This is what they tweeted not long ago:

https://twitter.com/TheYoungTurks/status/906348270280220672

They refer to a PBS survey that shows that white Christians are now a minority in the US.

http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/white-christians-now-minority-u-s-population-survey-says/

For anyone who does not know, the "Young Turks" were responsible for the Armenian Genocide of 1.5 million Armenians, most of whom were white and Christian.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armenian_Genocide

Cenk Uygur routinely downplays and denies the Armenian Genocide. He's an apologist for it. Their response to white Christians being a minority in the US, coupled with what "The Young Turks" did during the genocide, is really ominous and basically a blatant threat.

Cenk is not stupid. He knows exactly what he's doing and what he's saying. Hopefully the left denounces him and his platform of hate.

Their latest Youtube video on the subject matter is getting absolutely demolished by the dislikes, which is good.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhoIeAnUTZA&feature=youtu.be&a=

Unfortunately there's still 5,000 likes on the video, which represents a significant portion of the total ratings.

This is a lie. He denied it a long time ago and has since apologized and acknowledged it for many years.

This is a lie.

He denied it a long time ago and when the pressure of people bringing it up all the time got to him he "apologized" for his original article in which he denied it and said he doesn't want to talk about it anymore because he's not an expert. He never said that he accepts that it happened and he talks about things he's not an expert on all the time on this show, he just want to stop talking about this particular thing that looks really disgustingly bad for him.

Bullshit. It was a disingenuous non-apology.

In a recent video they mentioned it actually. Cenk himself brought up the Armenian genocide. I think it was in response to how ironic it is that erdogan criticized the genocide of muslims in myanmar while turkey itself still denies the armenian and other genocides

It's not my blog. It's Jerry Coyne's blog. He's very respected in his field and in academia in general.

And you are completely dishonest if you really believe you're stating facts. Regardless of what Cenk said in any of his latest videos, as of 2016 everything in Jerry Coyne's blog post was true. Cenk knows exactly what he's doing.

A genocide denier who works on a show named after the perpetrators that committed that very same genocide make a racist video against the race and religion that were the victims of said genocide?

Would you say the same about a Holocaust denier on a show called 'Nazi' saying 'Isreal's getting nuked!'?

"ominous"

"Threats"

Lmao stfu white Christians are the most priveleged and protected people. Forget black, forget Muslims, if you wanna talk persecuted Christians - look no further than middle Eastern Arabic Christians.

Who, by the way, have been practising Christianity for centuries before any white person had heard of Jesus.

So the fact you wanna play victimhood and make it all about *white* Christians is a good way of exposing your prejudices

Ew... TYT regularly sprinkles trashy clickbait stories into their programming, but this one is pretty gross even by their standards.

Buried halfway through the video is this clarification from Cenk:
I celebrate that we're all going to be equal.

That's perfectly reasonable. But I don't think that the identity politics that permeates the rest of the video is especially helpful to the Progressive cause.

TYT are probably the most racist (and I use this term properly) popular channel on Youtube. The constant anti-white (and cop) hating rhetoric coming from that channel is something that continues to destroy any hope that the portion of the left that continues to watch that channel has for any attempt at sanity or reasonable thought (including actual viewers of theirs which have been inspired by said channel to kill cops)

They will essentially always place "white" in a negative way with video titles and either piss around the details if it is any other race (or religion, Islam mainly). They're glorified virtue signalling race baiters (Ana's famous yelling at the screen and saying "fuck" over and over) who constantly steal and plagiarize other regressive leftist outlets with an over-emotional response to anything anti-white.

Cenk and his pathetic dumb as bricks nephew makes me utterly ashamed to be even 1% Turkish - the worst channel on Youtube, easily.
