Did everyone notice how this election wiped out all the previous leaders and now we're faced with being introduced to a new crowd of political leaders.

Elizabeth May with the Green Party is the only one still standing.

I mean, the pipeline could only be as old as the internet, which rules out most of the history of Conservatism, and there definitely is a left-wing equivalent. It's just proven less appealing.

I see that you’re misinformed: that pipeline has tracks back to John Romulus Brinkley who inspired the likes of Rush Limbaugh, who you should recognize.

What is your source on a left wing pipeline of the same ilk? I’d love to know your sources.

What would you call all the people recruited into the far-left by Chapo Trap House?

[-] Trakata@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 days ago

You mean the dirtbag left movement? Sure, that’s a good start for an entry point into the alt-left funnel, totally understandable.

Where’s the rest of the pipeline?

[-] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 days ago

Depends, which kind of leftist are we talking about?

[-] Trakata@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 days ago

Scope was to identify the alt-left pipeline, you’ve provided one, I guess literally any other groups that are tied directly to CTH or the dirtbag left working in coordination would suffice.

Hexbear (or Lemmygrad? One of them) was an outgrowth of Chapo, if the kind that thinks North Korea is Wakanda counts. I'm less clear on the trajectory future anarchists take.
