abby is dope and her content has always been better and is much more timeless than most or all of contrapoints'. Ive gone back to philosophytube/abby but i havent really felt the need to rewatch or reconsider kkkontra.

Just want to point out that Abby participated in the "before talking about Gaza, it's super important to talk at length about the rise of antisemitic violence"-cliché in a (semi) recent video. I don't generally watch her content, so maybe it's an exception to otherwise good takes, but that one left a sour taste in my mouth.

Fuck every Breadtuber, I hate what they've done to the internet, they keep breeding liberals

[–] Leegh@hexbear.net 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Breadtube is the epitome of the idea that the revolution itself will be commodified. The entire privately-owned social media sphere is Capitalist Realism for the post-Cold War digital space. And many Western leftists unfortunately still don’t realize this.

They've done nothing of note, except shutting up a couple of fashy youtubers (while IRL fascism quintupled in size)

Never watched Shaun, but he's a good lad

If she said something more radical, her acting career would be dead. Unlike kontra she knew where the wind blew though.

[–] Gosplan14_the_Third@hexbear.net 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yeah right, as if people are ever more radical than they claim to be when talking politics, unless they're being intentionally dishonest.

[–] demeritum@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 2 days ago

Oh no, I do think she doesnt particularly cares about Palestinians being alive, she just knew her audience.

Find greener pastures, why punish yourself with this meandering yapping? Abby isn't much better than Contra, just a bit, deminishing returns situation

Alexander Avila is pretty great too

Well he's got like two absolute clown takes but is otherwise good and might've learned something since then

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 10 points 2 days ago

I saw like two videos from Avila and he just seemed like such a wannabe French cafe type intellectual with no inclination to do substantive leftist analysis. That was a few years ago, but usually these internet "intellectuals" become worse as they become more successful on Youtube rather than better (or at best stay the same), so I hope I can be forgiven for not checking recent work.

Dunno about you but I wouldn't hype a person who both sides the gaza genocide and amplified the fake "rising antisemitism" crisis. Turns out you can make a lot of things antisemetic if you define jewishness as genocidal.
