The dynamic of cumtown gets old quick, the chemistry between the 3 feels surreal when you realize Nick doesn't actually respect Adam or Stav and will talk over them, change the topic immediately when they bring something up and just straight up insult them daily.

i think its a jab at “facts and logic” meme since most were born of the polemicism of the Shapiro type (who was of course born from the polemicism of feminism and gamergate stuff). probably having the Humian aproach of facts being subject to human desire. of course that can go both ways, but still.

Mixture of satire and jokes. It's basically like the Stewart/Colbert books from the 2000s but updated for modern online politics.

They are rich assholes making fun of people they hate, bragging about how rich they are, and calling their fans pathetic pigs. That's the whole bit. It's a comedy show (that gets depressing sometimes when shit gets too real). It's not actually a guide to revolution, nor do they want people to think it is.
