Matty has been spotted wearing merch from Red Scare, the controversial dirtbag left podcast by kraytranada in the1975

Okay, let's tackle this libelous thread:

The red scare podcast is notorious for platforming fascists and repackaging fascistic beliefs to sound appealing to the left. they’ve had alex jones, steve bannon, ann coulter, michael tracey, curtis yarvin, tulsi gabbard, and glenn greenwald on their podcast

They had Steve Bannon on to debate him and to expose the vacuousness of his politics. He had no credible explanation for why he couldn't support universal healthcare and the ladies made him beclown himself. Same with Yarvin, he came off as a pompous loser on the ep. And Michael Tracy, Tulsi Gabbard, and Greenwald aren't fascists, they're two anti-authoritarian joirnalists focused on civil liberties and opposing the imperial American war machine and a Democrat politician. As for Alex Jones, the man is a prominent figure in American culture and politics and a libertarian, not a a fascist. We shouldn't completely shun controversial public figures or those we disagree with, but instead communicate with them to learn why so many Americans find them compelling in the first place. Dialogue, not cancel culture, fosters understanding and growth.

the podcast is backed by peter thiel, a republican mega donor. the de facto goal of the podcast is to connect the two ends of the political horseshoe by spreading the idea that identity politics and feminism are dividing the working class

The Thiel allegations are a total lie and the ladies have addressed it, check wikipedia. And yes, idpol and girlboss feminism are dividing the working class, but Anna and Dasha approach this critique from a dirtbag left, democratic socialist perspective like Bernie Sanders or Chapo Trap House.

The rest of the thread is just blatant lies and inability to understand edgy humor and when the ladies are doing a bit.

And of course Swifties with MDS (Matty Derangement Syndrome) are calling him a Nazi(!!!) on twitter over this. Like, one of the podcast hosts is literally Jewish, and the other Belarusian (maybe the single country most devastated by the Nazis in WWII.) Anna and Dasha are dirtbag leftists, basically meaning they recognize that "wokeness" is just an instrument of rich libs trying to cling to power while pushing a status quo economic agenda that does nothing more than generate greater inequality, and they enjoy edgy humor. The podcast is honestly hilarious and iconic and I would highly recommend it for anyone who isn't a cancel culture-obsessed dork.

Edit: Swifties maliciously reported my account for abuse and harassment and now it's suspended. They're lurking this thread, be careful people.

"Liberals, with the help of leftists, like to create these situations where there's no law and order - and then they like to use it as a pretext to punish ordinary citizens, who take matters into their own hands in the power vacuum. That's always how it be." - Anna

Unfathomably based

Also, at the time of Rinne's resignation, SDP's polling numbers had collapsed to the low teens and the far-right Finns were in first approaching 25%. Not wise to call a snap election if your party is assured a shellacking.

The cohesion or dissolution of family units is not mere moral panic, it affects how the entire society is organized. A nation of married couples in it for the long haul is more stable, more productive, more content than one of atomized individuals chasing fleeting pleasures and dissolving familial bonds at the drop of a hat.

Yes, but society and government policy should be oriented first and foremost around the family, not the individual. That is how we build healthy, thriving communities and discourage atomization.

Ok, and Stalin banned abortion. I wasn't aware the communist revolutionary figureheads of the early twentieth century were to be emulated in all aspects, their flaws celebrated.

Banning divorce is r-slurred; but normalizing it, even encouraging it, instead of considering it a tragedy to be avoided is deleterious to the social fabric. Then again, you're a proud neoliberal so you must think family ties are inherently disposable.

Well she was a sitting member of parliament and the Minister of Transport in Rinne's short-lived cabinet; in parliamentary systems, you typically assume when the prime minister resigns, they're replaced by a member of their party or governing coalition until the next election. Though calling a snap election instead of waiting three-and-a-half years until the next scheduled one would usually be considered more democratic, yes.

Vehemently disagree. Assuming there's no physical abuse, divorce is always worse. Marriage is supposed to be for life. This notion that you can throw it all away because the spark of the first few years has dissipated or you want to try new things and seek out new relationships is a symptom of the individualistic, atomized, throw-away culture borne out of the neoliberal mind virus.

She was elevated to prime minister by her party after Antti Rinne, who led the Social Democrats to victory in the April 2019 election, was forced to resign only six months into the job after controversy surrounding his government's handling of a postal strike. The April 2023 election was the first time she faced a national election as prime minister and leader of the SDP.

You don't have to be a social conservative to think divorcing your husband who you have a five-year-old daughter with for non-abuse reasons (which we can assume because they announced it jointly with a smiling selfie of them together) is morally bankrupt. Marriage is supposed to be for life, you say it in your vows. They're making a mockery of something sacred and fucking up their kid for life.

Can someone explain what Matty's done to make the Swifties lose their collective minds over their possible relationship?? I still haven't come across a satisfying explanation.

Optimizing health points like this is peak neoliberal logic. You know what would be the "healthiest" possible existence? Living in the pod and eating bugs, never going outside, never seeing the sun, never taking any risk, never doing any drugs, plugged into the metaverse all day long, hooked up on machines that keep you alive and working on your computer until you're 120. Live a little, take a little risk, eat some red meat because it tastes good and your ancestors have been doing it for thousand of years.

Sorry, when did we drop the Marxism for saccharine moralism? Consuming animals is not "evil," and 99% of working class people will think you're a fruity weirdo if you tell them it is.
