  2. ***** it's crazy what they did at the DNC. how they tried to silence sanders supporters by killing the lights in that part of the arena, confiscating signs, and pumping out white noise to mute their chants. and this naive foreigner thought americans prided themselves on free speech so ironic lol

  3. spot on analysis. with the world in the shape that it's in, it's pretty fucking selfish to have children, even if you're having kids for their sake and not your own
    4
  4. It's actually government in this case, not the church; religious nut jobs, or rather just straight up nut jobs in gov't.
    4
  5. what a fucking doofus. ana is spot on
    3
  6. Devildog0166 i'm an anarchist, yet it's obvious to even me that obama's observation that way in which the "question" was framed was poor as hell.

  7. Supernova Kasprzak exactly. deals between two unique parties usually involve compromises on both sides of the fence.

  8. Tangerine Farmer media vs politics, not sure which realm is more despicable.
    3
  9. because they like conflicts of interest

  10. Turkey is a democracy? That's like calling the U.S. a democracy! Get with it. There's not a single legitimately democratic country in the world today.
    3
  11. maybe trump's entire campaign is satire and you just don't get it becuase your iq is a single digit?

  12. too bad the bitch didn't use her position to stop the implementation of the TSA in the first place...
    2
  13. and yet he was/is right...
    2
  14. James Watker and what about all the shenanigans that took place at the DNC? and about the DNC favouring Hillary?
    2
  15. James Watker why else would the more popular democratic candidate mysteriously drop out? u got a better explanation

  16. as per posting naked pictures of people without their approval, ultimately there shouldn't be any problem here. people need to learn to take responsibility for their actions. if you decide to film yourself having sex or take naked photos of yourself, well, there's a good chance that film or those photos can and will show up on the internet for everybody to see. making this sort of shit illegal, or penalizing people for uploading this type of stuff, only detracts from an individual's capacity for responsibility.

  17. The US gov't doesn't want to get rid of the drug war and legalize drugs because, not only would it strip cartels of their clout but, since the US gov't is also a cartel, doing so would amount to the US gov't giving away much of its authority and power over American citizens. The difference between drug cartels and the US gov't, or any gov't for that matter, is insignificant and the distinction is meaningless.

  18. you can't kneel during the national anthem without worrying about whether or not you'll be suspended? `land of the "free"`, yeah? LOL
    2
  19. Little man in a canoe bahhahahahah
    2
  20. 'undesirable nudity' which means 'guys with their dongs in their hand' like you often see on roulette chat, which is why i'll never use that shit ever again
    2
  21. There's actually a few other states, eh
    1
  22. Serves him right, although it should have been the real victim who had to shoot the thief. Either shoot the thief or let him steal your property.
    1
  23. ...because you just accept what mainstream news says at face value without questioning their credibility or any possible affiliations they might have which would compromise their credibility.
    1
  24. I would be more surprised if the brothers did actually plant and detonate the bombs, and much less surprised if somehow the gov't or some gov't faction or intelligent agency was implicated
    1
  25. But most presidents were warmongers
    1
  26. This is one of the worst commentaries on TYT. Way to misconstrue everything Paul says...
    1
  27. His integrity is definitely questionable, but that doesn't detract from the integrity of his statements.
    1
  28. "... no questions asking (not even thinking), order following and obeying creature." That description sounds a lot like any citizen of basically every government, and especially almost every member of every army.
    1
  29. i think this is fascinating, but i can so see the gov'ts feeling threatened by or having problems with this, because theyre control freaks
    1
  30. the victim is the only loser, whereas both parties that did something wrong, the woman beater and the cops, both virtually receive impunity
    1
  31. do you two deliberately try to look like one another or is it just one giant coincident?
    1
  32. is ana pregnant? her tits look bigger!
    1
  33. Javin Gibson i know...
    1
  34. Deny. Denial. Trial. Liar. We are the most transparent government in history. We have never used drones on American citizens. Delusional. Schmoozer. I lie to you and myself but I am the most honest president in the last two hundred years, hands-down. Please just look at my birth certificate. I am here to protect the constitution and you. FEMA? What's that? Ohhh, you mean femur, as in femur bone. Yeah, of course. I mean we all have room for one of those. Yada. Yada. Lie. Yada. Another lie.
    1
  35. That's a humongous generalization.
    1
  36. Good for the guy/company suing everybody! He's doing everybody a favor by showing how absurd the whole system is.
    1
  37. UNLEASH THE DRAGON!
    1
  38. "that's a bad news" lol cenk went italian our ass
    1
  39. if there was a god, israel would be the first country s/he took a dump on
    1
  40. what a story. how fortunate for buddy
    1
  41. its value is determined by the people's faith/belief in it, just like fiat currencies
    1
  42. he must have bought at the very very least 1k bitcoins... there's no way
    1
  43. It's a great idea, obviously, affording its people an opportunity to follow their passion.
    1
  44. "My dad always told me,'"Believe half of what you see and none of what you hear.'" So basically she shouldn't believe his statement?
    1
  45. So basically what you are saying is that the function of a human is to work?
    1
  46. I couldn't agree with you any more.
    1
  47. "accidents twice as severe" how do you even fucking quantify something like that? lol so weetodded
    1
  48. I would care less if he smokes crack in his spare time, IF he approached his job properly and professionally. However, an ELECTED public official blatantly lying to the entire country... This is an offense, a violation that should be punishable with prison time. Simple as that.
    1
  49. I'm pretty sure that, notably, he's actually saved Toronto quite a bit of money.
    1
  50. that's EXACTLY what we should do, something like a drafted council. scrap presidencies, and we should have a drafted council, say, of 500 people, with one year terms each, perhaps with, say, an elected parliament for secondary oversight if needed
    1
  51. you can't create a net worth of 10 billion dollars or more, let alone 40 mil, if you actually have a soul. the two things are simply incompatible with one another.
    1
  52. Her husband is attracted to a model and posts a joke about it online? What a crazy woman, literally.
    1
  53. 6 years of probation is exactly what i was thinking; slightly less than half the prison sentence, which he would have already served if they didn't fuck up. but anna's right, they should be punished for their clerical error; shit, they should be punished just for imposing their so-called order on everybody else
    1
  54. It would be so useful for warfare in certain terrains.
    1
  55. Crazy cool
    1
  56. Maybe if they smoked a joint, none of those things would have happened?
    1
  57. who filmed the first part when she was making the call? this seems like it could be part of a psyop
    1
  58. How ironic, the cop shoots the kid twice, ultimately murdering him, and while the kid's dying the murderer is pleading for his victim's survival.
    1
  59. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.
    1
  60. I swear those numbers are fabricated to upkeep the appearance of a government acting, of course, only in favour of the majority.
    1
  61. Cenk, please speculate more.
    1
  62. He wouldn't go blow up a bunch of shit with explosives, if he believed that 9/11 and the Oklahoma bombings both were inside jobs. Why would you do something like this to discredit your own beliefs or the very movement or ideas that you believe in. That doesn't make any sense at all. Boston bombings is another inside job...
    1
  63. Love the shameless plug at the end.
    1
  64. drugs should be legal tho!
    1
  65. LOL what a waste of potential. 2 beautiful girls. at least their inmates will be stoked
    1
  66. I concur :D
    1
  67. Crazy fucking people out there, sending this kid death threats for communicating with a twitter account affiliated with North Korea. What the fuck is wrong with people nowadays. Sorry, excuse me language :)
    1
  68. If you've got the free time to accompany your little girl while she's at school all day, you should be educating her yourself! I bet the mom went to a public school...
    1
  69. ... Considering that, it's only logical that America "brings the war home" by declaring that its own territory is swamped with terrorists or by declaring that its populace, or rather anybody who is in disagreement with their government's behavior, is a terrorists. ADDITIONALLY, you misread buddy's comment because you seemingly can't comprehend or understand the word 'likely'. You see, the difference between him and you is that you speak with absolute certainty, while he's obviously undecided...
    1
  70. Government factions in the sense that such entities act above and beyond the law with absolute impunity due to their close relations to political bodies... But anyhow, you can start by reading about Operation Northwoods, which more relevant than not to present day America. You know what I find funny? The fact that America never goes any longer than, say, 20 years (which is a terrible approximation) without being at war. (continued..)
    1
  71. But does anybody know if they stream their live broadcasts online?
    1
  72. I'm so happy I subscribed to TheYoungTurks. Intelligent sound-bite commentaries!
    1
  73. I wasn't talking specifically about this video but TYT in general...
    1
  74. NM. I found it.
    1
  75. everything you do gets echoed in a virtual canyon for eternity poetic
    1
  76. affiliate marketing, nice
    1
  77. I laughed so fucking hard while watching this
    1
  78. You speak of him. Who is him?
    1
  79. No, stupidity kills!
    1
  80. Everything has a price. With the right amount of money you can not only buy a prison but ways out of them.
    1
  81. a horror story on both ends
    1
  82. chuy RM Andy Dufresne, who crawled through a river of shit and came out clean on the other side.
    1
  83. Serious? Source?
    1
  84. I didn't know that's the only function of the website. I haven't been there and if I wanted to have an affair I probably wouldn't go online to seek one lol
    1
  85. Joining a website is cheating? I think you have attachment problems, my friend.
    1
  86. The Asian dude has a point. Our society, and cultures, or, to be more specific, traditions, or at least the majority of them, are consumer driven and have become absolutely orientated around consumerism nowadays. It's pretty stupid. Claro, if a couple really wanted to display their affection for one another, why wouldn't they create their own "Valentine's" day on some random day of the year. The whole concept of Valentine's Day of the modern world is actually pretty crazy if you think about it.
    1
  87. I didn't hear that. Either I was super stoned or you are twisting her words...
    1
  88. She adopted the male hosts' about men cheating, so his view must be shaped by movies more than fact, too. My view on cheating is that all of it is based on a disregard for whomever's relationship with their other.
    1
  89. Yep, clearly Dr. Drew's show isn't working.
    1
  90. how anybody still has any faith whatsoever in the system is beyond me
    1
  91. i did this kind of shit when i was 12 years old... time to grow up
    1
  92. And it obviously effects our body and therefore our mind.
    1
  93. I'm pretty sure when the model said what she said, she wasn't saying it as if being gay as wrong, contrary to what the male host said and how he acted lol But the models right, a lot of our food has been exposed to hormone-disrupting chemicals...
    1
  94. i fucking love this new series
    1
  95. even tho this isn't news but "news", i still gave it a thumbs up cuz it's hilarious
    1
  96. ...semi-religious, semi-legal institution, and therefore homosexual marriage does indeed serve a practical and logical purpose.
    1
  97. Sooo, what's the dig deal with gay marriage?
    1
  98. So, since gay couples can't legally marry, are you're suggesting that they move to Hawaii or Illinois or out of country in order to acquire a civil union? I enjoy the taste of coffee. Hard to imagine? I know...
    1
  99. He's got a point...
    1
  100. Nearly everything serves a purpose. If marriage, as is, is serving a purpose for heterosexuals, then marriage most likely will serve the same purpose for homosexuals. I only drink decaffeinated coffee, at least for the most part. In fact, decaffeinated coffee has health benefits, considering caffeine, or at least caffeine in excess, can be bad for your bones. Your take on gay marriage is based on ignorance, my friend, because marriage isn't strictly a religious institution, but rather a semi-rel
    1
  101. A group of countries also launched a conservation initiative in 1972. I would, however, have to agree with your statistics.
    1
  102. I thought it just meant 'a black person'? Also, I think the very words we choose to employ matters far less than the tone they're expressed in or, as was stated in this clip, the intent or M.O. behind such an action.
    1
  103. You didn't. I'm sorry, I live in the real world.
    1
  104. You're crazy. The video itself, despite being edited, clearly shows the police officer stepping out of line.
    1
  105. I'm sure that, once they've exhausted their plethora of excuses, they'd claim the only reason they've acted in such a manner is because we do not give them any respect. For them, it's all about blaming the other and never taking responsibility. They're fucking children.
    1
  106. lol
    1
  107. You didn't. I'm sorry, I live in the real world.
    1
  108. Well, I'm not sure what video you watched, because that isn't what's depicted in this video.
    1
  109. Because it's nearly absolutely inconsequential to my life. Why don't you provide me with a link to the full-length video and then I'll tell you what I think after watching it?
    1
  110. What's his "conspiracy theory", that the brothers might not have planted and detonated the bombs, and the attack was most likely conducted by the gov't? Foremost, you can't say with absolute certainty that the brothers did indeed commit the crime. Second, the gov't and gov't factions do not have a pretty track record when it comes to these sorts of things..
    1
  111. Of course, every country is fucked. But your country is reallllly fucked.
    1
  112. lol
    1
  113. Raped and pillaged by who? The Boogeyman?
    1
  114. i've never seen a bouncy house blow away into the sky, let alone shift its position by more than a foot. i'm sorry, but i don't buy it. this is probably some sort of publicity stunt and the people probably filled the things up with helium..
    1
  115. i'm sorry to whomever may disagree with me and possibly take offence to what i'm going to say, but i listened to the audio recording between this man and his girlfriend, and it didn't seem at all racist. of course you can tell the guy is probably at least mildly racist behind closed doors, but that's his decision, and it's not like he goes around flaunting it if that is indeed the case........
    1
  116. also, the guy is cheating on his wife of nearly 60 years with a half-black, half-latina chick, so how racist could the guy really be? to me, the only thing the recording really highlighted that his mistress is manipulative, deceptive, and or vindictive...
    1
  117. TheJohn864 what exactly did he say in the audio recording that was racist, or are you just parroting the opinion of someone else?
    1
  118. TheJohn864 im not saying it was actual love. what im saying is that it was about more than just good ole fucking. also, i asked you what exactly he said that was racist... what were his exact words, verbatim? honestly, the only thing that could be perceived as implicitly racist is referring to "them" as "them" and "[not] prom-- `them`"
    1
  119. Finally TYT releases some newsworthy material
    1
  120. love the spy vs. spy reference :D
    1
  121. I think it's also a cultural thing. It's more "acceptable" in some cultures. But really, if everybody's happy, what's the problem?
    1
  122. Somebody should have slapped the old man over and over and over again until he himself starts crying.
    1
  123. such a funny picture, alcoholic prudes that recycle
    1
  124. The Nazi salute and the lifetime ban, both actions are quite extreme :/
    1
  125. it's quite silly when you think about it all
    1
  126. No need to go even that far. It was genocide; plain and simple. Nothing justifies genocide, unless of course you invade another land that is already possessed by other people :/ America is corrupt and was founded by what the American "justice" system itself deems criminal. It is okay when they do it, but it is not okay for you do it. America: Home of the Hypocrites; Land of the Thieves.
    1
  127. Dick Cheney rotting in hell? Sounds about right.
    1
  128. I bet she herself, pretending to be somebody else, is going to sell them the photos for a quick 15k. KACHING
    1
  129. Typical politics. Lie, cheat, steal, lie, lie, and lie again.
    1
  130. I think one T-shirt of him gazing forward hung on the wall would do the job.
    1
  131. yes, so where exactly is the evidence that it was a robbery?
    1
  132. so odd that he just mysteriously gives up, and of course all of the other insane shenanigans at the DNC
    1
  133. i sleep on average roughly 10 hours everyday and i can't remember being sick once in the past handful of years, aside from a hangover or two
    1
  134. first of all, i'm not american so i'm not that well informed about the american elections, but bernie definitely seemed like the most popular democratic candidate. anyway, what is the popular vote, the pledge delegate vote, and the superdelegate vote?
    1
  135. I think Cenk misunderstands the meaning of the word 'agnostic'.
    1
  136. TY. you beat me to it
    1
  137. robots abuse narcotics?
    1
  138. It's merely another way of committing suicide; or rather instead of dying abruptly, easing yourself into death
    1
  139. lol
    1
  140. I can't believe people still take the Bible and other religious texts literally.
    1
  141. Here in the western world we treat nudity as if it's bad for your health.
    1
  142. i don't vote for these very reasons. what he should be advocating, however, is that we spoil our ballots to express or discontent with bs
    1
  143. so what you're saying is that bullshit is bullshit? i concur
    1
  144. i understood you the first time. i'm just messing around lol
    1
  145. Are you implying the word occidental's meaning is synonymous with the word oriental's meaning? We all know oriental means Asian...
    1
  146. Because we all know "blown-up" eyes aren't attractive and not all Asians' have "blown up" eyes, or maybe I'm just too stoned lol:)
    1
  147. Discreet racism, gotta love it. In a perfect world, racism would be a punishable crime.
    1
  148. you sure you Need it?
    1
  149. Not yet lol
    1
  150. fuckin philosophical zombies
    1
  151. This show broadcasts the fucking funniest news.
    1
  152. criminals don't have quotas to meet, so why do cops? ask yourself this question
    1
  153. Serves him right. Perhaps not his family's information, but his should be released without a doubt
    1
  154. "flyer" fucking idiot lol
    1
  155. If that bike was Cenk's livelihood, he'd feel differently.
    1
  156. What is the name of the font that TYT used for the text 'Labour Party'?
    1
  157. +bandanavillain Divided we stand, united we fall...
    1
  158. bandanavillain it means cooperation, harmony, and the like.
    1
  159. now, americans, just imagine: if your policies had benefited everybody instead of a small group of wealthy people, you would have had a torrential downpour effect, not a trickle down effect!
    1
  160. income is relative
    1
  161. that woman is a waste of space
    1
  162. So, taxpayers are virtually paying (in more ways than one) to be monitored by corporations and institutions?
    1
  163. Brilliant.
    1
  164. No such thing as agnostics?
    1
  165. Lucifuge Lurking about it all being nonsense.
    1
  166. Lucifuge Lurking you've never met or at least seen identical twins whose interests and personalities are essentially different from one another?
    1
  167. Lucifuge Lurking before having to disprove that hypothesis, it should have to be proven that genes determine personality... do you not understand how outlandish and blatantly false such a claim is? the way we look does not determine the way we behave, at least nowhere near the extent to which the creators of this technology would want you to believe. unfortunately this story illustrates that whomever is running homeland security is a fucking patsy or lining the pockets of his/her/their buddies.
    1
  168. Lucifuge Lurking you're kidding yourself to believe genes determine personality. again, as i said before, of course one's genes will influence their personality, but this effect will be insignificant in most cases.
    1
  169. Lucifuge Lurking again, we also know that identical twins can and do behave entirely differently... you say i don't have any evidence, but where is your proof? it's as if you think spouting nonsense repeatedly somehow makes it true.
    1
  170. Lucifuge Lurking that's not a strawman argument at all. the argument is that "human faces have multiple characteristics that are reflective of the genes that determine our personalities". if that were true, as you claim, ALL identical twins should have identical personalities. it's quite obvious that you are pretending to be more intelligent than you actually are. you're too ignorant and obstinate for your own good, but, go ahead, blame your obstinateness on your genes lol
    1
  171. Lucifuge Lurking i'd bet my house you don't even understand what those words mean. i mean, you can't even remember what you said before...
    1
  172. Lucifuge Lurking you have the memory of a goldfish. and you are probably the dumbest person i've come across online in the past few weeks, which is saying something considering i spend quite a bit of time online
    1
  173. Odin's Scrotum that doesn't necessarily mean it's genetics. it might be and likely is due to being raised in the same environment. in the same vein, the personalities of two kids aren't related yet raised in the same environment would also probably more similar. it will have more failures than success, and hence was a waste of taxpayer's hard earned money. i can assure you that. are you kidding me? the stupidest shit makes the news. shit that isn't even news makes the news...
    1
  174. Odin's Scrotum trust me, i agree that genetics has an effect on and determines personality traits to an extent. my only point is that in most cases genetic influence is insignificant compared to environmental influence. it really depends upon how one defines failed in this context. is that how we are going about detecting (and pursuing) criminals nowadays, on chance performance? lol what really matters is not subjecting innocent persons to treatment which is only appropriate for, perhaps, a pedophile. at what cost to the innocent (and what cost in general) will the implementation of such shoddy bring about?
    1
  175. thank god for the internet
    1
  176. trump is insane...
    1
  177. At least that's my interpretation of Buddhism.
    1
  178. The dude host makes many good points but I don't think Buddhism is about escaping this world but rather going or rather searching within in yourself, and that's what all religions should be based on, in my opinion. And I do believe in the whole concept of zen.
    1
  179. Brand suggesting socialism? No thanks!
    1
  180. but cenk, the whole point is to not give a shit what other people think; other peoples' thoughts are their own to deal with. their interview, what they were saying wasn't at all unbearable, but rather refreshing.
    1
  181. why isn't this on every mainstream news outlet? overt instead of the typical covert-ish extortion
    1
  182. So absurb.
    1
  183. 1:01 anybody know the name and artist of that painting?!! Thanks
    1
  184. I'm not sure if it was or not, but, even if that is the case, it wouldn't strip the study of all its merit...
    1
  185. Furthermore, there was another TYT segment recently that highlighted a study conducted by Princeton that confirms the U.S. is an oligarchy.
    1
  186. Devildog0166 yeah perhaps he could've handled it in another manner, but he handled the "question"/baseless assertion quite appropriately nonetheless.
    1
  187. Devildog0166 idk about that. but imo he's definitely a hypocrite whose word is worthless like 99% of politicians.
    1
  188. Devildog0166 i couldn't agree any more
    1
  189. I remember watching Compliance months ago, but I never knew it was based on actual events.
    1
  190. I just found out yesterday that TYT stream live 4 (or 5?) days a week. That made me unbelievably happy :D
    1
  191. Is it supposed to be funny?
    1
  192. I had never heard of this Lee guy until now. Thanks for the great recommendation
    1
  193. More like a 1 in 4.347826 chance but who's counting
