Well ... I was surprised to see him flip so blatantly and quickly.
But I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt, so I'm easily taken in by folks who make the effort to misrepresent themselves. Still, rather give someone too much rope than hang them prematurely.
I can say I didn't really have a political identity that I could consciously say this ideology I agree with pretty well (Classic Liberalism) But I will also admit openly when I've changed my mind or feelings on a subject, and I certainly won't continue to claim to be middle of the road.

There are certainly business reasons for a podcaster to claim Switzerland status, but if your taking Nazi Gold and ignoring the holocaust, I gotta call you out on it.

I don't know if I've ever heard Hedges admit that, but I'll take your word for it.

Regardless he plays as a man of the people while telling us giving more power to the Socialists in charge is the answer.
his analysis of the problems is good

his analysis of the solutions, not so much
:lol: Very True

I don't see it that way today. I admit I was fooled that the guy was genuine. But he was genuine only in the Chris Hedges sense. He lays out true problems, but can only see one villain because he's been on that side all along.
That's not fair to Chris Hedges

Chris Hedges admits his bias

Dan Carlin pretends to sit on the fence, like CNN

while still being heavily biased

Hedges is authentic, Carlin is a phony


the left is good at identifying problems

but is terrible at identifying solutions to those problems

Carlin and Hedges are alike, in that regard
I don't know if I've ever heard Hedges admit that, but I'll take your word for it.

Hedges is what was called in 19th century America : a Christian Socialist

he is in the tradition of the Liberation Theology

like the Pope is also that, the Pope is the Socialist Pope

now, Hedges was in the war, he has gone to the front lines, risked his life to be a war correspondent

so I can respect that, and he also knows who is who in the zoo on the battlefield

but you know, I am a conservative Christian, so at the point where Hedges lines up with his idol Noam Chomsky ?

that's where he is lost to Christ

he is more of an intellectual social "Christian" than he is a true believer in Christ

you don't need socialism when you have Christ, saying that Christ was some sort of government socialist, is the essence of Popery

Here's Hedges outright lying about Antifa. He says they disenfranchised by capitalism. He's critical of them, but makes excuses for them, painstakingly explaining why the need to exist while the entire time ignoring how well funded by big business they are funded.

IMO, not very Christian and disengenuous.

I don't favour him being cancelled and forced to go on RT tho

like I bet Tucker Carlson would have Hedges on TCT, just to hear his point of view

it's Hedges who would refuse the invitation

it's not Tucker who refuses to listen to Hedges, it's Hedges who refuses to listen to Tucker

No, absolutely not. I'm 100% Free Speech. This is a personal thing for me. I recognize how I misread Carlin because he pointed out a lot of good shit. I see the same in Hedges. I just won't fool myself that he is going to speak for me and that it's not the message I want to promote.

If anyone wants to see more, here's Hedges talking about how much he loves BLM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEuZjU1LKdQ
To Hedges, burning down the Autozone is about fighting systemic racism and should continue.

Hedges likes to see victims, which is standard Marxist dogma. I have no personal animus against the man, and I do listen to him from time to time. As we've said here, he's good at pointing out issues.

it's not that Jesus Christ would do endorsements for Donald Trump

but I bet Jesus Christ would be in the crowd marching into the Capitol Building to throw the money lenders out of the temple

God is the ultimate right wing nutjob

the right is towards God himself

you can't get right with God from the left, it's a paradox

Compared to Biden, I think he would have voted for Trump...

Right On.

And this is where we need to get away from the two party, Left v Right argument. I'd love to get Hedges on board. Here's a great clip of him exposing the Biden Admin.


We can't be arguing either fascism or socialism is favorable, that's its just big business capitalism or its just Marxism. It's us against the tyrants. The Tyrants do a great job of funding division, in both political parties and on the street.


In Praise of Hedges: Hedges runs a prison college education program that has been very successful. That is a very Christian thing to do.

I don't believe that Christ would vote

I don't think God is democratic

you either come to Him of your own free will, or you don't

you are becoming a soul, something beyond four dimensions, for the next world

if Christ is amongst us, he's probably in amongst the homeless in the tent camps

God is seeking a relationship with you when he comes in the form of Christ, he doesn't go to the Vatican to talk with the Pope
