552 - The Nephew Gap (8/23/21) by Chapo Trap House published on 2021-08-24T02:27:14Z We start off discussing Jeopardy!, Tesla Bots, and how all these conservative radio hosts keep dying of COVID. Then we talk about Tony Blair crying about Afghanistan and step inside Tom Friedman’s mind palace to explore the Taliban’s strategic cousin and nephew reserves. Comment by Four-Three-Five Recorder Friedman is losing his tiny, tiny mind. This column should be used in the sanity hearing to have Thomas Friedman committed, and I would prefer him to be kept in a Russian ex-Soviet insane asylum with Kazakh male nurses who speak no English. 2021-09-12T05:59:37Z Comment by Four-Three-Five Recorder They were riding on Americas shoulders in these "terror wars" and they could pretend that the Empire was still around. We are also leaving Iraq by the end of the year so this sniveling and whining will double by New Year's Day 2022. 2021-09-12T05:47:55Z Comment by Four-Three-Five Recorder It's all crying over spilt milk and today on 9/11 the dumbasses in the stadiums are still chanting "F--K Joe Biden" even though Biden saved some of them from the chance of joining the Army in the stock poverty draft we've had since 2002, with the smaller chance that they might have been wounded or killed in Afghanistan. 2021-09-12T05:44:29Z Comment by Four-Three-Five Recorder @ricaeach: 'Bot above this comment. 2021-09-12T05:11:11Z Comment by Four-Three-Five Recorder Remember when people thought that a cold-open Chapo meant "heavy stuff coming"? I do. 2021-09-12T03:35:56Z Comment by Graeme Scott How many people died because they took the advice of these creeps? 2021-09-01T02:08:09Z Comment by Redshift lol, ok bitchbois. calm down with the tiny dick energy, u don't wanna talk trash to real men. 2021-08-29T18:45:55Z Comment by jthadcast the vax was light speed, 1/10 the time, worked, and now it doesn't 2021-08-27T03:12:49Z Comment by jthadcast subconscious death drive aka the rapture 2021-08-27T03:05:10Z Comment by jthadcast idk imagine you are Israeli, just knocking back some goldstar beer killing some goyim with an uzi, all vaxed up only to die from delta or omega squad. the idea of a vax was good until you find there was an over the counter, penny a day drug that could treat you but you get covid and die in 2 days ... in the hospital. 2021-08-27T02:58:25Z Comment by miga the funniest thing about this is that "robot" actually comes from a slovakian word (robota) wich means "labor". before a czech author introduced it into science fiction during the 20s (the book's name is "Rossum universal robots") 2021-08-26T11:06:35Z Comment by Associate The vax hill on which they want to die. 2021-08-25T20:11:44Z Comment by Jacques Oeuf STFU you fucking idiot. https://www.unhcr.org/refugee-statistics/download/?url=7QCp6d 2021-08-25T16:59:41Z Comment by Jacques Oeuf Felix is mindbogglingly uninformed, and it's depressing that he's misinforming his radlib listeners like this. Last week he said that Sweden had never sent troops to Afghanistan, now he claims that the Brits haven't been there in years. The reason other countries feel betrayed is that they DO have troops there. Now the US withdraws without warning, creating absolute chaos. To see this framed like "stupid foreigners want the US to stay in Afghanistan for no reason lol" is enraging. 2021-08-25T16:58:09Z Comment by Mr. Braddock enormous progress had been made in afghanistan, all that will likely be lost without foreign aid, security etc. The Taliban will ruin that place once again. 2021-08-25T10:08:24Z Comment by Mr. Braddock what Felix just said isn't true 2021-08-25T10:03:57Z Comment by Robert Whitmer 1 man, speaking some hard truths 2021-08-25T06:21:49Z Comment by Graeme Scott Botswana! 2021-08-24T22:00:14Z Comment by Katherine Merrell give it to craig ferguson 2021-08-24T18:42:37Z Comment by andy9279 a crematorium on wheels 2021-08-24T15:13:53Z Comment by Kah Denn Trust me, as a Brit, I don't know why Blair is talking, literally nobody asked him. The conservatives in this country just need to be thrown into the Atlantic 2021-08-24T13:04:35Z Comment by CharlesCharley Matt's Feel Good Inc laugh 2021-08-24T11:07:14Z Comment by Jeffrey Milliman She shilled for snake-oil brain pills; that means she's qualified, right? 2021-08-24T10:48:44Z Comment by Bobberino123 favorite fake name yet 2021-08-24T04:29:50Z
