Why are we dunking on Briahna Joy Gray she has occasional lib takes but she's one of the best checkmark posters on the bird site by far.
I think a critical difference between the online right and the online left is that when the right finds a big name that is "on their side", they flock around them and support them, eventually leading them further down their pipeline and radicalizing them. It's positive reinforcement basically, our monkey brains love that. These personalities find a new audience and whenever they say more right-wing shit, they get cheers, so they keep going deeper and deeper.
Meanwhile the left does the opposite. No surprise the big content creators and streamers all become libs, appealing to leftists is just not worth the massive headache it entails because as soon as you say anything out of line, a significant portion of your followers is just done with you.
Basically I think dunking on people like BrieJoy is counterproductive. Audiences influence personalities just as much as vice versa. For all intents and purposes she is on our side, if we want to get anywhere we need to support people like her and radicalize them through positive reinforcement rather than alienating her.

I'll be dead in the cold ground before I defend a Harvard graduate.
Richard Wolff is now officially on notice.
Idk man, I'll defend Conan O'Brien if it's a conversation about Late Night Hosts.
he's the only real funny one. Seth meyers is the only other watcheable one.
:07:
Are you suggesting that leftists personalities turn into conservatives because of Twitter mentions?
I'm suggesting that personalities who might be on the path to become leftists get alienated in part by twitter mentions
Respectfully disagree but appreciate the counterpoint
I don't think she's gonna see these dunks on hexbear dot net
Because she is a succ dem.
How will she learn without feedback?
mockery isn't "feedback"
Yes it is
I don't really see feedback in there. I mostly see right wingers trying to get an own on her by mentioning Virgil.
Okay but parent is lecturing us, not them
Nothing here is "feedback" for her.
Duh? Nobody's talking about BJG reading hexbear
Then they shouldn't scold
?
