In this week’s episode, we discuss wheat and gluten; MAGA, Trump, Elon, and Massie; and elephants. First: the end to the first round of Bret’s European wheat experiment: what does it mean that he can eat European wheat, but not American wheat? Then: does Trump misunderstand the coalition that brought him to the presidency a second time? Will going after Thomas Massie be a strong move, or a bad move? Does Elon have too much power, and is he misusing it? How does masculinity manifest in this administration? Finally: elephants and their love of showers.

Looks like Jimmy Dore didn't have a problem defining Woke Right with 100x more clarity than James Lindsay. Neither did Dave Smith.
Apparently all you have to do is swap "racism, sexism, and homophobia" with "anti-Semitism" and run the same playbook. Censorship, cancellation, firing, guilt tripping etc. flow freely after that.
Bear in mind, these people like Dave Smith and Jimmy Dore, they don't hate Jews - Dave IS one - they just hate the government of Israel. Which is easily as diabolical as our own, fair.
