i don’t know how i got linked to this channel but i kept clicking on videos because i like him and his style and his politics.

and i just gotta say

i saw some highly dunkable libs saying things like “don’t link me to people who make an argument. you need to use your own words or i’m going to block you.” and now i want, desparately, to link them to this video in particular.

the end bit is the best where he says (im paraphrasing) “if someone says that we can’t show solidarity with palestine because then our team won’t win, then you can say ‘fuck your team’ and just be in solidarity with oppressed people because the people saying that are dum-dum doo-doo heads” and i really felt that.

    i haven’t seen anything like that. i’m not saying they haven’t acted like that in the past, but in the last couple days, i haven’t seen anything like that.

    i do think i found this channel a year or 2 ago. they did a scathing piece on bitcoin that had some good points but also i like bitcoin and i think maybe they don’t know everything they think they do.

      I haven’t watched that ass in years, i stopped watching because they’d be so up their own ass at all times, but there have been a few things that have leaked out to the better leftist Internet. They accused xan if running a sex cult and refuses to even acknowledge they’re wrong to this day, for the funniest thing i know about them off hand. More recently they’ve decided to go full on man hater because Shoe said something objectively correct (shoe also sucks, but if she says something right then she’s said something right).

        i know shoe exists, but i don’t really know much more beyond that and i don’t know who xan is at all. does all this lore really shade the video i linked tho? i think it’s good analysis.

          I dont particularly like either of those people (shoe is at best a personable centrist and xan is just weird imo) but they serve as good examples of Mildred being a pos. Shoe made a very good point about the left ignoring/denying men’s issues and that being bad for both the left and men (it’s essentially why tate exists). The accusations against xan are entirely baseless (random, even) and underscore how ts will gladly throw people under the bus for drama.

          That said i won’t say Mildred has never and will never say anything correct, but I’m not about to put the time and attention into hearing them out.
