    I geniunely dislike BadEmpanada - definitely a star of the creepier parts of leftube - but when he’s right he’s right.

      What did he do wrong? From what I’ve seen of him his takes are usually pretty based but so ascended from neoliberalim that without much knowledge of geopolitical context it can be difficult to follow

        Don’t get me wrong… BE had some really good takes back when I was watching them - but their “holier than thou” attitude turned me off. I stopped watching them after they made the “All US military personel are murderers” claim - which is just such a Hollywood-leftist take I couldn’t believe it.

            Look - this whole pretend-hostility towards military veterans you are demonstrating? It was never a “left” thing - it was invented by right-wing propagandists after the Vietnam War, okay?

            So please stop with the Hollywood-leftism - you’re not helping anyone.

              Sorry my disdain for the empire’s kind murderers and rapists doesn’t jive with your views.

                  I keep forgetting that to be a real leftist you need to glorify murderers who are the arms of imperialism. Maybe my “the gangs of pillagers and rapists bulldozing the global south aren’t nice” worldview is too utopic.
