Conservatives Denied Housing Over Political Beliefs, Is This Illegal? After a story went viral of a woman's roommates searching her room after finding a MAGA hat people cried foul calling this clear political discrimination. But a second story has emerged this time in Washington DC after a former Fox News staffer revealed she was denied housing twice over her job and her personal politics. What made this interesting is that political affiliation is a protected human right in DC and this might actually be illegal. For left wing and right wing activists, I think the issue is pointless as both probably would not want to live together anyway. But we do have evidence showing that Democrats and Republicans are more likely to mistrust each other over politics than over other factors such as race or gender.

Populism Has Won, Democrats Embrace Populism, Reject Elitism. We now see rising stars in the Democratic party trying to appear down to earth and relatable by using livestreams or posting pictures in normal clothes and cooking dinner. The idea of suited elites is over and the idea of the down to earth politician is here. Elizabeth Warren just announced her 2020 exploratory committee and almost immediately got on Instagram and cracked a brew. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez started the trend which was repeated by Beto O'Rourke and now Elizabeth Warren. It would seem that regardless of what the media says Populism has won and the Democrats are embracing this idea full force for 2020.

Louis CK Performance LEAKED! Media Smears Him As Alt Right. Why? Because he made taboo jokes? Louis CK has always been offensive yet for some reason now the left is accusing him of being alt right or right wing, some have compared him to Milo Yiannopoulos. In realty this seems to be anger over Louis' refusal to go away following his fall from grace. In the past few months regressive left wing activists expressed outrage that he would dare return to work. Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices.

In September a report was published by Data and Society making false claims about people like me, Dave Rubin, Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson, and Ben Shapiro. The report claimed that Youtube was radicalizing young people toward the extreme right. The story was carried by almost every mainstream media outlets and pushed as fact, even though there was no data. It may just be that, like PewDiePie, the left is looking to smear anyone using a competitor or is opposed to their ideology of social justice. But new data has emerged from Software Engineer Mark Ledwich which disproves this narrative. There is no clear path to radicalization. In fact you could argue that if politics is flowing in any direction, it is to the left. Left wing channels get more than double the views of right wing channels on youtube, and the idea of radicalization is simply false and in all likelihood a smear against those who oppose intersectional feminist and the regressive left.

Ocasio-Cortez And The Far Left Are Poisoning Democrat Policy. When it comes to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez her repeated gaffes and nonsensical statements becomes easy targets for the right to go after policy positions. Ocasio-Cortez was paraded around by Democrats so much that she became to prominent for her experience level. Thus we see it again and again. Twitter flame wars, nonsensical gaffes, and a mainstream media that enjoys calling her out as much as Conservatives and Republicans do. Her policy positions and rhetoric is speaking to a tiny minority of the US. If Democrats want to see change and bipartisan support for certain bills they need to recognize the damage Ocasio-Cortez does to these plans.

Gamers Are Test Subjects In The Culture War, Speech Policing Escalates after Blizzard announced you would have to tie your gaming account to a separate platform if you wanted to chat. This opens gamers up to the risk that if they say bad things they could have their games revoked. Far left activist types push for ideology in gaming and esports which results in formerly apolitical people becoming active against these ideas. But why is it always gaming and where are those on the Left speaking out against this terrifying authoritarian push? Previously we saw Overwatch league crackdown on "pepe memes" which is downright strange. It seems like the Culture war is someone personal and there are people targeting gaming culture for malicious reasons. Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices.

New Report Shows Almost ALL Colleges Restrict Free Speech. The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education issued a report recently showing that 9 out of 10 colleges are restricting speech to some degree. While the trope tends to be that the far left and social justice activists are the ones causing this problem, often they are victims of these policies as well. A story from Vox showed that of faculty who were fired from a College for speech it was mostly liberal identified staff. Why then does mainstream media and the left claim there is no free speech crisis? Well for one whether there is or is not a crisis is an opinion, but it is likely just tribal. Conservatives have been complaining over restrictions on speaking events and it would seem like the left wants to deny them this claim. But in the long run, the defense of speech may actually benefit the right. Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Far Left Media Is Dying Because Gen-Z Is Too Conservative. Study after study shows the trend, generation z is becoming conservative and mostly resembles libertarians or moderate Republicans. This is a dramatic shift from Millennials who are overwhelmingly progressive. What happens then is that these companies cannot grow or attract new readers because young people do not want far left media. The outcome is obvious, these companies are laying people off and collapsing. While social justice is something most people agree with, the regressive left is too authoritarian and off putting.

Patreon News Keeps Getting Worse, User's Money FROZEN for 'suspicious activity" Following news about a user having his account suspended "in secret" a story in the New York Times emerged with statements from Jack Conte and their head of Trust and Safety. The statements seem to be directly antagonistic toward the community, specifically Sword and Scale, Dave Rubin, Me, and Sargon of Akkad. They imply that Sargon broke the rules on their platform and Conte implies many of us are simply trying to generate support for a cause of some sort. But all this is only made worse by the original story of a man who had his patreon account suspended without notice. He only found out because patreon had not paid him in about a month.

Evidence Suggests Massive Smear Against Republicans EXPOSED after new evidence as come to light. The New York Times previously reported that Democratic operatives engaged in a false flag to smear Roy Moore in the Alabama Senate race. Initially the Chief executive of the company in question said "it doesn't ring a bell" but later claimed it was just a research project. But in a past tweet he directly pushed the false flag narrative using his "russian bot dashboard" as evidence. If this has been outed as a smear on republicans then what about every other story which cites the Russian bot dashboard as evidence? At the very least ALL of these stories are now questionable and at worst completely fake news and propaganda. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJYkk6xiywE&list=PLxQaod7tWvYLFIEhZprOB5YddTOrZSg1z Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices.
