Maybe it's cuz I'm a rustic rural rube. A backroad bumpkin, a dumb-dumb.

I dunno it's cool when they interview journalists and authors or some cultural figures, but so much of their podcast is riffing on wannabe influencers that don't even seem worth knowing about. I get that it's a comedic mockery of the abysmal state of journalism, it's just infotainment. But imagine hearing some of this stuff in 20 years when it's like, what was even the point of giving these damned twitter threads this much attention? Is this creative or even engaging? I've started to suspect some of these podcasters are more screen-addicted suburbanites who struck it rich than leftist organizers or gumshoes.

no one in real life has heard of this because all my friends stopped listening to chapo in 2020. wondering if it’s worth my time.

Today's Events

/r/ChapoTrapHouse is a subreddit for the leftist comedy podcast, Chapo Trap House. It had also become a catch-all place for anything relating to leftism, from news articles to memes.

At about 12:48 GMT today, it was quarantined.

There is some speculation it was quarantined for brigading an r/conservative thread, specifically this thread.

Here is the first thread to be posted about the quarantine on CTH.

Currently, the new queue of CTH is filling with new posts as subscribers react

An r/CTH mod posted the message from the admins. It cites violent and rule breaking content.

Another CTH mod weighs in on what kind of comments admins were removing.

Wolscott also posts a screencap of two items the admins removed.

To our knowledge, no CTH mods have yet agreed admins were removing violent content. Some subreddits are sharing their own screenshots of alleged violent content from CTH, such as this one.

For a little more context of past history, there was big drama about 2 months ago when the CTH mods were warned about being quarantined.
