Why does he need to be defended? Does he actually contribute to the issues he is concerned with in any way that doesn't also benefit his brand? How would any streamer, regardless of their professed politics, be worth anything to a revolutionary process? Why is he not a mere spectacle?

Has he reacted to Mamdani disingenuously attacking Cuba and Venezuela yet? All I see online is him glazing Mamdani 24×7

I don't know but your question does add to my skepticism of what streamers, even the less toxic and ostensibly revolutionary ones, are actually doing for us. Discourse feels so hopeless right now. A lot of people are in denial about the severity of what's happening and when I see folks caught up in streamer drama it makes me feel a deep sense of impending doom.
