these people had important contributions to make in their day, but they're fossils. and, they're still the faces of the left.
a part of the problem is this shady network of fake vloggers setup by cenk uygur, who attempt to dominate the left via youtube algorithms, but really just represent the status quo. they can win in easy seats, but they get bludgeoned everywhere else. consistently. they run the media so they can project nonsense, but there's no actual movement, there.
more promising is the undercurrent of anti-authoritarian voices - glenn greenwald & max blumenthal being two of the more promising personalities. but, this fake vlogger network needs to get out of the way, or it's just going to screw everything up. and, it might even want to screw everything up...
