I think he openly admits that he's not. He's just charasmatic and good at thinking on his feet.

His work also represents the manner in which new forms of media have degraded the ability of debate to function as a meaningful form of discourse.

>just let me drone on for 4 minutes before I show you the 30 second clip
There are a few right wing youtube channels I am aware of that are like this too, but they all have boomer audiences. Why do young leftists consume videos like this? Even my brother watches Pakman. It doesn't make sense to me.

Not bait, but the only leftist commentators I like are Zizek (though he is cowardly for not addressing Dugin) and Sam Seder. Everyone else has something annoying about them.

Pakman:
>5 minute clickbait commentary on a 30 second boring clip
Destiny:
>some debates are alright, but 99% of his videos are Twitch Philosopher circlejerk tier with people who have overinflated egos
Secular Talk / Kyle Kulinski:
>fake actor, is not leftist, lies, exists solely to milk viewer revenue without having real opinions, people like this on the left, right and center should have something really bad happen to them
Chapo
>liberals who don't know what liberalism and socialism are, failed comedians, critique consumerism while being hyperconsumerist, pretend to care about issues like capitalism and foreign intervention, yet shoot these issues in the foot because "DUDE Tulsi Gabbard is secretly anti-immigration"
Noam Chomsky:
>crypto-Zionist. he will occasionally say something meaningful (defending Hamas, free speech, etc.) but if you track his views over time you notice he does not genuinely defend Hamas, he is pro-intervention, anti-free speech, etc.
Hasan Piker
>advocates violence and just isn't smart enough to warrant being a public figure.
I don't watch TYT so I can't speak for them, but from what I've seen Cenk is an honest actor.
