    This *schniff* reminds me of an episode of Star Trek: TNG

    I wish he hadn't been so goddamn resistant to the class struggle aspect of Parasite in their review. It was like he was trying hard to shut that shit down from the start of the discussion.

      I'm sure we all love our hack frauds from Milwaukee but I think we all agree we don't watch them for political analysis

        Red letter media is over of those channels saved by their intense hate for their own audience. But yeah I don't expect them to be anymore political than vaguely liberal.

          I really don't want to know what their true political views are, tbh. I'm afraid I won't be able to like them anymore if they, I don't know, come out as ancaps

              Jay seems like a lib. The last time we had this discussion on r/cth people dug up a chud rant about Tina Fey Mike posted on some forum ages ago...

                  I don't think Mike is conservative. Afaik he had a conservative upbringing and sometimes it comes through but then again sometimes he is more uneasy than the rest or more likely to react if something is racist/weird conservative shit. I'm pretty sure he's a lib that used to be a chud.

                  Also I'm pretty sure I read something somewhere about Rich donating 3 dollars to Bernie lol

                  EDIT: Jack is also a Bernie supporter afaik.

                Yeah I don't think Mike is a chud any more. But I know he had a conservative upbringing. The funny thing is that the posts people bring up also reference being mad about 9/11 jokes, and we all know where he stands on the issue now lol

        Sure, but he was straight tamping that shit down whenever it came up or was even hinted at. Like, honestly I don't hold it against him either way (I can sympathise with youtubers who deliberately try to keep shit apolitical as possible so they can stay afloat with the platform being shit), but it was a personal bummer that he went out of his way to no-sell it.

    Any version of Jay could get it, even the old sweaty nerd version. That's all I know about RedLetterMedia.

    @VolcelPolice I await being taken to the station for this observation.

        no the customer asks the waiter for coffee without cream, the waiter responds "sorry we're out of cream, would you like it without milk instead?"
