1. Who on Earth is gonna change their mind about voting for Biden on the day of the election because they saw a Shaun tweet?????

  2. The U.S. isn't some small insignificant country -- they affect the whole world (indirectly and directly), everyone has a right to speak on U.S. politics, especially if they're educated on the topic.

Also, for the unfamiliar, both of these people are considered "breadtube" YouTubers.

    So we should self-censor on the off chance some libs may get "cynical" about voting??? Who the fuck is this nitwit and how does she have any traction on the "left"

      She's a a fairly entertaining youtuber with p good vaguely leftist video essays on movies. She's breadtube adjacent, as in she collabs with a lot of people considered to be breadtube, but her most successful videos are just video essays roasting bad movies. I don't know why people expect super good political content from her, she's just Redlettermedia if Redlettermedia had a bunch of lib friends.

        I've noticed most of the radicalism of these "Vague Leftists" doesn't extend outside of pop culture analysis, I wonder how lib they'd get without that safe cultural crutch

        Stop that shit. Stop using the word when it's clearly not warranted.

      If libs are so cynical about voting, maybe they should have come up with a more compelling vision than "beat the Cheeto"

      I think deep down Dems know that Biden is the only person shitty enough to lose to Trump, so they are policing anything that could come off as negative. Seriously any critique gets met with a shush because in their mind it's Biden's game to lose any nobody needs to help him lose.
