I'd rather him apologize for turning up at that podcast at all
Let's not expect miracles...
I am not in the know here. What is the deal with that podcast?
The Critical Drinker is a notorious right wing grift YouTuber and podcaster.
Here is a video about him that explains more: https://youtu.be/2lgmvraCq1g
Fair enough. Not that I was watching the guy or probably ever would have but I'll definitely steer clear now.
Basically just one of the annoying anti woke crowd
Gross. Damn. It sucks that Weir was on there.
Seems he was exaggerating for a joke and basically saying that he was too dumb to grasp the political metaphors in Trek.
Crisis averted!
Meh
The way I see it, we have enough going on elsewhere in this timeline where I'm willing to settle on this compromise 😅
EDIT: Did not realize WHAT podcast he was on...
Is it an alt right podcast or something? I’ve never heard of it
Yes it is
Oh god fucking damn it....
Yep he's one of those culture warrior types. Honestly surprised he got Andy Weir on as I was under the impression he was relatively small potatoes in that space.
critical media consumption is dead, it's all slop for the slop trough
