Mine are Hakim, overzealots, spooky scary socialist, wow_mao, and probably others that I don't remember right now

I don't think this counts as a question? But it's more of a discussion, hope this counts as one

On this line: Hakim, Hasan Piker, Luna Oi, Second Thought, Yugopnik, Lady Izdihar, Revolutionary Thot, Boyboy + Ididathing... All of those socialist YouTubers seem to orbit the same ideas and views on socialism, with all of them being appreciative of past and present Actually Existing Socialism.

Is there a similar "bubble" for anarchism? Because either I don't get it recommended because I'm a socialist and I'm not exposed to it, or anarchists haven't been able to organize such a sphere

The anarchism bubble is definitely smaller, but check out Andrewism (his stuff literally doesn’t miss), Anark, AnRel, Alki, Prince Shakur, idk. I’m still a bit new to it.

I've encountered Anark before, never heard of the others. Are they as cohesive as the socialist sphere is?

[–] JollyRebellion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Depends what you mean by cohesive, like as a group their content varies a lot in style, but I feel like anarchism tends to be pretty open minded between different trains of thought (as long as it’s not “an-cap” or I’ve noticed primitivism is controversial as well). Andrewism is a no-adjective anarchist, but he focuses a lot on solarpunk.

I meant cohesive as a community of creators, I guess I don't care so much ideologically

Ah I see. Yeah I’d say so, maybe not quite as much as socialists, just cus anarchists tend to be so decentralized by nature. But they’ll do videos together occasionally, responses, etc.

Luna Oi's husband runs an anarchist-theory youtube channel, can't remember the name
