Apologies to the offended for posting ContraPoints, didn't know that YouTuber, just thought the meme was funny.

    Medium-hot take - save for a few, basically all of the OG breadtube people have become self-absorbed and self-indulgent libs.

      So many "leftists" have gone from "never biden" to "we have to vote out drumf", it's kinda sad.

      Renegade cut has pretty much always been solid imo. He’s my one special boy.

      There are also a few of the bigger ones that just put out content so slowly that it feels more like they just haven’t had enough of a chance to fuck up yet.

        Renegade Cut is definitely still good - along with some more people like Jack Saint or Down the Rabbit Hole.

        I think it's funny that at some point Big Joel tweeted that he disliked the breadtube label and that he felt its demise was imminent - it's quite true that it kind of imploded once it reached critical mass and you could start to tell who were part of that "cultural zeitgeist" and who weren't.

          yeah, and i wouldn't call big joel a breadtuber, he only really came up a few years ago, after breadtube was a thing, and never really tried to be a part of it. he's just a good video essayist in my book, same as folding ideas or lindsay ellis.

      Not really, just most of us moved much further left since we first started watching any of them.

      I'm continuously surprised when people are shocked and go "this breadtuber is a lib," like, they were all always soc-dems, dem-socs, or maybe soft socialist in some cases -- I don't know where people are getting this idea that they were some kinds of revolutionary communists in the past and just now are showing their lib tendencies?

        Super fair point, I think I shitposted instead of explaining myself correctly - I guess on my end I kind of just feel that some of the now bigger creators are more concerned about flash/presentation than content. And yeah, of course Natalie was always really into presentation and Olly is really enjoying finally being able to produce the sort of content he wanted to with his theatre background and more the power to them but I feel that the actual arguments/discussions have fallen to the wayside a bit. Question of taste I guess!

    the only argument ive heard thats even halfway convincing reason to vote for biden is that biden might be the easier of the two to overthrow but it wasnt that convincing so i voted la riva

    the people that really make me angry are the ones that think voting is the end all be all. i can respect voting for biden and you think it wont change anything, but the people that think it will change anything are on the 9th level of psychopathy

        Voting local elections and for/against laws is important. Just stop paying attention to Biden/Trump.

      Yeah I don't think there's anything wrong with voting for Biden, I've never told people not to, but I know people who think that literally any criticism no matter how valid is just playing into the Republicans' hands.

      You can respect the pointless support for Bourgeoisie Democracy.

          breadtubers to leftists: what are you? An idiot sandwich.

          Breadtubers to right wing chuds: oh dear, oh gorgeous. if I just spend more time punching down and left maybe you'll be on our side 🥰

    She made yet another twitter thread where she continues to strawman counterarguments, completely avoids international issues, then claims that Trump is like the #1 existential threat, and leftists need to prioritize getting him out. It's fuckin mental seeing the libs all clap her on the back. All twitter leftists think they the be all end all on progressiveness.

    You people are mad. I still stan Natalie. At some point, she'll start doing things just to spite and trigger you, and I'll be sure to grab my popcorn.
