Does this need two threads. I feel a merge coming.

Does it need one?

spelling is overrated
These are clearly different threads. This one is Breadtube and anarchist videos, whilst the other one is anarchist videos (though some Breadtube videos are contained in it).Why are you starting a new thread when you asked for the other one to be deleted?
Pay attention

Arsed
Where do I put anarchist videos now, in the anarchist video thread or the anarchist video thread
nogojones
spelling is overrated
If it's only anarchist videos, I think it's best to start a new thread to avoid confusion
It was suggested to me that I create a new thread so I did. It was also suggested to me that we let the old thread die.

Seeing lots of colour photos of Lenin to mark the 150th anniversary of his birth. Did anyone know he was ginger (or strawberry blonde/whatever the PC term is these days)?

Proper break this time
And where does the socialist bread go?
In the bin. Overcooked, that.
Is this a thread for videos which are both anarchist and breadtube or is it a thread for videos that are either breadtube or anarchist?
Given that anarchist videos are breadtube by default in the first instance "breadtube" is redundant and in the second instance "anarchist" is redundant.
I feel this thread needs a title change.

Today is both Lenin and Kant's Birthday.
This of course raises the question: who's better, Lenin or Kant?

Maybe we should have one thread for bread videos and another for the antichrist videos.

caput mortuum
we could of done without Lenin.
It's a thread for what the title says it's for- anarchist videos and breadtube vids. Incidentally you are wrong. Not all anarchist youtubers are part of breadtube and not all breadtubers are anarchists. Breadtubers are only those who identify as being part of breadtube (for example, Red and Black TV is anarchist but not technically a part of breadtube). Therefore, I don't see anything wrong with the title here.
OK didn't realise breadtube was a particular community. But just to clarify - you are looking for videos which are either anarchist or breadtube.
Does anybody have a list of breadtubers? Frankly I don't care either way whether somebody is associated with a particular online community.
Or whether or not they are anarchist for that matter.

ContraPoints[edit]
See the main article on this topic: ContraPoints
Hosted by Natalie Wynn, a socialist and feminist trans woman with an academic background who discusses a variety of socio-political topics with an emphasis on gender and sexuality. Her videos are known for their combination of dark, theatrical humor, flamboyant costumes, and a surreal atmosphere. Her content has moved toward personal stories about the effects of modern society from a trans perspective.[citation needed]
Hbomberguy[edit]
See the main article on this topic: Hbomberguy
Harris Brewis, better known as Hbomberguy or Harris Bomberguy (not to be confused with Bomber Harris), is a British socialist gamer who produces video essays on popular media[3][4] and "measured responses" aimed to debunk conspiracy theories[5][6] and reactionary talking points.[7][8]
He became known to a more mainstream audience in January 2019 for livestreaming a 57-hour attempt to complete the video game Donkey Kong 64 for charity, which raised approximately $340,000 for the UK trans children support group Mermaids. The stream featured special guests such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Chelsea Manning, John Romero
, Chuck Tingle
, and Mara Wilson
, as well as fellow Internet celebrities Natalie Wynn (ContraPoints), Lindsay Ellis, Jim Sterling
, Riley J. Dennis, Adam Conover (Adam Ruins Everything), Olly Thorn (Philosophy Tube), Shaun, Dan Arrows (Three Arrows), Virgil Texas & Matt Christman (Chapo Trap House), Jenny Nicholson, and Lewis Lovhaug (Linkara).[citation needed]
Lindsay Ellis[edit]
Lindsay Ellis
is a feminist media critic formerly known as the Nostalgia Chick (2008-2015), the female counterpart to Doug Walker's Nostalgia Critic
. After leaving the Channel Awesome
hellhole for good in 2015, she started producing surprisingly thoughtful and deeply researched, but still humorous, film-criticism essays (including a Hugo Award
-nominated, three-part series on the Hobbit film trilogy).[9] Like fellow YouTube pop culture critics/video essayists Kyle Kallgren and Jenny Nicholson, her content isn't overtly political, but she's friends with ContraPoints and Hbomberguy.[citation needed]
NonCompete[edit]
See the main article on this topic: NonCompete
Hosted by Emerican Johnson, a self-identified intersectionalist anarcho-communist,[10] who focuses on political re-education and promoting fellow BreadTubers. Johnson, a former right-wing entrepeneur, became disillusioned with capitalism and moved to Vietnam.[11]
Peter Coffin[edit]
Peter Coffin is an agender (he/him/all pronouns) anarchist, satirist, and social critic from Michigan[citation needed], creator of "Very Important Documentaries"[12] (political infotainment), "Many Peters"[13] (Coffin's take on current topics), and "Adversaries"[14] (critiques of advertisement).
Philosophy Tube[edit]
See the main article on this topic: Philosophy Tube
Hosted by British philosopher and Justin Trudeau look-alike, Oliver "Olly" Thorn. Philosophy Tube was created in 2013 as an educational channel about, well, philosophy, with Olly using a standard "talking head" format, a simple webcam, and natural lighting. His intention was to give away his MA in Philosophy to the people for free after the Tory government in the UK tripled university tuition fees. His videos began as miniature lectures, but as his channel became more focused on social issues and political philosophy, he began experimenting with making more longform video essays, with higher production values, comedic sketches and interludes similar to ContraPoints's (complete with sexy costumes and bisexual lighting
), which isn't surprising considering that Olly is also a professional actor.[15]
Secular Talk[edit]
See the main article on this topic: Kyle Kulinski
A talk show hosted by Kyle Kulinski, an atheist, shill for Big Seltzer,[16] and a progressive Democrat (he is a co-founder of Justice Democrats), even though he describes himself as a social democrat/left libertarian. Kulinski is critical of Israel and American imperialism, but as TYT-influenced liberals often do, he has a US-centric view of the left-right spectrum (i. e., "socialism is when the government does stuff") and dislikes SJW-types.[citation needed]
Shaun[edit]
See the main article on this topic: Shaun
Shaun was initially a "let's play" channel run by two old school friends, Shaun and Jen, but after 2016 Shaun began making solo videos debunking alt-right bullshit in a calm, British way (Jen has nothing to do with Shaun's political videos and only appears on S&J's new gaming channel).[citation needed]
Thought Slime[edit]
Thought Slime, is a sweaty,[17] non-binary (prefers he/him pronouns),[18] Canadian former stand-up comedian turned anarcho-communist and GarfieldEats aficionado.[19] His earlier content (before he decided to reveal his face) featured "King Cuck", an animated avatar resembling Timmy Turner from The Fairly OddParents
. He makes goofy, entergaging (entertaining and engaging) videos on anarchist theory,[20][21] mental health,[22] anti-capitalism,[23] and anti-fascism.[24] And let's plays.[25] Oh, and make up tutorials.[26] He is a member of the Industrial Workers of the World.[27]
Three Arrows[edit]
See the main article on this topic: Three Arrows
Hosted by Dan Arrows, a German social democrat who creates videos debunking bad history,[28] with a focus on debunking Holocaust denialism and other falsehoods and myths related to Nazi Germany,[29] European history,[30] and fascism.
Vaush[edit]
See the main article on this topic: Vaush
Vaush is an anarcho-syndicalist of the "dirtbag left" variety who debunks reactionary content[31][32] and isn't afraid to debate fascists and DESTROY them with facts and logic.[33] He is somewhat edgier than most of BreadTube, which often gets him in drama with other leftists.[citation needed]
Some More News[edit]
Some More News is a Youtube channel run by Cody Johnston and Katy Stoll and hosted by Johnston. The channel is updated bi-weekly with a video that focuses on the largest news story of the week.[34]

Hypothetical Wanker
Yeah, that surprised me when I, er, "met" him.
OK for Breadtube sceptics. Here's my favourite Contrapoints video. It's not her most popular and has indeed caused some controversy. This is Natalie early in her transition to a woman. It marks a transition away from her anti-fascist/anti-alt right/anti-capitalist content towards trans issues - which is a shame in itself. Here she sets up a dialogue with two sides of herself over ideology (identity theory versus performative theory) as well as over the person she is becoming. There is nothing didactic about this video. It leans one way but ends with uncertainty. It is a small work of art and it asks uncomfortable questions I had never even conceived of. I've watched it many times.
