The world is an absolute dumpster fire with a pandemic, economic depression, wild fires, record heat waves and a failing global political system but at least TMBS has been getting some heavy hitters this year.

I can never get to the live postgame. Where is it? It isn't on this page. Been a patron for months and I feel just stupid that I can't find it.

L.A. Creech

Agreed. And as sad as it is to type, it seems like Noam doesn't have too many interviews left in him. Glad Brooks got to speak to him and it will be cool to see one day when people are interviewing old man Brooks about his life long fight for progress.

Hey Michael, it's usually on top of this feed for me and I get an email from patreon. I can't find it either atm, maybe hasn't started yet?

Thomas Pinzone

No luck finding the post game either

Brooksey is withholding the Chomsky from us. I'd make a riot joke but I don't know how appropriate that would be right now.

One thing getting in missed is Lee Fang and Taibbi peddling the right wing canard of "Black on Black" crime. It's hard for me to take the piece seriously if that is the jumping off point. I thought we all agreed unless you're making the left critique or a right wing hack journalist in Ron Paul's old newsletter, talking about it was gauche. So Taibbi and Fang aren't some free speech absolutists, they're defending a faction of the country that wants to kill free speech. There are ways to talk about this without lamenting about not being able to peddle racists canards under the guise of just being a journalist/asking questions we clearly know are racist but whateves. It's gross I hope this doesn't get lost in all of this NYT's either not caring enough about the free press to vet the Cotton op-ed or NYT's has a structural/editorial leaning to defend power to the point it doesn't care to follow it's own editorial standards or lies about it so it can print speech that literally threatens the free press and everything attached to the first amendment.
