How can this man say something based like this and still believe on anti china nonsense?
That last line seems wholly incompatible with being anti China if he actually believed it
He probably doesn’t believe much of anything he says and co-opts contentious talking points to generate views and clicks. Just another breadTube grifter. He’s not wrong in this instance but that doesn’t matter to him.
He’s had this same allegation levelled against him in the past by Dr Bair during his taking apart of BE’s Uighur genocide crap:
So he’s just picked up this talking point as a juicy bait for clicks.
yeah that makes sense then
Damn, Dr. Bair is based.
Badempanada is a weird mix for me. He is a third worldist, an western leftist, a weird global south larper all at once. Its quite sure from his videos he is no principled marxist but when he is looking mostly at the south american issues he is able to detach from western leftist narratives and come back to the insufferable cracker attitude for any other topics. His holier than thou attitude is to the blame, he wanted give the nuianced analysis but some times comes out missing the mark by a mile. Inability to self correct or retrospect makes him more insufferable. In this post he is denouncing the lefty life stylist who is much bigger loser than a tankie. In other issue he will denounce tankie once again.

He’s a liberal. He just likes Che, and latin America. So he hates everyone the west wants him to hate, except for LatAm socialists.
that piece of shit pushed the uyghur bullshit hard, he is complicit in the tankie red fash narrative he is now denouncing.
fuck that guy.
Yeah he himself has been a major player in the game he’s criticizing in this post. Maybe he’s starting to see the light now. Hopefully.
first second thought, now badempanada? wow nice
What happened with Second Thought? I’m not up to date on YouTube community posts
he’s a Marxist Leninist now thats friends with Hakim and Yugopnik. They have quite a funny podcast together too.
Oh hasn’t he been that way for a while? If I’m remembering the interview he had with Bay Area 415 correctly, he got radicalized from working a shitty job at Best Buy.
IIRC he said something about the DHS visiting him regarding his “anti-american sentiment” turning him ML, although I think he was probably radicalized a bit before that. The visit from the feds was probably just the tipping point
now he puts a lot of ML type stuff on his channel, but since the Ukrainian invasion I’m not so sure…
Yeah that video psychoanalyzing Putin was pretty bad. I hope he comes out with a better video on the war, one that’s more materialist.
IDK, I think he seems to have bent to far to the liberal side for this one. He may become a revisionist. I hope he puts out more radical works, because even though he is trying to radicalize libs, you can’t concede any more than a little ideological ground, and this was quite a lot of ground.
I agree. Yugopnik and Hakim should bully him about it
white leftist in the imperial core. dont put your hopes up. he will dissapoint.
Ill keep them slightly raised
I hope he becomes full-on ML now
He has held this point of view for quite some time I think.
Oh shit, hitting it hard. This fella whoever he is understands the left more than the left itself.
