Vaushites are pedophiles and white nationalists, so dipping their toes into neo-nazism isn’t surprising, they’re 4channers who were alienated by the Trump phenomenon, so they latched on to “leftist” aesthetics to distinguish themselves from other chuds
Vaushites are defined by a suburban “middle-class” malaise, so anti-communist neurosis, racism, establishment and militarized psychopathic mindsets are common
I go there semi frequently and I’ve never seen anything particularly bad. I know Brace can be a bit of an edgelord sometimes but it’s not like they’re the old Cumtown sub.
What I find low-key hilarious is that Brace is very clearly undiagnosed ADHD, or at least he’s not open about being diagnosed ADHD, and yet he loves to sneer at people who are neurodivergent.
Bruh. You are neurodivergent af. Internalised ableism really hits different.
(I know, I know… it’s not my business to go armchair diagnosing people based on their media presence and all of that but I’m breaking policy here because once you’ve heard all about Brace’s quirks and personality traits it paints a very clear picture of what’s going on with him.)
Yeah it would explain a lot. I wish someone had told me “I think you might have ADHD” when I was younger. I was a grown ass man going around thinking “I am completely neuroptypical”, ignoring all the signs being glaringly obvious, and making fun of “spergs”, who I definitely totally didn’t understand (most of my friends at any given time).
Ironically it was a coworker who had been diagnosed in his 30s and had since experienced his life drastically improving, who approached me. He told me I should get tested, but I was extremely skeptical. He then proceeded to nail me to the fucking wall by listing all the strange behaviors he’d observed, including shit I was shit doing while he was talking to me
In hindsight, it was extremely obvious. But it’s so easy to chalk up to personal quirks and the default assumption is neuroptypical. Especially if you’re over a certain age or part of an underserved group who didn’t have access to mental health services.

The worst bit of this is when you’re diagnosed at 30+, you ask your parents if they saw the signs or if you were a “good kid” and they’re like “oh yeah you were hyperactive as shit lmao”

Holy shit, that’s a bit rough.
I’m late diagnosed autistic and ADHD, and whenever I have someone around me realise that they’re neurodivergent I always insist that they be gentle with the people around them who are (suddenly) glaringly obviously neurodivergent themselves.
When I’m around undiagnosed neurodivergent people it just so happens that I often share reflections on my own realisations or my own behaviours which are relevant to what’s going on for that undiagnosed ND person and they will either say something like “Shit, I do that too…” or they will be silently thinking it in their heads. Obviously I let them work through it on their own time but, to be honest with you, sometimes it takes a lot of effort not to lock eyes with them while deliberately nodding my head up and down slowly.
You have to go easy on people because being late-diagnosed can really feel like the rug is being pulled from under you.
Brace is very clearly on the spectrum & I’m saying this as someone who is also AuDHD. It’s part of what makes him so fucking powerful & intense. His special interests are socialism & conspiracy theories.

Fuck em
LeftyPol: not even once.
without checking i’m pretty sure leftypol hate vaush. they’re basically us but more ableist
very accurate description of both leftypol and trueanon subreddit, and I lurk regularly in both. Cool people, just need to clean up their acts a bit
Its not like Trueanon itself is particularly great on that front. But if we can be more left wing then our podcast so can they.

And guns, don’t forget guns
I haven’t checked either. It was just an assumption of mine.
