Snowflake shoe0nhead / June Lapine / June La Porta & Armoured Skeptic / Gregory "Greg" Fluhrer - A poor man's Boxxy: rejected by Vaush, disowned by /pol/ for burning coal, sleeps in a dog's bed surrounded by trash, and her ex-boyfriend.

I'd swear I saw a few times where Shoe vaguely criticized something going on with the Skeptics or IBS or whatever, and then would delete it shortly after. Which I'd attribute to her knowing enough that this it was the kind of drama that would result in a few thousand fans of those drama-channels/e-celebs getting on her case. Makes it all the stranger that she decided to go all in on Vaush since the guy has been mocked quite a bit and the fanbase for his and his detractors is similarly wild (or at least getting there).
That puzzles me too. My only guess is the non-interaction with the wider Skeptic community was probably something Greg enforced (I could be completely wrong though). It could also be that she's non-functional as a person/adult without some kind of praise to validate herself or someone to be dependent on. Switching to the left would mean she'd be praised by Breadtube and leftist communities at a time where she's very lonely and depressed from her break up but I dunno for sure. Shoe is an emotionally and mentally unstable person that can feel herself getting older but can't break out of her old habits. Time will tell.

I think this somewhat supports the theory that Vaush cucked Greg (not physically, just taking up shoe's attention like crazy). If I were Greg, I don't think I would like shoe talking to some sped sex pervert horsecock lover(Vaush) every day. I could also see Greg over the years telling June who he thinks is "who should be avoided," and June going along with it somewhat. (But now his influence is gone, so it's all June being a political sperg without restraint)

Without armored skeptic in the picture, shoe0nhead is @-ing Vaush daily... instead of Greg, like she used to. It makes sense to me that Vaush is a replacement in some way or form.

I think she's going to collect several worse and shittier male neckbeard friends as time goes on.

I mean...yeah we all know its the break up that threw her over the edge. She didn't do dick with Vaush besides a few likes if I remember correctly until the break up actually happened.
 
I think this supports the theory that Vaush cucked Greg. Guys are territorial and, if I were Greg, I don't think I would like shoe talking a sped like Vaush every day. I could also see Greg telling shoe who he thinks is "too retarded to speak too/who should be avoided," and shoe going along with it somewhat.

Without Greg's influence, she's @-ing Vaush daily instead of Greg, so it makes sense.

I would imagine she's going to collect worse and shittier male neckbeard friends as time goes on.
Feel Greg at least was spiritually cucked as he didn't want to get involved in any of the political commentary others were getting into, hence the comment about not wanting to be a Sargon copy or whatever. Then you have Shoe getting into political talk anyway and have it dominate her life with videos and livestreams, which had to feel boring as hell, especially with her following Vaush like he's a bellwether.
 
I want to ask you something. Kind of off topic, but still: what do you believe is the next big thing after breadtube? I bet on tankies, but I'd like to know your take.

Even if @Kraut is probably right, I could see some sort of centrists coalition, between center-left people (like destiny) and center-right people (like kraut, but not him especially because he knows too well how that kind of shit ends) dunking on the left and the right, being the next big thing.
 
I've asked communists why they don't start their own corporation (i.e. land, machines, material, labor, business plan, executive plan, logistics, etc.) and they answer is always ALWAYS "we can't do that because it would be risky, the business could fail!" ... To which I say "You're off to a great start understanding why capitalism is risk and reward! Capitalism doesn't reward failure" and usually they don't reply or just "reeee muh life should be guaranteed successful reee reee." Also: I made a post about mondragon co-op corporation in Vaush's thread, sums it up <3 @Jack Awful @yoshitsune


Shoe...... shoe, shoe, shoe.

"MAN NEVER MISSES" ...how wrong you are

Certain industries (aka energy) are nearly impossible to enter unless you have capital. Capitalism doesn't always reward the most able and doesn't always breed innovation. Americans get mad when you point out that it was the soviets that sent man into space first and when we sent man onto the moon, one of our proudest achievements, it was govt funded. I always see Americans acting like capitalism is amazing without pointing out the flaws, and when you do call them out you're suddenly a commie. Nothing should be immune to criticism.
 
@Kraut You're definitely correct that interpersonal drama, dramatic displays of gossip and "who's friends with who" comes with the territory. I appreciate your insight.
I think that, while a lot of people keep reinventing themselves, I see there are also people who lose all their fans after a series of fuckups. There's also people who get deplatformed and have to rebuild as opposed to enjoying the easy ride of uninterrupted success. (leafy compared to keemstar--who's making more money?) We don't always hear from them (thus don't think of them) for obvious reasons of losing their reach.

I've also seen examples YouTubers over the last 10 years whose bubbles burst and they REALLY fucked their lives up (debt, reputation permanently damaged, being a tard not capable of recovering) because they were banking on streamer income while it lasted. Some people get lucky and never had real skill.

These things may not ultimately kill shoe0nhead, she seems to have some skill at "being a brand" and it doesn't automatically kill a content creator to have their rep damaged. Drama can even help if you do it right, people will support your cause (like itsagundam and pokimane). But it's a gamble, almost a Russian roulette. Playing with your reputation can kill you as an e-celeb if you fuck up in a cataclysmic way. Sometimes this means being capped at a permanent glass ceiling, never really growing past the point when you fucked up (ProJared).

Shoe0nhead has a fairly strong brand, and there are millions of people in the world for her to potentially draw on. I could see her fucking it up, though. Again, she might not "kill" her own brand by accident, but she could damage it greatly. She's obviously already sacrificed a lot of fans in favor of the leftoid audience, but as you say, if she has to jump ship on that... what next? There are so many other volatile factors in her life, her personal issues, mental illness. I can see her taking the wrong path and chimping out, instead of growing into a stable person who also does political commentary on the side.

The biggest risk I see for her is the fact that she lacks a real social life outside of the Internet. She doesn't have IRL friends by admission (steamer friends and troon goon) and her fiance dumped her, so whoever she gets with next will be a big deal. All the factors are there for them to spontaneously combust into a chimpout one day.

She's really fucked whenever she hits the point that she can't makeup/lighting/filter away the aging.

Picture all the shit she said to dump on Kristi Winters for being a middle-aged neoliberal feminist/whatever else shoe called her. Then remove Kristi's doctorate. That is June's future if she sticks to making videos about political hottakes. Except cringier.

Who wants to listen to a middle-aged woman who obviously has no idea what she's talking about and who can't back it up with her education and who embodies the Steve Buscemi narc meme more and more literally as time passes?

No. Just No and wrong. First of all: The government in the US creates artificial monopolies with energy and utilities like water. As in: "only the government is allowed to do it." Do you not know that? Capital aside, it's impossible to get into the utility industries in many places because of the government, end of. Some places do not have this forced monopoly and you can actually choose from more than one, say, power company because of that. Even then, it's got issues because of the government rules.
Even the phone and cable companies are only somewhat un-monopolized, but you still have a lot of regulation from the government that is barrier to entry.

The Internet itself only was possible because of decades of people pushing for deregulation of phones and proto-internet technology, that phone regulation was essentially making the industry for Internet illegal. It literally used to be illegal to put anything that wasn't a phone into a phone line jack. That regulation had to be removed for dial-up Internet to be legal. Think about that.
I'm not anti-regulation, but you have to understand there is a ridiculous amount of red tape and many bad regulations that were lobbied in for very stupid reasons. You're blaming the capitalism for problems created by the government. Also: Communism is the government controlling industries, all industries, so suggesting any of this is incredibly ignorant. End of.

Second of all: There are tons of examples of the Soviets killing animals and people in their space race. Using them as an example of some kind of achievement is bullshit if they had to rush and murder people, that's insane. The USA took longer because they actually tried to make the space crafts safe and NOT blow people up. Only a child would think being faster is an achievement over not killing people/animals.

That won't happen as it'd require a group of people that can see the flaws with their own side's ideology. But if we consider Breadtube to be reaction to skeptics making fun of low hanging fruit like identity politics and anti-nationalism, since many of them appear (from my extremely limited knowledge) to be very pro-identity politics and anti-nationalism, then we'd probably be able to say they're splintering apart a bit when they start straying from those key talking points.

The pendulum will swing back eventually, but it probably won't be straight up anti-identity politics again since that's sorta played out. Given how everyone is focusing on economics these days, writing essays about socialism vs capitalism, it may end up as an appealing wedge issue for some new gang to rally around. Breadtube essentially endorses tossing more money at mega corporations to provide for people's needs (healthcare industry etc) so maybe it'll be some group criticizing their hyper capitalism disguised as socialism?
 
Surprised this hasn't been posted yet.

I'll admit, this picture physically hurt.
 
Imagine being so demoralized and stripped of self-worth you look at a pudgy, obese, balding neet and speak of him like a 6'0 210lb muscle laden Chad.
There is no saving this e-whore; only pointing and laughing.

Imagine getting blown out by a 3rd rate Sargon capo. The cognitive dissonance of saying “Yes I support communist ideals. I associate with unabashed communists. I’m not a communist though” is astounding.
I mean, 10 years ago she acted like & hung out with run-of-the mill guidos, yet proclaimed she wasn't a normie Long Island Wop.
June is so basic and she hates it. She's the type to tell her partner that she wasn't cheating on him; she just tripped and landed firmly on his dick.
 
I feel like this was the oldest she ever looked, and this was 5 years ago:

IMO 2011 era June was the oldest she ever looked.

I swear this bitch ages in reverse. That's probably intentional.
 
Notice how June is using pink, red, and blue lights in her videos now? That's an old movie industry trick, and in fact an old red light district (hooker) trick. The colored lights are really good for hiding blemishes, wrinkles, and discoloration in the skin. She's not being cute UwU, she's being sneaky.

She's not aging in reverse, she's just gotten better with filter technology and make-up. I promise you that in real life, she would absolutely look her age.

Look at these candids from just a couple years ago. Fucking she looks haggard. I promise she didn't age better now at almost 30.

Jesus. Look at that smile when she's wearing the brown wig. She looks like she's about to fall over. Is she on drugs?

I should be clear, that's what I mean by it being intentional. Shoe has very carefully refined her appearance. Shoe's entire grift is being the UwU smol bean Boxxy lookalike who gives lukewarm political takes to an army of simps. She's aware she is aging, and must consistently upgrade her makeup, camera, and lighting to keep up appearances. She has slowly but surely gotten a better setup to account for aging, but as a result she has started to look consistently younger as her movie magic has gotten better.

lol. She's going to reach a point where she will never be able to go in public, as in can't even go to conferences or go to events. Because she will look nothing like whatever video filters she's using to make herself look younger. The difference will be too much, and the wall will hit like a ton of bricks.

Shoe's become more and more of a shut in as of late, so if she gets to the point where she can't even go to conventions (once the lockdown ends of course) that's really going to have a disastrous long-term knock on effect on her social and mental well being.
 
Made me curious about what Greg had said on twitter about Sargon and noticed this. Besides the obvious further dumping of Sargon since he couldn't help him gain attention, it's also evidence of how tired Greg was of politics versus Shoe wanting to go even more into it. Which if it's true that Sargon played wingman and got the two of them together makes it all the funnier.

Since it would mean Sargon both helped promote the two of them, brought them together, and then drove them apart by popularizing talking politics in in the Skeptic community since it eventually resulted in Shoe wanting to talk politics constantly while Greg wanted to talk about fun shit.
