Recently started looking into actual decent hard-left content creators, discovered BadEmpanada. I could give more detail, but I’m more interested on any critiques from those who know him or his content better.

    I and several others were advisors to BayArea415. BadEmpanada kept attacking him, especially on the point of there being no genocide in Xinjiang against the Uyghurs, and then later doxxed BayArea415, resulting in ultra-right threats to his life and several of his friends in real life.

        He went through his history on Reddit and eventually pieced together who BayArea415 was due to Bay foolishly revealing certain details of his in a very old post.

        BadEmpanada was very popular on Reddit (but larped as an actual Latino rather than an Australian who simply moved to Argentina and an expat/immigrant to the country before he was revealed not to be… I remember those days).

        He has also denied the genocide in Argentina against the various Indigenous groups.
