Hilariously someone cited him predicting Le Pen would win as some reason why we shouldn't write her off or whatever...I actually found his video where he does that and he does not at ANY point address polls, the first round result, or any type of math, he just went on some rants about MUH IMMIGRATION and MUH EU. What a top notch quality analyst!

I've never actually seen any discussions about ancient Sumeria here, so I can't really say.

Guys like Sargon supporting Bernie Sanders was exhibit number 1 that a Sanders victory in 2016 would not have represented the triumph a progressive coalition.

He's a sad person honestly. The only way one spend so much time unironically bitching about a very small minority of people (uptight SJWs) 24/7 has to be suffering from a mental condition.

     Clearly huge Freedom Fighters.

You really need to calm down, man. It's not healthy to get obsessive like this.

     This is how BRTD functions. Some guy who spends his time emphasizing classical liberal principles like free speech and equality of opportunity happens to support Le Pen (which is rather monomaniac but not illogical; the establishment is broken and Le Pen is against the establishment) and BRTD becomes obsessed over it. I remember when he was convinced that Nietzsche was a Nazi.

But his reasoning for predicting a Le Pen victory has ZERO mathematical or statistical basis, just worn out MUH IMMIGRANTS and MUH EU rants. If those were such big factors in France they could propel her to victory the first round of voting would've gone much differently.

I haven't seen anyone here reference an Assyro-Babylonian ruler, but then again I don't frequent the history board a lot, so I might have missed it.

     I agree he's wrong about it, and I think his mistake is supposing that the French are motivated by similar factors to what the British were motivated by in voting for Brexit. The Anglosphere is fundamentally different from the Continent in terms of political philosophy, however, so Brexit does not apply.

     You're still overreacting though. Tongue

     The alt-right hates him and constantly harasses him on Twitter. He was suspended for a little while for tweeting interracial gay porn back at them (the only proper response to the alt-right, of course).

He's loved by neoreactionaries, the English Defense League, all sorts of MRAs and Breitbart. Just because he doesn't get along with out and out white supremacists doesn't change that. That's like saying the Sanders-supporting people on Twitter who trash tankie communist morons aren't leftist.

Sargon definitely panders to the alt-right (that's where he gets the majority of his viewers), but he isn't one of them and identifies as a leftist. Check out his discussions with Kyle Kulinski.

OK so here's a simple question: Why is he worth listening to?

-He's obviously a terrible election predictor and analyst.
-If he panders to the alt-right that's bad enough.
-If most of what he does is just reporting "college students freak out about something stupid"...well then yeah, who care.

What makes him someone enlightening and worth paying attention to?

His name is Carl Benjamin and his opinions are meaningless drivel that are devoid of substance or actual though.

Oh come on, PiT, he's not any friend of classical liberalism or free speech; he's only for those things when it helps him win followers.
