something for you libs who still believe in electoralism

Whether or not you think that a Biden vote is harm reduction, the portrayal of the non voter/third party voter argument as “buh buh buh revolution…?” is pretty tired. When Joe has promised to be tougher on the “enemies” of the US than Trump, had credible allegations of rape against him, and has also blamed China for the virus… I’m just sick of all the left adjacent super popular breadtubers calling people’s reasonable trepidations about voting "larping ". You can make arguments for harm reduction, this video isn’t that.
you see if you are a leftists that wants real structural change and has lost faith in bourgeois democracy, you are a larper
LARPing is when you’re not a pseudosocialist petit bourgeoise entertainment brand who preaches incrementalism to further self-interested careerism.
And the less money you make the more of a LARPer you are
The Chad Shaun vs. The Virgin Contra
“a vote for Biden is a vote against Trump”
Kill meMaking a strawman called Tabi-Chan to deride for an entire video while talking down to them endlessly really strikes me as incredibly stuck up and divisive. It does not strike me as convincing. It does not strike me as a good way to reach out and convince people.
The only people this will appeal to are the people that already agree with it. The people it is trying to ““convince”” are going to just look at it and be offended by the shamelessly offensive caricature Contra is presenting of them.
This is a grift. She is pandering to her audience while shamelessly aiming to trigger the people the video claims it wants to convince.
90% of this website is Tabi-chan.
Yes and the video has succeeded in its intention – to trigger us into sharing. It has done fuck all to convince anyone other than people that already agreed with it.
It’s all about getting more shares. Contra doesn’t actually give a fuck about meaningfully affecting the election in any way, she has just solely made this for grift.
well i finish it, bad video overall, made weak attemps to try to get the left to vote by saying that biden will move left on the issues that matter and its mostly to give morale to the libs so they move seas and mountains to VOTE even with the voter suppresion
actual quote: “At most you lose one day to vote, make day of it :))))” 🤔
yeah like, people can lose their jobs if they wasted a day voting and by the end you would probably feel bad about voting for a bad candidate
it’s pretty telling that her list of things that Hillary wouldn’t have done that Trump did was literally 100% symbolic actions.
I feel like a certain part of Twitter gets way too mad at ContraPoints over the most specious shit imaginable, but if she gets dunked on for her lukewarm takes in this video she deserves it. im gonna vote gloria la riva, and I suggest you do too.
Wow sweet can’t wait to not watch this video
you are not missing much, trust me
Natalie has me convinced and I will be voting my conscious this election by Voting Blue No Matter Who™ and casting my ballot for
HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON
ITS HER TIME
SHES ELECTABLE IF YOU VOTE FOR HER
Sorry, I’m going to have to close this thread because it breaks the !videos comm rules. As you can clearly see in the sidebar, this place is “Breadtube if it didn’t suck.”
sorry i expected better when i posted it, but after watching it its probably for the best
I haven’t actually watched it either >_>
I just wanted to do the joke where I pretend to actually moderate.
its a waste of time trust me
Just finished and all i can think is that “breadtube” is now collectively trying to backpedal their propaganda efforts (just somemorenews and now contra that i know of). But for this vid specifically, it felt like a shitty, forced “debunk” of leftist talking points when it comes to apathy for voting.
i feel the somemorenews video was better, his video was biden was bad but trump is worse, and not having a straw-man leftists to dunk in
Why are they backpedalling now? It’s weird to see both SMN and now contra put out the same sort of video within a few days
they are scared about libs blaming them for not making pro-biden content before the election, unlike the best breadtuber Shaun who was attack by vaush for not saying VOTE biden, he is the only good breadtuber
It seemed like the UK general election destroyed whatever liberalism remained in Shaun’s mind.
No idea who this video is made for, libs who follow her are already voting and if you’re already not going to vote for Biden I fail to see how any argument she makes will change your mind
its a dunking on leftists to appease the libs video

Good post, OP
when i posted it, i didnt think it was gonna be as bad as a Vaush video
It’s almost amazing how bad it is chefs kiss
Haven’t seen it
Guessing people here will hate it
so far its kinda like the somemorenews video so it would be aproved by like 80% of the libs here
forget about it, its a stop “being an edgy leftists you” video with the “voting is easy” and “democracy still work”
When the party coalesced against Bernie and pushed Biden over the line on Super Tuesday people in here were seething, foaming mad. Now I am seeing unironic blue lever pulling takes in here. What the fuck? Really?
american leftists will always have a bit of liberalism in them
I’m prepared for the downvotes and support the revolution, but considering we don’t currently have the left leadership in place to consolidate power doesnt it make sense to vote for Biden just to get a fascist out of office?
the problem is that there is no definition of fascist that includes Trump but excludes Biden, so really America currently has social fascism, not president will change that, heck even a bernie president would probably fight tooth and nail for some weak reforms that wouldnt achieve much.
really only way to get a little change in america is to organize against both republicans and democrats, and voting dems wont acomplish anything, because they like the social fascism, maybe not the racism but they like the surveillance, they like the corporatism and despotism, no dem would be allow to remove those things and I believe thats the problem with supporting not just the biden but the dems
