I still don't understand the Red Scare pod community

What exactly is the connection between mild-to-moderate economic leftism, hating porn, being obsessed with pop culture, and doing a small amount of noooooticing (but not too much)?

What's the overlap there?

Their politics (and general world-view) is basically blind contarianism and saying how smart they are. West bad, everything else good.

They aren't sheep, they can't be manipulated, they know how the world really works.

Sister subreddits: /r/stupidpol, /r/trueanon (they claim to dislike the latter, but they're barely distinguishable)

I don't even think they have enough conviction to think "west bad". For example they have had Steve Sailer and Bronze Age Pervert on.

Really they are just pure politics hipsters. If something is cool/controversial or otherwise lets them pretend that they are super smart and above it all unlike everyone else they will latch on to it.

He's talking about the redditors not the actual podcast.

I feel rspers have a peculiar brand of conformist "nonconformity" as a leftist reaction to insufferable wokeoids. At bottom they're leftists and the non-leftist politics they take up are to prove they're not bougie. You can say poor people are stupid but not because of genetics. You can use any curses allowed on a 2000s college campus, but not slurs. You can dislike the polyamorous obese redditors but don't be traditionalist. etc.

Then there's the jaded "look how little I care" demeanor, which ironically takes immense effort. After "indifference" comes their whinging essays about muh palestine. They write briefly because they're worried a longer form would reveal personality. They wow at hackneyed social critique put in neologisms. "Loser" and "pathetic" are their goto insults because while they feign nonconformity, it's a conformist's nonconformity. They are high verbal IQ bug-people, whereas redditors are the midwits.

They realize this and think that matters.

Yeah, well I get dirtbag leftism, just not sure where the porn hate and obsession with pop celebrities comes from. Is it really because there are a lot of biofoids posting on those subs? Knowing Reddit, seems unlikely but who knows.

Back when RSP had like only thousands of subscribers, it was mainly Brooklyn biofoids artposting and smoking. They either migrated to /r/rspod or flip-flopped to another deal like the eternal contrarians they are.

Check Kpop twitter for both porn hate and obsession with pop celebrities. I think the core founding group was dominated by biofoids, especially since Anna and Dasha are biofoids and the demographics of the sub changed but the culture maintained to some degree. I thinks it's part of the increasing foid skepticism toward hookup culture and the prevalence of porn in society.

A number of foid celebrities used to praise it before the trad cath turn.

I know that it's weird to say now but the pod used to be thought of as a form of feminism in line with Camille Paglia
