The Washington Post published a puff piece sucking up to billionaire hedge fund manager Leon Cooperman, claiming that Cooperman is a shining example of the American Dream and what a billionaire should be. What’s more startling about the piece is that Cooperman can’t figure out why people hate that billionaire exist. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 6-8 pm ET. http://youtube.com/theyoungturks/live Read more HERE: https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2022/01/30/moral-calculations-billionaire/ “The stock market had been open for only 17 minutes when Leon Cooperman picked up the phone to check how much money he’d made. He dialed a private line to his trading desk in New Jersey, just as he did a dozen times each day. “Decent start to the morning?” he asked. “Oh yeah. The market’s shaky, but you’re up.” “Give me numbers.” “Looks like six, seven million.” “Fine. Thank you. Let’s keep holding steady,” said Cooperman, 78. He hung up and watched a stock graph on his computer screen as it rose from one minute to the next, charting another good day to be a billionaire in America. Outside the office, he could see his wife leaving to play in her weekly bridge game and a group of golfers strolling past on a private course. He’d chosen to live in Florida for at least 183 days each year in part to benefit from the state’s low tax rate for residents, and from 7 a.m. until midnight he was typically seated at the desk in his office, managing the more than $2.5 billion he’d made during a career as an investor and a hedge fund manager.” *** The largest online progressive news show in the world.

regarding that post about joe rogan platforming white supremacists - you mentioned that he has had about 25% of the list as guests but don't mention which people. would you be able to provide that info? i'm trying to help educate an acquaintance who is a rogan fan but i don't know that much about him myself
So this is the list of the twenty-four people that 74 white supremacists mentioned the most-often as drawing them into white supremacy. ¼ of white supremacist recruiters on that list who have also been on Rogan’s shitty podcast (and how many times they’ve been guests):
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
