    Snyder is one of the guys that loser using LLMs to call the 1932 USSR famine a genocide cited. He’s been doing this pundit circuit for a while saying nonsense like this. Is that what led you to this video?

      Yeah, fuck that guy

      People say the democrats should be doing more, they should be fixing things. But if you want the Democrats to do things, you have to create the platform for them. You have to create the spectacle, the pageantry, the positive energy, the physical place where they can come to you.

      THE SENATE MINORITY LEADER ALREADY HAS A PLATFORM WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT

      what a fucking ridiculously stupid thing to say.

        Yeah the guy is a dum-dum. Academia is a special place. People compartmentalize like crazy, turning off the parts of their critical approach to thinking as needed. An example is when a young earth creationist gets a PhD in something biological. This also applies to every other field, including history. And it is actually more prevalent there, as funding and promotion mechanisms reward liberal apologists and anticommunism, but not young earth creationism. So this guy can do a bunch of highly specific historical work and do an okay job at it, get published, have students, etc etc, but also say the goofiest crap and get away with it because it is for a lay audience or at a conference with th3 Black Book of Communism guy. They are not hounded out, but are instead rewarded because this part of their work provides a baseline for the freedom burger eagle institute to continue villifying the left. And people like this control the peer review process.
