9:12Now PlayingI just came across resurfaced clips of Cenk Uygur from 2013 and I had to share them.
Cenk Uygur, the founder of The Young Turks and one of the loudest progressive voices in American media, has built his brand on moral authority: calling out injustice, lecturing about ethics, and positioning himself as a defender of the vulnerable. These clips tell a very different story.
In this video, I break down two specific resurfaced segments: one where Cenk argues for the legalization of a practice that virtually every moral and legal framework in the world condemns, using a deeply flawed consent argument and one where he and his co-hosts discuss rating women and sexual coercion in a way that is genuinely difficult to watch. I also explain exactly why his reasoning is not just wrong but dangerous, and why the ‘just joking’ defense doesn’t hold up.
These clips need to be seen. When someone with this level of media influence holds these views, even in 2013, the public deserves to know.
Key Topics Covered
The Resurfaced Clips: A breakdown of the two 2013 segments, what Cenk said word for word, the context in which he said it, and why the ‘benevolent dictator’ framing makes it worse, not better.
Why the Consent Argument Fails Completely: Cenk’s justification relies on a fundamental misunderstanding of consent, conflating biological reaction with agreement. I walk through exactly why the argument collapses.
The ‘Just Joking’ Defense: Cenk doubled down, provided moral reasoning, and framed it as a genuine belief. That’s not a joke, that’s a position.
The Rating Segment: The second clip involves Cenk and co-hosts discussing rating women in a way that is deeply revealing about the culture inside TYT.
Media Accountability: These clips are a reminder that accountability doesn’t have an expiration date and that what someone says reveals who they are, regardless of when they said it.
