Why did these videos get made? Was it an honest attempt at social justice? A grift? Clickbait? Why were they so disliked? As Marxists I think we can get to the bottom of this.

    Idk what it was but it sucked and I didn't like having them appear every time I forgot to turn off autoplay. That whole era of youtube sucked glad I don't see much from it anymore aside from the occasional "YOU WONT BELIEVE WHAT THIS LIBTARD GAMEDEV JUST SAID" in my recommended once in a while.

    I think this type of content only appeals to liberals who have even tho they have good intentions just end up turning into hypersensitive hall monitors who make minorities uncomfortable and who's understanding of the problem of racism is basically just individual moral failure on the part of dumb/hateful whites. The people who subscribe to this come in some form of these 3 genres:

    1. regular lib path: Racism is just a dumb idea in the battle of ideas. Black Panther and government loans for black jetski dealerships in Idaho or something will solve racism.

    2. cursed lib path: OK if whites are irredeemably dumb & hateful, what if black people just became white? What if they ditched their culture, AKA just started acting like Middle/upper class whites?

    3. Radlib path: OK if whites are irredeemably dumb and hateful, then all that's left to do is banish the offenders and leave those aware of their sin to ritually self flagellate and put their language/behaviour under constant scrutiny.

    None of these are good or healthy World views to have
