I like following American politics as because as an outsider it is good looking-in and a welcome distraction from the dull shitshow in this country.Anyone trying to gauge my political views from who I follow on the internet would be scratching their heads I follow as much content as I can because I really hate echo chambers.I purposefully watch as many varied sources as I can.Also a good approach to dead pooling. Social media echo chambers have played a really horrible distorting ugly role in modern politics and debate. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One time Jones appeared on Andrew Neil's Show (and iirc called Neil a leftie!). Neil says he went in quiet and polite, went in roaring mode as soon as they started recorded, and went quiet again as soon as the TV ended ie it's all an act. He's Katie Hopkins. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tend to agree. His impact is quite overblown. At the end of the day, liberals and conservatives are just authoritarian assholes screaming over which whip to use on everyone, anyway. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cerberus 302 Posted February 17, 2021 Was he well known in Britain? US politics/media isn't a hot topic in the UK generally, except at election time, but I'd never heard of him until I saw him on here last year. I only know of Alex Jones because search results get him mixed up with the Welsh TV presenter. No doubt he'll get an obit in the 'qualities' but I doubt that BBC or Sky news will mention him this evening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

America seems to produce many successful young entrepreneurs and business leaders but no one who has managed to successfully gather the centre ground of the country away from the more radical wings and create a real third force in its politics. A third party may happen anyway if Trump decides to set up a new party in his image and run again in 2024. The Republican party may forever rue the day they didnt press the impeach button when they had the chance. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

QuebecCityOliver 26 Posted February 17, 2021 Should we question Sean's inclusion of Max Clifford with two of the UK's worst serial murderers? Max was no Jimmy Savile. Maybe I have been gone too long from the UK but I am not sure I would have put Max in that company and if I did, I would happily add Rush or Alex Jones.

Cerberus 302 Posted February 17, 2021 OK well he was mentioned in passing just now on Sky News - but only in a short piece about Trump, who amusing still maintains that he won the 2020 election ("and Rush thought so too") Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 11,945 Posted February 17, 2021 Rush's family is longeve, he seems to be the exception. His grandpa lived to almost 105 and his uncle is still alive at 94. Bad luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
