lol yeah, the irony of scolding Hasan for being friends with Frogan, when Ethan defends literal trump supporting transphobes.
Steiny, Bradly martin, Bryce hall etc.. "they're good guys, its okay." being chummy with people that are supporting a literal traitor while putting Hasan on blast.
This is a really good point that I hadn’t considered before, thanks.
I’m a huge long time fan but it rubbed me the wrong way when Ethan and Hila were talking about befriending the Trump hat guy at poker the other day.. felt very “well he was nice to ME”.
Ethan’s friendship with the alpha bros is to try change some of their misinformed views, because he thinks deep down they’re good guys on the wrong side of the coin. I don’t see anything wrong with that?
There’s nothing wrong with wanting to challenge and change the opinions of people that are their core values may be good people. I believe in rehabilitation, it seems a lot of this sub just care about cancelling and locking people up. Do you have these same ideals for criminals? I hope not, cause if you do don’t call yourself lefties🤷♀️
What did Steiny or Bradley do? Steiny joined within the last few years and Bradley wasn’t a part of the scams. Do you have this same attitude towards Tana Mongeau?
That scam involved Kyle Steve and Jesse. Reasonably, I’m not saying that Steiny wouldn’t have benefited from that, but in the details showed it was those main 3.
Think about their audience though, about the amount of views they get, and the impressionable central to right leaning people. Wouldn’t you prefer a left wing person to at least add to their conversation and challenge their views than them just continuing along the path of hateful rhetoric? Like Ethan shitting on Sneako. Maybe their audience hasn’t seen the other side, maybe they view Sneako differently, maybe they might question a bit more the next shit take from Andrew Tate. I have hope for this, and you can down vote me all you want but I stand by this.
Who tf are the racist bigots out of the people Ethan has been talking to?? Because I agree if they were racist or downright sexist then yeah don’t bother, like with Sneako don’t bother, but the other guys have shown no history of that.
Its just a shame he seems to throw away relationships with people that are actually good people at a normal level and only goes for friendships with people he thinks might be good guys somewhere deep down (half of who probably actually aren't)
What is his basis for thinking they're good guys? Because they're nice to him: a wealthy white man with social capital? He continues to platform them instead of 'changing their misinformed views' in private, away from the people who their views hurt.
The point is to changed their views in public for their audience to listen. That’s how you make an impact. Otherwise we’ll just always be right or left, I believe in mature, nuanced, productive discussion. Have you not dealt with people in real life spouting Andrew Tate rhetoric? I have, it’s disturbing. So yeah, I am all for someone like Ethan challenging that audience and see what those guys really are.
And how is that going for him? Considering Bryce Hall just spoke at a Trump convention and has been threatening another Tiktoker questioning his views.
Yeah I don’t think Bryce Hall is an example of who I am talking about lmao, they were just at the same poker table. I was talking about people such as Bradley Martin 😂
I’m sorry but politically stupid and ignorant people are much better than “educated” people who literally defend the person that caused 9/11. Are you brain dead???
