My best friend from second grade got me watch a Rubin video with the IDW. It was like a hour long circle jerk where no one says anything particularly interesting or noteworthy. We paused it a few times to talk about our thoughts. After it ends, dude starts talking cancel culture explaining that if everyone gets canceled no one will speak, then talks about the absurdity of 36 genders.

I almost lost my patience when he was waffling on giving nazis platforms.

Any advice to move from chud central ?

    Just show him an episode of chapotraphouse where they make fun of a liberal, someone who's super annoying. Then with any luck coax him towards an episode on ben shapiro or jordan peterson. If you sat through an hour video with him, he should sit through an hour podcast with you (marketplace of ideas). Maybe go to a youtube video with funny pictures going by idk.

      I like this idea, but I might go breadtube instead of chapo, since he seems to like watching videos. Contrapoints has a good one on Jordan Peterson, for example.

        Yesss I forgot about her video on Peterson. I’m worried that if I go for him though it might turn him off because he is a fan smh

        I think I’m going to go against Shapiro since he is the low hanging fruit at least in relation to the video we saw yesterday

          Yeah plus if he has "36 genders lol" brain he will disregard her opinion because she is "mentally ill" or some bullshit.
