Don't look up Ana Kasparian's and Cenk's viewpoints on bail reform and incarceration reform.
Twitter mad man and dunk artiste Adam Johnson took them to task about it - especially their screeching and pearl-clutching over the nebulous crimewave in SF and their lopsided reporting on stores closing down.
Didn't it turn out that there were something incredible like 900 news articles and segments on one instance of shoplifting?
Yeah, it spread everywhere. Like a dancing rat on TikTok - I think it even got onto wobbling pinhead shows like Rogan - with claims that shoplifting was the singular cause for certain stores closing down, when in fact the ownership had already said about three years ago that the stores would be closing due to consolodation or whatever the fuck.
Particularly insidious and, of course, racially tinged.
Don't even need to look it up. One look at their channel gives it away almost immediately.
I really don't get why these people are making up this thing that the left is failing so hard to appeal to alienated young dudes compared to the right.
Every socialist space I've been to, irl or online, has had plenty of dudes, often more than women. Most of them feel alienated from capitalis society (obviously), and many are depressed and lonely. A lot are also sad about stuff like not being able to get a girlfriend or attention from women, but they still chose to become left-wing because they're not reactionary and/or morons.
Socialism is still a small political niche in most capitalist countries, reactionary conservatism is not, that's why it gets more attention. That we're failing to appeal to this specific group of sad men more than other members of society is a made-up narrative that's not consistent with reality.

Because they're both psyops lol. We shouldn't take anything they say seriously.
It's a , whatchamacallit, Manufactured Consent. If it's not true, just repeat it over and over until the apathetic moderates believe it due to "reading it somewhere".
This is from a chud site and heavy CW for rampant transphobia, but the headline of the article is fucking gold.

If I get a nickel every time a beardy American streamer chastises the "mainstream" left for failing to "appeal" to American men and that their solution is to essentially adopts right wing social positions, I would have two nickels.
I cannot think of anyone less suited to describing a positive masculinity than Vaush.
Dude is literally a fucking creep waste-of-space.
I try to stay as far away from YouTube personalities as I possibly can. I've never watched the show of this "Vaush" and everything I know about him is just through memes and people making fun of him.
If I were to describe him as a ":vote: Democrat lesser-evil anti-communist closet-reactionary" would I be accurate?
Even worse, claims to be a libertarian socialist. So a communist anti-communist that thinks that NATO is true socialism.
I haven't seen that much of his stuff, but that seems pretty accurate. He's the person the pejorative "radlib" was meant for.
He is also a greasy sex pest who threatened to rape a woman who had been a prior victim to sexual assault when she refused to fuck him. His cultists then essentially harassed her off the internet.
I barely got a minute in and the term "whiteboy" is being used unironically. Nope. Nope Nope.
Ana looks like a bleached out version of Jeanine Pirro in that pic, and their ideologies are probably pretty similar these days as well.
I really like how a terminally online streamer who watches videos for a living is brought on as an expert
lol are there any pictures of the guy where he doesn't look like he's been caught jacking it to CP?
