      Luna isn't breadtube. She's an ML, and there's plenty of ML channels that have no connection to that community. Hakim's another example.

        Fair enough, but if we're only counting anarchists as part of Breadtube that only leaves like three people lol

          Breadtube is a community of youtubers who get on eachother's videos, do high production video essays (often with lots of pop culture critique), and say "capitalism is lame yo" without generally much political content. It's not just every leftist on YouTube, and it trends towards anarchists and SocDems.

          And definitely not a breadtuber. I know them from back when we were /r/socialism mods together and they wouldn't ever let themselves be lumped in with Lindsay Ellis.

              I think they banned Hakim, too, or at the very least the userbase there is very hostile to him. Same with BadEmpanada. Nothing worse you can do on there than refute imperial propaganda (though I think BA415 is not very good at doing that tbh).

                white leftists don't want to listen to the perspective of a Leninist PoC in a third world country? Say it ain't so!

      Luna rules, can't fucking stand Noncompete. He also talks over/for her on the few streams I've seen (couple years ago). That and I hate puppets.

        I like puppets fine but EJ really rubs me the wrong way too, especially onscreen with Luna. He has good stuff once in a while though. Luna is so much better. Honestly she should take over his channel.

          It kinda plays into the kinda smug and condescending tone I get from him. His answer to everything being co-ops while living in Vietnam is off-putting as well.
