The human animal is a beautiful and terrible creature, capable of limitless compassion and unfathomable cruelty.
Aimee's got a podcast and is a hero of the r/stupidpol crowd, who want to think of themselves as good leftists despite hating anybody who experiences any marginalization other than economic. I tend to think that she and her fans would be genuinely dangerous if not pushed back against- they're super-bad for anything resembling left unity and the idea of people whose interests align with left politics who aren't leftists encountering them and thinking that's what leftism is (instead of just a handful of extremely loud, extremely aggressive idiot assholes) is kind of a nightmare.

I don’t know much about Chapo, I’ve only come across them when googling Krassensteins, random twitter mentions, and seeing that random Reddit brigades celebrating police violence when it’s done by nominally leftist governments (Hong Kong) seem to post frequently on Chapo subreddits though it could be some tankie dogwhistle/wink I’m missing.

I dont think it is wise to conflate the podcast hosts and their audience, especially since there are a lot of flavors of obnoxious twitter leftists.

they have said they will never speak about the hong kong protests, probably for the better. none of them support authoritarianism tho, probably out of pure self-interest

what a shame, here i was hoping they could drive the ~comrade xi~ gimmick into the ground harder than a protester under the boot of some triad thug

I don't know much about Chrissy Teigen, but from the tweets I've seen, she seems fairly sensible. She probably was relieved not to be addressed by name by an old sexist with watery soup for brains. I know I would be.

I think there is also a general concern that her whole socialism for elitist pricks schtick is generally enticing to that set of people who predisposed to the left but who don't want to stop saying slurs.

She's really bad at selling it, as most grifters are, but there's a very real fear that someone competent will come along later and use the same ideas to do real damage.

He makes songs in different styles, thats like his thing, and he got popular making intentionally bad songs. If you dont like wierd meme songs or autotune or whatever, he probably has at least one song with a flow or beat you wouldn't hate though this new knowledge of his pedophile foot fetish probably changes things lol :yikes:
