftist.
They self identify as progressive and it seems that they are, so definitely not liberals. I stopped clicking Brian Tyler Cohen videos though because he does clickbait bullshit like "trump gets NIGHTMARE legal news" or "trump campaign SUNK" and it ends up being some legal bullshit they have to re-file because they messed it up the first time, or something stupid like that. Seriously just scroll through his shorts. It's awful.
Gotta play the YouTube algorithm sadly
Soft clickbait I don't mind, but BTC's titles are "the sky is falling" levels of bullshit. I didn't even block his videos, I just stopped clicking and they completely fell out of my feed.
It's a shame because it's not bad content, I'm just sick of clicking a video expecting some big news involving actual consequences for terrible people, only to be told they will get away with a finger wag at worst.
I stopped watching him when he did his show from that expensive looking booth at the DNC.
I wanna see TrueAnon up there…
This guy's close. Tried watching it and it was hard. But then again I never tried Rogan as he seems like a turd. Maybe people just want loud obnoxious content that doesn't teach you much... Guess it feels better then it being on the right wing nazi sphere...
My friend. May Brace bless you and keep you.
Next up, QAA Podcast.
Center right liberal
Oh, so like Pod Save America. Ok, I'll avoid the shit out of it. Thanks!
Pod save America isnt what surpassed Rogan, it was Mediastouch, they are garbage
leftist, almost always comes from right wing sources. in the usa there isnt a true political left.
There is... but it's not the Democrats.
They specifically said "left-leaning" to stop people like you from asking stupid questions like that. Stop gatekeeping anti-fascism.
I don't think you're as familiar with the meaning of terms as you think. Some people call the NYT left-leaning. They absolutely are not. They are a liberal publication and that has a different meaning.
This is what I meant when I said USA citizens have been corrupted by decades of propaganda. Conservative idiots genuinely believe socialism is about making people eat bugs as opposed to helping people out and doing things for their betterment. And liberals genuinely believe that they are Leftists. But go ahead and call my question stupid.
