After watching the full episode, I think it's really concerning that everything you guys say always leads to the natural conclusion of "it's the democrats' fault". You completely gloss over the fact that Chomsky also talked about a failure of the left and the activist movement to organize, which presumably you and Krystal are part of? And yet Kyle, all you do in your videos is cynically bitch about the democrats. You never teach your audience about organizing. You never explain to them what "putting pressure" is even supposed to mean besides complaining on Twitter. You keep them angry and pessimistic...but completely fail to empower them in any way to do anything about it.

And that's not even getting into the fact that you consistently get stories wrong and spread misinformation. Even here, you and Krystal smugly dismiss the American Rescue Plan as "$1400 breadcrumbs", completely failing to explain that the bill is actually full of other far more important and substantial provisions and that we should be putting maximum pressure to get it passed.

Also, please stop talking about Gamestop. Almost everything you've said about that is either misinformation or fake news. All of the populism in it is fake. The hedge funds and the WallStreetBets leaders made a ton of money at the expense of regular people and they were always going to. It was a disgusting cult-like pump and dump that you irresponsibly supported.

Please have a bit of introspection. You're not helping the movement.

Democrat leadership cabal must make sure that the scam of the century - Russia-gate hoax -- is NOT, will NEVER be, accounted for. The lying team is back in power -- Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, Kamala (Hillary's protégé), Schiff

The entire anti-Russian narrative and “Ukraine impeachment” were deliberate fabrications. Even worse -- there must be not any requests for resolution of Biden-Hunter corruption (Ukraine, laptop, China)

The censorship of HiTech giants will only increase -- you will never hear about persecution of free speech publisher Julian Assange.

The Democratic Party is a dictatorship of billionaire donors and arm and intelligence industry interests -- nothing that benefits the public in a meaningful way is relevant to it, nor can we ever expect any honesty or transparency over vital issues.

Remember: The entire anti-Russian narrative is a deliberate fabrication.

Clapper, Brennan & Hayden trio were among former 50 Obama intelligence officials stating that Hunter-laptop is classical “Russian disinformation”.

- They were also key promoters of the three-year Russia-gate hoax.

- They were also key intelligence executives in Obama/Biden/Hillary government – the government which hunted Snowden (forcing Bolivian plane with Bolivia’s president to land to search it) and armed Al Qaeda (including “white helmets” hoax) and staged all chemical attacks in Syria to remove its government.

The Russia-gate hoax and Ukraine-impeachment “entertainment” was concocted by Obama/Hillary/Biden/Pelosi, Schumer, Schiff, etc. and their intelligence and DNC executives on behalf of their Wall Street and military industry donors, i.e., the War party

The Democratic Party is a dictatorship of billionaire donors and arms and intelligence industry interests -- nothing that benefits the 99% of population is relevant to it. Once again, by far the highest need and interest of Biden government and its DNC cabal is that Russia-gate immense hoax – the scam of the century -- will NOT / will NEVER be exposed.

Hence obligations to primary propagandists for their roles, including despicable Kamala Harris (Hillary’s protégé), Neera Tanden, Melissa Hodgman (wife of the Comey’s infamous Peter Strzok), Pete Buttigieg, etc,

Hi guys, love the show and what you're doing.

This is a bit of a non-sequitur, but on the topic of corporate hegemony/govt-industry-capture I feel it's urgent to get the word out about the need for mass/cheap/at-home rapid tests (to get R below 1 and keep it there) and an FDA official's out-in-the-open conflict of interest that's preventing such a program from getting off the ground. Push for such a program is in this piece from The Hill but Shuren's conflict is not called out:

ttps://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/538349-biden-raises-hopes-for-new-course-to-jumpstart-rapid-covid-19-tests

You may wonder, why hasn't this mass testing happened yet? The top FDA official overseeing testing, Jeffrey Shuren, is deeply conflicted: he is married to a lawyer, Allison Shuren, who "co-chairs the Life Sciences and Healthcare Regulatory practice" at her firm, and whose clients include "diagnostic testing facilities, clinical laboratories".

These clients are making a lot of money right now from COVID testing, and very publicly say these good times will continue for them even with the vaccine rollout:

A government-funded program for mass, cheap, at-home rapid tests would cost Allison Shuren's clients a lot of money! It is her job, her professional responsibility, to protect those clients' interests.

And now there are kids everywhere with MIS-C, multi-system inflammatory syndrome. The child profiled in this NY Times piece died while "bleeding from his mouth, eyes and nose"...Picture that.

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/16/health/covid-children-inflammatory-syndrome.html

Shuren has a conflict of interest, and kids are dying from bleeding through their mouths, eyes, and noses. If Shuren approves these tests this can all end now. Vaccine rollout alone will be too slow and many people do not want to get vaccinated....need more "legs to this stool".

Please talk about this conflict of interest. It's an open fact. Jeffrey Shuren is conflicted, he should be removed and someone competent should approve these tests. This can all end within weeks.
