TGWTG Nostalgia Chick / Lindsay Ellis / TheDudette - aka Hotdogs in face girl

...I mean she was literally chosen over a Black woman for the role of Nostalgia Chick, because of, I assume according to her videos, White Privilege and the Walker brothers racial preferences...
Let's hope she's never confronted with this Sophie's Choice.

She will probably still make her YouTube videos and write books, but as far as someone who is taken seriously in political communities she identifies with, she's done. There's a lot of fracturing going on as the political spectrum sorts itself out. TERFs are the most obvious fracture that everyone here knows about; but they have each other even if they don't quite fit in on either side of the political spectrum. There's the "Post-Left", Leftists that reject IdPol and the corporatisation of the mainstream Left, and they're something of a clique altogether.

Anyone older than 27 will probably be aged out of the Prog/IdPol space and cast aside and form their own fractured little sub-group. Membership will probably be anyone in the Anti-GamerGate crowd during that era (I'm not a gamer at all so I wasn't really paying attention when all of that went down). Their tone will probably be a more level-headed, rational IdPol Progressive; one that avoids the inflammatory rhetoric that's more appealing when you're younger. They'll ironically be "Conservative Progressives" and will probably be called that by detractors who mock them for not keeping up with whatever new mind bending nonsense variation of Trans-whatever. A conservatism born out of age and material comfort that makes idealogical street fighting less romantic than it used to be.
Ellis is in her late 30s I believe and what we see is a rift between older leftists, like her and contra and the generation they bred, people in their twenties that have morphed into a much different beast, an alt-left of sorts.
The next years will be interesting.
 
King Doug:

Linsday Ellis:
-never worked a day in her life
-terminally online and addicted to Twitter
-posts a video every couple of months
Nail on the head post there.
NC built himself an empire, it might be shitty and faded now but he was still king for a day. Even better if he managed to build a life outside of his videos

maybe he’s not the best at movie reviews, maybe he can’t write sketch comedy to save his life but I think my life was enriched by watching his videos.

Everything I’ve seen of Ellis may as well have been her cranking one out in front of a mirror
 
Wow, she really did delete her twitter account over this.

Weird anti white woman thing going on with the left
"I'm a white woman from Tennessee, my family is mostly uneducated white trash."

Wow, not a hint of reservation or hesitation. If I were her dad I would've disowned her for that.
all i heard from that is that lindsay ellis admits shes a white trash skank which ive known about like many others since her defining moment of taking several dozen wieners in the face to be featured on channel awesome
 
Earlier today, I was watching Carl Benjamin's podcast about Lindsay's video.

Say what you about Carl (and Lord knows I've said plenty), but I had way more fun watching her video in clips with his reactions than watching it in full. It was nice to see someone on the opposite side of her call her out on her shit.

I think Sargon finally found a niche that works for him. He's not a dumb guy, even if he's done some dumb things. He gives better commentary than someone like, say, Gunt.

While Sargon would never admit it, I suspect he that he had a realisation that he's fucked up a lot, and came close to self destructing.

I think that's why he's turned the "lotus eaters" into a more colaborative effort, and is happy to share screen time, with people that aren't just mindless toadies. Also because he actually pays staff he can attract higher calibre people than say the Gunt. He's even managed to quitely get his channel monetised again.

Ellis complained once that she has to pay for multiple employees. It's intersting that we never see them on screen, and that they don't get credits on the videos.
 
Sargon always struck me as being cut from the same sperg cloth as most of us here or on 4chan, and I think that's largely why he resonated so much with people during Gamergate. His problem has always been that he is as prone to spilling his spaghetti as any of the rest of us, and by happenstance he happened to find himself in something of a spotlight.

His run in politics might have been a spectacle, but I have to give him points for taking a crack at it. He certainly made a better show of it than Brianna Wu at least, and unlike Wu, he at least knew when to pack it in.

This.
It's the classic case of giving someone an end and then taking a mile.
It started as people just wanting a bit more representation but has more than to people playing race politics for brownie points on the internet.
It's to the point to where Hollywood can't even make a black character without the left you crying that it's not an amalgamation of the stereotypes they attached to blacks ala Disney's new movie Soul.
The reason for this is because it's not about representation or diversity but something that fits their narrative which is actually pretty racist beyond belief.
 
Finally got around to watching it. I like the part where she wonders out loud why it is that both the left and right seem to hate her. Like the idea that she might be an unlikable person doesn't even occur to her.
That would require some amount of introspection and reflection. She doesn't seem like she can do that because she's constantly stuck in this world where the denizens delight on picking others apart on a daily basis. Too much time is spent ruining others instead of looking inward.

This is only with them shouting from the outside to the cowering executives within Hollywood's walls. Imagine what they would actually make if they had total control of a film project.

Your issue is expecting these political Youtubers to be self-aware.
 
I get that mindset. I keep hoping that one of those people will wake up one day and realize that they were part of the problem, but I doubt it will happen.
They know perfectly well that they are part of the problem, but don't care as long as they can make money and a reputation off of it. They are all egotistical greedy selfish heartless parasites. Lindsay knows what she is, which is why she drinks so much. As long as she desires to maintain her shitty 'career', she will be too drunk to have a non-Fetal Alcohol Syndrome child, and she doesn't want to raise a retard. Few people do. Fish or cut bait, Lindsay. Tick tock.

It's not "the Left".
It is hipsters, some pretty broken headcases and a lot of teenagers/Young adults who took the excesses of the previous generation to the next logical step:
In the 10's we had "no other girls". In the 20's we have the "enbis".
In the 10's we had some frigid women, in the 20's we have aces.
In the 10's we had losers who could not get laid. Now we have incels.

Same as the alt-right, we also have the alt-left and they both hardly fit into the traditional authoritarian/liberal and left/right axis to the point we should add other dimensions to fit them in.

Nonsense! She employs Jim Beam, Johnny Walker, and Jose Cuervo full time!
Well, this is a start for a diverse workforce, but it would surely help to add some womxn there, like Serkova,
And the lack of asians in there proves her bigotry...
