        Hasan Piker got that NYT write-up. Peter Coffin says it’s an example of how people like him aren’t a challenge to power and segues that into a criticism of Breadtube (mostly stating how neoliberalism’s co-opting it slowly), which has been his thing to criticize for the past month or so at least (I don’t follow him much). He and his crew make a blend of accurate and inaccurate (and usually pretentious) observations about how the left should be, how it should go beyond Breadtube, etc. Twitter people refuse to be normal and discussion breaks down into people arguing over tiny topics once the main topic’s been lost in the haze of Twitter reposts and responses. Literally none of it’s more useful or intelligent than stuff that’s been said on Chapo.
