One of the things I find ironically amazing is how people of differing political beliefs being friendly; if not civil, towards one another is considered akin to interacting with the unclean.Champagne socialists like Vaush have no incentive to engage in real activism. All of his value is tied into complaining about stupid shit and calling niggas nazis. Without outrage to peddle Vaush has literally no worth as a youtuber. He's an ugly slob with stock talking points whose only real advantage is that he's edgier than his peers. He could talk about the glory of socialism, but he knows that none of them are actual commies or socialists. It's one of the reasons why pro or anti-social justice political youtube shit is a dead end. It only really works if it's popular in the political niche you occupy. Or like now where the culture is so hyper poloticized that you can make a tweet going "durr es jay w's are gay," and get a shit ton of likes because the right and left are angry at them.
Imo, it's why anti-sjw shit thrives in the entertainment areas of YT. Again, imo sjw shit is more of a cultural concern that ties into issues like freedom of expression, etc. It's why you have so many anti-woke leftists like myself. Because they see their entertainment and ability to just peacefully exist threatened by pronouns on twitter. And even when this shit dies down channels like Hero Hei and Quaterpounder can just transition into bland gamey/anime channels. The same can't be said about channels like Vaush whose sole existence is "dunking on nazis".
As much as I'd love to dunk on the right that it's the most prevalent on their side (and it's gotten so bad that there are), I'd be ridding myself of the head trauma from bashing my table at how balls to the wall crazy leftists to far leftists can be, especially on social media like Twitter.
I consider myself pretty right wing with reasonably conservative beliefs, but back in college, I was more left wing. It would be a lot more simple to say that I'm intrinsically right wing now, but for one major difference.
I'm not fucking crazy.
I don't see anyone with divergent politics being my enemy unless they do or say something retarded, like how pedophilia is a legit sexual orientation, or that the human race is raping the planet without its consent and that we should all strive to kill ourselves, or that children don't have gender and we should raise them as being bland and soulless as possible, or we should segregate; I mean, put minorities into "safe spaces" in order to protect them. Or, heaven forbid, crossdress kids and freely prostitute them to adults as a form of "expression".
And, that's only a sample of what I've seen far leftists advocate for.
I can actually have conversations with other people and expect some level of decorum and civility, or for us to not care about other bullshit and get into the intricate details of why Tamiya is arguably a better brand than Auldey, or vice versa. I expect them to be fucking sane, take a joke, or just...talk about anything else that isn't about how "oppressed" I am, how my life could be better, or that I have to punch a white guy on the street for being a Nazi in order to cleanse myself of their taint.
None of these people have seen actual Nazis, and if they did, social justice warriors would probably worship them. I'm not even kidding. If you were to place a communist, a fascist and a nazi together, all naked, and have them act out, you'd hardly be able to tell the difference.
It isn't an accident that many groups eventually devolve into being the very thing they oppose. Yes, even anti-sjwism. It isn't an accident. Eric Hoffer's "True Believer" elaborates on this phenomena.
