The Young Turks

The Young Turks
Does anyone here watch and enjoy The Young Turks?

Here is the link to their YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheYoungTurks

Personally, I disagree with everything they say, when it comes to politics. For example: their denial of the Turkish Holocaust.

I just wanted to know what you guys thought of them.

Thanks!

Don't like em at alllllll. :/
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

I disagree with a hell of a lot on what they say, also they tend to have a smug self assured way of presenting things in a one dimensional way.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.

I only watch them rag on fox news. Good fun.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

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

Hahaha, yep! The way they talk is annoying to me too, it's not even just the content.
