"The girlsll go back to being socialists, Matt Christman will become magically unstroked, Stavll come back to cum town?"
"Maybe the only people to come out of the "dirtbag left" moment in a somewhat dignified position."
"The whole appeal of the dirtbag left and the semi-ironic Trump support was everyone being tired of how the DNC canonised Obama and Hillary when they were very flawed. While Trump was clearly very flawed, owned it and nobody could ignore how scummy and sleazy he was."
"I say "dirtbag left" because there isn't a great term that encompasses all of them, but all of the ugly bearded guys who were very into chapo and Bernie 6 years have clung to a stagnant culture that's just gotten lamer and lamer. I don't know how many more early-30's "d*des rock steely dan david lyn"
"The horrifying realization that knowing this much about the dirtbag left space is the same as an undiagnosed autist teenager reciting Kingdom Hearts lore to his mother in the car."
"Thought this one was interesting as of course the dirtbag left is inextricably linked to the pod and sub and many of us have pondered how Biden's inauguration among other 'moments' will have affected the 'scene' or whatever else you'd want to call it."
"Now, not only Anna and Dasha but all their "dirtbag left" friends all seem to be sucking Trump's dick so hard. It is especially frustrating because this subreddit makes me aware that I am not the only one feeling this way, but there is nothing anyone can do about it. They are just going to become mo"
"The dirtbag left has been trying to rehabilitate his image into a cool, interesting politician and giving him 50 million a month but he seems content if he loses by saying "at least we tried" and endorsing the person who beat his ass while we still have no Healthcare."
"Increasingly I'm learning that I have a lot of friends that listen to Red Scare and other 'dirtbag left' podcasts, and they're pivoting away from the hyper-woke virtue-signaling language they were using just a year or two ago."
"Pouting at the camera while it cycles through the options aaand.. FUCk. Stavros Halkias again? I let out a sigh of frustration and experience a moment of clarity "I'm a 28 year old woman, what the fuck am I doing?". I compartmentalise that thought, reset the filter and try for a fifth time.. and.. O"
"But it's been funny how being a leftist has become passé now. A lot of people who were really into the dirtbag left 5 years ago are now seemingly anti leftist. Anna came about via the dirtbag left and now openly denies any connection to it."
"Instead the historic 'dirtbag left' pedigree/orientation seems to have been reaffirmed, more blackpilled and cynical than ever, but bolstered by a sense of vindication from the failure of the idpol project that so obsessed liberals and the 'left' for the past decade."
"The whole 'dirt bag left' was a psyop to convince liberals that Bernie was too radical, and Adam was the man behind the curtain."
"Simp for Trump, simp for Kyle Rittenhouse, always criticize Democrats/liberals/lefties and always sympathetic to right wingers and conservatives, usually anti vaccine, never talk about what their supposed left wing views are. They have everything in common with right wingers/conspiracy theorists."
"All the neoliberal lunatics from the BLM era of 2020-2022 feel much less relevant now (not entire irrelevant either). A lot of my lamer liberal friends all agree with a lot of dirtbag-left talking points about economics."
"indoctrinating Gen Z will I think be one of the most important goals of the 'Dirtbag Left' in the coming years, after Bernie (ideally) wins the presidency, which of course that NYT article didn't care to mention. I teach in a middle school and PC liberalism gets pushed on these kids so hard. They're"
"She said you're a heavily online disappointment and the dirtbag left era is over."
"There ain't gonna be a revival of the dirtbag left or a new Bernie because that died with millennial guys…"
"in essence its just saying "yeah, we're leftists, but like, edgy ones." love bernie but the guy's a yokel, its time to drop the chapo-speak"
"Nick Mullen - lost his money to crypto, drinking again, depressed
Anna Khachiyan - permafried themselves into racism through contrarianism
Matt Christman - brain short circuited"
"Over the summer, whilst in an anti-woke Twitter hole, I am introduced to the so-called "dirtbag left." I start by listening to Red Scare. I learn about a whole new side of the site, consisting of people who fight valiantly for free healthcare and the right to make racist jokes."
