Chapo Trap House and the rise of the dirtbag left

You can track most, if not all of it, via C0n0r @rpwel's feed xp

who?? why are we typing in code? i don't know who that is, that @ leads nowhere

conor's a v online v good dude in DC DSA & i'd guess simon's typed in code to googleproof his real name

xp Replace the @ w/A and the last name is his twitter

ah ok i see. so basically M4A put something out without the input of the DSA's disabled contingent, those people got mad, then Amber went ott and basically said "haters gonna hate"? that sucks.

why are leftist/liberal organizations so much more prone to internecine battles like this? not saying it's not justified, but damn. bums me out. circular firing squad, etc.

Stuff like "Has Chapo even had a disabled person on as a guest? Lol" is not much more helpful than Amber.

yeah, i was gonna say a person can be disabled and also an asshole. i know from experience. that twitter feed was just ridiculous, initial complaints aside. the escalation and calls for people to cancel their patreon subs? get over yourself...

I'm fully confident that there wasn't malice behind their inability to reach us. From what we understand, their contact information was incorrect, and they assumed we had just failed to reply when we never received the message.

Oh my god

this thread is the worst place online

hi amber

I expect more from my dirtbags

She has a “hates libs more than fascists” thing.

What are these people on

we covered that upthread iirc

Amber's a real bridge-builder.

That post otm tho

Most of the stuff on the Chapo subreddit isn't about the show.

I find the show-related Discord channel to be rewarding, tho. I believe we’ve linked to it from this thread before

Nagl is bad tho

fkn hate this ‘fan community’ that pays me and my buds $90k a month to tell jokes

felix is on fire in today’s episode btw

Have the other chapos banned Amber from using twitter lol

cocaine fueled cults of personality are a hell of a drug

she hasn't been on twitter for a long time

it's amusing to me that she is now unambiguously, unanimously the worst chapo

felix is on fire in today’s episode btw

....and that Felix is now the best

maybe this is just part of her character arc. she'll team up with Eleven in the Upside Down and redeem herself next season, don't worry.

i have long been on team felix tbh

I like him better since he expanded his repertoire from three jokes to about five

he's got two more ready but will only deploy them one per year

the latest CumTown was fucking hilarious tbqh

at least that's what I heard from my friend, who is very problematic

Nagl is bad tho

nagl is nagl

It would be hilarious if Matt’s Hellworld hypothesis was proved by Chapo becoming the new Vice with Amber as Gavin McInnes.

Chapo has too many self-defeating dork tendencies for that danger to be probable, tho

maybe said here before but chapo sometimes sounds like what political ilx would sound like as a podcast if it just wanted to do it and be legends man

It actually reminds me a lot of hanging out in the office of my college weekly when I was a freshman and older "cool" dorks were running it, late-night pizza-fueled frustrated howling at idiocy etc.

chapo has the feel of when I went to a comic book shop around 11pm with a group of friends and there was a table of guys role playing in full loud dork mode, and when they saw that a woman had entered the shop they tried to act cool for a few minutes but soon the effort collapsed

as a Torontonian, this J0rd@n Peters0n segment is giving me life

A campus group at Portland State is bringing the Damore fuckhead to town next month.

Update Jan. 9, 3:02 p.m.: PSU spokesman Christopher Broderick said in a statement the event was organized by a student group, Freethinkers of PSU. He added that the university does not endorse the views of speakers invited to campus, though it encourages free speech.

Good ep on ”Trumpwashing” from the Citations Needed podcast

citations needed is really great

yes it is v good

citations needed really impresses me with how often i'll go into an episode with the attitude of "oh, i already know about THAT" and come out with an angle i totally hadn't considered.

Oh yeah, and distilling down a lot of things I wish I could say in a better manner.

I finally listened to a Cum Town clip on YouTube and they were using the "r word" talking about a mentally handicapped kid getting molested it was disgusting, what is wrong w them?

oh see they're engaged in the bigger struggle & also are popular + probably rich, so they can just be human garbage and not have to worry about it

I don't think the "bigger struggle" thing is even true unless you count amber

but also I feel the need to reiterate for the benefit of people who swing by and don't actually listen to any of this shit that almost no one who matters seriously advocates for the virtue of cum town

except the actual hosts and creators of Chapo Traphouse who I guess I'm assuming kinda "matter" in terms of their own show and all
