The Young Turks

[abaris]

I disagree with their progressive opinions.

Why am I not surprised?

Ana Kasparian, being an Armenian, does not obviously deny the "Turkish Holocaust".

Do you think I care?

You should care about being more accurate. What's with the attitude?

I'm personally rather fond of much of what I've seen on TYT, particularly the interviews with the police officers who admitted to the official corruption most of the country seems rather eager to pretend doesn't exist.

As far as smugness, I'd wager to say that you're not allowed to have a channel unless you're a bit smug, from what I've seen in general.

But Cenk has a special kind of smugness. When he was caught strawmanning Sam Harris, he went on air and recognized that he, indeed, did strawman him, and then explained that he wasn't going to apologize.

I meant that I don't care about a single view that Ana has, when so many of her other views I disagree with. That is like saying, well, Hitler did boost Germany's economy, so he isn't that bad.

And, I know that The Young Turks are not comparable to Hitler, but, hopefully, you understand my analogy.

The thing is, The Young Turks have flat out lied in several of their videos. It is not even their progressiveness that gets me, it is there intellectual dishonesty.
We could go over their lies one by one, but that would take several pages. I wouldn't mind though.

Yeh I agree with the last part.

I've seen some videos of theirs which really annoyed me if I ever come across them again I'll post them, I can't even remember why I was annoyed, I think the main guy presenting it was presenting a vague opinion as a valid fact and I disagreed with the opinion.

They are obnoxious, hypocritical, braying assholes. I can't stand them. Every time I listen to them I get the distinct feeling they have never listened to somebody with an opinion other than their own. Even their critiques of Fox news are just ripped off of the Daily Show. Plus they claim to be feminists and then use pictures of scantily clad women to promote their videos.

Have you heard of the youtube channel Atheism-Is-Unstoppable-4? I think you would agree with everything that he says, according to your posts.

No, and I doubt it.

Of course they lied. They care more about their agenda than they do about reporting truths.
