I think he's inputing your wife's seemingly more normie beliefs onto you. Or somehow accusing you for her opinions. Which he may be misinterpreting. You're right parasocial bullshit.

I’m not even sure what OPs comment means. I’m not anti-duopoly in what sense? We pretty much only talk about how democrats are genocidal. Take that weird parasocial shit to tumblr.

I made a comment on Taibbi's substack, overwhelmingly thought as beyond the pale, referencing his wife's work as a pediatrician and her insight into the medical issues he was discussing as a journalist. Yeah it's fair game but it's still a low blow.

Cory

I struggle with these thoughts as well.

You'll find a lot of the same "hating Palestinians as rebellion against Islamic societies" on r/exmuslim, since supporting Palestine has been such a celebrated cause among Muslims for so long

Scott Grabel

So if we go by 23andMe, Manchester is a more legitimate identity than Palestine.

I think relatives are fair game if they’re influencing the otherwise great politics of this show.

Mixed marriages are hard. I say that jokingly but you can't reduce all of this to interpersonal disagreements on a tactical level that won't ultimately impact anything. I don't know what's going on there and neither do you. It's time to give some grace. (LOL I can't figure out how to phrase this comment without being offensive to everybody involved ) It's not productive to invoke the intimate relationships of our podcast hosts. The people I am closest to, by birth and by choice, are some of the people I disagree with most strenuously.
