if it was comedy it would be too on the nose
Fuck BadEmpanda tbh. He’s not wrong in this one instance but he has some of the most incoherent and inane takes as a supposed leftist.
Not really he’s pretty consistent. He’s got some of the best takes on the left. Sometimes he misses but with so much spice that’s a given.
He is actively transphobic. He has truly bizarre takes on other commentators in the US lobbing insane takes while he sits in his cushy home making YouTube videos as if he is any different.
I am convinced he is an opp hell bent on destroying any left momentum in the US if he had a chance to. I am not an accelerationist and do not support those who are.
He made a few out-there tweets during the pinkwashing height of the Palestinian genocide and LGBT purity testing on resistance groups but he’s certainly not anti-trans that’s pretty clear from most of his content.
The fact that most US lefties will gladly accept an actual mass murderer like Graham Platner into their movement but keep yapping about a few tweets as if it’s worse than being a literal mass murderer really drive home proves his point.
He isn’t destroying “left momentum” he simply points out there is no left momentum in the US because all the supposed lefties are National Socialists who want treats for themselves and will drop victims of the empire at the drop of a hat when it’s profitable for them.
Very clearly you are going to defend this guy who has no desire to build anything and only wants to sit in his ivory tower and complain. BadEmpanda only exists because he benefits from the fruits of empire as he makes all his money from posting on western social media platforms with his western audience. Where is the principled stance? Or are we defending transphobic hypocrites now?
I have seen the content and the context. It doesn’t impress me. BadEmpanda is a joke of a commentator with no real substance to add. He just wants to complain about the west while profiting off of it with no desire to see any meaningful change or he would be offering actual practical and strategic suggestions. But does he? No.
Very clearly you are going to defend this guy who has no desire to build anything
No he doesn’t. He simply doesn’t support trying to do reform in National Socialism during a Holocaust.
Or are we defending transphobic hypocrites now?
You’re literally doing pinkwashing for genocide now by bringing up things completely irrelevant to the thread and doing purity testing for one of the fiercest anti-Zionist voices. I know you don’t apply this standard to literally anyone including mass murderer Graham Platner who you conveniently ignored.
Meanwhile you’re advocating for people like AOC which are literally sending weapons to support genocide. But somehow a bad tweet about trans people is where the line must be drawn… because that’s worse than literal genocide? Where is your consistency?
I recommend watching some more BadEmpanada videos and rethink how far gone you are. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9qXm9E9zEk
Ah me having issues with his language is pink washing now? Interesting. Hard pass on watching and of his videos. Not interested. I’ve seen enough over the years to know he has become a disappointment that is not worth my time.
Please point out the anti-trans language in the tweet. Also keep dodging Graham Platner and AOC.
No he doesn’t. He simply doesn’t support trying to do reform in National Socialism during a Holocaust.
He’s got some of the best takes on the left.
That’s some bullshit, tbh. I’ve never seen this shithead have a (good) take that hasn’t been said better by someone else. He’s had some real stinkers that have been pretty original, but his decent takes are pretty standard internet leftist fare, it seems to me

No Israel is a settler colony that has no right to exist. Much like Rhodesia.
