I highly recommend this podcast. He does a great job of differentiating what the different authors say and what are his own opinions. And he adds corrections to the episode when listeners point out his mistakes. The French, Haitian, 1848, and Russian revolutions really changed how I see the world. Be warned, they can hit dozens of episodes each.
The American and English civil war are OK, not Duncan’s fault, it’s just the non Anglo revolutions were better material IMO.

Did you see the cookie rocket debate? Very entertaining stuff.
most cringey clickbait thumbnails I’ve ever seen.
My man, is this the first YT thumbnail you’ve ever seen?
he’s for sure not someone the Joe Rogan crowd would be interested in watching.
Why, because popular YT formats are something the millions of normie Joe Rogan viewers all despise? I don’t know man, you do you. But popular formats by definition are something the masses are comfortable with.
The same Destiny that has alienated his personal relationships with everyone who’s ever cared about him?
The same Destiny threw a debate with shithead Ben Shapiro because he wanted to get invited back?
At least Joe Rogan believes the shit he shovels, Destiny is a pure grifter searching for more and more fame.
J Aubrey is a very entertaining long format YTer that explains many of the internet’s worst villains. His take down of grifters don’t target Joe himself, but help inoculate people from the “natural” hierarchies that dominate conservative thought.
Public opinions ain’t censorship bro.
I pay over $12k in insurance premiums a year. My child has to spend the night on the general floor because the ER wouldn’t let him go home after what ended up being a minor pneumonia. We only saw the nurse once, low acuity, respiratory techs only giving him inhaler puffs, probably the healthiest kid in the hospital. Got a $17k bill and they wanted over $4k from me after insurance.
Also found out if they didn’t charged my insurance first, my total bill would qualify for 90% off. But that is a double edge sword because my insurance has a max out of pocket each year. The US is broken y’all.
It rubs the genocide on it’s skin or else it gets the trump again.
Texas has significantly higher property taxes than California. So high in fact, many of the tech bros that moved out there and bought a million dollar home had a higher total tax burden even though California has higher income and sales taxes.
Don’t ever trust a cool guide to figure your taxes, just do the math yourself.
Also higher taxes can save you money in the long term if those taxes support things like infrastructure, education, and healthcare. Living in Texas, getting back 10-20% of your income back through lower taxes but receiving a fraction of the benefits of a social democracy in a Nordic country ain’t a fair trade for working people.
I’m white and I would never speak to the racism you have experienced. But I can tell you that conservatives are more likely to say racist shit about Mexicans around whites.
If you want to vote Republican, that’s your right. We live in a democracy, I don’t get too upset just because someone has a different POV. But stop lying and saying your vote towards a party full of openly racist politicians is actually the Democrat’s fault. No bro, conservatism is just your POV.
You make it sound like if people told Latinos they can’t vote for Democrats then they wouldn’t want to vote Republican anymore. But we all know that ain’t true. Grievances only go direction way in the USA, from the right.
The GOP is the party for people in a bubble that want to feign victimhood while oppressing working people who are actually the oppressed.
There’s a conservative Latino in my family who married a white karen, he’s always bashing other Latinos. It doesn’t matter what color their skin is, rightwing Republicans act the same in my experience.
These “why I left the left” grifters, if their prominences don’t lead reasonable people to believe how society engineered to stear us conservative. Then recall James Comey a couple weeks before the 2016 election. Which candidate’s investigation did he tell the world about, which did he stay mum on? Which investigation was BS, which one showed strong links to foreign agents?
Neoliberalism y’all, TSA’s equipment and all the services that go along with it are actually revenue streams invented by mega donors. The “free” market in action.
It’s not Israel, it is Western leaders, who act more like a Mafia boss that doesn’t get their hands dirty.
Our leaders aren’t politicians, they are a class of cosmopolitan billionaires from all around the world. Genocide is bad for business so they are trying to suppress the coverage. As that fails, I think a reckoning will happen to the Israeli leadership. See South Africa.
Why is it so important to you that it remain controlled by the Chinese Communist Party
That’s a lie. If it was under the control of the CCP it would never be this profitable. Governments don’t want the responsibility of operating a tech company, they just want all the user data which tech companies happily comply with. The US has been among the worst in user privacy.
Governments are the bad guys here. The US could protect it’s citizens, instead they project their own tyranny onto China. Patriotism is making you blind.
Younger voters views are a reflection of their media diet, no different than any person.
How much do you want to bet this young person has the exact same views as older Republicans? The problem with conservative families is they raise their young not to question authority, so it’s especially hard to deprogram the rot.
Don’t mock the young when it’s old cranks grooming the youth to believe GOP propaganda.
Why would I tell you I don’t vote? I’ve voted in over 25 elections in the last 8 years, nearly every election I qualify for.
I encourage people to vote all the time. I’m just pointing out some Biden voters are going to leave the presidential race blank in 2024 because Biden supports genocide. And that’s Biden own damn fault.
how about you stay out of a discussion with people who believe their votes DO matter?
You just told me I can’t criticize. Also the Electoral College absolutely disenfranchises most voters, I can’t believe I’m arguing with a fellow Biden voter that it doesn’t.
Continue blaming voters for Biden lackluster re-election campaign. If he continues this and loses, I’m sure the history books will give Joe a pass and blame all those voters he’s failing to enthuse.
You lost the plot, telling voters they can’t criticize a president while you sanctimoniously claim you are saving democracy. You really don’t see the problem with that?
American power only rewards those that don’t threaten it and punishes those that do.
The left is the last hope America has to reform anything in a positive direction, but sadly liberals would rather abide power than join the left and transform our collapsing system into a force of good.
