1 year agoThis dude is trying to get people to think, to notice, to act, he’s trying to educate people and to help them change. Maybe don’t immediately disregard him as “not a true socialist”, maybe don’t outright jump to calling him a tankie. We’re all in this hell hole together, the least we could do is help each other out and spread the educational content, work together to give a friendly summary on our points of view, and keep moving forward.
I like his content, and I like that he’s trying, that’s my opinion on him.
Legit question @people who know more about Theo than me, but isn’t Theo like, actually a pretty nice guy, even if right wing? Dude kinda reminds me a bit of Destin from SmarterEveryDay, who’s obviously on the redneck side of things, is right wing as far as I can tell, but is still extremely knowledgeable, incredibly chill, and actually cares about the foundations of his stances and doesn’t buy into divisionist rhetorics.
I might be assuming things and jumping to conclusions, which is why I am asking this, but I vaguely recall a video he made which clearly showed he held right wing positions but had no issue tearing down right wing propaganda and stances if they were bullshit.
