But a bunch of failchildren that have never had actual jobs and met each other posting on social media should be a little less judgmental of people finding a community online to develop ideas.
All of the hosts have delusions of grandeur and think that they should really be on a Majority Report type show or have columns in a respectable publication by now
Its kind of amazing watching them turn into the NYT op-ed writers they criticize. Like they are just as hostile and dismissive of criticism now as a David Brooks.
All of the other podcasts with dedicated fan communities (Q-Anon Anonymous, Street Fight, Trashfuture, etc.) generally have a very positive relationship with their fans. Importantly they take criticism and suggestions from fans seriously and work to address it, thus making the show better. They would definitely get more patreon bucks if they didn't actively express disgust at their own fan base.
Part of me finds it difficult to find the line between edgy bit and honest feelings towards fan, but them calling the fans pain piggies felt like a joke the vast majority of the time
Yep. But IMO she's right here. And when someone has a good take, "you don't have the right to judge me" is not a good counter-argument at all, especially when you judge them right before.
Never listened to the podcast and don't know shit about what they say, so they may totally be how you described them. But it doesn't matter. All I know is that "Virgil is back on twitter" and that "Amber". And to some extent, this is an example proving her point.
Imagine her replying "they should be less judgmental" to critics made against her here (which is not what the dumpster line is about for me). People would just say it's yet another bad take from Amber.
It's the hypocrisy of Chapo hosts meeting on Twitter and becoming satisfied with their success due to that, and then turning around and saying that meeting other like minded people online is garbage.
No, you know, it's not the hypocrisy, it's that they don't even see the comparison because they have such contempt for anyone else online, when that's where they came from. Maybe the correct takeaway from this is that Chapo is garbage too, but I'm sure that wasn't Amber's point.
No, they are not, that is a brand. They are immensely successful now and mostly had media careers before the pod. Amber is a professor (not a huge deal ik but impressive to me)
I like amber.

You either die a Chapo, or live long enough to see yourself become an op-ed writer
I think True Anon holds some contempt for its fans.....but I can’t tell if it’s a bit or not

TrueAnon loves their fans

Matt and Amber definitely. No one knows where the fuck Virgil came from.
He went to Cornell
Wait, they’re failsons? I dunno their personal history, just kind of stumbled into the sub and listened to some more recent episodes.
