Post-Soviet Sluts: Dem Mainstreaming by Mark Ames to Jewish Mainstreaming by Yasha Levine - part 1

In these vids I'm focusing on two podcasts done in mid-late December involving ex-eXile Jewish alt-left journalists Mark Ames and Yasha Levine, two people I've been aware of for some time but not at all familiar with in terms of their work and socio-politics. The first podcast covered in the first two vids here is all about their former eXile cohort Matt Taibbi and his involvement with the Twitter Files, who they completely eviscerate as a neo-righty showing his true colors, and the second, which is a joint jaunt down memory lane on their eXile days, focuses on Ames' journalist history post-eXile. The question being explored here is who are these guys, where do they fit into the 21st century socio-political landscape - are they just gonzo versions of Dem progressivism, or is that a cover for something else?

This series will continue with a third podcast done by Yasha and Evgenia with her uncle, a Jewish Russian who doesn't seem to understand the required American Jewish socio-political narrative, what you should talk about and what you can't talk about.

Today's two parts finish up on the Ames-Levine discussion, focusing on the three dominant Jewish socio-political philosophies of neoliberal economics (the Summers stories), neoconservative foreign policy (the Obama-Kagan connection) and cultural Marxism (comparing the Tea Party/Koch Bros story with BLM/Soros) - on the latter I forgot to mention that Ames appeared on Ashkenocracy Now to discuss the right oligarch Kochs, a show which had already been funded with millions of dollars by the left oligarch Soros. After that I get into the podcast discussion with Evgenia's "Russian" uncle, which I think is very helpful in understranding the real history of Jews in Russia, as opposed to the manipulated story told in the US, mostly by Jews of course.
