The whole phenomenon of Internet dipshits rubbernecking at Chris-Chan's life is one of the most depressing things in the history of online culture. There are probably kids into this pointless spectacle today who were born after the "saga" (fuck off) started.
It's kind of annoying to actually live in a world where tankies don't exist, politically speaking, but 99% of the ranty-complainyness targets them. I guess I should pass on that series then.
The first set of episodes where Evan's is narrating what societal collapse would like is fine. They changed the format to broader discussions after that and it was fine for a while until it became apparent Garrison spends a shit load of time on reddit.
Is that the little pipsqueak he adopted from the Portland protests
yeah I fucking hate that uneducated little shit
Imagine if Brace Belden started bringing some random 18-year-old he found on the streets of San Francisco onto the show
It's just weird
His name is Yung Chomsky and he's a treasure

I only listened to the first "season" where Evan's using real world experiences to talk about a collapse in the US. It was haunting, but good.
Saw later it was getting more episodes and I wondered what it'd even been be about, disaster porn? Seemed like just trying to get more money off what was apparently a successful project. Like forcing a sequel.
How the hell are tankies even part of the focus? Disagree with them, ok, but they're not a big force now ( 😞 ) so why bother and in a collapse scenario, you're just preemptively creating enemies on the left who will almost certainly be doing their damnedest to help the worst affected and organize resistance to the actual horrors outlined in the first episodes? Fuuuuuck off, at least wait to shit on them till we're in the shit and people have to contend with some tankie formation existing and building power.

There are no communists in China. They’re all brainwashed to say they’re communist. Only capitalists can voluntarily say they like capitalism
Yeah that's never who people mean when they say tankie. They mean someone you don't like twitter.
Xi has control of the party but there are millions of liberals nonetheless
