Alright so full disclosure, I have never been a fan of Jimmy Dore. I find him to be one of most useless people on TYT. And I usually just ignore videos of their featuring him. And yes, for those that have been following this, he's said a lot of stupid stuff in the past that should have clued his fans in to how dumb he is years ago. Jimmy gets a lot of praise for being hypercritical of the Democratic Party/ DNC/ "The Establishment", and it's arguable this is how he brands himself and makes his bread. But some new video and audio has popped into my feed showing some next level stupidity.
This video is by Progressive Voice on YT. He usually has some pretty reasonable takes on things within the leftist YT sphere. He has made a few videos questioning specific claims Jimmy Dore made in the past, (about Seth Rich, the midterms, and Trump). But in this video he is finally brave enough to call out Jimmy Dore as ridiculous.
The video shows Jimmy Dore comparing the USA to post-WW2 Germany in a misguided effort to ask why the US didn't impose a ban on McCarthyist accusations just like Germany imposed a ban on the Nazi salute. Disregarding the facts that these two things aren't remotely similar and that the US has a first amendment ensuring free speech that Germany doesn't, this entire argument just shows how disconnected jimmy Dore is from his arguments. He never seems to follow them through to their logical conclusion in his mind before speaking. He just throws it out there because he thinks it will make him more liked by the anti-dem left.
The video is lengthy, but If you keep watching, you'll get to see Jimmy Dore go on RT and praise their viewership while making the same argument about IMPRISONING people that make accusations about others working for Russian interests.
What do you think? Why does TYT keep Jimmy on their (2nd string) show? Why does the Left tolerate this clown?
