It feels like every time I find a podcast about security/networking/technology the hosts end up saying some pretty off-color stuff, or I look them up and they also host right wing podcasts. Are there any that are more leftist, hosted by LGBT peeps, or at least not actively bigoted ?

    Besides the mentioned hating on NY, during last two elections he supported trump and republicans, bashed democrats and just leaned into that that whole saying something conspiracy related by saying “I dunno” which has been an almost dog whistle of support while trying to act open minded. I don’t believe he’s republican but his move to Texas and being anti government kinda points him in a certain direction.

    Obviously that’s all fine of him to have those views. I just don’t like hearing it during a board repair or right to repair video.

      Do you have a citation on Rossman supporting Trump?

      I can’t say I’ve heard him express any political opinions outside of the fairly narrow lanes of right-to-repair and regulatory abuse.

      That is quite big misrepresentation of Louis’ views.

      I get it that you don’t like his views, but for claiming something like this it would be nice of you to provide links.

      If you watched him for years, he is pretty clear what he hates about NYC and for experience he had I don’t think anyone can blame him.

      He is also not anti government, my feeling is that he wants government that helps people and business insted of making life harder.

      I don’t like all his views, but I prefer videos with some opinions so I know it is human being over there.

      Of course I might be totally wrong, but at least he never sad anything against any group of people.

        He’s a self proclaimed libertarian. Espoused and supported libertarian politicians like Larry Sharpe. Kinda funny considering his adamant support for R2R.

        Probably a knee jerk reaction to living in the fascist state of NY.

        I like Louis and try to ignore the political stuff outside of R2R.

        People need to stop just not listening to people because they don’t like their associated political party and just take what they say at face value.
