Mostly talking about stuff like breadtubers, chapo, and media personalities like that, I can kind of tell why people like Bernie and Jezza where they're at. Is it the added wealth being a popular media personality gives you, the need to give a consistent product, the need to appeal to a wide breadth of people, and so on?

edit: also props to Brett at RevLeft for continuing to radicalise himself as the show has gone on

    Yes I think this explains why all of us here have this experience and that is not universal, but what I think I'm trying to understand why there is at least a segment of their listeners that move on, and they (and I guess the majority of their other fans) don't. Makes sense that all of their listeners have not moved on because then they would either be forced to shift as well or disappear.
