Early Access: Why Don't You Respond to Criticism?
Heya team! Here's the next Alt-Right Playbook. Assuming nobody catches some glaring error, this will go public Friday-ish, but, for now, it's for you and Nebula only!

GAH! This so much! Thank you for once again succinctly getting at a thing that has irked me for YEARS but I've not been able to articulate the why for. This is one of those questions I see and hear and can tell it's loaded and a trap and now I can direct folks to a very clear explanation of exactly how it functions as a trap.
Like, for EEL though
The outro song was great, nice choice
The simple framework given here is really useful. Excellent work.
I'm wondering: What happens when someone asks a reactionary right-wing figure "Why don't you respond to criticism?"
1) relishes the opportunity to turn this into an interminable debate 2) calls you a monster for even implying the criticism could be true 3) stonewalling (there is no criticism/I already responded to it/hey look over there!)
Great content as usual!! Out of curiosity, why isn't the last point "don't *answer* the question unless you have three yesses"? Is there something I'm missing?
I think this is aimed at other fans of leftist or progressive content creators, like us: don't fall for this, don't chime in.
A really good video for four eels in a trench coat. :) (Good video for a human too btw)
Love this so much
I don't know if it's glaring, but the title of the presentation at 4:30 says "TO QUICKY SUMMARIZE."
uhhhh... that was intentional...?
New ARP, fantastic! Can't wait to watch when I get home! :)
Watched twice, hits the nail on the head. I've seen this so often - also directed at other members of the audience in the style of "Don't you know what X has done and never addressed?", in the style of dividing people on the left from their community (as described in a previous video).
Really good and good to see a new entry in the series. One potential error is at 00:20, it seems like the "lot going on here" bit feels like it's delayed by about 4 seconds. Maybe it's intentional but it jumps out at me as out of step with the rhythm by which you tend to sync text gags to your narration.
I thought the transition where the text "Why don't you respond to criticism?" showed up as different types of comments on different UIs was pretty slick.
I'd assume you would make fantastic sushi, but I guess I've never had any of your cooking.
That was fun. Love the eels-in-a-trench-coat/Obama birther analogy!
A very good guide for upcoming leftist content creators, thank you as always Danskin
Awesome! Every addition to the series is a banger
