Thanks for the answer, yea the sad clout-chasing behavior of the big 4 (destiny, va*sh, keffals, and hasan) is a detriment. There is a good amount of dicussion here regarding the "pipeline" for leftist theory that these types of creators do however there is a notable sea-change towards trashing "tankies"
Joke question feel free to disregard; how long until a U.S politician says "tankie" on television?
One of these is not like the others
yeah hasan's primary content is react / news analysis however he has been dipping his toes into it with h3h3 & leftovers and the XQC "debates" but I would say those are the highest sub count political streamers idk I'm open to being wrong on this lol
might have more been a commentary on keffals being a drop in the bucket compared to those 3. even at her peak before the anticommunist/debatelord shit really kicked off she was much smaller.
That makes sense, and I agree but her twitter "presence" it outsized compared to viewer/sub count but for me she is like the quintessential representation of the "left" adjacent political/debate streamer as she is just so craven.
I am not talking about Keffals. Who is in this picture, and who is not?
Edit: This is shopped
ah the based/cringe dichotomy not the high follower count/low follower count
Is that pic even real? I mean it totally checks out but I couldn't find the source on google or tineye weirdly.
Whatever their follower count, the 3 of them are the only streamers named who are taking part in an establishment dem stream stream tomorrow morning
@LiberalScratcher@hexbear.net was the one who posted it so maybe LiberalScratcher knows the source. Apparently it was taken by Brianna Wu
Looking at it again, that's definitely shopped lol, sorry for posting it
dang you're right. they did a pretty good job, by my standards at least. it looks a little off but no one thing made me go "definitely photoshopped" until I realized how uneven the grainyness was across the 3 of them and the background
