someone made a decent effort post attempting to link and crowdsource more BIPOC “breadtubers” and they also touched on how white breadtube predominantly was.
This is one of the things I like about ThoughtSlime. They at least try to signal-boost other creators, many of which have been POC in some way. Regardless of any personal disagreements people might have, that part's at least pretty chill.
I remember before them specifyi8ng they didn't want they/them (was it anything but they/them?) but then they got mad about people blowing up at others over it so now they just use they/them out of spite.
Yup, and there is some arguments to be made about linking more lib content creators but I don't really want to get too much into that. But I will say, I'm not entirely convinced breadtube isn't just gonna end up (or partially already has) as another form of mindless consumption packaged up as some type of activism. I don't watch enough of it anymore but I could not get over how little so many of them challenge how politics is actually done in this country. I'm sure there is some out there that are challenging this and encouraging people think beyond just electoralism, but just browsing the top posts on that sub it doesn't seem to be as popular of an idea over lib-adjacent ideology shit.

Everybody likes Matt. By the way, they are nonbinary and use they/them pronouns.

Oh I didn't know that. I just heard they used they/them.
Cheers, I totally didn't know. Edited to reflect that!
