Hello /b/,
It's time for another tik tok thread. In general, I recommend you avoid this app because it is very addictive. Because of this, I instead bring you the content, so you don't have to go there for it.
This time, I'll try to keep it shorter, and I offer you this handy guide.
"Left" TikTok has a few creators, and it's hard to tell which ones are good and which ones are not good. Proper leftists get banned all the time on the app, so just something to keep in mind.
These are actually good leftists™, /leftypol/ approved, cool people, consistently good takes, or generally good content. This is obviously non-exhaustive.
Eddie Smith, I will never get tired of supporting this man. He has awesomely well put together tiny videos that are just chock full of great propaganda. He also has a youtube channel, a multi-author blog, and a podcast. This guy is the titan of left tiktok, the most popular figure, and also "a tankie". Radlibs can't help but seethe and cope. If twitch or youtube had this power dynamic, "breadtube" wouldn't even be a thing. There'd be left youtube/twitch, with several tankie/non-trash anarchists, and the radlib scum that seethe at their existence.
https://www.tiktok.com/@eddieligersmithThis guy speaks about arabic shit but also leftism in general. Some of the takes are a tiny bit idpol (it's impossible not to when speaking about ethnic emancipation tbh), but besides that, his other takes are good and properly marxist.
https://www.tiktok.com/@benjaminh6535This guy I recently discovered. I am very suspicious of people who have pan-african flags (I think that's what it is?) but most of his takes are good. Good content all around.
https://www.tiktok.com/@marcusmoore1231An infrequent poster, but his videos are more wider left topics, as well as American culture in general. Good shit.
https://www.tiktok.com/@classypoliticsThis guy might as well be a leftypoler. They make content mostly about China and the insane propaganda campaign in the US.
https://www.tiktok.com/@deng.enjoyerThis guy is not a "hard" leftist as far as I know. I think he's an american born chinese, idk. Point is, he documents and debunks uyghur propaganda. It's great because they are short videos and has extensive research. Great shit.
https://www.tiktok.com/@fyfnews81This guy also might as well be a leftypoler. He's a standard ML who is surprisingly well read, and even more surprising given his age. Great takes 10/10.
https://www.tiktok.com/@redguard8This account has great videos, mostly about the Anthropocene and how we're absolutely fucked. The videos are well made, pretty funny, I recently discovered this page and I am enjoying all of the videos I've seen so far.
https://www.tiktok.com/@doomertokThis guy is just plain cool. An ML that doesn't give a fuck. He has a small twitch stream too:
https://m.twitch.tv/andy6eggs He makes fun of right wingers on tik tok. I think he'd like leftypol, not sure if he would ever frequent the site though.
https://www.tiktok.com/@andy75876This guy is a proper marxist too, with awesome takes. His stunningly good looks and very fit bod, and his great sense of style just make his videos much more enjoyable.
https://www.tiktok.com/@isaacescA "history" channel. She's a hard ML and calls out libs on the app with absolutely no chill. Calls "my parents were oppressed" commenters offspring of fascists, she goes 100% hard and doesn't give a fuck. I saw some people mentioning her on the /itg/ thread, so I guess she's known from other places? I know she has a podcast too. Great stuff, I learn random tidbits of history from people being absolutely blown off the face of the Earth lmao.
https://www.tiktok.com/@historic_lyCool guy that makes silly videos and makes fun of right wingers. I find his videos funny. Chill dude in general.
https://www.tiktok.com/@john_guaidoThis guy makes incredible videos of "Cool gamer facts" that are bait and switch and are about some crime that the US has done. Incredible propaganda.
https://www.tiktok.com/@sup_jerThere are more, honorable mention to yellow_parenti that posts parenti clips on the regular, there's also smaller/newer accounts that have few videos, and the retards that upload content but also simp for infracel, and others.
Huge honorable mention to this page. It's mostly about Australian politics.
Unfortunately, I think she's also been a victim of the rabid anti-leftism of the app. She came out of nowhere recently and was putting out videos frequently that were ungodly based. I think she got cancelled or some shit for something about China, she was probably debunking anti-China stuff and the pressure became too much. IDK, she deleted most of her videos.
https://www.tiktok.com/@bogancommunismSuch a shame, I hope she comes back.
Pages to be aware of:
This guy has many good takes, and has good critiques of the left, but he also has dog shit takes and you should beware of this guy. I think he's blinded by his arrogance, and by his inability to cope with being in an app that is hostile to leftists.
https://www.tiktok.com/@blackblocpoliticsHe also has another account "how to communism" or some shit.
I hate this person with a passion. He's one of those "listen to PoC voices" but also dismisses actual revolutionaries because they are "authoritarian". And that's just one part. He has some relatively informed takes that are so god damn shit, you have to put on a hazmat suit to watch them safely. In general I think they represent the mental rot of americanism and the difficulty of overcoming it. I get the feeling they were somehow consumed and mentally afflicted by american consoomer culture, but I couldn't back this idea up by anything. In general, for you mental health, avoid this creator.
