Ana Kasparian Feuds With Cenk Uygur Over Left's Fake "Fascism" Meme

Kasparian was previously a reliable Democrat Progressive Robot NPC. She was outraged at everything the left told her to be outraged about, and she canceled everyone they told her to cancel.

Then she was sexually assaulted by two homeless criminals set free by the left and she was told by the left that she should shut up and accept her violation because the decarceration agenda depends on victims volunteering for their victimization.

Then she started calling out the left for how insane it's gotten.

Below, she crosses the left's Rubicon when she says that this whole "fascism" smear against Trump is a phony op. Live during the (Not So) Young Turks' podcast.

Cenk turns into a sweaty shouty baby. So, same as every other day.

She also objects to the left covering up for Biden's "garbage" smear.

And wait -- did she just say the media isn't living in reality and would rather lie than report the truth?

I like her so much now. pic.twitter.com/Mxcjqi6J7Y

Below, she discusses why so many have left the left.

I've heard she has an ownership stake in the corporate Young Turks' business. If that's true, booting her out would be messy and costly. But they're going to do it, obviously.

12 What's bizarre is I saw Kasparian call Trump "authoritarian," also on Twitter.

So, she agrees that he's a threat to democracy, just not that he's a *racist* threat to democracy.

But that's the Left for you: you can't just agree on 80% of things, it has to be 100% or you're worse than Hitler.

It's more direct. People have to pay attention and use their brain to reason that "Extreme MAGA Republicans" ~=~ "Enemy within".

I've been amazed that the most overtly Nazi display ever given by an American president has really gotten ignored as much as it has been. (That's one for the Golden Stream Media).

But the "garbage" thing is more out there for everyone to see. He's calling people garbage.

Because he's a nasty old man, who grew out of a nasty younger man.

She's called out other things as well. I think at some point you have to get very exhausted by being a propagandist if you are in any way a normal person.

Because no one wants the version of the Right promoted by GWB and his family, Mitt Romney, McConnell, McCarthy, etc etc.

Who here would put Capn Billy on the right, Nat Review?, Quin Hillyer, Fox News (the actual news division) etc. etc.

Conservatism uniparty as defined by those assholes was invade the world and invite the whole world to live here and outsource every bit of industry for the investor class to make a few more bucks.

Thus, the GOP was to pretend to resist and then over and over again betray its own voters and even the national interest.

So you get political refugees that view things differently than the old norm but can still speak to some of their old comrades. Some of the most zealous people are actually converts btw.

When confronted with those things above about how bad the Dems are, they just dismiss it as an attack on them personally.

The Right bases their allegiance on meeting our principles and that is why so many on the Right get disgusted with our politicians.

I actually have a horse! But he is in a retirement home in Virginia. I toy with the idea of another one on occasion because I miss riding every day. I have a trailer already in VA, but I would have to get another truck at some point.

98 The left are not basing their allegiance on logic. For them it is like rooting for a team, or being in a cult.

When confronted with those things above about how bad the Dems are, they just dismiss it as an attack on them personally.

The Right bases their allegiance on meeting our principles and that is why so many on the Right get disgusted with our politicians.

It is very hard to convert a Lefty. It is like making a drug addict go straight.

These plus the awful people like Colin Powell, Kinzinger, etc. Phelan (TX House Speaker), the awful lt gov of maryland that ran the RNC during Obama years, and so on

150 I give Kasparian partial credit, but on Cenk's show she still bought into the premise of "Yeah Trump said all these things but..." when every single one of those is a freaking lie/distortion.

Trump never said he would "dissolve the Constitution."
Trump never praised Neonazis.
Trump never advocated grabbing women by the puthay (vs a private joke about famewhores that was, indisputably, an essentially truth).
Trump never put together "fake electors" (his legal team wanted to be sure their case wouldn't be dismissed for "mootness" of "lack of standing" per BS prior holdings, and so wanted to be sure they had a slate of alternate electors with standing) etc etc etc.

The problem is that the media have flooded the zone with so many (fake) "Trumpsaids" and repeated them ad nauseum that for most of the regular MSM audience, just referring to any of them resonates as a major proof of Trumps Dictatorial Insanity.

So in any hostile interview the journohack can simply rattle off 10 Trumpsaids such that it's virtually impossible for anyone to respond with (a) all minutia/context to debunk it, and AND (b) be able to compress/synthesize all those rebuttals into a 10 second TV segment.

QAnon was not big on the right, Harry. It was more or less an old Russian intel op dusted off right out of Commieland during Lenin's early years.

Most older people that watch TV news channels in general are also going to be more set in their ways. MSNBC, I think has the oldest demographics with CNN and Fox following. Even Fox's demographic median are now over 60 in age. MSNBC is something like 68 and CNN is about 65.

He's honestly like every boss you've ever had - or every COB you've watched people textually blow.

He's not smart - but he is in charge. And He'll be damned if you ever forget it.

Cenk would get his mouth mashed in any bar I've ever been in. Because he's dumb.

I'd like to play him in any game of skill for money. To take his money. Because he is dumb. And he has money. That I'd like to take.

Of course, we have a robust platform, including:

- eliminating unconstitutional age of consent laws
- bring back debtors prisons
- legalize all drugs, especially in the butt
- government-provided waifus
- getting back at our fathers for showing our sisters more attention than us
- mandatory LGBTQIAP+ face masking, because your bodily autonomy doesn’t exist if I feel like there’s a pandemic

173 QAnon was not big on the right, Harry. It was more or less an old Russian intel op dusted off right out of Commieland during Lenin's early years.

Most older people that watch TV news channels in general are also going to be more set in their ways. MSNBC, I think has the oldest demographics with CNN and Fox following. Even Fox's demographic median are now over 60 in age. MSNBC is something like 68 and CNN is about 65.

Yes, most of the cable news watching people I am referring to are older.

As far as QAnon? I don't know, man. Maybe it's the circles I was running in at the time, but I certainly had my fair share of "JFK Jr. is not dead, he's coming back to be Trumps' VP" conversations with people during COVID. Or are you quibbling with me calling them right wing?

No, you never bring dialectic to a rhetorical fight. You do like Trump, etc. You call the media out on THEIR lying rather than trying to refute whatever nonsense they put out.

Never engage in a dialectical argument with a leftist (or people that are midwits) because they will use every demagogic (and logical fallacy) trick in the book to "WIN" their argument.

Instead, you give them a bloody nose by turning insults back on them. They can't generally handle it. Trump and Reagan back in the day were pretty good about repartee and using the dagger thrust when a pos journalist tries to hit them with leftist insults disguised as questions.

Yes, many of these people follow whatever trend whether UFOs, Fluoride in the water, Chem trails, etc. What has made things so confusing nowadays is there is evidence of massive sex trafficking among elites now (Epstein, Diddy, and more) including pedo activities, there is more evidence that massive cheating occurred in voting in 2020 for the Dems and that Covid turned out to be funded by the very guy that was allegedly so dogged in fighting it. Fauci, and so on. Same with the vaxx injections causing a lot of people physical harm in their health or even death.

All of these things were called conspiracy theories, many of which use Gell Mann Amnesia to believe this time the media is telling the truth when it hasn't, like the Deep State, ever told it in the first place. There is a reason that gaslighting has become a big thing even to trivial matters like the garbage issue.

Yes, totally. I think where a lot of those who cut their political teeth on Reagan get confused, and end up in the wrong place (on Trump and many issues) is that the issue isn't "What Reagan Stood For" but that the issues of our time are very different from those in Reagan's time. Then we had national malaise, a USSR to deal with and broad need to revive American optimism and patriotism. Today we have a hydra of street commies, WEF/Davos/WHO/Spectre looking to enslave us into a version of CCP Social Credit, under their exclusive management, unchecked national disintegration in the form of mass migration, etc. etc.

Reagan and Reaganism were awesome, just irrelevant to most of the issues we face 40 years later.

The actual trigger for her is when the lefties called her racist for complaining about the incident and the pervasive crime the Democrats tolerate in the cities.

But the perps were white and she had never said they were black...but the core of 'her side' just instantly assumed that they had to be blacks.

I believe, however, they've finally realized we may have a point and perhaps discussion rather than dismissal by assertion would be the better course.

That's because very few on the left even know what a fascist is. They don't know the target they are actually trying to hit.

Agreed, because it isn’t rational to go Harris thinking some lesson will be learned by the political class. I do think finally the message is being received, and if we get Trump over the finish line, the old guard is going to be forced to listen, or join the Dems like Cheney. We aren’t going back for real, but it made sense not to sacrifice everything at the alter of “showing the man”.

I got tossed because they thought it was profanity.

Another time Q-Anon, which you could tell was more than one person due to writing style and punctuation, posted a photograph in London of that Ferris wheel. I happened to be in London the same night in that area, and unless you were standing right next to it, the fog would have concealed it. So, I posted a real photo and entitled it "Jr. G-man is full of bollocks. But, he sure knows how to search out Getty Photos. Good work!!"

None of which are actually interested in joining the GOP. Greenwald is in Brazil, Taibbi is more concerned with demonizing Russia and the IC community, and neither Ana nor Tracey seem ready to repudiate most of their leftism.

One can find common ground with some but claiming they are influential to teh GOP broadly is a bit too far an assertion to make.

Mark Cuban, a really dumb guy, who thinks he’s “hot stuff” but he’s absolutely nothing, is now out there saying that I don’t surround myself with strong women. Actually, he is very wrong, I surround myself with the strongest of women - With the understanding that ALL women are great, whether strong or not strong. This guy is such a fool, he’s constantly on Television being critical, and only for the reason that I tuned him out completely while President because he called incessantly. I told him, very pointedly, “Look Mark, I’ve got a lot of things to do, I just can’t be taking so many pointless calls from you.” In any event, that affected him greatly, because he’s a very insecure guy, and a MAJOR LOSER, always has been and always will be! Nobody likes him, nobody respects him, and he’s unattractive both inside and out! He should go back to talk about the person he was forced to support, because I didn’t want it, Lyin’ Kamala Harris. Also, he’s got no clubhead speed!

I may, in fact, be surrounded by the strongest women in the World, including Heads of Countries, who make Mark look like a “baby!” All strong women, and women in general, should be very angry about th

All of them. Researching it appears that the ship left dock above the 610 bridge then loop bridge, [couldn't find anything about the very low one] and the suspension bridge is called the Fred Hartman it's the last and highest.

There are still some oddities about the whole op including the silence from Trump etc. (Flynn alone would recognize the Trust type op from training and history of intel operations) as well as others.

The Dems were denouncing it but it was actually inspiring fear among some of their supporters. Now no one brings it up. That to me is a perfect example of an intel op but for what purpose, I do not know. Undermining trust in authority overall does not seem to be a good goal for the Deep State and few, if any, GOP in office took the bait publicly.

Reagan would have been a better president had he been elected four years earlier. Some of his worst decisions, like trading arms for hostages, going into Lebanon to protect the PLO, the impulsive zero option, were based on emotions rather than logic. Same goes for amnesty for illegals and the awful Simpson Mazzoli act.

We should applaud this and welcome her. There are tens of millions of people that are stuck in the old "Left" / "Right" mindset when the reality is that we've been in a class war for 30 years.

272 Trump was referring to the use of Executive Orders. Most Presidents use Executive Orders on Day One, and throughout their Presidency. However, no President used the Dictatorial Power of Executive Orders more than J. Robinette Biden.
It is childish to throw up that comment about using Executive Orders as a fear about becoming a dictator. Still, no Republican has dismantled it by referring to the use of executive orders. It's almost like their primary fear is about making Democrats look stupid and childish.
