I can only think of a solid like 3 times I’ve watched clips from TYT that weren’t just Ana focused. One was when Hasan said America deserved a specific event. And probably some other stuff.
Cenk’s reactionary viewpoints are different from what I’ve see. Like he hates homeless people and loves cops. Complains about other shit that right wingers have dragged into “political” discussions (things that shouldn’t be up for debate.).
I just know Ana has been on a bridge-burning expedition to the far right for years now and while Cenk definitely agrees on some stuff, he doesn’t come off as gung ho “this is my hill. I will die here.” His hill is “homeless people are homeless because they’re morally bad and should be rounded up and… not shot! No, no not that!” Even though that’s clearly something he leans towards but knows he can’t just say it or people will realize how shitty his pro-police, anti-people policy ideas are.
Maybe he doesn’t touch trans issues (much) because Ana has it nailed down for the show or because he’s uncomfortable, but she certainly doesn’t feel any discomfort. Just keeps blabbing for years too, nonstop, over the perceived grievance of allegedly someone one time calling her a “birthing person” in a medical context. She took that shit personal… for no apparent reason other than stirring up unnecessary shit. Even got Ben Shabibo to make a video about the terminology. Ben “my mommy I mean wife is a doctor” Shapiro ranting about medical terminology… peak irony, peak idiocracy, who knows anymore
Older than 20 years means the range 20 years to death. Which considering there are like 60M people over the age of 65 alone, and heart disease has been the biggest killer of Americans for decades, this isn’t surprising in the least.
We’ve done nothing to fix the healthcare system or the food system(s). Which both absolutely have to be socialized at least to the degree that everyone can have access to the same care and nutrition. They even quote a doctor who basically says this without saying it. Doctors, etc. can’t say socialize or nationalize else Ted Cruz will have a heart attack on the spot and Fox News won’t shut the fuck up for 4 years straight. (They still should say it though)
Emphasis mine in the quoted portion.
“I dunno Doc, sounding a bit commie there. What, do you want to just give poor people free medical care, nutritional information, and food so that they know how to avoid unhealthy foods and lifestyles and also can avoid them? Pfft. Sounds kinda commie! Next you’ll be suggesting people deserve the value they create and deserve time to rest instead of working their whole lives! Pfft! Oh wow, how convenient now you say overwork and stress also harm heart health!? Oh wow!”
