In this post, I saw a lot of people coming to Bad Empanada's defense, and felt like they may be uninformed about his actual positions of things, so I felt that this ought to be posted.
Schrodinger's bait
This is some V*ush 
shit, dude needs to stop drinking the irony poison.
"merely pretending" type shit
This is far from the first time he's said contradictory shit. Idk if he's irony poisoned or just changed his opinion based on what pisses people off the most.
His views on Ukraine are very clear if you watch his videos like the 90 minute one about how the scientific consensus on the Holodomor is that it wasn't a genocide, but since a lot of people in here get irrationally angry because of the smallest criticism of AES (while claiming to be "critically" supportive) and starts to cry fed they are a very easy target to troll. After this i am even less convinced that his Venezuela video was serious (which would be good because it was awful).

I don't buy this. He clearly fucks with people on Twitter but putting the effort into a whole video to just subtlety troll people is less believable. He still occasionally contradicts himself in his videos but significantly less often, I think what he says on camera is much closer to whatever his actual views are.
I think his actual views are somewhat informed by what pisses off the people he hates is the thing.
Sorry but if the video is a "joke" then he is doing a Vaush where he can pull a "just joking", this is pathetic, my man is lost in the irony swamp.
It's not irony, it's just engagement bait at this point. He's not even making a point it's just him trying to annoy people.
We need an anti streamer aktion emoji I can just post to save time whenever one of them has a bad take or turns out to be a pedophile (on a long enough timeline this is all of them)

counterpoint - who cares what this guy thinks
Whether or not it's extremely unclear jokes and layers of irony poison, the rhetoric is just pointless at this stage.
I was a big fan of BE in the past, but too much time on Twitter and adopting a 'streamer' personality has completely brainwormed him in recent years; It seems like he cares more about "winning" over other people on the internet instead of presenting any coherent thought. He's made some great videos in the past, but not even his fans seem to know what side he's taking on a given day anymore.
The further away the BadEmpanada posts are from his main channel, the worst his takes are
Idk why anybody is surprised it's not like their name is GOOD empanada
BadEmpada is like Mao in that he has some good takes and bad takes. He is unlike Mao in that Mao wasn't a youtube.
Personally I will say that I think we should go further and work towards a good empanada.
edit: Tone clarifier, I am doing a bit. If you actually believe I would believe this, then I am a teeny bit saddened. My actual opinions are much dumber.
BadEmpadanus is like Lysenko in that he has two good takes and the rest are all bad. He is unlike Lysenko in that Lysenko wasn't a thinly-veiled fascist who intentionally decided to help further colonize Argentina.
Personally I will say that I think we should go further and work towards fewer empanadas as they are not a significant part of a healthy diet.
Let's compromise and agree he is kinda like Kropotkin because they both have names that are kind of funny, and that you can have a good empanada once in a while, as a treat
BadEmpada is like Mao
He likes Nixon
"wwwwHAT'S UP YOUTUBE!!! YOU KNOW WHO IT IS, IT'S YA BOI ZAZA_DONG COMING BACK AT YOU WITH ANOTHER VIDEO! EVERY TUESDAY THURSDAY AND SATURDAY, YOU ALREADY KNOW WHAT IT IS. AND DON'T FORGET TO SMASH THAT LIKE BUTTON AND HIT SUBSCRIBE, TAKING THAT GREAT LEAP FORWARD TO GET ONE MAOLLION FOLLOWERS. ALRIGHT NOW THAT THE INTRO'S OVER LET'S GET IT!!! TODAY WE'RE PLAYING THE DICKSUCKING MOD IN MINECRAFT"
EVERY TUESDAY THURSDAY AND SATURDAY
revisionism. Mao would be doing daily vlogs alongside Mr. Beast style videos.
ZAZA_DONG
Maoillion
the daily vlogs go on his second channel, ZedongGrindset
Of course, I should've investigated before I spoke
BadEmpada is like Mao
Nooooo NOOOOO. I don't even know who this dork is but NOOOOOOOOO
What do you mean? They both had good opinions and bad opinions, I am very serious and also objectively correct.
This should be a bannable offense
I am very serious, the only difference really is that Mao isn't a youtube. Time will tell wether BadEmpada, the modern day philosopher that he is, will have any actual influence on this world and we were right to care about him or if he was just another way to get my brain to give me sweet dopamine by arguing with people online.
bad empanada
gotta love pro-imperialism ultras
Bad Empanada has good videos, but the worst takes on Twitter sometimes. I had to block him for my sanity.
Ukraine is such a fascinating litmus test because the correct option is "neither" or "I hope the side backed by the U.S suffers total failure in their stated or professed objectives" and it's not that hard a take to make, given the U.S is run by demonic ghouls.
No you see I'm pro Ukrainian people
And by that I mean shoving conscripted civilians into a meat grinder of a war thats been lost over a year ago so the US stock market can go up 3.5%.
I'm the morally correct one, you all are just evil RuZZia bots that want Putler to win so he can bring back muh Soviet empire

Having faith in streamers; this is the 18th type of liberalism.
if you ever wondered how "leftists" turn into rightwing neocons in their later lives, start here
Yeah I’m good on this dude. Plenty of principled commies to follow, not wasting any more of my time with Schrödinger’s liberal
at the end of the day, leftist youtubers are small business owners in the media industry, nothing beyond edutainment material will ever come from them
we shouldn't look to any of them as figures of political leadership or guidance....

...except, of course, his holiness st. bhagavan shree matt christman (SWT)
The fact you think people would come around who were defending his Maduro take if they see he is anti-Russia is just kind of laughable to me.
That is a more reasonable take by any metric lol
Bad Bad Empanada
