Michael Moore's Anti-Trump Film, Fahrenheit 11/9, Is Unhinged And Absurd. He actually claims that Gwen Stefani is the reason Trump ran for president. He actually shows historical footage of Germany to compare Trump and his supporters to the people then. The film is an attempt to cater to the modern left but Moore seems at odds due to his anti-globalist stance and his support for globalist Democrats. It becomes difficult, in my opinion, for Moore to support illiberal social justice reactionaries and white working class union members at the same time. The base in the US seems split with the forming of a new left and a new right and Michael Moore right in the middle struggling to stay with a left that has left him behind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCkSAtqt2LY&index=2&list=PLxQaod7tWvYKPWKxGRRL1yf78WdyBRuvD&t=0s Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices.

What is making most women become democrats? There are many reasons people have. For one they feel Trump has been too disrespectful to women. Many others believe that Democrats support of social justice and feminism is what is causing it. However there are studies showing that marriage is a big factor in whether women are democrat or republican. Divorced women tend to become democrat and women become republican upon getting married.

We are in what is called the Cold Civil War. The partisan divide has been growing steadily since the beginning of the decade and we can now actually see just how bad it is based on Pew Research data. Carl Bernstein said we are looking at the great battles of the cold civil war. Historical moments that will be looked back upon. But did this really begin with president Donald Trump? Will it end if the democrats win? Or will our country continue down an authoritarian path regardless of who is in power? Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices.

New allegations have been made against Brett Kavanaugh and they are some of the most insane things I've ever heard. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they aren't true but man does this sound ridiculous. Many are now demanding that the confirmation hearing be postponed or even canceled as they feel these claims against Kavanaugh should disqualify him for SCOTUS but some believe that the claims are so absolutely ridiculous they can't possibly be true.

Proof of the Deep State has been exposed! At least if you follow Project Veritas as this is what they claim in a series of videos documenting members of the Democratic Socialists of America doing work inside the government. But is it really proof of the "deep state?" These people working in government appear to be engaging in unethical and maybe even illegal activity but they aren't necessarily high ranking members of intelligence angencies. However, this doesn't mean that O'Keefe is wrong. Veritas is showing us that, yes, there are people within the federal government who are working to "destroy capitalism" Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices.

A study was published falsely linking me to channels I have never interacted and included me in a list of "far right reactionary" channels.

Fake news often uses social justice to deflect criticism but this only works when talking about abstract concepts and intangible subjects. When the Verge built a PC wrong they got called out, the producer tried to use some kind of social justice defense but it just doesn't work when we can actually see just how your video was misleading and factually incorrect.

Venezuela just enacted a 3,500% increase to salaries and are not allowing businesses to increase the cost of goods and services to cover the increased wages. This is resulting in 40% of businesses simply shutting down due to an inability to function. Many people in the US advocate for higher minimum wages but there are those who say simply increasing wages will only hurt and not solve any problems. Recently Alexandria Ocasio Cortez lamented the closing of her old job, however the coffee shop closed because they couldnt cover the cost of increasing wages, something that Cortez actually supports. Will increasing the minimum wage help or hurt in the long run? Unfortunately current data is conflicting. Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices.

Recently at a conference the Dalai Lama, a renowned spiritual and world leader, said that "Europe Belongs to Europeans" and that refugees should go home and rebuild their own countries. The comment was made following large gains by Sweden Democrats, who are considered to be Sweden's "far right party" Naturally this comment sparked outrage with people calling the Dalai Lama a "bigot of the first order" due the comments similarities to nationalist talking points.

A new law would require companies to maintain a minimum amount of women on their corporate boards. Many argue that discrimination is keeping women out of STEM fields while others argue that men are just more interested or more likely to take these jobs. Regardless of why, California has passed a bill mandating companies promote and hire women to their boards. Is this just social justice gone too far or are women really being held back by discrimination that a feminist push could alleviate? Was this the right move or will it just make things worse?

A google video leak shows just how biased they really are but even after numerous examples of social media being biased against conservatives Republican politicians do almost nothing to combat this. A new forecast from Nate Silver shows that Democrats will take the House. As republicans ignore the bias from massive tech giants they are free to push far left ideology unabated. So long as "social justice warriors" and the far left reap benefits from these tech companies they will never call them out for manipulating public discourse.

Norm Macdonald's appearance on the Tonight Show was canceled because he made tepid comments about the MeToo movement. All he simply said was that it was good that things slowed down because some innocent people have faced the brunt of false allegations. Some say this is Social Justice Warriors going to far and others say he made rude and "ton-deaf" comments and should have his Netflix show canceled. But for me, This story , Aziz Ansari's Story, Hardwick's story, and The Asia Argento Scandal say to me that things have gone too far and need to be criticized.

A comic was published depicted Serena Williams as having a temper tantrum and people are decrying the comic as a racist caricature. But what exactly makes it racist? We are now even hearing that umpires may boycott Serena over her sexism claims after the US Open Final.

Serena Williams broke the rules and was penalized for it but she says that men get away with breaking the rules all the time. Following the match she decried what she says is sexism and many agree. However when I look into archives I can see that Serena has a history of bad behavior, men do get penalized, and so do other women. Why would this incident be worse than others? Is this an incident of unreasonable feminist "social just warriors" in action or a just and honorable call out of bigoted behavior from the ump? Sexism in Tennis does exist and we have even seen recent examples, but is it fair to say this incident was the same? Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices.

Vox typically takes the stance that differences in race based statistics are due to environmental factors. But in the past they have published a few op-eds that argued in favor of race realist beliefs but simply argued they were morally wrong to pursue. We have had a few issues of political take downs of scientific articles in the past week or so and this led me to look at why the Left would push for articles to be unpublished. It would seem that even though they might agree with the science they view it as morally wrong. Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices.

Nike sales are up and people are claiming that this is proof they did the right thing with hiring Colin Kaepernick. But market research data shows that ALL demographics, even democrats, view Nike less favorably following their campaign. The controversy may have resulted in a temporary sales increase but this may be due to tribalists buying products to show support. It would seem that by entering the culture war on the side of Social Justice they have only damaged their image in the long term. Even among Democrats Nike favorability has declined. They sacrificed their entire Republican base on this campaign and even Gen Z and the Democrats have pulled back. Support the show (http://timcast.com/donate) Learn more about your ad choices.

Alexandria Ocasio Cortez has been called the future of the Democratic Party. Cortez is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, a group that calls for an end to private profit and end to capitalism. Many people don't understand that under socialism you do not control the fruits of your labor, rather the state or collective gets to decide where your value gets put. Without private profit the individual cannot decide what they get to purchase or trade. Understanding this we can see that many people do not actually look at the values of the DSA and what they advocate, if they did many people would likely not align themselves with the group as most Americans, even on the left, are Capitalists.

News outlets are reporting that Fox news reporters have quit over "Trump" support and the direction of the network. However upon some digging you can easily see this is a lie. One reporter quit because he felt the network was doing too much opinion and there wasn't enough funding for real journalism and another simply quit to spend time with his family. The mainstream news reporting this have been caught lying but the question is why are they lying? Probably because they want partisan fuel, they want to smear Fox news and Trump as not being real news. Unfortunately for them, Fox News is the number one cable network right now.
