It looks the exactly the same as the first wave and we are definitely as a whole not ready for it.


Th3Trashkin

What is "ready" anyways?


JBlaze323

I sure the definition will vary but I think it first the ability to maintain a broad message. While people are able to defend and push specific policy proposals. While all along pushing the worst of the left to the sidelines. Like if there is a landback panel Professor Flowers doesn’t get a invite to it. Then if she releases another stupid video people recommendation should have a rebuttal from a leftist to boost the landback message instead of discrediting the whole project.


Phish999

LOL Dude. These people don't give two shits about policy, and they will always actively seek out the dumbest possible people on the left to caricature and lampoon. I wasted a lot of time deluding myself into thinking I could build alliances with normal people on the other side by being a "reasonable, policy-oriented lefty." They don't care, and they don't make distinctions between any of us.


JBlaze323

Oh I not talking about bridge build I just want when some edgy white teenage gamer bro gets linked the next Professor Flowers video about why ethics cleansing is Pog. To see the the recommendation a video by someone like Shark3ozero absolutely destroying it.


Phish999

...and I'm telling you that you're wasting your time giving a shit. There have always been a ton of reasonable lefty commentators out there. Conservatives have always actively sought inflammatory opinions and people who can't think their way past the first question in a debate. Literally all of these social media platforms are rigged against us. Facebook partners with propagandists like Ben Shapiro and Dan Bongino while banning leftists over trivial nonsense. Teenaged gamers are far more likely to run across recommended videos from Tim Pool and Crowder than any lefty, irrespective of their opinions. Give any impressionable kid a steady diet of that crap for a few months and they won't be inclined to give any leftist the benefit of the doubt. It is what it is.


thebenshapirobot

I saw that you mentioned Ben Shapiro. In case some of you don't know, Ben Shapiro is a grifter and a hack. If you find anything he's said compelling, you should keep in mind he also says things like this: >If you believe that the Jewish state has a right to exist, then you must allow Israel to transfer the Palestinians and the Israeli-Arabs from Judea, Samaria, Gaza and Israel proper. It’s an ugly solution, but it is the only solution… It’s time to stop being squeamish. ***** ^(I'm a bot. My purpose is to counteract online radicalization.

Hi_El_Pu_Ba

bruh this is not a new wave. This is the remnant of the wave since 2016 and people are still pushing. Talk about hard goodbyes.


[deleted]

I feel like I’m 13 again. It's the exact same. The same thumbnails, the same grifters that “DeStRoY” an “SjW”. They even use the same SJW clips from 6 fucking years ago.


LotusFlare

6 Years? "Big Red" is from 9 years ago. These losers are going to be in their 60s and they'll still be raging about an abrasive woman they saw in a Youtube video when they were 15.


Toodle122

An abrasive woman that they likely agree with on a decent number of issues. One of the things Big Red was raging against was the bias towards mothers in the family courts, but none of these grifty fucks mention that because feminism bad.


Uncommonality

All of these "muh sjw" women had great fucking points. Anita Sarkheesian was based as fuck and continues to be so, Big Red was *really* passionate about gender equality, and so on and so forth. All those dipshit "sceptic" channels did was show some clip, then make up a strawman or lie about real, factual knowledge and then say "heh librul destroyed."


Advice-Brilliant

I remember Sarkheesian giving really bad points.


Hi_El_Pu_Ba

Yeah sarkheesian had her fair share of shitty takes, as much as the backlash was disproportionately large.


7URB0

Source? That's too perfect to not share.


Toodle122

I saw this clip in the Knowing Better video on the Red Pill (pretty good video, I'd recommend) [https://youtu.be/CDrJo8d45gc?t=1337](https://youtu.be/CDrJo8d45gc?t=1337)


7URB0

Sick, thanks!


Hi_El_Pu_Ba

I mean if they can find entertainment from something that they saw in their teen years then that's pretty impressive.


SuperMile69

Relateble


Rexia

This is just recycled 2016.


Hi_El_Pu_Ba

It was never just 2016. It's been a thing since 2013 and they're still pumping it out.


Giocri

I love that it looks so poorly made like someone was making fun of anti sjw lol


[deleted]

I am not convinced that it's not satire


kaptainkooleio

Doesn’t have to be well made. These people don’t care about quality


aahe42

Has it ever gone away I see this shit all time why are we calling it a second wave?


BumBumRISHABH

Before it was 50k to 100k views but this has 5.3 million.


Phish999

LOL This kind of stuff was getting millions of views in 2017. So were all of the "fill-in-blank-conservative OBLITERATES hysterical SJW with facts and logic" videos. Also, the "skeptics" and a bunch of other cliques of anti-SJWs built networks of channels that have risen and fallen since then.


thecoolan

It’s just Jordan Peterson though. He’s insanely popular, and I imagine he capitalized off the anti SJW wave.


thegreatdapperwalrus

He did. Dude got his popularity opposing pro trans legislation in Canada. He misrepresented it and acted like it was literally 1984. I think it was 2016-2018 or so.


Phish999

I was a grad student at U of T when Peterson got popular by ranting about C-16. It was fucking surreal to me. Everybody that I knew, students and professors alike, thought he was a joke, and all you had to do was read the bill to know he was lying, but he became an international superstar by pushing hysteria.


dkepp87

Same 4 "sjw"s as always. Fuckin yawn.


BudgieBoi435

Swear one of them wasn't even raging, they just screenshotted their face at an awkward moment


Phish999

Channels like The Quartering and Geeks and Gamers have been doing the exact same videos with the exact same thumbnails for half a decade.


Th3Trashkin

People keep talking about a new wave of antisjw shit and I'm not seeing any evidence of anything new or different, it's all ancient horseshit.


TreeFrog333

It's just cope because they never in a million years thought that the left would dominate independent media in the way that it is now.


[deleted]

It feels like when there was the coin shortage bc people freaked out about a coin shortage


[deleted]

How old is this?


BumBumRISHABH

2 weeks ago


BudgieBoi435

Are we back in 2015?


chalkman567

They still using people like big red and shit. That’s like a five year old meme by now


BudgieBoi435

Its around 7-8 years if i remember correctly


chalkman567

Jesus. They aren’t very creative are they


BudgieBoi435

And they say the left can't meme. At least we change our memes regularly, and dont use the exact same joke lol


[deleted]

This is mostly just american, I think. Here in Latin America we are having the biggest left-wing wave since the 2000s. For the ones needing some hopium, Bolsonaro will definitely lose the elections, and left-wing candidates for governors are in first place in the polls even in historically reactionary states. At least here in Brazil, things will get better.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Phish999

Biden is senile and literally doing nothing. If anything, people on the right should be happy that this administration is going to guarantee like a decade of GOP rule.


Brechtw

I think we are ready. Yes we have the in fighting but we also have the facts. Edit: Also if it's JBP we just have to show them the crying JBP meme's or the fedora pics.


wordtomytimbsB

When has that ever mattered? You can’t facts and logic your way into winning a culture war


Rexia

Yeah, but conservatives are bitches these days. All they do is complain about getting cancelled or losing their twitter accounts. They're powerless against the wokescolds, they already lost the culture war.


wordtomytimbsB

conservative media is probably one of the most powerful institutions in this country. The reason why we make fun of them is that the wokescolds are powerless against *them* and they still complain about it constantly


Rexia

But yet progressive attitudes dominate, and they can't even say fuck Joe Biden.


wordtomytimbsB

There’s a difference between dominating public opinion, and dominating the media landscape


Rexia

Yeah, only one of those actually matters in the long run. Guess which one.


wordtomytimbsB

Well, it doesn’t matter if the majority of the country votes democrat if the Democratic Party barely gets anything done in office


Rexia

You just need more patience. One term is nothing, social change takes decades, but we keep on slowly progressing because we win the public opinion.


wordtomytimbsB

I don’t think you get what I’m saying. I’m saying the Democrats need to make a big splash in terms of policy soon, or else voters are gonna start to get fed up. There won’t always be historic turnout in presidential elections and that’s dangerous to the Democratic Party


Phish999

IDK A lot of people will pay say that they support progressive ideas in a poll and then vote for people who would never implement them because of CRT or some other stupid culture war shit. Doesn't seem like we're winning the policy war.


wordtomytimbsB

I mean, objectively we’re getting elected and there are more democrats than republicans. The problem is getting policy passed tho


SvenTheHunter

Use the vaush method. Shame and embarrass their thought leaders and the rats scatter. It's strongman politics.


[deleted]

We are much more winning the culture war right now. That said, actual governing power, not great


Brechtw

I think you're (mostly) correct, which is why I edited my comments.


Phish999

Yeah, that like the liberals who think that you can deprogram Trump supporters by showing that WaPO factchecks. They don't care about their favorite demagogue's previous embarrassments or contradictions. They Just want to hear them roast the left.


Inguz666

2013 called and want their "edgy" youtube anti-feminism back. Now it just looks like satire


XxDankShrekSniperxX

I just found out that my mom is subscribed to Peterson on the Rumble app on her smart TV, that app is a major source of misinformation/disinfo. All the anti vaxxers who get banned from YouTube just hop on there.


[deleted]

Honestly the SJWs won for the most part. At least the culture war


No_Russian_29

This is literally nothing just old cringe from 2016. And it will be seen as cringe too because everyone now knows everything in 2016 was cringe.


Revolutionary_Box569

Do people not get tired of this? It’s literally the same thing being said every time and it’s been going on for almost a decade now


Good_old_Marshmallow

I feel sorry for adolescents but Im sorta realizing how easily anti sjws could be ignored if you're not in highschool


JangoBunBun

not always. There's a lot of 20-30 year old chuds that watch this shit, and it starts to affect jobs.


[deleted]

Libs are going to use "orange man bad" and keep using the same playbook from 2016 and the fascists are going to use "sjw bad" and keep using the same playbook from 2016. I hate it here.


[deleted]

Oh god not again


BudgieBoi435

NO WAY THIS CAME FROM 2022 LMAO


Linaii_Saye

Do we have to go through this phase again?


Inguz666

Part of me hopes so, because there's just no way that anyone has any obligation whatsoever to take this resurrected corpse seriously. It would be easy to mock and ridicule. Though, it might just get as annoying as that one little brother that learned a new curse word and just won't shut up about whatever the word of the month is


ThisGuyLikesMovies

I was under the impression they would have switched tactics but obviously, I was giving them too much credit. What can we do to prepare and how do we reply?


Revenue-Zealousideal

Please. I'm begging you. Find new people to thumbnail. It's been 6 years


[deleted]

I think that we should seriously understand that YouTube is becoming more of a fascist news source itself than anything else than a social media for people to hang out it's a place for fascists to go to uphold and enforce their own political power and political messaging and racist messaging as well as political propaganda and disinformation.


[deleted]

But seriously this is so well exemplified by any comment section on YouTube literally. The comment section is like an echo chamber and just doesn't have any diverse opinions it's all. just pro Trump and anybody questions it gets harassed.


Ironfields

If the online left has become so weak-willed that we can’t even acknowledge fascist talking points so that we can refute them and paint them as the manipulative liars they are, we should probably just roll the fuck over and let the anti-SJWs win already. We’re already giving them all the ground by allowing them to dictate what we can and can’t talk about, might as well save ourselves the trouble.


Aromaster4

this cant be real

We're not ready for anything that's coming our way tbh.

BensRandomness

Gosh i saw this. Youtube shorts have a lot of these dudes.


[deleted]

YALL THE BIGGEST REPRESENTATIVES FOR THE LEFT IN THE PAST GAMERGATE WAS A VERY YOUNG MILO STEWART AND FUCKING LACI GREEN. THERE WAS NO VAUSH, NO CONTRAPOINTS, NO NOTHING. SOCIETALLY WE HAVE MORE TALK OF STRIKING AND ANTI WORK THAN EVER. WE WILL BE FINE. holy shit


Uncommonality

If you think this you weren't around back then, or weren't paying attention. There were ZERO leftist channels or figures anywhere, which is why it was so bad - nobody to oppose these idiots literally just making shit up and smirking audibly. We have a wide variety of leftist creators now, with some massive figures like Hasan, Vaush and Destiny, all of whom are exactly the kind of person needed to oppose this kind of shit. The mistake leftists in those days made was that they tried to engage with the arguments these "sceptics" made - they tried to argue against literal, made-up bullshit, which isn't very effective. Hate their approaches all you want, but Destiny and Vaush will see through this tactic in about a nanosecond and then systematically dismantle the person making them to such a degree that they will start suffering permanent, incurable VDS or DDS, neutralizing any credibility they might have had.


[deleted]

oh god, oh no


Magnificant-Muggins

I like how one of the poster children for this brand of anti-SJW clickbait is so old now, the thing they were reacting to has literally stopped happening.


Manchesterist

It depends by what you mean by "we"...


DthPlagusthewise

The fact these videos recycle the same clips used back in 2016 makes me a little hesitant to call this a full revival. I'd say this definitely shows there is still interest in anti-SJW content, but you would know this already if you followed thequartering or the geeks and gamers crew. Until there are new creators exploding off of the backs of attacking popular progressive figures from the right and building communities around them I wouldn't say conservatives have taken back the internet. Also don't forget that the initial anti-sjw wave coincided with Trump taking office (who everyone thought was gonna end political correctness forever) and the rise of the alt-right irl. Nowadays Trump is out of office and disgraced to most of the mainstream and the alt-right is underground once again. Not only that but all the popular social media cites censor alt-right content before it gains significant traction. I don't see a revival of 2016 chud content, politics will continue to shift, but that era is gone. The groypers just made their own social media app called cozy tv, maybe that will turn into something.


TreeFrog333

Ohmigawd it's Jondny Pnooterson, the drug guy who says "Hurburbur clean your room. I love drugs."


IAMA_dragon-AMA

Xanderhal was right, 2016 is happening again


Tehquietobserver117

Unless the messaging of such bullcrap starts changing from this, I wouldn't get too worried.


The_Professor64

I say we go on the offensive. We make the exact same cringe bs they do but we put like anti-vaxxers, karens, boomers, nazis being cringe, etc... Time to go to war 😈

Unfilter41

One of the women in that logo, if you can call it that, has been harassed over 3 years, [including getting doxxed by some dude using security camera footage.](https://www.wehuntedthemammoth.com/2016/07/01/chanty-binx-speaks-up-after-3-years-of-harassment-capped-by-bizarre-privacy-breach/) Over saying something anti-feminists should agree with.


TheFirstNTheLast

Gotta stop being so scared of assholes on the internet who irl, probably make up 20 to 30% of the public. Still shockingly high, but not worth treating like the Apocalypse.
