I’m just happy to see BE getting some fresh air.
I’d never heard about this guy before and although I have had limited time to watch today, I looked him up finding many accusations and people freaking out over him. I found an article about him that was super aggressive while likening him to a nazi but because the vibe of the article was so excessive, I looked into the writer and found the writer was from Israel. Does anyone here have much of an opinion on him that is grounded a little more in reality rather than seemingly character assassination?
Someone once said something to the effect that he’s what happens when you spend so long debunking the dumbest assholes on earth that you start thinking you’re a genius. He’s staunchly, aggressively antizionist and has way better takes on geopolitics than most but he’s also an abrasive asshole and not a quarter as smart as he thinks he is.
He’s a Professional Takes-Haver™. Many of his takes are good. Some are really, really bad. It’s too late for me to go digging, but I assume somebody else will.
Just from this comment alone I figured out who made the video before clicking it
he peddles anti-china nonsense
This video is 90% cubans speaking in their own words about their lives. I don’t really think it’s necessary to do this “oh this YouTuber said something about china i disagree with five years ago so this is valueless”. That’s a child’s way of looking at the world.
A lot of people don’t like when he points out their hipocrisy. I only watch his videos not twitter stuff, and there he rarely misses. It can be hard for some American internet lefties because he doesn’t spare their feelings when they support US imperialism
