So, we can thank the Young Turks for nepo-babying that racist, misogynistic, terrorist supporting mess into our lives.

He was on TYT doing Bro Tips in their attempt to appeal to the manosphere. Where such totally progressive humor such as "Old enough to count, old enough to mount?" got aired, and he treated women like you'd expect a rich, spoiled frat bro to treat women.

Just saw some drama last week (Shoe on Head, if you're interested, but I advise you not to be). His arguments against her were basically, "She's a woman, so she's a whore."

Yep. That's who people want in the party.
