You think you can defeat my argument with a pig shitting on its own balls? That’s a logical fallacy!
Argumentum ad porcus puppis sagittis
You're right, Natalie, it's just a signpost to indicate nobody should take you seriously or listen to you
They cut a bunch of her stuff out of the doc, they just wanted to use her as a trans millennial face
True, but if only there was some way for her to realise that the Hollywood machinery of the Democratic party might use her... If only her naivety didn't force her to embrace that oppurtunity to be an apologist for the worst of the status quo and box her into being a post-left grifter. If only...
It was always going to be like that, maybe she had some Westwing style dream where if she was just able to convince Hillary she would change who she's been her entire life - or maybe contra was just excited that that meant she made it. Neither were true.
Person licking the boot is shocked the boot is still used to kick their teeth in.
Almost as funny as posting Elon and Ghislane
how does she have bisexual lighting while hillary is just totally flat
Colors just sort of fade near Hilldawg
It takes a very powerful light source to illuminate an object that is incandescent and I'm told that Hillary is light itself so that probably outshines the bisexual lighting that breadtubers like Natalie Points require to live.
She's always been a lib. She just gets a lot of hate because most leftists only support trans people because they think we're politically reliable
they do? good Lord lmfao.
so everyone needs to know there are entire classes of trans folk who:
-simp the military -are liberal or even conservative -very much just want to disappear into a passing gender role of choice and integrate into society completely so they can go back to being thoughtlessly bourgeoise.
it is, as always, a race and class thing. I'm a working class trans femme and i live and breathe communism, but the idea that we're any more politically reliable than any other group is surely shorn of ignorance. There are large contingents of middle class, middle aged, white transfemmes who look at you funny and disinvite you to their functions if you talk about redistributing wealth or abolishing the police
You can tell who values you in all of your trans-self by their reaction to conservative trans people.
If they say "chickens voting for KFC" or anything similar, then they never valued trans people beyond what they could gain from them politically.
No sane human responds that way to someone who is under serious threat. It's just mocking that individual and the hurdles/threats they face everyday.
I want to see my fellow trans people do better than licking the boots of the status quo...
idk she had a lot more radical pretenses before, though it's partly also a Destiny thing where you can attract leftists by focusing on having cogent criticisms of rightwingers and hiding that you yourself are just a different flavor of neoliberal ghoul. Even government-funded PhiTube gives stronger endorsements of radical politics, which is part of why she plainly does not get the same hate even though she's also a trans "breadtube" lady.
I think the main thing though, and the name was always a giveaway, is that "breadtube" was a fucking mistake and anyone able to build a platform on it would immediately become some self-absorbed new media labor aristocrat. Yes, that includes Shawn and Hbomb, but they are clever enough to avoid talking about who they support, unlike Contra.
check out her pre-transition videos; she was a rabid anti-islamist.
Yeah I remember when she was talking about "political Islam" and didn't explain what she meant by that.
Damn Natalie you used to be coolish what the entire fuck happened?
Was she really? AFAIK almost all her content was focused on deconstructing bigotry and far right rhetoric, some light feminist criticism, that kind of thing. I'm grateful for her videos, though, I'd probably be a tradcath if it wasn't for her. But it was never radical, or asserting any form of praxis.
Most of her videos denounce praxis entirely. She has an entire cat girl strawman character who's used to mock activists.
her video on "the west" was good for where I was at the time, I haven't watched her shit since the massive fit of nb-phobia
All the Patreon $$
"I make the videos, I swipe the caaard."
no actual ideology
When was she cool (I'm ignorant of how she became popular)
She got popular initially through some high effort video essays on fascists and how to identify them. Over time her videos became more navel gazy and more personal, much more focused on herself. Lots of extravagant costumes and stuff.
Despite her earlier videos deconstructing fascism her diagnosis for the problem always centered around trying to appeal to ivy League educated rich white liberals
Maybe the Baltimore video
I've literally never seen any reference to contrapoints that wasn't on here, calling out shit libbery
tbf I posted a video of her playing The Frog Galliard on harpsichord just because I thought it was pretty dope.
From the thread this is from:
We’re all frustrated that the Democrats aren’t stronger, more effective, further left, savvier about strategy. But the Democrats can at least point to some significant accomplishments in the last 4 years—a major climate bill, infrastructure investment, nominating Justice Jackson
As someone terrified by the prospect of Trump returning to power, can you reassure me that there’s a plausible direct action/non-electoralist means of stopping him that’s more likely to succeed than electing Biden/Harris? Because if not I think you’re a LARPer.
The Democrats don’t WANT to be stronger because the Republican threat is what gets them votes above everything else. Everything must always be on the line, the Democrats constantly on the edge of losing power, or they would actually lose their power and some change might actually occur. If you’ve actually been around, you’d know that most people aren’t big fans of either party but feel they need to vote for the “lesser evil.” This is why Hillary and the DNC supported Trump’s candidacy for 2016, and Democrats put millions of dollars into funding election denialist Republican politicians. The only way to truly get rid of the Republican Trumpist threat is to oust from power the people that brought them into existence and allowed them to exist while they wielded state power (not because they aren’t savvy about strategy but because they are).
These “achievements” are nothing compared to the continued support for the imperialist exploitation of the globe, systemic racism, native genocide, immigrant concentration camps, and exploitation of the domestic working class.
Yeah I'm not frustrated with the Democrats at all, not one bit, lol. Sure it's infuriating when they tell their lies but it's some cursed samsara shit to expect anything from them. No expectations, no suffering.
i dont think biden can beat trump
like, not at all
i think he is going to lose handily and it wont even be close in the electoral college
so posing him as the only way to beat trump is more or less an open admission to me that the democrats fully plan to lose
Got her ass
I couldn't be within 50 feet of Hillary Clinton without attempting to strangle her and screaming "This is for the Libyan people"
Maybe I'm just built different or maybe I'm not a liberal
