BreadTube - The Unofficial ContraPoints Dickriders Club and the culture / drama surrounding the community.

[Buttigieg2020]

I think the biggest thing was r/FULLCOMMUNISM getting quarantined, though some of the smaller, more explicitly violent ones like r/leftwithsharpedge got banned. If you count them, there was also the various "kill all white people" subs, r/picsofdeadcops and r/shoplifting, which aren't leftist per se, but had a fair amount of crossover.

That makes sense, Reddit purged most of the gore subs. I know r/shoplifting got on the news once, so that's not surprising they would purge that to appease corporate advertisers. Full communism seemed harmless upon inspection, other than their call to murder liberals.

I agree we should have a thread to discuss Breadtube in general instead of just the Subrreddit. The thing about Breadtubers is that they are really fucking boring people, and most of them are just pseudointelectuals instead of lolcows that get in drama everytime. However, I think we can find interesting things about these people if we dig enough. I have the vibe that most of them are the kind of really socially awkward, like the e-celebs that always got in shit. We can use it to discuss Breadtube greatest hits, because some of their political content is really fucking cringy. Who knows? Drama can come from anywhere.

Oh and about Jreg, he is an actual libertarian leftist. He commented on Comrade Cora Prager U's videos, a trans leftie Youtube Pooper that threats her channel board as her personal Twitter. However, he has self-awareness and likes to do diverse poltical humor instead of just "le chuds". He is a good boi. Tbh, the only decent content from Breadtube is from him, Three Arrows and Sarah Z. The rest are really fucking high on the own fucking farts

Cora is a muslim convert iirc.

It's funny how a lot of these tankies will suck up to liberal media to shit on "le fash" but once the liberals are turned away they call for their heads.

For those who want to do some digging into the people and personalities of BreadTube, the RationalWiki page on BreadTube includes a link to an r/BreadTube post (archive) with a long list of BreadTube content creators big and small. This list features a wide gambit of BreadTubers, channels with dozens of subscribers, and hundreds of thousands, professors of economics and ancap furries, libertarian pseudointellectuals and communist edgelords, it's all here. The second half of the list contains a large selection of BreadTube podcasts, from Marxist Christians to polygamous black identitarian lesbians.

I don't know how many of the people on this list would self identify with the BreadTube community because this list was created by a third-party user on r/BreadTube but this list seems to encompass a large portion of BreadTube at large.

Is this the place to talk about that PhilosophyTube fellow? I think he might be the worst out of all of them.

BreadTube is what happens when ten years of smugly replying to offers of dialogue with "it's not my job to educate you" results in a permanent contingent of millennial men wanting to "own the libs" by quoting FBI crime statistics and putting their women back into cages (much to the delight of millennial women, it seems).

It's a poor copycat attempt that's almost certainly doomed to failure because it's too little too late. Millennials are too old to become more left-wing than they already are and zoomers are too small of a generational cohort to challenge the political power millennials will have (they'll be the dominant voting bloc for at least the next 50 years). There's quite literally no one left to convert. BreadTube's only hope is to keep enough millennials from defecting to other side that left-wing thought doesn't become completely marginalized for the next half century.

In that, I wish them the best of luck. After all, if 2010s progressivism dies now, I won't have any troons to laugh at in ten years.

Almost all sufficiently radical leftists hate cops, but where anarchists hate them for being the state's monopoly on violence, and progressive leftists hate them for being racist and classist, more authoritarian communists just hate them as servants of capitalist state and would have zero objections to them committing same atrocities in the name of proletariat dictatorship.

Very optimistic assessment, the far left had a way better public perception than far right, it's way more normalized because there's no more Soviet Union to point fingers at demonstrating the wickedness of leftism, many millenials still struggle with employment and other economic problems and thus may over time are likely to drift towards left as they fail to adapt, same with zoomers.

And you are making a mistake of assuming the extreme ideology needs absolute majority support to dominate. Bolsheviks and Nazis claimed power despite not being represented by absolute majority, few other extreme groups ever had it. They simply had enough people to attempt to seize politics by force, and majority of people went along with their rule.

I actually planned to make a thread on Chapo as soon as I came back here, since no one has made one yet. It's a real lolcow ranch that also crosses over into much of the rest of Reddit, and they'll probably hilariously rage when they find the thread.

If you do, just go to /r/drama and search "Chapocels" to find noteworthy material. Here is an intresting case of when the sub tried to hack into one of the host's instagram because she denounced them so thoroughly (archive) There was also a hilarious back and forth between /r/drama and /r/chapotraphouse about a month ago.

The American right has already abandoned all pretenses of fiscal conservatism and its opposition to the welfare state is rapidly fading as well. They're becoming something more akin to One-Nation Conservatives, with the accompanying paternalistic social programs. In light of this, I don't think economically-disadvantaged millennials or zoomers are going to have much incentive to lean leftward, especially as they continue to get older.

I could be completely wrong though.

I was planning to use /r/drama as my main source; I used to browse there a lot back in my Reddit days before I got banned for linking to dox. They also had spats with shitliberalssay and other leftist subreddits.

While I agree that totalitarians don't need a majority to violently seize power (coups are an obvious example of this), chapos aren't anywhere near the level where even that is viable; a coup or violent revolution needs a high level of support among people who are well organised and know how to effectively use violence to achieve political goals. Very few chapos fall into this category due to being weak and autistic, while, say, the Brazilian army in 1964 obviously did. Even 10% of the population turning communist could be dangerous, but can you really imagine an audience of over 30 million watching Breadtube?

The unemployment rate is also the lowest it's been since the 1960s, so if the reds couldn't muster the large number of unemployed workers in 2008 they certainly can't now.

All of the larger BreadTube individuals are cops. Just not for the state. They are neolibs posing as socialists who tattle to the admins or HR departments.

Does that mean he’s going to have a laughably bad political campaign?

I wish but mostly in that both of them just read random articles and research papers without actually understanding how to read them. They also use an accent to sound smarter then they really are

In other news, Vaush got cancelled. Maybe for good this time. Got into an argument with Breadtuber Thought Slime about trans people and shit. Apparently, Vaush is in favor of gender abolitionism and Slime got salty because muh identity.

Spoiler: HILARITY ENSUES

Of course, Breadtube put their claws over him

https://www.reddit.com/r/BreadTube/comments/chjw9m/vaush_acting_like_an_obnoxious_twat/

Unfortunely, Vaush deleted the video really quickly before I could archive itFor what I could read about these posts, Vaush apparently has a very complicated relationship with his girlfriend. They always have some banter on the chats where they insult each other in a playful way, but it seems from the video that could be not ironic and Vaush is too "dirtbag" for her.

Oof

Wait, is Thought Slime is a transexual, or is he white knighting for a tranny?

 

[scathefire]

Wait, is Thought Slime is a transexual, or is he white knighting for a tranny?

He identifies as non-binary, apparently. I've seen a few of his Thought Slime videos but they must've been pretty unremarkable, as I barely remember what they were about.
Just now I looking at the r/Breadtube homepage and saw one, I clicked to a random part on the timeline and was immediately met with this.

How do you think that makes our autistic comrades feel?

 

[A Logging Company]

He identifies as non-binary, apparently.

Isn't the whole concept of being non-binary an abolition of gender to begin with, or would at least be unaffected by it? Last thing I saw from Vaush was him debating Blair White defending the whole concept of "Non-Binary."
