This episode of Wisecrack's 8-Bit Philosophy tries to distinguish between haters and real cynics.

Tim Pool on Twitter: "The only thing that separates Antifa from Fascists is nationalism. Its two groups of Authoritarians fighting over the idea of borders."

I appreciated Tim Pool's livestreaming during Occupy, but this sort of "Nazis and the people who fight Nazis are equally bad" centrist schtick seems to characterize his recent work. Fortunately there is an even better alternative in the likes of Unicorn Riot http://www.unicornriot.ninja

Redneck Revolt got some coverage in the Guardian:

"Redneck Revolt is a nationwide organization of armed political activists from rural, working-class backgrounds who strive to reclaim the term “redneck” and promote active anti-racism. It is not an exclusively white group, though it does take a special interest in the particular travails of the white poor. The organization’s principles are distinctly left-wing: against white supremacy, against capitalism and the nation-state, in support of the marginalized."
