I think Haz is entertaining and can appeal to more conservative and/or right-wing leaning people who otherwise would never touch anything to do with communism.
I think their project has potential.
Yes indeed this is the Infrashite collective's PR spiel. Much like how Microsoft helps make the world more sustainable and aid in human progress by delivering cutting edge technological solutions.
In reality, hazzy weinstein is a sad, self-hating fuck who leeches off the douchebag scene on Twitch for the success of the Infrared brand and to gain fame/notoriety. He always gets owned when debating people to the right of him who aren't neocons because they share the same political beliefs on a fundamental level. So, they just have to point out how Haz is an unemployed, depressed, failson with no career and family at 25 years of age and its a W for them because he can't say anything back since both sides use the same moral/political system.
He appeals to right-leaning people because this is the largest demographic on Twitch and because he has a personal hatred his market competitors (Breadtube, Vaush, etc.) His entertainment value comes from his unhinged rants and unfounded self confidence. I personally enjoy watching clips of him use manipulative debate bro tactics to yell at liberals. But at the end of the day, everyone is laughing at him, not with him.
Furthermore, he has admitted to being a conservative multiple times, and shits out right wing talking points such as "muh antifa bad" and "muh progressivism bad". Appealing to conservatives is also a shitty idea because social conservatism is a dying ideology that only terminally online rich teenagers and boomers give any credibility to. The majority of young people are either "apolitical" or "progressive". There is no way that Twitch personalities will ever be able to spur any form of IRL impact (other than making :le-pol-face: unhinged enough to shoot up another school) because serious IRL stuff would necessitate people touching grass for good and stop watching them, thus stopping the flow of revenue. You have to remember that hazzy weinstein is running an entertainment business, not a real movement.
Also, I wanted to encourage folks here to consume media critically and promote a mentality of interpreting what other leftists say in good faith.
hazzy weinstein is not a leftist, and does not act in good faith (upon his own admission, multiple times), so why should we give him the time of day beyond this post or even respect him as a human being? Everyone here for the most part actually does consume media critically, and part of that is recognizing the fact that youtubers and twitch streamers are, at the end of the day, small business owners, and should not be taken seriously beyond a certain point.
