I am conflicted
On the one hand, it sounds like maybe something significant that has nothing to do with political propaganda
On the other hand, it is Second Thought
I think I will grab the transcript without giving the video a long enough watch that it counts as a view, and see what it has to say
Lmao
Though I guess this is who some of these videos are for. Well meaning (I hope) liberals who are still on the fence about socialism for some reason.
Hey how, you can totally be a socialist and think Second Thought is trash.
Sssh you’re puncturing the narrative
It is IMPERATIVE for their argument that I be hostile to socialism, even though I am being perfectly friendly to the content of this video (which they are claiming is socialism even though as far as I can tell it’s a pretty mild form of anti-hypercapitalism which almost everyone can agree with at this point).
If they didn’t recast my arguments into totally different things then they would have to do some thinking in order to disagree with me. “lol he’s a liberal” is cheap, easy, fun, and popular.
