Mostly talking about stuff like breadtubers, chapo, and media personalities like that, I can kind of tell why people like Bernie and Jezza where they’re at. Is it the added wealth being a popular media personality gives you, the need to give a consistent product, the need to appeal to a wide breadth of people, and so on?
edit: also props to Brett at RevLeft for continuing to radicalise himself as the show has gone on
I kinda think i get where she was coming from on that, maybe?
Specifically, I was listening to a recent episode of trillbillies, and there was a segment where they were reading some police union guy’s letter to other cops in the union or some shit (I’m hazy on the context). Anyway, the hosts noted that throughout the letter, in the way they talked about themselves and to each other, there was a clear sort of quasi-working class solidarity and recognition of themselves as workers (at least relative to the administrative figures they shit-talk throughout the letter).
Now, the trillbillies made a more more plainly useful point with that observation, specifically that their solidarity helps makes their police union strong, and god fucking damn look at the shit they can get away with because of that power. Amber seemingly wanted to… … … suggest that they have some inner hint of genuine working class sentiment? or some shit? I dunno, that same letter they read on trillbillies had tons of talk re-affirming the occupier perspective cops have towards other people they’re supposed to serve. So, yeah… I forget if I had some fucking point here, done typing this bitch, post
