Early Access: Never Play Defense
Added 2017-11-28 03:24:00 +0000 UTCThis is an EXTREMELY ROUGH CUT of the next Alt-Right Playbook. It includes the following:
- poor audio quality
- volumes jumping all over the place
- text that doesn't match the narration because of revisions that haven't been recorded yet
- generally mediocre vocal performance
- weird pacing/flow
Despite the totality of flaws in this edit, it's not actually that hard to fix! I'll be doing revisions and recording the final audio tomorrow, and hopefully launching the video on Wednesday.
Enjoy this uggo version in the meantime!

Lol I actually first voted for Obama to spite my conservative dad. Well, okay, there was more to it than that, but my views on politics started out as a way to distinguish myself from my dad who I once hated.

2017-11-28 22:29:42 +0000 UTC"This whole thing is giving themselves arguments for why they don't have to listen to you." THIS! Pithy and like, spot on. Self-deception. Another brilliant instalment! Thank you!

2017-11-28 16:53:27 +0000 UTCWell put. I admit to partaking in this "get dunked on" culture on a nearly daily basis. Like ContraPoints, you're giving me a lot to think of when confronted with these kind of material online. But like Contra, unfortunately, we're a bit lacking in exactly how to deal with this without perpetuating bullshit or causing harm. I'm enjoying the serious introspection that we're going through but I'd like to see more exploration in what we *should* be doing to confront bigotry effectively.

2017-11-28 08:30:11 +0000 UTCI like the dramatic They Just Got Dunked On music you added to the end of the (I assume) West Wing clip. :D
