Political Video: Alt-Right Group SHAMES Members For Liking Porn & Carbs
Left-wing media group Unicorn Riot leaked chat logs and photos from the alt-right group known as the Patriot Front. The white nationalist organization rules over its own members like the fascists they really are, going so far as to require members to log their weight and provide updates on indulging in vices like porn, junk food, or vaping. There's also really into mood boards. Ana Kasparian and John Iadarola discuss on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 6-8 pm ET. http://youtube.com/theyoungturks/live

"It shouldn’t be a surprise that fascists rule other fascists with an iron fist, but that’s the clear takeaway from a massive leak into the internal operations of Patriot Front, a group of white supremacists who swaddle their racism in a preppy Americana aesthetic.
The inner workings of the secretive group were laid bare in the release of their chats and planning documents—400 gigabytes total—obtained and published by Unicorn Riot, a left-wing media collective, late last week.
Many of the group’s roughly 220 members are required to regularly log their weight and fitness regimen, encouraged to take an obsessive and almost disordered approach to their diet, and provide updates about their “bad habits,” like porn and junk food. Patriot Front leaders regularly shame members for not participating enough in chats, skipping meetings, or failing to provide their mandatory fitness updates."

Political Video: Dems Expedite MORE Military Aid To Ukraine
Congressional Democrats and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi are pushing through a bill that would ramp up the U.S.’s military aid to Ukraine as well as laying the foundation for new, harsher economic sanctions on Russia. We can spend unlimited amounts of taxpayer funding on the military, but social spending is where Congress draws the line.
Ana Kasparian discusses on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 6-8 pm ET. http://youtube.com/theyoungturks/live

https://theintercept.com/2022/01/25/ukraine-defense-bill-democrats/
“Democrats in the House of Representatives are planning to expedite a massive bill that would dramatically increase U.S. security assistance to Ukraine and lay the groundwork for substantial new sanctions on Russia — hastening a war-friendly posture without opportunity for dissent as concerns over a military invasion abound.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., told members on a caucus call Tuesday that she’s looking to skip marking up the bill and move it straight to the House floor, setting up the possibility of a vote as soon as early next week, two congressional sources told The Intercept. The sources spoke on the condition of anonymity because they’re not authorized to talk to the press. Pelosi’s office did not immediately reply to a request for comment.
“This is how the space for nonmilitary options gets slowly closed off in Washington, without any real debate,” one of the sources, a senior Democratic aide, told The Intercept."

Political Video: How Capitalism Affects Class, Organized Labor, & Culture
NYU sociology professor and author Dr. Vivek Chibber joins TYT to talk about the links between culture, class, modern capitalism, and labor movements. These topics and more are explored further in his new book The Class Matrix: Social Theory After The Cultural Turn. Ana Kasparian and special guest Dr. Vivek Chibber discuss on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 6-8 pm ET. http://youtube.com/theyoungturks/live
Read more HERE:
https://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674245136
"Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, analysis of class and other basic structures of capitalism was sidelined by theorists who argued that social and economic life is reducible to culture—that our choices reflect interpretations of the world around us rather than the limitations imposed by basic material facts. Today, capitalism is back on the agenda, as gross inequalities in wealth and power have pushed scholars to reopen materialist lines of inquiry. But it would be a mistake to pretend that the cultural turn never happened. Vivek Chibber instead engages cultural theory seriously, proposing a fusion of materialism and the most useful insights of its rival.
Chibber shows that it is possible to accommodate the main arguments from the cultural turn within a robust materialist framework: one can agree that the making of meaning plays an important role in social agency, while still recognizing the fundamental power of class structure and class formation. Chibber vindicates classical materialism by demonstrating that it in fact accounts for phenomena cultural theorists thought it was powerless to explain. But he also shows that aspects of class are indeed centrally affected by cultural factors.
The Class Matrix does not seek to displace culture from the analysis of modern capitalism. Rather, in prose of exemplary clarity, Chibber gives culture its due alongside what Marx called “the dull compulsion of economic relations.”"

Political Video: Dems BLAME Progressives, Biden Staffer For Their Own Failures
President Biden and corporate Dems are blaming their policy failures on White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain, saying that he’s given up too much leverage to Progressives. Apparently, corporate Democrats feel that Klain’s interactions with the House Progressive Caucus have influenced Biden’s decision-making and his agenda. Ana Kasparian discusses on The Young Turks.

"As Joe Biden closed in on the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, top advisers approached him with a careful process for choosing and vetting a potential White House chief of staff. Biden cut them short, pointing to one man whose experience in government outstripped anyone else: “I want Ron.”
But throughout his first year on the job, Ron Klain and his sterling credentials have repeatedly bumped against the unusual challenges of governing in today’s Washington.”

Politics Video: A Design History of Mexico City’s Vecindades | Bloomberg CityLab
These grandiose buildings featuring a central courtyard were originally built to house European aristocracy in the Spanish colony beginning in the 16th century. In the generations since, these residential designs unique to Mexico City tell a story about the city’s development into a megalopolis and the country’s economic and political shifts. The buildings were eventually transformed into multi-family complexes by the Mexican working class with the shared courtyard becoming the communal heart. These relationships gave the vecindades a place in popular Mexican culture from film, to literature to music. Today, the old buildings that remain continue to form a nostalgic, but essential part of what it means to be Mexican.
