Vaushites are way more right-wing that Vaush himself. The guy is somewhere between John Oliver and Sam Seder politically, way to the left of Destiny. He has real critiques of capitalism and imperialism, he's been consistently pro-Palestine, normal socdem stuff. The problem is that aside from the normal anti-tankie/pro-NATO brain worms that most radlibs have, he's also a really obnoxious and shitty person. That's probably why his community is so ass.

and he's a pedo, transphobic, "anti woke", blatantly racist, pro-imperialism, anti-vietnam, supports US killing iraqi civilians etc.

I don't think he counts as leftist at all

Not to mention his presented political opinions are basically a profit-driven commodity if not an ongoing psy-op.

CW: Vaush being absolutely disgusting

I can't find the full clip of it, he goes on to use "no ethical consumption under capitalism" to make this insanely sweaty argument that CP cannot be immoral because imperialism exists.

Also, Vaush is a "leftist" about as much as nazis were "socialists".
