watch her stupid ass cry “i said UNFORTUNATELY” when people give her shit for this like that makes it better
also “60,000”. genocide denial. nobody actually believe israel has only killed 60,000 of these people
I’m old enough to remember when her main schtick was deliberately offending trans people with hot takes. I see she’s moved onto ‘tankies’ now 🤷
honestly shitting on trans people and ‘tankies’ are her greatest hits, she always plays them again
Unfortunately given that trans people are essentially forced by their own social interests into tankiedom that just means she is annoying more people.
Can’t wait for her “why I left the left” video.
She’s basically already done it with envy. She was a fascist before transition, now she’s a deeply annoying left liberal of the sort I thought died out in 2007.
Which is an improvement but not enough. I think she was genuinely shocked that her attempted anti left satire with Abby the anarchist catgirl backfired because Abby was obviously correct and her mediation was obviously liberal equivocation
Abby is more sympathetic, but at least her depiction in the video about voting made her and Natalie look extremely stupid because it created a false dichotomy between “vote dem” and “don’t vote for anyone out of protest bc revolution i guess?” with no notion of starting an independent electoral movement to compliment whatever sort of revolutionary movement you’re interested in pursuing.
Libs getting shocked that someone spending a disproportionate amount of time on the left while the right is tearing your country’s asshole apart leaves the left
KKKontrapoints
I still remember when she shamed people for not wanting to vote for her fucking decrepit weird-around-kids candidate Joe Biden. The man who won regardless and then allowed “israel” to carry out a genocide and felt so good about it he gave them the means to do it.
Looks like the “tankies” were right lmao
Time to repost my genocide trivialization explainer
Genocide trivialization is a common refrain of fascist discourse, the point of course is to normalize mass slaughter and paint it as an unavoidable feature of human society, while erasing the sociopolitical uniqueness of every genocide…“it happens all the time its not a big deal, and if it happens again big whoop survival of the fittest”
The a-historical insistence that EVERY “civilization” has committed genocide is another tactic of fascist rhetoric. That attempts to obscure the fact that it’s actaully STATES with a specific class character and political project that committ genocide, while merging the idea of states and civilization as being coterminous with each other and that they can’t be distinguished… “we’re all guilty thru out time and space so it would be hypocritical and traitorious to oppose genocide committed by one’s own civilization”
That form of rhetoric also tries to simultaneously collapse the concept of continuity… “it happened so long ago get over it” while also incoherently extending historical continuity past its breaking point… “oh so you condemn the genocide of native Americans, well what about the genocide carried out by the Mongols hmmm”
Basically fascists are ghouls and historically illiterate freaks
So much vindication for the ‘Never liked Contrapoints Gang’
She has sucked for at least 5 years, arguably more - ‘breadtube’ (literally all of the channels that got popular off that suck, but contrapoints especially) and its consequences. she has been muted for quite a while for me but the other week when she added a bunch of flags to her display name “as a joke!!” she got the unfollow and I don’t even really use twitter like that anymore but just got so annoyed lmao
Twitter won’t let me get rid of the flags because they have to reverify me everytime I change my name. It was just a joke about being a Twitter lib I didn’t know WW3 was about to happen I’m sorry 😭😭😭
Less than 48 hours later:
This is why they shouldn’t really be called “tankies” imo. “Tankie” originally referred to an apologist for Soviet aggression. These people are campists—they view the US/Western powers as uniquely evil and support any opposition power, even if a far-right oligarchy.
GIRL YOU ARE A TWITTER LIB AND ALWAYS HAVE BEEN. Your lasting mark on online culture in general is that annoying ass “
they don’t want power they want to critique it” image and the overuse of bisexual lighting & meaningless costume changes in what are supposed to be video essays!!!You make $50k/month on Patreon to post a 1-2 hour video a year!! The last 3 videos you’ve put out in the last 3 years have been: a 2 hour video that basically boils down to ‘what are conspiracies and how do people fall for them’ with some nice set design and costume changes & then your like 4th video about JK Rowling and a video about Twilight. You are Lindsay Ellis core - stop posting about politics like your opinion is worth something!!!

I might be a “campist”, that could be because I live on the receiving end of the big gun that the US and the Western Powers are always pointing at us and just about anything that erodes US power gives me some breathing room. However, I am not a liberal, and she is, and there is NO coming back from that.
I’d rather be a “campist” than a fucking spineless liberal with fascistic fantasies.
However, I am not a liberal, and she is, and there is NO coming back from that.
Well yes, inviting Hillary & Chelsea Clinton into your home (that you bought with your ‘breadtube’ money) to film an episode of Hillary’s TV series is basically the final stage of neoliberalism
Vindicated in my belief that anyone who accused someone else of being a campist should be ignored.
Why do these idiots say things like this? Like its supposed to make em look like a wise sage. And its always done callously with non whites
I’m sure by her standards 9/11 is small fries but she and her lib audience won’t be callous towards that will they?
Enough with the fucking algorithm engaging hot takes. They’re always brain dead nonsenseyeah i think people like this think they look wise. it gives edgy contrarian middle school vibes. "yeah… all those people were killed… but did you know… lots of people get killed or die??
"
Another one of her greatest hits:
God she ended up being so disappointing
This is borderline just racism. Tofu is an incredible and versatile food. Unless you’re white and dumb, apparently
Sometimes I feel like forcing people to learn to have a diverse palette is necessary decolonization
I’m using this line on my kid the next time he refuses to eat his asparagus.
“Honey eat your greens don’t be a KKKolonizer”
what???
“tofu takes the flavour of seasonings, as does meat. and tofu is good for the environment and animals. therefore, not eating meat is stupid”
i literally cannot understand this, meat tastes like ass if it’s unseasoned
meat tastes like ass
This is…bad?
you got me there
freaky
People eat tofu. And not just as a meat replacement lol truly peak whitey
Yep, tofu is very much its own thing and not just (or even primarily) a replacement for meat.
I’ve been eating tofu for a long time, well before I stopped eating meat.
tofu fucking slaps. its so versatile. that is quite literally just some cracker bullshit lmfao. i havent eaten meat in years and i havent looked back. she probably doesnt view “it takes on the flavor of its seasonings” cause white people think salt and pepper are the only ones that exist
A take so white it saps the melanin from your body.
I hate that this artist is a chud, so many hilarious panels ruined by the idea that they are meant to be literal
The one where a mother feeds Biden her baby and he unhinges his jaw like a snake is fucking hilarious
I do love the edit of that other one with the kid getting reverse-racism’ed, where instead he isn’t GOATed and sure as hell isn’t GOATed with the sauce. I haven’t been able to find it in ages.
tofu is the shit
God she is such a lame-o white bread even in food tastes. Also, I wonder if white people just eat tofu as it is or something because I’ve had loads of tofu dishes and they weren’t lacking tastes.
Soft tofu is already good as it is, too. Lots of dishes are just soft tofu and a sauce and they are great.
White people just have a habit of trying to pretend it is a direct meat substitute and so they do things like bake it into oblivion with minimal seasoning. They then complain about the flavorless pucks.
Tofu is fine. The savage Anglo is just incapable of understanding food.
Silken tofu with a bit of sauce on it is delicious
this is the some of the most offensive shit I’ve ever seen and reeks of someone who only eats hamburgers, pizza, and chicken nuggets. Any kind of mental gymnastics to justify murder, apparently
Agedashi with beer?
Jiao yan tofu?
Sichuan braised tofu?
Pressed/dried tofu (Dòufu gān/豆腐干)?
tofu skin, which is generally not sold outside of Asian grocery stores in America, and is a whole different thing (the skin that forms on the soybean milk while forming tofu) and is fucking awesome. If you like the whole “freeze/thaw/press” extra firm tofu for meaty texture I highly recommend you seek this out. A chewy but tender texture that is very meaty and imo is widely overlooked by American vegetarians/vegans. Soy curls are somewhat similar texturally though soy curls are closer to TVP in how they’re made
Not a vegan but tofu does indeed slap, ridiculous take
Maybe she’s only had the rubbery shit stored in water. If she’s eaten restaurant tofu then no excuse, but it took me awhile to learn to freeze, press, and marinate tofu to get itgood in my opinion.
yeah she’s probably only had shitty tofu. i’d think tacos tasted bad if i’d only had my mom’s unseasoned microwaved ground beef and the mildest possible cheddar
I’ve pressed and marinated it, but freezing helps?
Freezing just makes it a different style. Usually double freezing to build up ice crystals. When thawed, this leaves it porous.
It’s good but not better per se. Tofu is already really good before messing with it much. Just gotta cook it right or use the right toppings.
freezing helps?
No, it ruins the texture completely and makes it a gigantic pain to cook. The ice crystals alter it to have the consistency of a dish sponge which makes it tough and too absorbent. Even the taste turned foul like you’d expect from something freezerburned, and this was just after it froze overnight because the fridge got too cold.
Yes, it makes the texture more tender and less spongy
Freezing extracts more water and gives it a “meatier”, more firm texture. Freeze it, thaw and squeeze rest of water out, toss in oil, seasonings, and corn or potato starch, air fry, toss in sauce. Perfect nuggets
cryptotreatlerism
I’m not really a tofu enjoyer, but she is writing like she has never even eaten maybe anything if she thinks the two are equivalent in this specific aspect (or really any other).
people talk about tofu like it’s a wet ricecake. and they talk about rice cakes eating them plain like a sleeve of saltines.
Is anyone actually surprised?
she is a rich settler of the artisan class with petit-bourgeois aspirations, of course her politics are terrible
settler? in the way all whites in america are, or did she move to some other country?
not just whites and not just am*rica but yes
“A single death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic.”

Real “Every accusation is a confession” hours who up
What does this mean in this context?
She doesn’t actually give a shit about the genocide of Palestinians.
Llituro explained it in essence below but essentially that everything bad liberals/capitalists (

A guilty Treatlerite who managed to turn “not making videos” into a career: is there anything more American?
Killing 60,000 people is probably the worst atrocity OF THE LAST TWO YEARS
Wow, with this kind of phrasing CNN and the BBC are going to have a run for their money!
With what Israel has been doing to the people of Gaza, has there been a comparable scenario going back even twenty years? The people of Gaza have been forbidden food, water and basic medical supplies; people are dying horrific deaths, and you think it’s the worst atrocity of the last TWO years? One of Hamas’ former leaders, Yahya Sinwar, who was supposedly along with the rest of Hamas stealing the food of the people of Gaza (they weren’t), was found with only a bunch of mentos, and an autopsy revealed that he was starved with almost nothing to digest in his gut; if one of the leaders of the resistance movement had almost nothing to eat, what then do you think of the rest of the Gazan population, which initially was 2.3 million people? Israel isn’t even content to just kill the people of Gaza, they want them to suffer; they bomb journalists when they’re with their family, they snipe children, they torture and SV them in prisons; an Israeli podcaster who worked with Netanyahu (the podcast is laughably called ‘two nice Jewish boys’) was openly talking about how the Israeli people were so happy that while they (the Israelis) were living their best lives, the Gazans were suffering hell on earth; he was literally saying that it brought them joy to know Gazans had a horrifying existence while they were living comfortably. The cruelty is the point.
Absolutely monstrous of you to diminish the suffering of the people of Gaza; no wonder the global South are so damn sick of the West. Even the libs, who pride themselves as being ‘the good guys’ are nothing more than Imperialists.
America killed at least a million in Iraq and Afghanistan over the time we occupied them
Not a contest though Gaza is having a massive genocide take place that effects 100% of the population
A year ago the NIH estimated that 65k people had been killed, almost double the 37k estimated by the Gaza ministry of health at the time, a difference caused by the GMOH only counting identifiable bodies and not being able to track missing persons. Since then, the GMOH’s ability to count deaths has only gotten worse and there’s been a famine - it wouldn’t surprise me if the total death count by this point surpassed 100k.
100k is probably a gross undercount.
Just farming engagement for her yearly 3+ hour video.
“but in the scope of modern history it is unfortunately far from unique”
Wow, so I guess that means we shouldn’t care then. You heard it here first folks, genocide just happens
sHe sAiD uNfoRtuNatElY
Nature just kinda does that I guess
“Whole groups of people just stop existing entirely sometimes, whatever”
“but in the scope of modern history it is unfortunately far from unique”
That is true, but she is also a citizen of the US so she does have a moral obligation to denounce an atrocity her country is commiting
