Extremely good Bad Empanada video. Yeah this dude can sometimes be a lot but literally every word in this video is absolutely spot on IMO, definitely should be used to dunk on “please bro just vote” libs.

    I think the part I liked most (and found relevant given the people I know) was when he was calling out people who pretend like voting Kamala is a hard choice for them but enjoy memeing them or championing them all the time.

    I liked this video, but I was surprised he lumped Hasan in with Vaush as fake radicals who always end up supporting Dems.

    I don’t watch much Hasan, is he telling people to vote blue?

      No, I don’t know why BadEmpanada is spending so much energy hating on Hasan. He just keeps making up lies about Hasan, while simultaneously trying to act casual, like he doesn’t care that much and that he’s just “asking questions”. It’s really weird.

      Hasan just got kicked out of the DNC and explicitly said it was due to his pro-Palestine position. And he’s encouraging people to not support them while they are championing genocide.

        The video details what he was calling out Hasan for (in a whole 2 paragraphs of text up for half a second). Basically, Bad Empanada thinks Hasan is guilty of some light-hearted memeing of the Biden administration, which downplays the harm Democrats are committing.

        Aaaand after typing that out, I think that’s the last time I’ll be sharing the latest beef between leftist Internet personalities. That’s some shit I do not need to worry about.

          I’m talking about this video which is literally just a cycle of BE making some shit up but stating it as a question, being shown to be wrong, and moving on to making another thing up. It’s kinda embarrassing that he even uploaded this after it making him look so bad. And that paragraph kinda shows the problem. He’s just incoherent, so he has to asterisk his point in the corner to actually get anything across, and it’s very different from the actual content of the videos.

          NOTE: I would not encourage anyone waste their time watching that video for some shitty streamer drama. But I post it purely for fact-checking purposes of people who have nothing better to do. I already wasted the time watching it and don’t wish that upon others.

          I have commented about this before but there’s some people who really leave a distaste. Especially when they talk about things in a very disingenuous way. Yeah people made all the coconut jokes or whatever I don’t think he ever downplayed what israel does or usa does.

          Same with zei squirrel who also did this type of thing while back. I get that everybody is very deservedly angry but some people need to tone down. It just comes off as rabid. Like squirrel literally said “Hasan made jokes about kamala and thus he has been pretending to be anti genocide”.

          BE is pulling the same thing.

          BadEmpanada is the classic example of a man who thinks his shit doesn’t stink and spends 95% of his time talking about how other peoples’ shit stinks. The guy is a disgusting human being.

      I don’t think Hasan is fake but that scene when he shaked hands with Kirk and just let that obnoxious “kamala is brat” lady stick the sticker on him was extremely low energy soy behavior, he should step up that shit as a leftist public figure. I’m not saying he should be beating the shit out of them but refusing such interactions should be the least he should do IMO.

      "Not perfect" is a weird way of describing a guy who proudly doxxes people he disagrees with and laughs when it results in them being harassed. This guy’s a complete asshole and cult of personality has only enabled him to become more unhinged.

      He gets a pass on CRAZY abusive behavior and it just blows my mind.

          BayArea was far from a fascist and this dumbass doxxed him. As a result. BayArea415 and his family received death threats, and BadEmpanada basically said "tough shit, he deserves it". It blows my mind that he gets a pass for this, but at the same time I shouldn’t be too surprised because people are understandably hesitant about calling him out hard and then it resulting in BadEmpanada having you doxxed.

          The fact is, he’s a white privileged leftist with serious anger issues and he always seems to get a pass despite numerous red flags.

      He’s out of his mind. The guy accused me, a POC, of being a white supremacist because I called him out for going way overboard like doxxing people and their families including their kids. He also mocked women in America as privileged for wanting abortion access.

      The guy’s completely out to lunch and I can’t take anything he says seriously because he’s so disingenuous. He’s abusive as fuck and weirdly proud of it, as are his core followers.

      Also spouts baseless stuff as facts at times. Like saying there’s chinese zionist movement, or anything about bangladesh recently. He is very disorienting.

    Anybody got a TLDR?

    Edit: I just want to know, does he talk about third party candidates at all or just telling people to not vote at all?

    Edit 2: please?

        BE’s videos are wildly all over the place, nobody should be required to watch an entire video where it going to be something like a 50/50 chance that its light on analysis and heavy on rage bait and a waste of 15~120 minutes of your life.

        You could have just as easily not responded.

          What the content is, who it’s by, or how long it could be genuinely does not matter to me. To me, tl;dr requests are the sign of treat-brained laziness at best, and a desire to get someone else to do the thinking for whoever’s requesting it at worst. No investigation, no right to speech.

            Ah, I see you’ve read Mein Kamph multiple times to fully understand the nuance. owl-wink

            No investigation, no right to speech.

            Wrong application of this phrase. Not applicable in this context. The commenter was asking for a synopsis, they weren’t making a bold proclamation about something they know nothing about.

            Hell, me replying to their comment with “I refuse to watch the video…” and then giving my opinions would have been the place to quote Mao, not them asking for a condensed version by a comrade who spends more time in the BreadTube mines to give context that it would take multiple hours of video watching to fully grasp.

              This is a shitposting site. Get out of your own ass. You cannot seriously fix your face to tell me you do any real educating here lmfao. And even you did, I don’t recognize this guy; and as such, have no reason to trust in his good faith. My organization and educational efforts are saved for my people first; I don’t know this randy.

                Okay so what about being a shitposting site makes it okay to just go off on a random person asking for a summary?

                You pulled out “no investigation no right to speak” when justifying your comment elsewhere in this thread. Make up your mind.

                  Because it’s still asking for someone else to go to the trouble of engaging with something to regurgitate rather than doing it themselves. Maybe you don’t have a problem with that, but I do on some level. Now if you want me to drop it, then drop it; that was the point of “If you say so”.

          My point was that because you’re asking for a tl;dr rather than engaging with the content and doing any kind of thought of your own on it, you really don’t deserve one

          Something to the tune of “no investigation, no right to speech”. Your posting, then and now, is an inconveniencing of electrons and a waste of all of our time. Don’t scapegoat the autistic for your own laziness.

            Wow, rude.

            I tried to watch the video, couldn’t get through it. Hence the request for a tldr. Honestly I’d be fine if just ignored but y’all don’t need to make assumptions about my abilities and hound me for a simple request.

      I refuse to watch the video but if his past is anything to rely on, the answer to your question is, “No.”

      I would imagine that Bad Empanada (BE), if they spoke about 3rd party candidates, would describe any candidate in the USA presidential election as either a gleeful champion of the Israeli genocide of Palestinians or too weak politically/personally to fight against a system that is geared towards supporting the Israeli genocide of Palestinians. IF BE wanted to talk about third party candidates in the US elections… he’s gonna be contrarian no matter what. He’ll most likely choose to describe any third party candidates as willfully complicit in the genocide or that the candidate’s anti-genocide rhetoric is completely hollow (because they have no power to change anything, they’re just sheep dogging the anti-genocide voters into complacency, their just grifters, etc).

      BE is not somebody you watch regularly for nuanced analysis.
