    Contrapoints got me on the right track, but I could also imagine Vaush and his edginess being a good foot in the door for some.

      That’s how it worked for me.

      When I started college, I thought Steven Crowder was a smart guy (only because I was a complete idiot back then.) I would watch his debates and think he was so clever debating unprepared college students. Which led to debates with Vaush and Destiny in them. Which then led into deeper breadtube.

      Now I’m more leftist than Destiny or Vaush from watching Noah Samson and the like. Noah is my favorite breadtuber right now.

        Absolutely. I don’t watch her very much anymore, but if nothing else she was a big contributing factor to getting me solidly left.
