It's kinda understandable really if people aren't ultra quick to just forgive Shoe or whatever, really - or anyone else who seems to have got more openly left wing in the past year or two. Regardless of how genuine she is it's not like that's going to just happen overnight considering some of the poo poo she threw about, even if she does dismiss a lot of it as being wrong or cringy or whatever. Note that this is different from saying it should never happen but it might take a bit more than lefty takes on Twitter. Some other thoughts on feminism that don't just tar it all with the lib pop culture Buzzfeed brush also.

the question really isn't whether anyone comes out of the womb left-wing, it's whether anyone comes out of the womb a youtuber. redemption for being an e-nazi is for your conscience and your friends, not for your online brand.

Yeah like sure she should probably take her old videos down but I really don't see why that's a smoking gun on her not being sincere. Either way, her new content very much pro-left and has absolutely helped deradicalize at least some of her old audience, so I guess you could argue that how sincere she is doesn't really matter, since the results are the same.

# ? Apr 4, 2021 23:55 |

If you still have videos promoting anti feminism and bigoted world views up and still available then yeah you are still actively promoting that gross poo poo by keeping them up. Taking them down is the bare loving minimum and the fact that she can't even do that speaks volumes

If you are continuing to promote harm by keeping old videos up then how can you actually be sincere? Apologies and healing can't start before you actually stop doing harm.

It’s not really deradicalizing people to point them in the direction of Bernie Sanders while still encouraging them to call Anita Sarkeesian the c-word or the r-word or whatever. If you’re still going to be a dumb selfish bully about everything, you’re no good to the left and you’re not going to be with it for very long before reverting to type.

Also i agree about taking down her old videos but lol at 'she should delete her youtube channel entirely!!!' She says dumb poo poo sometimes but do you really think an attractive white woman left the altright sphere to make *more* money? Like whether or not shes left enough for you the idea that shes a secret nazi grifter is ludicrous. The openly nazi grifters make more money. Jontrons subs went up when he went full race science and broke away from all his old friends. Ian Miles Cheong went from random eurogamer listicle writer to being the gamer alt-right guy and got a ton more money for it. Like im not saying you have to love her or anything like i said i think she says stupid poo poo sometimes too but cmon. The grand master plan of making less money and having everyone call you a nazi if you say idpol alone is a narrowminded way of viewing the world? If she wanted an easy ride, more money, and more friends shed still be making vids about gamergate being cool

I agree that Shoe doesn't need to delete her account and become a grocery store worker forever but those old vids should go down and/or have monetization turned off.

Yeah monetization off at least, I can buy the argument she doesn't want to pretend she never did those things but if monetization is on for them thats bad.

Endorph posted:Also i agree about taking down her old videos but lol at 'she should delete her youtube channel entirely!!!' As much as I’m sympathetic to this line of argument this has an easy “This just proves she sucks at being a grifter rather than disproving she is one” Right-winged online people aren’t the brightest bulb in the shed. But yeah people are a bit too dictomous on both sides of the discussion. There are other left winged people who are this poo poo to people so it wouldn’t really hurt to she show’s conversion as legit but completely incomplete to stop her from being the same of bigoted rear end in a top hat. I would go far to say having “delete all the bad videos” as something required I’m uncomfortable with full stop. Like I get it of how the YouTube algorithm works means you can’t get something like that WB disclaimer I guess that’s fair but I much prefer the transparency and the irony of an metaphorical inverted Che shirt if someone has done everything else to be contrite .

Endorph posted:Also i agree about taking down her old videos but lol at 'she should delete her youtube channel entirely!!!' Yeah, because it's not a secret. She's openly a former nazi-adjacent grifter and no-one is obliged to 'forgive' her youtube brand for that fact or praise her for having the good grace to no longer be actively promoting white supremacy.

Endorph posted:Also i agree about taking down her old videos but lol at 'she should delete her youtube channel entirely!!!' Imo if your values change radically, which can certainly happen slowly and in stages, it should feel like something by the end. I’m not saying that she needs to demonstrate contrition by flagellating herself in a hair shirt on stream, but I’m not going to believe that she’s any different if her behavior doesn’t change because that’s the inevitable result of such a big change in belief. If she were a hollow person who cared more about attention and brand-building than understanding what she is or why, I’d expect her to keep cutting videos and reminding people to smash that like button.

Endorph posted:no one's saying you have to get down on your knees and praise the lord about her christ-like redemption. just that theres a middleground between 'still a literal nazi' and 'the queen of leftism.' like she can be not a nazi anymore but still dumb about some stuff. I don't know this person. None of us know this person. What's actually happening here is that the Nazi TV Network has rebranded as Leftist Entertainment News and you're trying to tell me that there's some point about left purity in wanting the Nazi TV Network to go away completely, actually, rather than welcoming the fact that the people who used to make "Black folk: angry, eh?" are now making "How to feel the Bern on poll day!"

Funnily enough I just looked at Shoe's channel and a whole bunch of the vids that were there back from when I was getting into her stuff and others in 2017 aren't there anymore. Some of them are but a bunch are indeed gone. I also looked at her ex out of curiosity and he's completely out the game -- it seems like Armoured Skeptic privated most every political vid he ever made and just makes videos about aliens now. Whether to delete old vids or not for whatever reason has a few arguments to be made. You could say that if you delete them they'd probably still end up accessible somewhere else. Someone would reupload them. Still, even if you do want to show where you came from and keep them though you don't agree with them, it's still coming off to people as something you agree with and no matter where she lands on the compass, a lot of those videos were pretty much entirely loved by right-wing folks and pushed people more towards that direction than the left. Kind of like that's a feature built into the whole *REACTING TO CRINGY POLITICAL TAKES* genre.

I think comparing a youtube channel to a national tv network is a bit of an exaggeration. for starters, one is a corporate entity, the other is a person.

I don’t think anyone here is actually making a equivalence of scale but more of a equivalence of branding. Even if it doesn’t apply in this case it’s not impossible for a YouTube to be that souless. Perhaps you should address the possibility that right wing grifters are dumb and stubborn enough to make a poorly done pivot and still commit to it past any reasonable point of fail.

Ehhh, that's true in insular places like internet forums, but there's plenty of people itching for that Lefty "gently caress the power!" energy but not actually interested in doing any work on themselves. It's the audience that the Peter Coffins and Jimmy Dores of the world play to. So it's entirely possible that shoe tested the winds and decided that there might be better long-term prospects in rebranding as one of those rather than trying to compete with "Actual Congresswomen who say Q poo poo". It is however equally possible that the right started crossing lines she won't and so she decided to move on to the next thing she thinks she can pull off. And it's of course possible this is sincere and she's just not especially good at understanding the standards of accountability that lefties expect. So while I think it's fair to consider the possibility she's sincere, it's not that outlandish to consider this as her just pivoting as a grifter for whatever reason.

She has an audience of 1.5 million people on YouTube and 400,000 on twitter. Her brand is considerably closer to being a major tv network than it is to any kind of interpersonal relationship. She is not an awkward friend you need to forgive for some gently caress-ups, to well over a million people.

also unless im missing something someone said 'she compared black people to gorillas' and what actually happened was she replied to a tweet saying the harambe meme was only popular because people like making fun of african names with 'the dead meme police are here.' like i searched 'racism shoeonhead' and that was the tweet that kept coming up. so like maybe people are taking stuff out of context or just telephone gaming stuff when it comes to her. (see: 'she should delete her videos!' and then a lot of her old stuff actually being deleted) like you can think the harambe meme is racist in nature like that original tweet said or it isnt her place to mock that view or whatever but its pretty different from 'saying black people are gorillas.'
