To be fair, Hitchens wrote the trial of Henry Kissinger specifically as a criminal prosecution against kissinger.

Nothing was debunked

The show ended up worse than the ads...repugnant. Krazinski is creating a brand out of this. clown.

Very inspiring and insightful.

Talking about laws of logic while stating confidently tht Jef Bexos wants to have child labur and the only thing stopping him is a law and that he has no moral compss of his own and that it couldn't possibly align with the concept of not having child labour if it were financially beneficial to do so. It's such a typical lefty way to dehumanise others. If Jeff cannot be swayed by any moral arguments as they claim, then is he really a human? Are there humans with no conception of morality? That can never be swayed? No. So, they are dehumanising him, which is an open door to killing him.

Miss ya, Michael.

I guess she found her turning point issue...

Delightful

Always a good time.

Listening to these four nitwits talk about the brilliant and iconic Christopher Hitchens is laughable. More talent and intellect in his left nut than these dumb dumbs. LMFAO

People who like 2 chainz, Nas, A$AP Ferg and Meek Mill are not gonna like Logic. He is so lame.

Oh how Michael would be so heartbroken today 😢😢😢

KZbin never foregrounds this clip.

good god Matt Lech is just beautiful, I can't

Most people regard Gulf War 1 as far more justifiable than 2003's invasion of Iraq, so this just feels ironic now. While I was against the 2003 Iraq War, Hitchens made a decent case for it when he spoke. The fact that the outcome was extremely poor does not necessarily mean that the removal of Saddam from power was a doomed idea from the start. Surely, more thought into who and what would replace Saddam and his regime should have occurred prior to invasion. Even if more thought had been applied to the situation, I have a hard time imagining a truly positive outcome of *any* invasion of Iraq. Despite this, I sometimes wonder how things might have gone if we had, at the very least, ditched the idea of de-Baathification. As for why Hitchens went from "Neither Washington nor Moscow, International Socialism" to "Washington after all," I can only offer the possibility that he grew up.

I wish I had Farrakhan's wardrobe. So I could sell it, put the proceeds in a high-yield savings account, and live the rest of my days comfortably on a beach somewhere.

Red Dawn was only a case where the "commies" invaded Las Vegas, NM

Rest in power Michael. Facebook has gotten rid of moderation so I've had the opportunity to introduce a whole new crowd of people to " Be ruthless with systems, be kind to people."

I miss this Ana Kasparian.

❤

Friedman was a sofist of the big corporations.

So the true identity of Gordon Gekko was Milton Friedman.

I miss Michael! Rest in power!

This is so good. Political commentary is so stale and repetitive until you listen to something like this. Sutt’ and Mi’ Brooks don’t just bemoan the gatekeepers but discuss metaphorical lock-picking all the doors slammed in our faces. Left is best!

Never forgetting this Michael 😢😢😢😢

Love u brother...rest in power legend!!!!!! We live for you.

my goat talking about my other goat. miss you michael, and long live thomas sankara! 🕊️

This is a echo of a golden age. Mi’ Brooks was so smart and nice. And at the drop of a hat turn into a brilliant TROLL like we haven’t seen outside Bill Burr. Unfortunately Bill’s act will often be “I thought a lot about this conspiracy theory but it’s wrong. Spectacularly wrong or else this won’t get an immediate laugh.” Bill’s interviews reveal that like a sane-conspiracy-theorist he largely agrees with Karl Marx: money looks after money and people are fucked. Obviously that sounds different in Marx’s native language, proletariat and bourgeoisie, etc.

Why is this channel still running ads? Sam's Ju-ness knows no bounds.

My God that’s good banter. Insulting the goober with zero hostility.

Unlike most "youtubers" you really got the sense that michael was a prolific reader when he spoke. His words seem prophetic but only because he had a thorough understanding of history and accedemic thought. Most of the ideas he presented were not new or unique but suppressed and long forgotten by most.

Miss you so much brother. 🫂

Thank you for continuing to share these episodes with us. Please keep them going.

rest in power Michael, miss you every day. Such an unexpected crossover to see this interview with Adam Friedland come up in my algorithm. This shit would all be so much more manageable if you were still here with us to guide us and give us some good jokes. Hope we don't let you down and that there is a heaven for you to look down on us from. x

This comment section is flooded with ret4rds, their combined IQ wouldn't pass 80

Damn Ben's song was fire.

This is very important work - thank you Mr Brooks! Many African people don’t quite understand this history, in fact most of the Global South does not and many fall for the close to 100 years of anti-communist, “freedom and democracy”, neoliberal propaganda of the US-Led imperial west. Bless up this man and share this channel. It needs at least 1 million subs

Jesus, these replies. I can't believe this tedious Hitchens whitewashing was still going on in 2020. "Context, context. How dare you compare Daddy Hitchens to Peterson, he only defended torture for 8 years, he was forced to be a neocon, you see" He was Islamophobic, plain and simple. He died just before the West succumbed to a wave of Christian fascism that may very well end the world, and the threat he focused on was Islamic crusades which didn't materialise at all. Whoops. Especially since it was that same fear of Muslims that brought these fascists to power in the West. Nu Atheism is a failed experiment, and it's about time you admitted it. It was all about smugness and not an ounce of the empathy that good projects like TMBS are founded on. Of the big 4, only Dennett hasn't turned into an anti-data reactionary. All the big 2014 Nu atheist channels, like Carl Benjamin and Tim Pool, are now basically theocrats. What a legacy of failure.

Man I really miss this guy. Such a loss for the left. I would love to hear Michael’s perspective on where we’re at today.

Jesus. Saagar was a dork even then.

How did he die?

Be ruthless to systems, be kind to people. ❤❤❤❤ left is BEST! ☮️☝️💙🌍

You should post a seperate clip of the Night before Christmas one and post it in time for next year! Miss Michael so much, we need his voice so badly right now

👌👌👌

30:52 😂😂😂😂

God- Michael learning of Dave’s Russian funding would have been too perfect. RIP.

After Michael died Ana lost her way and the online left fell apart. He really was the glue for all this.
