    If there’s one thing I think leftists are kind of good at, is that we tend to hatewatch things a LOT less.

    Look at Velma, it attracted loads of fascists who hatewatched a show that DARED to make the usual potshots they make at minorities right back at white men. We weren’t all rushing to see Mr. Birchum just to hatewatch it. We learned our lesson from stonetoss.

    Now, the few times I see any leftists discussing CHUD media is if it’s decades old and we’re examining it to understand CHUD psychology. Like a copy of Mein Kampf but full of historians pointing out when Hitler is bullshitting the reader.

      Tbf dunk_tank and by extension this comm are both basically hatewatching for social media posts. I'm not making a value judgment on that (I mod dunk_tank lol) but leftists absolutely have the same proclivity for ragebait, I think most terminally online people do, we're just not as publicly frothing as reactionaries are because leftists generally don't try to make careers/money off it

      Morbius flopping twice is a good example of how hatewatching like this is exclusively a chud phenonmenon.

        I haven't seen that movie and the amount of memes over it made me question what was even real. The early use of deepfakes to turn the memes into realistic looking edits didn't help.

        Like I don't know if Jared Leto actually said "It's morbin' time!" because I've seen clips of him using that line before morbing all over the place and killing 20 goons or whatever.

      In order to stay pure, our hatred requires only for us to continuously bear witness to the capitalist class brutalizing nature and destroying endless lives in pursuit of greed.

      Chuds aren't principled, they are very frivolous in their hatred. If they didn't constantly doomscroll 4chan and twitter while sinking progressively deeper into reactionary black holes within the youtube algorithm, they'd very quickly forget who they're even supposed to hate and why.

        Chud propaganda is like those negative-space pictures, it traces a perfect outline of capitalism by telling them to hate anything and everything except capitalism.

        It's called the immortal science for a reason. I'm jealous chuds have to go out of their way to find material they hate/get offended by. You can't consume any media in the English-speaking world without being exposed to capitalist brainworms. I wish my Spanish was better or that I spoke Korean and Mandarin so I could watch commie movies 😞
