When I see Dave on tyt I just get hopeful. Thankfully Anna is obviously becoming more aware of her bias and really trying to be nuanced and I'm gonna say it. I think cenk is in turn also trying to listen, and that may be because of interactions like their debate and piers morgan conversations. I'm just happy to see the "progressives" hear out our small government idiology. And Dave is the best vessel for communicating these truths. It's like this, all of us want everyone to be treated equally, we also can't stand the war on drugs and more abdtractly understand that monopoly is evil and produces totalitarian control. But progressives don't seem to understand that it's not just corporate monopoly but it's also largely state monopoly. They tend to accept or even encourage less freedom and more laws and promote their absurd idiology of idk look at Venezuela and their history... It's quite obvious how government corrupts. I just hope this is a positive future where we can come together as humans. I'm very compassionate by nature and I oppose any violence period. So I'm sympathetic towards progressives and their intentions I just know that they are wrong about the solution. We thrive through competition and random auditing and it shouldn't be controlled by a governing body that can easily be captured. We are better off with the free market and property rights being forefront as well as social contracts and random third party auditing of auditing comlanies. You get what I mean? I'm trying to say that the people and nuance reign supreme and that balance is key to thriving. Idk just try and be open minded even if you clutch your pearls so strongly that you leave marx....

Why doesn't this version of Cenk show up 100% of the time on interviews and such? Because if this was the only exposure I'd had to his style, I wouldn't think he's a reprehensible twat. Problem is, almost everything I have seen of his he's openly trying to pick fights on other shows.

Watching a Jewish Doctor who volunteered to go to Gaza. He described removing sniper bullets from toddlers being purposely shot, seeing babies blown to bits. He described it as the worst scenes in his history. Bare in mind he had volunteered in many warzones and disasters.

[@KA-x2]

If you are libertarian then you have to vote Trump whether you like it or not and then in 4 years hopefully there are better choices

[@sixpackchad]

I think Dave holds the position that I would expect a lot of libertarians to hold: If you are only going to give me the option of Trump vs Harris, OBVIOUSLY I'm going to vote for Trump. Trump sucks too, he's just bad on a lot of issues that the Democrats are much worse on.,

[@troubadour0663]

Like what? I'm not gonna tell you to vote for either but tell me one issue if you actually are an liberitarian and not the alt-right bastardization of the term, which issue especially in foreign policy that Trump is better for your values than Kamala.

He sure will not have us in any war. That prospect alone could grab some swing voters. I'm still undecided.

@@curtisjordan5303 He continued the drone wars. And he stated publicly how we should take over Venezuela for the oil. So it seems you want to say, "he will allow the us war machine to continue killing people directly or indirectly on various fronts for resources, but he'll be super clandestine about it so as not to openly declare war on anyone and 'officially' send in troops."

[@josevillarreal6193]

​@ljmolly4029 did CNN and MSNBC tell you that is what Trump will do. Have you ever actually tried using your brain? Maybe do your own research on Trump and go to his campaign page to see what policies he plans. Instead you rather let the democratic party who didn't give you a choice to choose your presidential nominee. They literally said you are irrelevant and you will vote for who we put in for you. You don't get to pick who you pick. Now all of a sudden the stock market crashing is Trump fault because Kamala Harris said so. Vote blue no matter who durrrr
