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.
