Some people don’t believe me when I try to warn them about the content creator grift. I don’t care, I’m coming for all of them if they start spouting shit like this to their audience. They have a responsibility towards their viewers.

Second time I see him tweet shit like this.

At this point he should just stop pretending he’s any sort of leftist. His mental health will thank him.

archive link so he can’t scrub it off the internet: https://archive.ph/XWZD6 (still loading as of posting but should be ready eventually)

    The problem is precisely that he spends too much time talking to an American audience. There is a broader international audience out there than just America. Maybe talk about how people in Europe can organize. You have two out of three people on the podcast who are not from the US. Yet i hear little to nothing about the politics of their countries. The US centrism of the podcast is off the charts.

      What really hit the nail on the head is that the most likely reason why he’s not active in Serbia is that he has a cushy job at a big company and wouldn’t want to risk losing everything by being recognised as an open leftist activist

        As always: look at where someone’s material interests lie. It’s the same with Hasan Piker. I still don’t understand why so many leftists continue to defend him when it is clear that his material interests now align with the substantially wealthy group of self-employed petite bourgeois that he surrounds himself with. That explains why he is so focused on Democratic party activism.

          I think people like that he’s undoing anti-China propaganda, because it’s such a controversial topic you feel like somebody who does that has to be a comrade through and through, which isn’t true unfortunately

            Is he? He keeps insisting that China did a “cultural genocide” on the Uyghurs, and he constantly talks about how China is too repressive of free speech.

              Oh really ? I thought it was the opposite. Since I don’t actually watch him I based it off something someone said to me, and since he went to China and was interviewed by Li Jingjing I assumed it was true
