Ep 1011: Not Sending Their Best
from The Professional Left Podcast with Driftglass and Blue Gal · host Driftglass and Blue Gal
Episode 1011 argues that the Fauci witch hunt and the White House Correspondents' Dinner were the same show: theater staged to give a cult desperate for a villain someone new to hate. Driftglass and Blue Gal use Poe's "The Masque of the Red Death" to describe legacy media pundits partying safely behind castle walls while the plague of modern Republican fascism finally breaks through the door. The episode names the psychological trap keeping disengaged voters stuck in "Yeah, but Democrats..." thinking, and exposes how devastating SNAP cuts are quietly starving hundreds of thousands of Illinoisans while being sold as "reform." It's about who the real cavalry is, why nobody's coming to save us but us, and why the midterms are the only thing that can pull the brakes on a car that no longer has any.Links for this Episode:Driftglass on The BradCast https://bradblog.com/?p=18314Driftglass on the Nicole Sandler Show https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozwmgb421eI Stay in Touch!
