    left-liberal breadtube pioneers switching to just talking about art and culture is probably for the best ngl, they know more about it and can engage in more self-obsessed theatrics without having to dress it up as anything more than that

    Contrapoints being a zionist, Philosophy Tube going "Both sides" wrt Gaza, Hbomberguy not saying jack shit about the genocide, they probably killed "breadtube".

    Good thing is that means real leftist content creators like Hakim, Yugopnik, 2nd Thought, revolutionarythot, and even Luna Oi and NonCompete have filled the vaccum and grown.

    Though Shaun still takes forever on his projects, he's at least stood firm on his principles including Palestine. Funny that a lot of KKKontrapoints-and-adjacent creators hated him for not compromising his views with liberal lesser-evilism back when Breadtube was still a thing

    She wants her acting career to take off. Which seems unlikely whether she abandons any principles or not. I think she's gotten as far into Hollywood as her internet fame is gonna allow. I'm willing to bet it's pretty hard for a trans woman in her mid 30s to break into the movie business and probably impossible to get big.

    Was it worth it for a bit part in a few episodes of Star Wars: the Acolyte?

    She also ayes a bit part in that gsme of thrones show people didn't like! This is totally gonna go somewhere! Oh shes also British. None of this is fair and should not be the case, but Hollywood is Hollywood, being a trans British women in her mid 30s who made her fame off left wing by Hollywood standards YouTube videos jusr isnt gonna land you much that is worth sacrificing your morals for, especially cause im absolutely certain she was rich as fuck before starting a YouTube channel 15 or so years ago

    Yeah iirc in one of the podcasts she's been on she said she went to a very expensive private school and was pretty sure a bunch of her fellow alumni went on to become removed

    Edit: "went on to become feds"
    Don't get why that synonym gets blocked by the automod

    We need to respect hurt Zionist feelings and beware of rise of antisemitism of the left, basically.

    Nobody involved in breadtube actually read The Conquest of Bread I am convinced. Or at least there was a serious lack of content about friends who have a small shanty greenhouse producing anomalous quantities of grapes.

    Everyone forgets that the label was created by radlib redditors circa 2017 as a means to identify channels that were not actively components of the fash pipeline being aggresively pushed by youtube at the time. It was just about wanting to enjoy youtube slop with less risk of getting milkshake ducked... not trying to prop up youtubers up as the vanguard of the revolution.

    Of course this created an audience which the same youtube algorithm and incentives ran their course to simultaneosly radicalize (in the sense of needing increasingly hotter takes to stand out) and subsume what critique existed.

    While breadtubers are usually bad the youtube landscape in general has improved from what it was back when any given video was a coinflip as to whether is would promote white replacement cospiracies... I think? tbh nowdays I only watch youtube videos by rss or hexbear links so I dunno.

    Leftist video essays have migrated from the breadtube formula, and that's great news.

    Not gonna forget when Innuendo Studios did a collab with the increasingly fame-chasing Philosophytube to do nazi propaganda to own the tankies

    Wow, that's fucking awful. IS made some extremely lib arguments way before that made me kind of dislike him, but I guess I forgot it over time.

    It's also funny because phitube made a video not that long ago about how platforming bullshit pop history is a dangerous trap for people in her position (the thing about grid maps).
