Just listened to a conversation with amber where she basically makes excuses for Fascists for 40 minutes
stuff like "Well you call them the scum of the earth, why wouldnt they hate you"
Why are parts of the left like this? Seemingly caring more about courting the psychopath incel who wants a white ethnostate rather than stand in solidarity and antiracism with POC?
i always get disgusted and disillusioned when i come upon it
LMAO. This is the shit you guys are actually mad about? She was fucking asked as point of the show, why fascists are like that.
What should her answer have been? WHO CARES WHY FASCISTS ARE THE WAY THEY ARE??? FUCKING KILL ALL OF THEM THEY'RE HORRIBLE PEOPLE ONE DAY A GREAT RAIN WILL COME TO WASH AWAY THE STREETS.
Like holy shit guys what she's saying makes sense if you actually understand your enemies. It's so laughable that people constantly need this hugbox bullshit where everything needs to work through Victorian morality of bad people get bad things and good people get good things. It's literally no different than the Democrat PMC.
Also her first fucking point is, maybe if average people could live good lives, there wouldn't be a gigantic mass of weirdos spending their time devising ideological theories about how they don't have good lives because of women and minorities.
The reason Amber is a Chapo is that when she wants to she can make her points seem edgy and inflammatory.
There's one episode I remember where Amber was advocating something to the effect that the internet should be regulated exactly the same way China does it.
Will and Felix immediately balked and so did a lot of commentaries online.
I certainly didn't "like" hearing this, but the reason I didn't "like" it is because I have a unique relationship with the internet based on when I was born and the person that I am, the vast majority of people did not and do not use the internet to educate themselves. They did not seek out obscure knowledge and keep challenging themselves with materials they found freely online. For most people the internet is an environmentally wasteful extractive dopamine drip and plastic delivery service, and in that context Amber is 100% right that China is managing their internet better than the US.
The firewall really is perfect online policy. Keeps yer nan from going crazy over anti-vaccine nonsense, but also lets you into the "wilder" internet if you meet a minimum threshold of tech savvy to find and install a VPN.
