It is no less than I deserve. I am in the posting gulag now.
The counterargument here is party discipline -- we don't want people going around claiming to be part of "the left" (however broadly that's defined) if they're saying all sorts of awful shit. And if we can't get them to stop, directing a stream of constant ridicule towards them to make it clear that they aren't one of us is the next best thing.
Of course, the broad mass of leftist (or left-ish) people isn't a formal party. And by now there are enough mainstream or near-mainstream people/media outlets we can point to if someone tries to bring up some YouTube clown. Still, something to consider.
Vaush is really getting owned by all of these posts on a forum that neither he nor his fanbase visits. I know this is a shitposting site and the bar is low but there's seriously nothing productive about posting about him so much, but it's funny to some people and not necessarily harmful and I'm not the fun police, idk

This is why we must:
- Go forth and shitpost on other social media, and
- Bring more leftists and proto-leftists here
I'm down with that, until then how bout we pump the brakes on clown posting
V*ushposting has definitely gotten excessive. I just wanted to highlight a minor point about the importance of kicking out people who do the shit he does.
The Kim Kardashian of terminally online leftists, unless you're into celeb worship and gossiping over dumb shit he probably wouldn't interest you at all
There needs to be a V-word bot we can ridicule people with.
This is like the kid in class who screams shut up at the top of his lungs when the teacher is trying to make everyone be quiet
Is :haram: really that popular for how often he gets posted here? I've never seen a full video, and only seen him around here and a couple times on /r/breadrube
I could see how it gets a bit old. Vaush sucked yesterday and he still sucks today, so what makes it newsworthy? I can also see how a hyper-focus on the dork leads us to "rent-free" territory.
On the other hand, someone's gotta be fodder for the two minutes hate.

That's fair I just feel like there's better outlets than some liberal opportunist larping as a leftist.
Yeah, there are plenty of other people who need to be pig poop balled.
IDK for a while Youtube was really insistent on pushing his videos on me. I think they get a ton of views but I'm scared if I search them I'll start getting them recommended every 10 seconds again.
Just did a quick check and none of his videos seem to break 200k views.
Does that count as not a lot in youtube land? Looks like cushvlogs rarely break 20k, philosophy tube does like 500k-1M, contra a couple million.
I have no idea what is a lot of youtube views. Him getting more than doubled by philosophy tube makes me feel like he's not that important. Haha
Yeah that's fair - it just seemed more relevant to compare them to a more live-recorded, free-form type format like cushvlogs since his videos are really just clips of livestreams, rather than totally produced, scripted content with costumes and sets and shit like philosophy tube
True. I just don't know a lot of those, since that's not what I'm watching.
He's incredibly popular because he is very good at playing the controversy game, and jackasses who believe they're acting in defense of a "movement" but really just feel personally affronted take the bait every single time so less engaged people hear that everyone's yelling about this one guy so hm if he's that important like if this is what all the cool internet leftists spend their time caring about I guess I should see what he says wow he debates other internet celebrities and he talks real loud because that's the only affect that can send a signal through the noise of the online spectacle I guess I should yell about him too
Does that fake Biden YT comment count?
I thought that was funny
Question: when people ask who v#### is in a thread, am I still allowed to tell them he's a PUA?
As a bit, definitely.
If you're serious, then you are thinking of RooshV
"Hey did you see what Vau-"
:marx-angry: "We do not speak of that man here comrade"
counterpoint: choosing not to criticize libs who are trying to encroach on our movement is in and of itself a form of liberalism
That's true, but criticizing him quickly becomes circle jerking because we all get why he sucks, and don't learn anything from the newest round of "wow vaush sucks" unless it's particularly funny
In order to actually combat that liberalism it has to be confronted, not grumbled about on a leftist forum
We're all sick and tired of hearing about him. He gets criticized constantly, and we've all heard about all the bad shit he's done. Bringing it up constantly is just annoying, and downvoting every Vaush post is praxis.
