both Vaush and people like the chapos are considered part of the 'dirtbag left', but I don't have nearly as many problems with CTH as I do vaush. What separates the two? my theories are that people like xanderhal and Vaush seem to take marginalized groups for granted and advocate for power structures in society, but the chapos have seen through the veil of neoliberalism.
"dirtbag left" doesn't describe a coherent ideological stance. it's at best an affect, and one which hasn't described a single large posting faction since the 2020 primary. the chapo pod isn't really much like the subreddit (rip), which isn't much like vaush or idk fuckin hasan piker.
idk maybe it's just sending death threats to politicians on twitter, which we can all agree is good.
