  • Truly an institution

    Chapo was an invaluable part of my political foundation. I don’t think I’m exaggerating when I say this show radicalized me and several of my friends. I know it’s hard to imagine a revolution in this burger reich, but I do know that at the very least there is comfort hearing people who think like me and hopes for organizing to work towards a better future
