The Crumbling

The co-hosts are joined again by journalist Kat Tenbarge (Spitfire
News) to discuss how libertarianism intersects with the manosphere,
and double back on the story of how harassment campaigns became
the entirety of how right wing politics express themselves in the U.S.
They talk about Paul Elam, the guy who built the blog "A Voice For
Men," (FKA "the Happy Misogynist"), and how his kids seem to hate
him. They also talk about Men's Rights Activists (MRA's), and Stefan
Molyneux, who really deserves a few episodes of his own for being
such a rank loser.
