The Young Turks have always been a fake alternative media outlet that pushes the same talking points as CNN.
They are now in a war against Aaron Mate, Max Blumenthal and Jimmy Dore, defending the CIA and State Department’s war in Syria. They are accusing these guys of all being Russian agents because they don’t want a war in Syria.
I don’t understand the background on all of this drama, but here is the tweet thread that went viral. TYT host Ana Kasparian is accusing Aaron Mate of being a Syrian spy for not supporting a war in Syria.
Remember when Aaron Mate was in Syria in behalf of a pro-Assad group and lied about Yarmouk being bombed by ISIS instead of the Assad regime? I’m sure the constant Assad coverups is just a coincidence. https://t.co/a3PCzvqtuG

Aaron was sent there by a pro-Assad group to do pro-Assad propaganda. Lol. That’s not journalism. Taking monetary gifts from the same same group for his prior pro-Assad reporting is also against journalistic ethics. Legitimizing that sham election is pathetic.

This bitch is now trying to #metoo blackmail Jimmy Dore by saying that he sexually harassed her when he worked at The Young Turks.
She sent him a DM on Twitter threatening to expose a comment he made about her ass if he doesn’t stop being a Russian and Syrian shill.
The Young Turks are going all in on supporting the fake gas attack in Syria.
I can’t go into all of that right now, but long time readers remember that we covered this, and it was all a hoax.
These people the TYT people are attacking also exposed that hoax.

Now, Ana is getting hit up because she did a shill interview with Madeline Albright, a Jewish terror lord.
Again – I don’t understand the ins and outs here.
Very consistent. https://t.co/l3d3lpg626 pic.twitter.com/qeRZsYt2sI

This is the same group that gives out award money to Pro-Assad content creators. The award is known as the Serena Shim Award. Here's Mate admitting that he accepted money from them too while defending Jimmy Dore taking the money. https://t.co/C7Iwz4syfO

The Syria Solidarity Movement was established in 2013 to facilitate a speaking tour for Mother Agnes. Mother Agnes is a pro-Assad nun who argued that the hundreds of victims of a 2013 Ghouta Sarin attack were planted by anti-government insurgents, not killed by the state.

Finally, I do find it fascinating that Mate endlessly obsesses over my ONE interview with Madeline Albright, which had no impact on my politics or work. But seems to think taking money and an invite to Syria from a pro-Assad group is A okay. Nice double standard.

The woke left is entirely married to the neocon war project, and The Young Turks are kind of the key symbol of that marriage. They used to be against war, but now they’re pro-war – because they don’t really have to talk about war, and can instead just talk about child trannies and black people.
Anyway, I’m just trying to keep you informed. If you want to understand the details, you can watch the video at the top.
There is probably a lesson about women here. Ana is a traitor to the Armenian race. She is also a thirty-something that is no longer attractive.
But the bigger thing that I’m interested in is that there are a lot of leftists – associated with Mate, Dore, Blumenthal, along with people like Glenn Greenwald and Matt Taibbi – who are against this Biden Administration hoax.
The thing about all of those people is: they’re all going to get banned. There is zero chance they’re going to be allowed to disagree with TYT long term, when Democrats have total power. A lot of Democrats are more threatened by this than by right-wingers.
Remember, it was a leftist that AOC sent the cops after for criticizing her.
(2/X) I assume this is the tweet they are talking about, where I lightly criticized @AOC for a disappointing answer in response to a question about Palestine/Israel. https://t.co/vNfGcctgsR

I don’t agree with the communist agenda of these people, but I agree with them on a lot. I don’t think they should be banned. In a perfect world, rightists and leftists could have open discussion, and come to places where we agree, and figure out a way to run a new society.
Most of these people are not really unreasonable, from what I’ve seen. There is room for negotiation.
Of course: we don’t have a perfect world, and instead, they’re going to get banned like we’re all banned.
I don’t know what is going to happen in the future. It is possible that banning half of leftists like they’ve already banned 95% of rightists could lead to an incentive for some kind of free and open-source alternative.
Possibilities exist to use blockchain and other decentralized technologies to create open platforms.
In some sense, the more people that are banned the better, as that will ensure that there are the maximum number of people working on alternatives.
