I just skimmed Jimmy Dore’s wikipedia… he seems politically relatively progressive, but personally selfish and slightly too open. Maybe I missed something, but supporting Bernie, thinking the democrat party is a shitshow, and saying that comedians’ jobs are easier under republican presidents doesn’t seem super far from “lefty,” though the Overton window is further right in the US.
Is it a different Jimmy dore or is there something else?
Jimmy Dore is an ideologically bereft grifter. He’ll ape some progressive talking points and pretend to support Bernie, but in reality he’s just a dishonest contrarian entertainer pretending to care about the politics because it’s lucrative.
He’s sorta like an Alex Jones type, only his marks are mostly naive leftist people and people as ideologically incoherent as himself.
Look at his username man. He ain’t no Lefty with that name.

That’s not on his Wikipedia page, but it accounts for the disconnect, thanks.
