For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/gossip

I have a feeling most YouTubers don't believe in anything at all. They just make videos that will fill a niche, and if one of their videos gets ten times more views than the rest, that will become their entire shtick. This is how you get self-described "leftists" like Jimmy Dore cranking out anti-vax videos. You don't need to have a dog in the race. All that matters is the videos are doing numbers, so they keep making them.
Everybody except for the proud racists is looking for content which puts a radical patina on the idea that the Communists are taking things too far.
The ideology you are describing is that of a literal reactionary, a person who has no goals or values but simply reacts to the world around them. Some people would call it nihilism.
Is Dore still pretending to be leftist? Should’ve dropped the act a long time ago.
