Yeah vaush is a NATO stan and Lockheed, among other defense contractors, have been paid billions by them over the years. There is only one degree of separation here. The irony hardly works at all unless a person pretends these two aren't related. I have to also imagine Vaush has many positive feelings on US military, probably one of those people who thinks the military is socialist because they have benefits
Yeah. Ian is also subtweeting about a trans man who was doxed by kiwifarms. He apparently worked for a company owned by Lockheed or something? All is know for sure is if KF is involved then its toxic.
IIRC basically whoever this is about worked for Lockheed in some capacity for 15 years while doing typical sorta "woke" tweeting about ableism and stuff like that, working for Lockheed was apparently also a direct consequence of nepotism and done with the justification of "Muh health insurance" and putting more fuel on the fire was that they took donations during this period as well. What set this off initially was apparently a take about how its ableist to expect writers to also read frequently(with a broader discourse over reading in general over alternatives like audio books etc), which I guess is what set the fruit fascists off or put enough attention at the right/wrong time to spread the KF thread.
My take, kiwifarms bad, but also you should shut the fuck up about ableism if you are working for a company directly involved in giving tens to hundreds of thousands of people physical and mental disabilities every year, better yet you should quit your job.
Also its pretty much transcended just being kiwifarms shit, the daily mail is writing about how the woke mob is cancelling this person, we're getting twitter takes from people making the "poor impoverished military recruit" spiel but for college grads who cant possibly realize the consequences of working for Mass Murder LC, I'm hearing takes about how theres no difference between getting taxed in an imperialist country and working for people who directly profit every time a bomb is dropped in the global south, theres takes about how you cant blame a trans person for literally anything they do in the name of "survival".
Twitter is designed to reward rage and posting takes that upset people. There are some good accounts, but the site culture has a very toxic undercurrent imo
I think the best approach towards Vaush is simply to acknowledge what he is. A liberal.
The reason all his logic is convoluted is because he is trying to parade himself as a "true leftist" in order to rally newer potential leftists away from becoming informed leftists. All of his goals center around upholding liberalism. He takes liberal ideas and tries to paint and present them with a leftist tint so they seem cool and edgy. He often basically heralds a neo-liberal idea and just says "this is actual based leftism."

One degree of separation? From Nato to Lockheed, right? Because it's companies such as Lockheed that effectively control nato.

telling the ghosts of the children I helped kill that their judgement of me is ableist and toxic
Christ, that is bleak.
We're going to hear about the poor impoverished scab who had to cross the picket line to make ends meet, aren't we?
i'm seeing people claim that this wasn't actually started by kiwifarms, but i have no way to verify this without visiting kiwifarms

Not to mention he was partly responsible for Isabell Fall going back into the closet.

Gonna be honest, Hexbear's algorithm does this too. We need a better algorithm here.
Just follow Twitter for news without tweeting stuff.

Thanks. Didn’t have info on who it was before. Adapting my comments.
His cultists will rabidly defend why V*ush talking over trans women or POC and espousing Nazi Germany talking points is actually effective leftism.

He is just a lib. Plain and simple.
