It’s funny watching Pakman freak out about losing subscribers because lefties just never experience the constant ratchet the center/ right creators do, where the platforms constantly fuck with them in plausibly deniable ways.
These lefties have never been anything but algorithmically supported and cosseted, so he’s genuinely stunned that subscriber numbers went down (“Is that even possible, chat?!?!”).
Which I find a bit hopeful, actually. These subscribers are either so demoralized they can’t cope, or maybe aware that they aren’t perceiving full reality.
Either way, these smug pricks suffering is my shameful entertainment this week.
