So Caleb Maupin is now labelled a Nazbol. That seems to be the newest buzzword that means 'bad person' And i say that, because if you go look at the comments, not one person mentions anything that he did that is nazbol-ish.
And now Thought Slime, the Serfs, and now apparently Luna Oi, and Noncompete are attacking or cancelling or cutting ties with him.
So, opinions? On Caleb, or the others?
I value your opinion as communists, because something similar happened to me, involving alleged communists.
That sure clarifies things. Thanks.
So i googled the first on your list as i had a bet with myself hes plugging a patreon like so many other 'left' grifters
Oh what a surprise
Tbf explicity ML youtubers have Patreon too. Not much wrong in wanting to make some money.
Workers should be compensated for their labor. Yes, that means that communist and anarchist YouTubers could, and I think, should, have Patreons. Especially if you refuse to run ads, which Thought Slime does.
How are you supposed to make leftist content? Running ads? That seems hypocritical. Working a day job? That's fine, but you'll but have less time to make content. Honestly I think Patreon is probably the best way because everyone gets the content for free, the creator gets compensated for their labor.
Of course, once we live in a classless, moneyless, stateless society, then the conversation would be different, but YouTubers got rent due every month, too.
