Thanks Andrew. I live in the upper Midwest in a fairly homogeneous town, and these are voices and POVs I would not have otherwise heard had you not reported on it.

kjo

BWAHAHAHh

My grandfather protected the Little Rock 9 back in the day. Was a testy time but he held his own for it.

Justin Jeffery

youre still in delusional denial world. They lied to you dumbass. Its not all lies and shit. Youre just too stupid to know that you get lied to every day and repeat whatever the CNN told you to say. Basically black people volunteering to be slaves to the democrat party to this day.

trythinking

dude that money would be blown on malt liquor and menthol cigarettes within like 24 hours

trythinking

AmenaRa yes it does always sound like whining and bitching about how black people have been oppressed since beginning of time and for some reason dont have the ability to do what every other race of people have been able to do. The left sounds the most racist by making those claims. Who cares if someone looks like you?? Stop looking at skin color! That is the whole point. Didnt you listen to MLK Jr? The people that aren't learning are all the liberals who watch Channel 5 to reinforce their liberal bias views. Everyone on the right watches this because we watch a bunch of different points of view to sift through the bullshit. You guys never hear anything but the same shit from your own echo chamber and now you act like people are insane for just telling the truth.

trythinking

online is going to have the best possible history without being infected by the liberal bias like colleges have now. If you want the college liberal version, you dont even need to learn anything...its all just "blame white people for literally everything bad that has ever happened to anyone ever". If you want true history you can find it.

trythinking

keep on crying

trythinking

Notice I didnt say America was the EARLIEST to end slavery but the FASTEST. And you criticize my education level and literacy when you cannot read the statement correctly. From start to finish, America had slavery for a shorter time than anywhere else. Stop coping and crying. Every smart and decent black person agrees with my view by the way. Every class and race of people in America had to build their wealth from having nothing. Black people were in the NORTH as well. There were FREE black people, what about them? Did they also suffer because of slavery even though they were free? Everyone else from Europe that came here with nothing managed to build wealth within their community. All you people do is refer to a bunch of coping stories and blame everything on everyone else instead of just overcoming the obstacles. Your point of view isnt helping anyone.

trythinking

nobody wants to hear the bullshit coping anymore bye

trythinking

fr tho. didn’t think that the JRE alpha brain could’ve infected the C5 community

Big bucket on a bonce

The C5 community and Andrew are very anti political, and the people interviewed in this piece are apologetic Democrats who thought voting for the lesser evil was the better option. This definitely isn’t a jerk off of the GOP with Dem tears. If you don’t understand this you’re in the wrong community.

Big bucket on a bonce

Let's fucking go

Hey, at least you watched and reflected on it my dude, even if we don't agree. Thanks for taking the time to do that at least

DW is correct, community colleges are a GREAT place to get educated on any particular subject for real cheap. If anything you might even qualify for it to be paid for depending on state/community programs or grants! As a graduate of Community College, I highly recommend it!

Matthew Bourgoine

Regarding Senator Sanders, I voted for him in 2016 and was actually a very staunch supporter. I went canvasing and knocked on doors for him, and he was gaining insane levels of popularity, that was sadly snuffed out due to a broken 'super delegate' system and the workings of the DNC. It was really sad because Senator Sanders not only has a history in politics that is respected, but he appeased to the working class so well which garnered the highest independent support I've personally ever seen. I doubt he would have been able to do everything he wanted due to Neo-liberal obstructionists on the republican and democrat side, but it would have been a step in the right direction helping the working class with collective bargaining and addressing the material needs of the majority. Regarding the vote count, votes are actually still being counted as we speak. I think it's coming down now to under 3 million less votes from 2020, and Trump even winning the popular vote which a Republican hasn't won since 2004. From this, there are a few factors to take into account. One is that young white men are voting right more than they were 4 to 8 years ago. This can be a condition of right-wing man-o-sphere podcasts which are predominately white male audiences advocating for Trump, but the biggest thing is more Black and Latino voters voting for Trump, even when he speaks risks of deportation/disenfranchisement. What this tells me is not so much that there's support for Trump, but more desire to break the status quo of current American politics. Since Nixon, the shift to more hard line capitalism at the expense of the American working tax payer has become the play for both sides. This is thanks to Nixon and Roger Ailes to control the media (See Rupert Murdoch and Fox News), to Reagan firing the airline strike and massive deregulation hurting the working class, to even Clinton and the implementation of NAFTA and removal of the Glass-Stegal act leading to the 2008 financial crisis. For over 60 years the American working class has been struggling while the flow of wealth has gone to the top 1% in astounding amounts (Bernie Sanders goes after this a lot). So much so that the level of wealth accumulated by the top 1% is exponential when compared to the remaining 99%. This is then mirrored by Western allies like the UK, Australia, and more because it's been a winning strategy for oligarchs and the wealthy for a long time. You control the messaging and optics, you can control the discourse and drive the talking points, even if they're false. And trust me, I feel that fear. I am a Veteran who is surviving thanks to the benefits from the VA (Veterans Affairs) and Trump is putting people in office who wish to cut benefits for Veterans like me and I'm not excited for what's to come.

Matthew Bourgoine

I agree with everything you said super well put and a cool perspective I hanpdnt seen! It seems like a lose lose when your voted candidate wins 55 counties (Bernie) then someone else gets nominated in it must be so defeating to feel like your vote doesn’t count, do you think that’s why over 100m people or so didn’t vote ? A feeling of what’s the point? And since COVID you are 100000 percent right in New Zealand we elected the ceo of our airline company as prime minister (worst thing ever) he said the same as Rick Snyder we are customers and he’s the ceo of us, because I think maybe.. after COVID everyone had less money so a ceo who makes a company successful must be able to make us more money, but seems here they just know how to make personal profit, I try stay informed with US politics because we are just a little behind but plays out the exact same, it’s really interesting to watch for us our new government called national is destroying everything, we have free health care and they are trying to privatise it, as well as education and copying America with tax bail outs for landlords it’s scary it’s like watching America is like watching the future here

Ulysses Finnerty

I too wish Bernie was the nominee, but even he would have had an extreme uphill battle to win votes, as the very reason of going against Biden (age) would have been used by Republicans and establishment Dems to go against him (Since Bernie is older). Cancel culture isn't really a thing that is used entirely by one party or another, but is just used in general by people when interacting with something astonishing or offensive. Not to say it's acceptable when either side does it because I think there's a threshold of harassment that gets crossed, and I don't think that woman should have received death threats, but that's something that can come intentionally or unintentionally based on the nature of social media. Cancel Culture has been done on the right multiple times with Republicans going after "DEI" candidates, and even harassing Ohio Republicans that spoke out against Trump for his bogus Haitian migrant claims. The difference is really that the right weaponizes it when they're victims, and then make it a campaign when they're the offenders. When they're the victims, it was "free speech", but when they're the offenders, it's the "morally right thing to do". Truth is, Republicans are masters of consumable messaging. Think about the Trump campaign the last 8 years (god that is exhausting to think about). "MAGA", "Build the Wall", "Migrant Crime", and then the rallies where Trump is falsely claiming that they're "Trans-ing the Youth" or how "Democrats are globalists", or even how he's going to "Tariff China". They're all easily consumable to his base and repeatable rhetoric, regardless if its true or not (A majority of his claims are false). The Republicans almost always win the messaging war because they participate in culture war to distract and blame working Americans of a bogey-man, while hiding away the deals they sign to rob them even more of their wealth and material needs. As an American/Veteran, I think the Democrats lost because they attempted to repeat a failing 2016 Hillary Campaign, and failed to address the economic struggles of the working class in an adequate matter. Instead of separating herself from Joe Biden (who has a HUGE disapproval rating) and trying to tell people why she'd be BETTER or DIFFERENT from the current Administration is their biggest failure. The Democrat party showed they wanted to continue status quo politics with the likes of the Cheney family and moderate Republicans and trying to play 'both sides' (see the Biden/Harris administrations actions on immigration/border wall and oil contracts), instead of actually trying to show themselves as real fundamental change. The American people chose Trump because they want change. Now what kind of change is gonna be left for the future to decide, but it is what it is. Oh, also side note, almost every incumbent administration has lost their power since Covid in every democratic nation around the world. I think this trend is because the inflation was on a global scale, not just any one nation, and thus this is the falling out of current administration incumbencies worldwide.

Matthew Bourgoine

Didn't need a history lesson. I literally know people who were poor and worked hard and became successful. I was from the streets and I have so much now. And the sky is the limit. That's wwhy America is great. If you're aiming to be rich, that's the problem. So keep sitting there, complaining about how it's broken and unfair. You want unfair? take a look at the rest of the world. Yall are privileged whining little shits. How's that for good faith? The truth hurts, I know.

Travis Little

This has to be one of the stupidest comments I've ever read. Firstly, the United States wasn't the fastest, as almost the entirety of Northern Europe and Northern Asia abolished slavery before the United States did, and it wasn't just White People, but a coalition of white and black people working together to abolish such. Additionally, wild to accuse students going to COLLEGE of being ignorant when you type like someone with 5th grade literacy. So what if it's 2024? Social issues will never stop being addressed at any point in history. Also, wild as fuck to blame the black people for Slavery when the white people buying them played and equal, if not greater part in the travesty, but I don't think you're built for critical thinking with the mindset you hold.

Matthew Bourgoine

For sure! Thanks for replying, I think the controlling the narrative is more based around cancel culture, if you had views opposite to anything that went against the socially correct like if you were anti trans or anti anything that extreme side believed, you would be cancelled or attacked heavily, there’s that story of a lady who said something semi racist on her twitter and only had a few hundred followers on her way to Africa (something about being white and hopefully not getting AIDS) stupid as thing to say but it got millions of re tweets and hate and people saying they hope she dies people contacted her work and she lost her job, I’d never defend what she said but an example of such an extreme backlash from them was way outweighing what she said, things like that made it scary to have any opinions that might offend the mob (not to the extent of racism bout to talk maybe about immigration or anything up in that realm) maybe trans non binary wasn’t the best thing to say and the “etc” I should have explained more again in New Zealand we didn’t get the ads or much apart from the debates which seemed like a culture war over politics which is a bummer so I am way less informed, will say this, I wish Bernie rightfully was the nominee

Ulysses Finnerty

To want to vote for "peace" when the guy in his Presidency exacerbated the conflict with Iran, inflamed Israel/Palestine tensions with his Jerusalem embassy, and is currently capitulating to a Russian invading force in Ukraine, violating the Budapest Memorandum, isn't the "peace" you might think...

Matthew Bourgoine

I agree with you on the scope of neo liberalism causing the American struggle through optical antics and not addressing actual issues persisting to the material needs of the people, but I'm failing to see where you're coming from with the "controlling speech direction to trans non binary etc". Everything you heard about trans rights during both campaigns came from Trump and Trump affiliates. At no point did the Harris campaign mention anything about Trans rights, with the only exception being Tim Walz mentioning that the Republicans are 'weird' for constantly trying to shoehorn themselves into peoples personal choices. I think you're a little too trans-locked, but you're close!

Matthew Bourgoine

I'm going to assume you're argument is in good faith, so with that, It's not that the poor just exclaim unfair and want all of anyones wealth. The issue is that the distribution of wealth has been consolidated to the top 1% of americans for over 60 years now under deregulation through the idea of "Trickle down economics", that usually leads to the wealthy gaining more and more of the total wealth pool each year, and reducing the overall wealth you and I can accumulate. An example of this was during Covid, the level of wealth that the tech giants like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg attained were overwhelming, while inflation caused prices and cost of living to go up, while wages stayed stagnant, leaving the labor class with less earning power overall. Ultimately, it's not about rich = bad, but how the system has been setup to disproportionately enrich the already wealthy while keeping the working class down and begging for scraps. The issue is further exacerbated for people of color, namely black and latino people. There's nothing wrong with being rich, but buying into a system in which to empower yourself to continue to get richer while harming others ability to simply survive is the issue at hand. Republicans made this succeeded in this with Nixon, Regan, Bush, and Democrats have played along with Clinton and Obama, against the wishes of the working class and leftists.

Matthew Bourgoine

I do really wish you had captured everyone after they found out. I think it's really important to show the devastation, especially for the Howard community.

ari levin

I agree. I'm glad that we can support the channel and this side of journalism by paying... but I don't see an actual point when most of the videos are identical and uploaded on both platforms the same day. I wish they'd put the Dear Kelly doc on here or at least part of it. I had tickets to see it in Arizona but the venue ended up changing and I didn't find out until I was there & one of the employees said it was no longer happening :/ By that time the show at the other venue 30 minutes away had already been going on for an hour. I'm conflicted - hopefully we see some uncut vids soon because it doesn't make sense financially to keep paying monthly.

katie

don't read the comments. trust me.

skevin

I also feel oriented wealthy people are just doing what we all are doing... getting that cash. I meanbi want some too.. but I'm not gonna get mad because they getting it and I'm still not. Just means I need to do more to get wealthy. And then when I'm wealthy I'll hold kntk that wealth because, looks like the poor think it's unfair and want all my wealth. Ever think of it that way? Maybe it's equally fair for all of us (or unfair if you want to think of it that way)

Travis Little

Keep fighting the good fight brother. These wealthy people are fucking us over whether we're black or white, but that's way less important than the black people who talk about black people's problems. How dare they talk about their problems and not mine -- that's what we need to fight back on, and that'll totally fix what the wealthy have done to us. Totally.

Ado

I feel bad for Americans in particular, the neo liberal fascism of controlling speech directed to trans non binary etc went too far especially with cancel culture such a small minority was directing the conversation and censorship and this election shows the majority has had enough of not being able to speak their minds without repercussions and unfortunately only the right seemed to allow that, the left ate itself from the inside by allowing this minority to control so much of the conversation, I think when they realised they were losing the white, black, Latino etc votes they went to far on trying to get them back with whacky ads and moved away from the groups they had supported so heavily, it seems they tried where at a fork in the road and panicked and went the wrong way, the left has some cool initiatives and so does the right but they focused to much on identity politics which is a bummer and almost pushed the average citizen into the arms of the right. (I’m from New Zealand so my opinion is probably apt just what I saw from news etc)

Ulysses Finnerty

@Dakota if you have the time and interest there are US History courses at local community colleges, may even have an online option. At the very least, you could find out which textbook(s) are being used for the class.

DW

Where would you recommend starting at if you don’t go to college? I enjoy doing research. Would I just start by researching the beginning of slavery and going further along or would there be a better starting point to understand politics?

Dakota Figel

Yeah dude. Spending 5$ a month on a Patreon when I could be paying for another Patreon and getting different content than on their YouTube. I can just wait a few days after it drops here for it to by on YouTube for free and it basically be the same thing.

Dakota Figel

Totally not stereotyping.. because according to polling results a huge majority of your own race disagrees with you. Have a great day!

Travis Little

We will be exactly like Twitter. Good God I hope you at least have the sense to understand the context of that statement.

Captain Jaws

Black people ever since their masters released them: "So, are we gonna talk about that?" The white masters: "Whaaaaaaa, that was a long time ago, stop being weird." I get it: YOU didn't do slavery... but you're persisting that last part like a douche.

Captain Jaws

You can see through the identity games to vote for... Trump?! The guy who's name was on the banners of people who stormed the Capitol? Is this hyperbole?! Sarcasm?!

Captain Jaws

Cool stereotyping, let me try: Oh, look, a typical white guy pretending like his personal economic issues are the same as systemic racial ones.

Captain Jaws

I think you missed my point.

Kaerakh

Calling an entire voter base uneducated surely isn’t inflammatory. I know education doesn’t conflate with intelligence but it isn’t what OP is implying.

AL

Not all ppl who want dept of ed defunded think like this. Dont group in one idiot who can’t learn how to space out something for the rest of us who want to remove funding for an entity that has provided dubious educational results during its existence. We can get much better results with different types of grant programs and a freer education system. Most go through K-12 to do another 2 years in college regurgitating the same core class material they were taught over their childhood BEFORE even getting to the crux of what they came to college for. At some point the ridiculous mandates, bloated overspending, and shitty bureaucracy has to fold.

AL

Uncut footage + a few exclusive vids every month would probably keep me around too. It’s hard justifying the spend when the videos are right on YouTube while I’m also watching on Patreon. Hey maybe even a free giveaway of some merch every month or so to a few people could help a lot — our expenses = their revenue and I don’t not wanna support but can’t get the same as a free product essentially..

AL

Hear hear

AL

I don’t think Andrew’s intent was to come off racist or some shit that’s just a basic tenant of helicopter money theory. You can’t just throw $$$ at something and it magically fixes everything. Anything further like asset redistribution is just forced communism Btw you can always space your text here, it helps with readability.

AL

Besides the historical lesson from Andrew I didn’t really learn much from these PhDs, overpriced degree holders in the most privileged area of the USA (D.C. corruption money links) Good riddance to the machine that spends $4trn a year in bloated bureaucracy, skews economic activity away from natural savings rates into riskier consumption/investment habits, and has eroded **all** American purchasing power the last 30+ years.

AL

I was very surprised to see an HBCU in Channel 5 news coverage!

AmenRa P.

African-American history is essential to understanding the current state of the world, American politics, and so much more! Think about how essential slavery was to building any empire...then look at how the old world used African slavery to have a labor class to build the new world. It's SUPER important and so many don't care...I'd highly recommend a minor or even just poking your head into an AAS department cause I'll tell you Mr. Hernandez, you will learn things more complex and fascinating then anything your engineering program has to offer!

AmenRa P.

I came out strong but that's because I grew up without no silver fucking spoon. I grew up with difficult shit with AALL other races who grew up the same around me. I never had no shit handed to me. SOMSOME races think it's only them because history but it's equally unfair for everyone NOW regardless of skin color.

Travis Little

I think the comment was interesting as well but not completely out of nowhere or without some sort of bias. Like there are FOR SURE, some folks who - if reparations was just a stimulus check with a memo line of "for slavery and stuff" it would be gone in a day without really spending it on anything to better one's life. It's just the nature of the world. But like...if people are "finically literate" they would maybe be able to spend that cash on stuff to better their lives or their community...obviously that's a hypothetical because reparations will never happen for Black folks...because this is America BUT if efforts were made. AND if those efforts were just a one time check I wouldn't mind some suggestions for folks on how to spend it. Regardless people are going to do what they want but even if you're 22 and get a check for 5k for reparations, and have never heard of any retirement account or investment options - it wouldn't be a bad idea to learn some "finically literacy" for those who need it. Some people don't know what you can do with money aside from buy and save!

AmenRa P.

Totally.

Travis Little

Travis bro just try and listen again without the whole "Typical black people" thing in your head cause you could actually learn something from these clearly educated people.

AmenRa P.

Literally no one said anything like that in the interviews. However...they did all have very articulate points about issues that were pertinent to how they and their peers see the election and politics as a whole. Very awesome that you spent money to support this amazing journalism that teaches you absolutely nothing because of your close mindedness.

AmenRa P.

Typical black people who think it's them against the world! Absolutely nobody has it harder then them! Totally no white people who grow up in difficult times these days. Totally.

Travis Little

Was coming here to ask the same thing

Luka

I mean, one side kinda _does_ have the facts, not all of them, but let's call them "fact-based"... whereas conservatives in this country rule only on fear and bogeymen. Can try as hard as possible to be impartial and not make one side look worse than the other, but when the entire campaign is spent relishing in how awful they plan to be once given power, what else is there to report? The hate and intolerance is part of their messaging. Where do you go from there? Fuck the dems too but at least they encourage education and display some temperance. Environment is fucked under trump. It got fucked under trump last time and it'll get fucked even harder this time. No both sides about that shit.

Bryan R

Andrew can to please elaborate further about your comment …That calls into question the issue of financial literacy of the recipients…?

Growyourownveggies

Does anyone know where these new, ultra conservative racists are coming from?

Bobby Guilly

Look at anything Trump has said, without trying to pretend it's fake.

Bobby Guilly

Yes lets trust the people that want to continue starting wars and not the people talking about clean food/water and replacing violent global conflicts with economic international competitiveness, this isn't a red wave, it's a wave of people that can see through identity/ego games and pay attention to what's being said instead of who's saying it

Adam Dev

You know, I’m not trying to be that guy Andrew. People support your Patreon for a reason and I’m starting to rethink supporting your Patreon. I understand this video is only about a minute less than the YouTube video. But why are we not getting the uncut version of this? I understand Patreon is supposed to be a more exclusive and higher and content, but what’s the point in paying for a Patreon if the videos that you get and the content you receive is not as good as the YouTube videos? I would love to see more videos uncut, even if that means 45 minutes of just filler content with nobody having any sustenance to the conversation with you. Thank you.

Scotty Supermoto

@trythinking did you even watch the video? they did vote and elect people who were more diverse.... and then the KKK started lynching to prevent them from voting, sometimes in coordination with the candidates themselves, and the terrorism worked.

its super biased

trythinking

dude anything negative about black people today is the fault of black people. at some point you have to take up responsibility and stop blaming literally everything in the world for your problems. White people actually ended slavery for blacks within a few hundred years. Black people in Africa haven't stopped enslaving other black people STILL some places. I mean, whats the real argument here? Youre obviously super brainwashed by the fake identity based version of history. Guess what, no one really cares that youre black! I know thats your entire identity based on race, but nobody gives a shit. Just be good responsible person and stop blaming the white man on all your problems.

trythinking

Yes we are very lucky. Thank goodness MOST of the country voted for him and aren't just racist victims like the left. "but uhhh but im black though and im uhhh but hes white man and orange man durrrr "

trythinking

We ended slavery faster than anyone else in history has. That was great wasn't it? Thank goodness for white people for ending slavery. You need to learn more history if you do not understand why America is the guide to all others on how to be the best. Things Americans do outside of America....still make America great. Do yall think the only country that gets a benefit from something is the country that the people are currently standing in? How does that make sense? Get off the identity politics. Stop focusing on race, that is what racist people do. Stop being so racist democrats.

trythinking

Did you actually type "Thank you white people for ending the slavery of black people" or was that 'AI' generated nonsense?

DW

this is an obvious super left leaning channel so I would look at other sources to balance out the info.

trythinking

time to come out of your echo chamber. most of the country has seen reality thankfully. If youre only in this liberal focused media, including channel 5 who is obviously very left leaning in his reporting. and spend your time on reddit, then youre basically blind and refuse to get glasses. You call someone an idiot, when the liberal side is the one saying men can be pregnant and cant define what a woman is. Why the fuck would anyone listen to people who dont know the difference in men and women....? You have to logical foundation to make any judgments. Everyone with a brain on the democrat side left to go republican.

trythinking

A bunch of misled, gaslit, and ignorant people that are the product of the college brainwashing and indoctrination. Thankfully most of the country now sees this is all bull shit and we can get some things done without stopping to argue about fucking skin color and gender every 5 seconds. Its 2024 people. If you want someone to blame slavery on, go back in time and talk to the black people that captured other black people, dragged them to the coastline and sold them off to white people. Youre the origin of your own oppression. Thankfully, white people ended slavery in America faster than anyone else has ended slavery in history. There are more slaves today than there ever was in America. You have to move past this bullshit and everyone is tired of hearing it. Thank you white people for ending the slavery of black people. Only to have them voluntarily re-enter slavery to the democratic party by taking free hand outs in exchange for votes ever since Lindon B Johnson.

trythinking

andrew being biased too much lately with his obvious super left leaning world view. Why do you want the government to "look" more diverse when we shouldn't be judging people by their appearance or background? It should be merit and by voting. This idea that it needs to represent the demographic perfectly would actually mean that ..it would be mostly white people in there anyway. The shame is that you only focus on skin color and spend more energy playing a victim than just making change for the better. The things that made cultural divides were democrat party reclaiming black people as their modern day slaves, assigning them to free "housing" and giving them free handouts in exchange for their votes, basically. They have only made more and more division, and then gaslight everyone to think it was "the white man" who is evil and responsible for every bad thing. I have new for you, every race and country have ton evil things and many cultures did much worse. White people actually ended slavery faster than any other group in history. Black people captured other blacks as slaves and sold them to white people. You dragged your same race to the coastlines to sell of to them white man. Time to look in the fucking mirror now and then. Thankfully MOST of the country sees your view as total bullshit finally and maybe we can get some shit done.

@Bardiel are you on planet Jupiter or something? You think college in modern day means you are smarter? No, it just means you've been programmed to believe all the woke leftist bullshit. People that dont know what a man and woman is. People who want everything handed to them because of skin color. You think you understand how tariffs will be used as a bargaining chip to help American industry??? You have to leave your little echo chambers of "im a victim" and "lgbt" bullshit and see the real world for once. How can you be American and NOT want us to secure our border and not let most people in, especially not illegally. Go read some history and people who know what a woman is and maybe you'll cure your own blindness.

Thank you brother well said

Anthony Tornbom

I’ve got plenty of empathy for people with brains not just opinions that were shoved down their throats

Anthony Tornbom

To piss off the far left, i know what I’m doing

Anthony Tornbom

I’m not a sore winner. I’m just happy that this country didn’t fall apart. Don’t give a shit about the media either it’s bs on either side that’s why I come to independent journalist. Also, I care about the economy and the country and I don’t give a shit about peoples ‘feelings’ because that’s what’s wrong with this country in the first place as we care too much and people are so sensitive.

Anthony Tornbom

When you believe straight lies and repeat them constantly, it is hard to have empathy. All the nazi germany bull shit....have you guys even studied WW1 and WW2 to see how the nazi germany came to be in the first place? The media has lied for years and you have believed all of it. Most of America woke up and voted for Trump because what he can do and not what a bunch of woke media yapped about for the last like 10 years.

I wanna know why nobody talked about AI the whole election cycle except the kid from the election video. A fucking tsunami is coming praise Jah AGI induced UBI and coasean markets incoming

Zac Haffey

Love him or hate him, what of substance does a comment like this even bring to the table. It’s just inflammatory talk to be inflammatory

King Kahoonah

No, we've HAD a public mental health crisis for some time. But painting every person on the opposite side from you as being and acting the same is no better than what you accuse them of being, doing or saying. It's just as unrealistic.

James L

Lmao. He changed it to "brain dead". 😂

James L

If you're happy about that insurrection taking place then you're a despicable person and the opposite of a patriot. -A veteran

James L

You're a sore winner. How does that make sense? Have some class cause it could have been you on the other side bein sad and it wouldn't feel great having a bunch of people praising your misfortune. Or is it just really that common for Trump supporters to not have a sense of empathy?

James L

It worked 4 years ago. Guess some folks need another reminder.

DW

If only you could take the money back that you have spent on college, plus the amount you still owe to buy yourself a brain scan. Would be interesting to know what's wrong.

Scotty Supermoto

Acting as if survival only applies to warzones in an attempt to dismiss someone's concerns is wild, bro. We need more empathy and far less bad-faith cynicism.

Arcendus

She...stated her policies? Did Trump? "I'll cut your taxes in half!" is not a policy, it's an empty (and false) statement. The drastic uptick in google searches for "tariff" and "deportation" says a lot about the overwhelmingly uneducated Trump voter base (something like 80%+ without a college education). A lot of people fucked around and are about to find out.

Bardiel

dude im a college student and only focused on ancient history (even though I am an engineering major) and never went into full detail about the reparations period. thanks andrew for giving me something to research on.

Nelson Hernandez

So happy Trump won, feels that much sweeter watching these libs cry about it

Anthony Tornbom

That's really wrong. Increasing costs reduces usage, which directly helps. But also, the real cost of using gas isn't being borne by drivers equally. The real cost is in damages from severe weather and fires, in war and mass migrations from drought, famine, and resource wars. Climate change is directly causing these, but gas companies do not bear those costs, individuals and governments do. Increasing gas taxes goes towards creating funds to "build back better", fund fema and other emergency funds, bail out companies, individuals, and their insurers when they collapse under random expenses. Money does matter, be sure it motivates behavior. Both by not charging enough and by reallocating. It is doing what direct education and societal change is far too slow to do (after all, we would have done it decades ago if that were enough).

Ronald W Buie

Is you think Trump or the republicans gaf about any racial issues I've got a bridge to sell you.

bigchiefcrazysmoke

Literally half the post happened in America and the other half secured the world’s safety for democracy.Next .

Matt

Most of the things you listed happened outside of America. They're good things America did but they didn't make America great, and there are tons of other horrible things America has done and is doing both inside our own country and around the world that over shadow everything else for a lot of Americans and just about every non American person in the world.

bigchiefcrazysmoke

Poor crew are the victims of misinfo

basslinebenny

Have you learned nothing from listening to 10 minutes of drunk, low-information voters (and non-voters—who apparently couldn’t get it together to register three weeks before the election), intercut with a 2 minute history lesson about Reconstruction? I’ve heard every racist, misandrist explanation of why Trump won by now, but no one is willing to say the truth: Kamala Harris is an unlikeable, unqualified candidate, who cannot or will not articulate her policies, and for whom no one voted for in a primary. She has been in office for the last four years, as part of an unpopular administration whose policies have led to inflation, U.S. involvement in two wars, censorship of social media, and an influx of illegal immigrants. And, that’s not an exhaustive list of what they have done. When asked what she would do differently, she said she couldn’t think of anything. If I’m surprised by anything at this point, it’s that $1B couldn’t buy this election.

Richard Smith

I like Ken Burns too but the difference is I’m willing to directly pay Channel 5.

Sebastian

I appreciate your thoughts , it is my job . I teach high school history . I’m well aware of all of this . MAGA and D-Day have no correlation 😂

Matt

Sorry dude, all respect but the USSR "won" World War II. 80% of the casualties in the European theater were on the eastern front. D-Day and the Allied advance definitely helped bring the war to a close more quickly, but... Check out the battle of Kursk, read Omar Bartov. The myth of D-Day is part of MAGA. And I say this as someone with two grandparents who fought at Market Garden and in the Ardennes.

Adam Guerin

Im a college professor. I use Andrew clips ALL THE TIME to illustrate specific moments in US history, to establish a context that we can then read more on through academic texts. (and the kids think Im cool when I show Andrew and not Ken Burns or some shit)

Adam Guerin

Damn you look a lot like Union General Oliver Otis Howard Andrew!

EAUMI

Compared to Einstein, sure.

Scotty Supermoto

Andrew, I'm so glad you came to Howard's campus and spoke to the students and faculty here. I'm salty I missed you but I'm glad you came and gave us a voice either way.

Kaeleigh Harmon

We get silly with the racism over here.

J Smo

lol oh, youre an idiot, i see.

Wouldpkr

The USA as a whole will be better off under a Trump presidency and that's just something people will learn to accept.

Scotty Supermoto

I think most American's probably aren't familiar with reconstruction, unfortunately. It's something more US citizens should be aware of. I think it'll give more folks hope knowing that we've had a diverse government before and we can/will do so again 🤞🏽

Amanda G

Good interviews. Thanks for speaking with these students and residents. And thank you for pointing out the reconstruction era! It shows that Blacks & Whites actually had a history of... slight unity? It's a shame how that all went out the window. I hope our government looks more diverse in the future. Our government/leaders really should reflect the demographic of our Nation.

Amanda G

From the guy casually dropping "retarded"... You lil goofball.

Avery Cisne

Stay strong.

zuth alron

Hey Andrew, I think this video illustrates a great example of what you talked about earlier where people find it hard to empathize with right wingers. I think it would be good to help people have a less narrow view of one side bad, one side good. My side has the facts, the other side doesn't have the facts.

Kaerakh

I mean absolutely. I teach US history and I recognize and definitely am aware we have a systemic system of oppression and racism . However , saying it’s not great was erroneous. And yes , Obama was cool. However , not perfect . He was the most active president when it came to drone strikes , targeting Yemen, Somalia, and Pakistan more than any other president , 10 times the last . So when it comes to human rights , not the coolest guy outside of our borders

Matt

Two things can be true at once. I agree America has had moments of greatness but it’s not always been great for everyone. I hope we don’t quit just because of this moment we find ourselves in. For me personally, Obama winning was like the greatest moment in my time living in the states. Trump winning twice now is some of the lowest moments for me personally, but it’s not the end like many in the video said. I remain optimistic there will be great times again and hopefully it’ll be great for everyone.

Sebastian

You're also right ;)

Jean-Junior Desaulniers

Bruh the right tried to storm the capitol 4 years ago cuz they didn't win. Talk about cope

The Ders

The american experiment has been fun

Wylcey Keep

You summarized reconstruction better than my AP US history class back in… Oh I think that was 2008. Job well done! I think I need to go back and re-examine reconstruction.

Sebastian

Honestly, probably helped some people. The negative potential impact of another trump presidency has been exaggerated to such an extent that it is creating a public mental health crisis.

Nathan Breitsch

America was great when we saved the world from German invasion in the Argonne Forrest . America was great when we stormed the shores of Normandy to liberate the French from the German claws of oppression. America was great when we invented flight (airplane), when we invented sound and moving picture (Edison and the phonograph). America was great when we told Mr. Gorbachev to tear down the wall to end the Cold War. We have been great , if you don’t acknowledge that you don’t know history . However , we are a falling empire ; which also needs to be recognized

Matt

As a non American, I didn't know that info about reconstruction and the early history/origin of the KKK. That's wild.

Amy Cahoon

I'm Canadian too and I see it as inevitable that Pollievre will become the PM next year. I think that fortunately our laws about women's rights and LGBT rights are much more difficult to reverse on a dime than they are in America, but it still doesn't bode well imo to have a Trump sympathizer as PM. I don't see any way around it tho. People fuckin hate Trudeau or else never think of him at all, he's just been around too long now.

Amy Cahoon

Is that irony I smell?

B Whittaker

Yes it is real but charging people more for gas and other various retarded things do not help. They just cost people money. Money doesn't help the climate

Ty B

Damn the cope is real on the left...

Jean-Junior Desaulniers

Andrew, please do a video on economics. Fix the misunderstandings so many people have (myself included).

GhostxxTurd

Ty B

“This shit is about survival for a lot of people” Ahh yes plz point me to ur warzone ur subjected to everyday We can fix structural issues like racial driven income disparities through a freer economy free of rent seekers, but yea let’s watch $1bn in campaign dollars get thrown at this ludicrousness (and R money too, we have to get $$$ out of politics) and call it “saving the people”

AL

As a Canadian I really appreciate the background on Reconstruction period. I'm pretty worried the same shit will happen here with our "Temu-Trump" Pierre. Sucks. I hope you cover some of Project2025 as/if it unfolds.

Mike Johnston

@AL - Deficits don't cause inflation when the world is denominated in your currency and your GDP grows year after year. What causes inflation is monetary policy such as 60% tariffs on imported goods and tax cuts for the asset owning class. Those additional costs get pushed onto consumers who don't have as elastic spending as really wealthy people and thus have no choice but to participate in the inflationary cycle. Asset owners on the other hand can sit back and enjoy the growth of those assets thanks to that inflationary cycle, all while paying less in taxes on incomes generated by those assets, increasing their leverage more and more.

Carlos

Trump getting to appoint up to 3 Supreme Court justices will have a multi-generational impact...

You don’t think Dems were gonna run huge deficits too? Welcome to modern banking, fed is independent of govt spending but each party spends lmao

Imagine being one of the people who shared the suicide hotline number on social media the day after the election.

Ados black people are in a crazy position … it’s almost like we’re loosing everything our ancestors worked for based on gentrification and the cultural indoctrination that we have that makes a lot of us victims to ignorance and the streets. .. other races beside white ppl also fear us and treat us bad .. but we fought for everyone during civil rights era

DCSHYT

Someone get me a remindme! All the doomsdayers think the worst constantly. Go back to the echo chamber

AL

hard to see what data points to the country being more unified, the popular vote is getting closer as the count is finishing up

Eugene Ko

Last guy said it best “at the end of the day you cant really run on being not Trump”

Karl Hinz

This election speak to Americans giving up on helping the have nots.. new Americans and old DONT want to share the wealth .. I think a lot of ppl from other countries have seen their original countries fall and they don’t want to share wealth

DCSHYT

I'm thankful I was with friends when this went down. We got through it together. It sucks but it's the outcome.

Avatar Juan

I know half of them didn’t go to college or just lack a basic understanding of economics. Can’t wait to pay more for everything under trump!

7+ figures in their investment account*, inflation is going to fck anyone holding cash

Eugene Ko

This is powerful journalism. Especially for your audience . I was out there that night it’s sad …

DCSHYT

thank god she lost, the country is unified in their hatred towards her stupid laugh. The rest of the country does not think like you over privileged college kids <3

Isaac Avacado

Thank you, Andrew 🫶🏼

Kara Bear

I hope ya'll are ready for another bout of inflation and handouts :D Regardless of your stance on politics, these fiscally liberal, socially conservative republicans are about to fck everyone who doesn't have 7+ figures in their bank account. Classism is alive and well in the USA.
