Yeah, sounds about right. I just watched it now after reading this thread and I think Destiny tbh is very uninformed about socialism and Wolff was basically trying to educate him
I think this is a viable strategy more people should be engaged in. Many of these influencers are politically illiterate and only support their positions because of that illiteracy. They're not like ideological fascists or neoliberals that are politically educated and choose to be cunts because that's what they are.
People like this are in fact flippable. Up until they become educated and then maintain their position people should make every attempt to educate them. There is no reason to cast aside a person until they choose the other side AFTER becoming educated.
There are a number of gains to be made by flipping influencers specifically. If an influencer is flipped their entire audience is also flipped. This goes for communities as well. If a mod team is flipped they will often start work flipping their community.
Targeting the top of these audience<>leader relationships is very viable for building a digital vanguard of a sort. The downside with twitch influencers however is that they are petty-bourgeoise business owners, they are very unlikely to side with the left.
