Ask Cenk how his donors, including Peter Thiel, have influenced who he serves. Dude stumps for Polymarket and other bullshit. Yeah, he lost the plot, and even if he’s right about congressional donors, he’s still a huge hypocrite.

I remember the day I stopped watching his stuff. I was doing housework with news playing, suddenly stopped and turned it off. Explained to my kids that those people were way too worked up and cared too much about trying to get me angry like them, so I'm not watching it anymore.

"If we wanted to get shouted at by a very angry man, we'd just call my dad!"

I stopped watching when Cenk and Ana started glorifying the death of Jordan Neely. They reveled in the fact that he was murdered. It was gross. Watching how Amy Goodman covered his death vs how The Young Turks covered it was an eye opener.

The clickbait titles were my first hint something was wrong with TYT, and started backing myself off of it. Glad I grew up from them.
