Ive always felt the dude cared about money way too much
the black nationalism debate is genuinely one of the worst things I've ever seen in my life
"colonized people claim to be oppressed, and they are. white nationalists claim to be oppressed, but they aren't. these are the exact same because they say the same thing."
"people who are being colonized have a right to 'self-determination'? hmmm that's a neo-nazi dogwhistle, I think you might be a neo-nazi because you said 'self-determination'."
"colonized people rising up against the oppressors? hmm that sounds like germany committing industrial scale mass genocide against jewish people don't you think? [dreamworks face smirks into camera] no i dont think it matters that jews aren't colonizers and were instead an oppressed minority group."
"jews in the holocaust? white people in post-apartheid south africa? mm basically the same thing dont you think"
Who could imagine a guy who's screen name used to be "Irish Laddy" would have bad opinions on race
The idea behind “principled” takes like this is that if you can build a robust enough model of the world in your head, you can just plug information in and good takes will come out the other end. It’s basically the liberal idea of society, but internally.
Also, this is what happens when you learn about nationalism through osmosis via Internet nazis.

Wait so nazis lie about being an oppressed peoples in search of freedom from their oppressors? :shocked-pikachu:
Exactly- he's a bully of the type that right wing internet media relies on to create an illusion of strength. At first I was fascinated by what a left-wing bully would even look like... but then it turns out he's an empty husk with no actual theory beyond the reactionary.
they should call themselves the columbine left. big midwest psycho energy in there.
While I can see :funny-clown-hammer:-man committing a shooting, I don't remember the columbine kids molesting any children.
When V*ush got off Tinder, Tacoma wept (of relief).
Unfortunately, he only stopped using it after finding out there were no children on the platform. :libertarian-alert:
:funny-clown-hammer: but also :party-sicko: hell yeah roast the tacoma toddler transgressor
All Twitch debaters rely on how clips work to make themselves seem smarter than they actually are. You would have to watch a bunch of Vaush to realize how bad he actually is at debates, but the clips he posts are always of his own few good points or of exceptionally bad people who call in.
His biggest liberalism is that he still fetishizes liberal credentials. That's why he thinks that rent control is bad - all of the economists say it is, so it must be true. Nevermind that the economic premises that lead to that conclusion are founded on pure :zizek-preference:, if the people with the degrees say it it must be true.
Still laugh when I remember on one of his streams he called himself something like the 'Evolved Noam Chomsky'
The first (and only full) video of his I watched was before I became truly radicalized and had no clue who he was, but Breadtube (lol) liked him so I figured why not. He was talking about all the Smash players who were getting outed for SA and being predators, and he actually had a really thoughtful, insightful monologue talking about the problem and how to address these issues of toxic masculinity and consent.
The next thing I watched from him was the "tacoma wept" clip :what-the-hell:
Then I found you beautiful people and got educated on his bullshit real quick. Fuck that clown man
That whole schtick of acting like you’re above toxic masculinity while supposedly embodying an alternative is a big draw. A lot of disaffected young people rightfully see incels as cringe but still want answers to the questions they claim to address. What I’m trying to say is that Vaush is the Jordan Peterson of Internet leftism
of Internet leftism
if we're gonna give it to people like him, leftism truly is a meaningless term
And before anyone says it, I know, :astronaut-1: always has been
Internet leftism is a marketing demographic based around a shared identity. It has nothing to do with an individual’s relations to communist praxis or organizations. In this sense of the word, Vaush is one of the most prolific Internet leftists alive right now.
I have no idea about the timeframe tbh. The p*do/sex pest shit plus seeing his face constantly in online leftist circles completely killed my desire to spend a single second longer reading up on him.
V*ush is a white settler, dunno how much more there is to say.
It does bother me that he is a simply a rich white boy and likely juced up by by his family connections and no one makes fun of him for it.
Weather or not it is true, it would be a funny thing to do.
Plus I think that would lead to him havibg his girl on more and I feel like she'd be more interesting
He does not allow even ironic yt bashing. That’ll get you banned from chat
Yeah, honestly growing up lower middle class myself, that shit erks me as well.
Vaush is borderline upper class and not simply upper middle, so that shit makes me think this is all a grift for him propped up by his wealthy ass Beverly hills parents
I don't know why the Serfs still associates with him. Hakim's breakdown videos of V*ush should be reason enough.
I wish they didn't. I'm trying to dig up the master thread of all his p*do shit for an argument I'm having, and this just reminds me how disappointed I am in them for doing that.
It is so disappointing. And it legitimizes him sweeps his behavior under the rug. I hope you win that argument or you piss them off.
If you're still having trouble finding the master thread, lemme know.
Please link me, comrade. Particularly the threads about him being a sex pest, but his shitty takes are also welcome. That was the one thing I've been telling people "nah, there actually are reciepts for all this."
