    It sounds like you knew him well, were really close to him & he told you this personally?

    I don’t need to know him personally. He spent 8-12 hours daily expressing his ideas into a microphone and recording it.

    He was utterly disingenous. To a guy like Charlie Kirk, Cenk is an easily manipulated rube. You’ll notice that TYT has effectively coopted the progressive movement to elevate rightwing voices. Like, if you are citing Cenk and their interactions with Kirk, you must be like, an actual idiot, because Cenk has proven to be one of the biggest frauds on the entire internet.

      TYT didn’t coopt the entire progressive movement. They are a voice in the progressive movement, which anyone is capable of doing, including yourself. You claim Cenk is one of the biggest frauds on the entire internet but don’t provide any evidence to support that. Cenk has been consistent, honest & fair. He has shown strong moral character & that seems to make you mad.
