Contrapoints got me on the right track, but I could also imagine Vaush and his edginess being a good foot in the door for some.
That's how it worked for me.
When I started college, I thought Steven Crowder was a smart guy (only because I was a complete idiot back then.) I would watch his debates and think he was so clever debating unprepared college students. Which led to debates with Vaush and Destiny in them. Which then led into deeper breadtube.
Now I'm more leftist than Destiny or Vaush from watching Noah Samson and the like. Noah is my favorite breadtuber right now.
Contra would be really good if she didn’t suffer from chronic foot-in-mouth disease.
Absolutely. I don't watch her very much anymore, but if nothing else she was a big contributing factor to getting me solidly left.
Initially the most significant was Richard Wolff. His video popped up on my homepage and I actually only clicked it because I wanted to laugh at how dumb this "Marxist professor" must be. That did not happen. Instead he absolutely blew my mind. After doing some research, I discovered that Jordan Peterson had actually mentioned him. He said Richard Wolff had refused to debate him, but once I looked into Wolffs side of the story, I discovered that was a lie. And no wonder, it was obvious Wolff knew his stuff and would have been able to destroy Peterson in a debate.
That was when the wall came down for me. I became unsatiably curious about everything Marxist and anticapitalist, which led me to watching Second Thought, and then eventually leftist creators like Shaun, hbomherguy, some more news, and Hakim just to name a few. I was addicted and watched hours of this stuff everyday until my mind,attitudes and politics changed completely.
Which breadtube creators helped you out?
