Will the failson will become a columnist. Felix a twitch streamer. Matt is doing his cushvlog thing. Virgil doing bad faith.
Don’t know what amber is doing tbh.
Despite the somewhat justified hate she gets, amber is the most likely of them to actually go do something tangible irl. Whether that “organising” would be worthwhile who knows, but yeh the rest of them will just be media grifters of one type of another.
explain, how is anything they do grifting? I see this thrown around a lot, but for someone to run a grift it needs to involve an actual scam
how is it an op if they have said multiple times that listening to their podcast and posting isn’t a substitute for politics
Did she ever mention what her organizing experience entailed? It was always brought up on the subreddit, but never in any detail.
It’s just some failed grad student organizing in the wake of occupy, if I’m remembering correctly. After that she got into some fights in DSA committees. Based on how her defenders talk about her in order to justify her shitty takes, you’d imagine she was traveling the land sowing wildcat strikes or in the leadership of a rebellious teamsters local.
Did they formally announce this?
I mean, I don’t think the podcast is going anywhere, but k.
why would they end it? It’s consistently in the top 3 of patreon. Other projects came and went, but they are up there. Even if you’re not feeling the pod anymore, why give that up?
Because they are embarrassed by it and are desperately trying to get a serious job instead of permanently being “the bros who are mean online”
Who cares
