Breaking Points is an independent news program hosted by Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti. CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC are ripping us apart and making millions of dollars doing it. We don't have soulless billionaires or corporations backing our high end TV production, but we do have YOU. Together we're creating better, more insightful news to help us understand the world.

I just got to the part in the AMA where Saagar defends the assertion that (crying wolf is being used wrong here. I don’t like the liberal way the story is being employed, there were people shouting
“ICEBERG”) anyways, those “crying wolf” about Trump and fascism bear responsibility for trump and fascism. yeah Enjeti is unhinged and I am here for it.

Every boomer that didn’t get excited about contributing ideas, I repeat didn’t get excited, about getting involved with whatever the tactic of the day was during Occupy, DISGUSTED ME. They never shouted iceberg in the 70s (the conscience objector from the 50s got nothing but love from me), and in 2011 all they did was get in the way and say why something wouldn’t work. THOSE BOOMERS BEAR RESPONSIBILITY. They cosplayed as watchers fifty years ago and now they assumed we were going through the motions too! 350.org and your boy Al Gore said our future was on fire for fucks sake you thought this was a game?! Charts on how the wealth gap went up since the boomers got into office must’ve been MIGHTY UNCOMFORTABLE.

What does that have to do with warning people this shit was coming? We don’t bear responsibility for not being able to convince somebody because in a trial there is a judge to call bullshit on one party and telling us WE were the pedophile because some of us put on makeup and insist on reading to kids, while the house GOP was run by a pedophile during the bush years? There was no one to tell Trumpers to shut up because being ignorant and proud is the most American thing they can do besides rolling coal by every pedestrian that doesn’t look homeless.

I sold a camper to guy who genuinely believed there were litter boxes in the school districts restrooms. I was fired from that job because I remembered the cheapest gas I ever bought was the day the oil companies thought Clinton was going to be president.

No Saagar, we don’t bear responsibility, and the idea that we might is why we get STONED EVERY FUCKING MORNING.

Saagar, I’m 38 and watched Colin Powel’s address to the UN in my freshman English class. How dare you implicate my English teacher in the crimes of dick Cheney just because you were a fan before you weren’t.

Save Ukraine. 🇺🇦
