Seperate the content creator from their opinions unless it affects their work. That and if they do something criminal is the reason you should stop watching them .
I know a ton of content creators I watch who I either have points I disagree with or full on oppose on some issues but it doesn't bleed into their work and haven't done anything criminal so it's just whatever
Plus that's from Twitter pre Elon, post Elon it's just a train wreak that had fireworks that everyone enjoys watching the fire, pre Elon it was fucking Chernobyl! Anyone who did more than post self promotion was usually on the leftist side to some degree.
I did say content creators, not charities, governments, NGOs, banks, police forces, car manufacturers.....
The ones that at least have that divide of content and shit takes can at least come back off the cliff. Those where it bleeds in, well they're now puppets so that hand up their ass is gonna stop them thinking for themselves.
Not really. I only recognize this guy's name but don't know who he is so maybe he can be effectively boycotted into irrelevance. Other small fries may be vulnerable to it as well. However, the idea that meaningful change can come from boycotts like this is misguided. Our economy is much more centralized than people realize thanks to its financialization so you end up funding their crap when you pay taxes or buy toilet paper. Unless you are living in a shack like Uncle Ted, you are funding them, and good luck turning "live in a shack" into a mass movement.
Let go of that vestigial market liberalism, friend. It's a failed philosophy that will get you nowhere.
He's friends with Pewdiepie so in that circle of creators
I'm not so sure, anymore. Pewdiepie had a video recently where he mentioned people wanting him to do a collaboration and the reason he gave for no didn't match the way he sounded. The body language was weird, the tone, something about it was off.
An that's why we lose too if we engage in the same purity test, we isolate everyone else that COULD be an ally of convenience against the left and their endless march because 'I don't agree with them 100%'
If I did that, I'd have cut out family who fell for the vaccine, now, they listen to me even more for my opinion because I didn't pull the 'you're a fucking idiot' card when I disagreed with them.
The ones that falter and affects their work aren't going to be able to walk back from the cliff so they're done. The ones that say shit takes on twitter but they make content that doesn't go into their politics or is trying to be divisive are ones that are at least aware of another side so can be brought over.....so long as you haven't already burned them..
I will freely admit, I can befriend someone who is lightly involved with someone like antifa just to use them as a disposable asset to gain intel on their inner workings and plans
Just as much as I'd develop relationships with hard-core islamists if I could turn them against the left. I really have no loyalty to no one but the friends and family I care about who never betray my trust. And if they're fucked with you REALLY don't want to know what I am capable of considering..
it's not just about financially punishing them, there's literally nothing important enough from content creators that hate your very existence that you need to waste your time consuming their contents
Wait hate my existence? When did I say I'd watch them? If they're at that stage, they already have let it bled into their work, this is just a shit take on a platform that is essentially text screaming
Give me one example of a creator openly hostile to the other side that hasn't let it influence their work.
For a single topic, maybe. For a bunch of minor topics even. Most people are gonna have political disagreements at some level. But when it's major issues that are founded from fundamental disagreements, then it's a little harder to just go "well, we have a slight difference of opinion", because it's not a slight difference, it's a fundamental difference.
This doesn't change by ignoring the problem. Ignoring the problem is how we got here. Stop trying to play by the rules they never played by at any point.
I'll give an example since a lot seem to have come to the conclusion I watch and support everything unless they are criminals
I watch SFO and Shoeonhead's main channel (when she posts) still despite some major disagreements i have with some of their positions. Why? Because for SFO it allows me to refine my opinions knowing the mentality of opponents or those that just aren't as far on the conservative scale. He doesn't go outright calling me evil for the disagreements (though gets into play fights with chat a lot) and so is useful to not be stuck in one way of thinking
Shoe is similar but because she's more on the left is even more useful to understand opponents way of thinking. A big plus is her huge hatred of pedophiles, she's actually very useful finding pedos on the left like with the recent fashion company one as let's be honest, the right swore off the fashion industry LONG ago so it might have been missed if we only relied on right leaning creators.
Point is this, because of their differences yet they don't target their audiences or let it fully bleed into their work, they are useful assets to develop opinions. As soon as they pass a threshold of when it does become full on attacks then they are no longer useful as an asset.
Besides I've been more attacked by the right leaning content creators for my love of Anime than my political opinions by some of my slightly left leaning content creators. The right unfortunately despite having nowhere near the power of the left has probably wasted opportunities for more allies of convenience due to this purity test.

No, don't separate the creator from their opinions, because that means you're funding your enemy.
Still playing Microsoft games?
Microsoft was the only major tech company not to sign the declaration that "misogyny" was the internet's biggest issue.
Because as we know, there is only one issue in the world that can possibly exist. Only one, ever at any time.
But Gates still gets any money spent, though. And Gates is a Globohomo cuck

This is why we lose.
Develop self-discipline. Take principled stands in your personal life. Stop being a pussy.

You have NO fucking chance of boycotting him into irrelevance unless he either murders someone, comes out as a pedo or scams a bunch of people!
Ah, he is bigger than I thought then. That makes it even more futile.

It's foolish to think that you can copy the exact strategy of those in power when you are a powerless insurgent (metaphorical).
That and I know I can be ruthless

See, they are in the right, so they have every right to be upset at having to look at a heretic. But conservatives are in the wrong, so suck it up.
For all their pretense of sophistication, leftism boils out to the oft-mocked line from the Song of Roland: Pagans are wrong and Christians are right.
I mean if people could be insulted by anythng Grammer has done, I would have thought Money Plane would have been it over his politics lol
That's worse than this? Lol
