LOL

[KaiserDave]

Used to be a decently respectable if out there lefty journalist.

Now a completely batty raving conspiracy theorist

[TML]

He has some good stances on various hot button issues, but clearly lacks the skills to build alliances with others, even with those who may otherwise share his values.

Still haven't figured out who this is

[Santander]

Massive FF. #forcethevote

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Still haven't figured out who this is

Some YouTube grifter who has managed to get a large enough audience for his grift by denying war crimes, shilling for Assad, and constantly bemoaning about how the Democrats are worse than Trump.

You're confusing Jimmy with Cenk Uygur.

They're both YouTube grifters but other than that I don't see what in that post applies to Cenk.

"denying war crimes" = The Young Turks.  Cenk also gets pissy when you call that name out.

Yeah that's true but I was referring to Syria for Dore. They're both pretty awful though so I don't really care about comparing Cenk to him.

[VBM]

Terrible but somehow still infinitely better than any CNN/MSNBC/Fox talking head

[Santander]

I love how Jimmy Dore openly attacks Cenk nowadays lol. And AOC, and Bernie.

[S019]

Useless grifter

[The world will shine with light in our nightmare]

I never really cared one way or the other about the guy until his stupid fight with AOC. He's irrelevant and always will be, regardless of where the progressive left goes.

[Gracile]

Who?

[Antonio the Sixth]

A cancer. Any leftist with an ounce of sense needs to avoid him at all costs.

[GeneralMacArthur]

A failed comedian who found a grift making YouTube videos where he presents a bunch of misinformation and then gets REALLY REALLY ANGRY about it.

That would be bad enough, but there's dozens of other YouTube grifters doing the exact same thing.  Present a bunch of false information to make everyone in the world look awful, lie to people that there's an easy solution that only the grifter is willing to identify, then deliver your Oscar-worthy righteous anger monologue.  Beg for Patreon money at the end.  Everyone is doing this.

What makes Jimmy especially odious though is that he seems to be such a terrible person that even other grifters, who are by and large a batch of sleazy lying sociopaths, see him as utterly nasty and beneath them.  That's really saying something!

[All Along The Watchtower]

Don’t know him but he seems like a HP.

[Former Crackhead Mike Lindell]

A loon I generally agree with

[Grumpier Than Thou]

A moron who has very obviously never read anything in his life

To be fair, I don't think any actual leftists do like him. His fanbase seems to mostly consist of right-wingers who love to cite him and hold him up as an example of "what progressives should be like" and weirdo contrarians who stan Tulsi Gabbard.

I can confirm that this is not true. Jimmy Dore in some American Socialist circles has been viewed as sort of a beltway to “real socialism” in his commitment against the Democratic Party, anti-imperialist lines, and platforming non-establishment activists. The recent #ForceTheVote movement he helped to further popularize garnered very much a lot of respect.

Now, his style does attract vulgar types that can be easily misled and entrapped by people like Tulsi Gabbard, who rather was skilled in getting fools to vote for her. However, I don’t see Jimmy Dore as having the warning signs of being noticeably open as social conservative, having an insincere rightist bent in his early career, or being respected by established conservative public figures like Tulsi Gabbard was.

Now, from what I’ve seen of him on my feed, he doesn’t seem to be a NazBol or some ardent Stalinist. He clearly isn’t that well read or some paragon of theoretical ability and practicality in politics. Nor is the chance of him being a careerist not there. I’m pretty sure he’s not incredibly hiding his true beliefs much or something.

His recent video targeting the SEP cargo cultists seemed pretty good and affirming of what I’ve seen of him. He appears quite genuine and knows his line of work well, and he has a loyal niche that in itself is quite diverse. I don’t think accusing all his viewerbase of being Nazbol or conservatives hating the Democratic Party is fair here.
