    Holy shit it never ends. I remember hearing similar bullshit in the 90's. Just replace Vaush with Ayn Rand or Milton Friedman. This guy is projecting hard with the "most tankies are former Evangelicals." Wasn't aware that the local Communists in my overwhelmingly Catholic country were fundies all along. Most of them follow Liberation Theory. This asshole probably isn't even aware of what that is because Vaush hasn't read the Wikipedia article on it for him.

    Vaushites love pulling the "America bad" whiny shit but will do the same with "Russia/China" bad without a shred of irony.

    I do worry about the future of leftists in NATO countries that do everything online. Why bother reading a boring ass book when I can watch a Twitch streamer give me theory in a fun and entertaining way? He sounds intelligent and is so sophisticated. Definitely not a geographic dumbfuck who thinks Portugal is in South America.

    The only thing that gives me a little hope is knowing Vaush is disproportionately represented online. Hasan has over three times the popularity of him and is more well known among "normies." I know Hasan fans and have met a few in person. I've never met a Vaush fan outside of an online forum. Maybe they're more common in NATO countries that lap his shit up.

        Even if he's not that big he's clearly being groomed to be some figurehead of the "libs who think they're socialists cuz they want free weed and legal college" movement.

        The groomer becomes the groomed.

        And how many people watched it? It doesn't matter how much they prop him up if barely anyone outside of niche lanyard circles pays any attention.
