I didn’t mirror this Reddit thread on archive.org because there were no comments at the time of posting this, so basically all the useful information is in this post.
I’ve replaced www.youtube.com URLs with yewtu.be, an open source YouTube webclient, for better privacy. Just switch the domains back if you want undo this and get back to the vanilla YouTube link.
I will also be rating the channels from 1-10 based on quality. though opinions may vary so watch them all. i will NR if i have not watched/heard enough to comment.

TL:DR Fuck that guy
Great list! I would add Luna but thats it
I feel BadEmpananda & Second Thought also belong
Second Thought really makes good videos and best part of them he makes them in a way that they’re suitable to even show to libs, centrists, etc While still explaining issues from a Marxist perspective. Although he doesn’t spell it out.
Basically it’s great normie-bait
Bad Empanada? TF are you on about. This little weasel was a major Uighur genocide blowhard wanker. He needs to fuck off permanently.
Nobody is 100% perfect His takes on South America are good
Nobody said he was 100% perfect, whatever his takes on low hanging fruit such as South America do nothing to excuse his deep throating sinophobic CIA rhetoric against the Chinese. If the US focus was currently on South America I’ve no doubt he’d be singing a different tune, fuck him. There’s no comeback for him without a massive grovelling apology.
Bay Area415😢
Poor guy. I hope he and his family are safe and well.
Whwhwhat happened to him beyond erasing his channel!?
Lots of death threats and I think some legal troubles too. Nasty stuff
Oof… Fuck
He’s active on discord. He said he won’t be coming back anytime soon.
There is also second thought, Luna Oi, and BadEmpanada.
No to Bad Empanada. He’s just another breadtube scam artist.
Is there a channel that also tackles the issue that is almost always avoided of religion being inherently reactionary (yes, religion in general no matter how people try to convey it as “bAsEd” with dishonest revisionism) and why?
Ex-Fundie Diaries might be helpful, but it’s not a political channel, nor do they seem to believe religion is inherently reactionary. Other than that, Religion is just idealism so any Marxist critique of idealism is a critique of all religion.
Yeah, but somehow people seems blind that religion is idealism and even reactionary without the magic elements… But thanks a lot! I would recommend Aron Ra.
BadEmpanada (Talks a lot about South American issues) 9/10
He has a temper in his comment section and acts really weird on twitter sometimes, but his scripted video essays are great
Also talks shit about China in a very ignorant way… This is why for me is 8/9-10
huh, good to know. I’ve only been watching his South American videos because I don’t really know much about socialism in South America and South American history.
Sounds like he should stick to what he knows: South American politics and issues
Yeah, exactly. He even called Daniel Dumbrill a “sexpat” when Daniel wanted to have a discussion with him.
I’ve noticed that over the past year or so he’s softened in his stance towards China. There’s still a long way to go but for an A*stralian he’s making some decent strides.
Good to know too.
This cunt needs to go waaay further than stance softening to undo the damage he’s done. Many of us had to go to a lot of trouble to counter his lies.
Stop spamming Bad Empanada. He’s a grifter, he’s no leftist at all.
The Kavernacle (Anti British Imperialism, Pro IRA, Geopolitics, Anti-Capitalist, Anti-Fascist, Feels Taiwan is part of China like Northern Ireland is part Ireland proper) 8/10
As there any way to watch this on Odysee? Youtube can delete this anytime they want to. At least in odysee you can recover deleted videos on lbry.
As far as I know they’re completely different platforms, so not unless it gets mirrored over.
