I've been forced to ponder this as well.skankhunt42 wrote:Was the Old Dan a fraud too?
Now hol up a little. You guys sound like the Obamabots early on. Dan jumped in his shot pretty early and he was getting killed for it. We always knew he kind of leaned lefty, this is nothing new. If Dan didnt want guff and argument then he should have shuttered this thing from the beginning. We had a home we didnt have to pay the bills be appreciative for that.

Personally, regardless of his reasons, I'll always compare the closing of the forums to a kid on the playground who lost and he's taking his ball and going home.
Because clearly, Dan wants to rail on Trump for the next 8 years and doesn't want people to come to his message board and see a different view point.
Dan should rename CS the Safe Space podcast. He sold out intellectually.
His brand is shilling for what exactly? The Old Dan was for a non politician President. Was the Old Dan a fraud too?

I can't reconcile the change either. Trump came out in the speech in which he declared his intention to run and said things that Dan had said in the first Common Sense episode I ever downloaded, "Trapped by the Inflexible Mind." That episode "woke" me, I suppose. I started devouring everything I could on the subject of economic globalization and it's effects on the working class.skankhunt42 wrote:So was it Dan Carlin's "people" (Agent, etc) that made him ultimately decide his own message board was bad for his brand, or was it the "Pro" Trump posting?

Trump so far is pulling an Obama, he used populism and is now rewarding the Rep part of the duopoly. Everything you said is accurate except for the part where you expect Dan to ignore the obvious hoping for a different outcome. He didn't do it with Obama and got completely crapped on by the left.Speaker to Animals wrote:The Dan Carlin one heard in episodes prior to around 2010, or thereabouts, certainly gave the impression that he would support Trump, if only strategically to destroy the duopoly establishment. In fact, he even opined in one episode that an outsider might hijack and take over one of the parties to ram through anti-corruption and economic nationalist policies. I wish I could remember the episode, but it would have been interesting to confront 2016 Dan Carlin with the earlier Dan Carlin and get him to at least admit he totally reversed himself.
This is complete gibberish. Just call me a lefty liberal and don't prevaricate.It seems the posters who seriously claim Dan Carlin remained consistent do so out the fact that they themselves identify to the left, and like most lefties, possess a maternalistic impulse to protect their herd.
