From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki
BreadTube is a loose group of online content creators who make content explaining or giving editorial opinions from socialist, communist, and anarchist perspectives.[2][3][4] The term BreadTube comes from Peter Kropotkin's The Conquest of Bread,[1][5][6][7] a book explaining how to achieve Anarcho-communism and how an Anarcho-communist society would function. BreadTube creators generally post videos on YouTube which are then discussed on other platforms like Reddit.[8]
Prominent breadtubers
- Natalie Wynn, also known as ContraPoints, uses philosophy, sociology, and personal experience to explain left-wing ideas and to criticize common conservative, classical liberal, alt-right and fascist talking points.[9][10][11] Her videos often have a combative but humorous tone, containing dark and surreal humor, sarcasm and sexual themes.[9] Wynn often illustrates concepts by playing different characters who engage in debate.[12] The videos have been noted for showcasing Wynn's production choices such as complicated lighting, elaborate costumes, and aesthetics.[13]
- Philosophy Tube began in 2013, with Oliver Thorn deciding to teach philosophy on YouTube for free following the 2012 increase in British tuition fees. In 2018, he changed the style of the channel to be more theatrical, utilising studio sets, costuming and makeup. His videos discuss philosophy through a left-wing perspective often informed by contemporary politics. His channel has been met with positive critical reception and garnered over half a million subscribers. His most-viewed production, with ~1.5 million views as of July 2, 2020, is a video essay on Anti-fascism explaining the philosophy of violent Anti-fascist action and defending its morality.[14]
- Hbomberguy produces video essays on a variety of topics such as film, television, and video games, often combining them with arguments from left-wing political and economic positions.[15][16][17] He also creates videos aimed at debunking conspiracy theories and responding to alt-right and antifeminist arguments.[18] He is most famous for a live streaming event where he beat the 1999 video game Donkey Kong 64 to support the trans charity Mermaids after Irish comedy writer Graham Linehan criticized the British National Lottery for funding it.[19] The event featured many notable guests, including U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez; whistleblower Chelsea Manning; actress Mara Wilson; journalists Paris Lees and Owen Jones; Adam Ruins Everything creator Adam Conover; author Chuck Tingle; Matt Christman and Virgil Texas of the Chapo Trap House podcast; Donkey Kong 64 composer Grant Kirkhope; game designers Rebecca Heineman, Josh Sawyer, John Romero and Scott Benson; YouTubers and breadtubers Contrapoints, Lindsay Ellis, Philosophy Tube and Jim Sterling; as well as the CEO of Mermaids, Susie Green.[20][21][22] The stream raised 340,000 United States dollars[23] or 265,000 Pound sterling.[24]
