Adam Something

Adam Something is a social-fascist, pseudo-leftist, and pan-europeanist youtuber. In spite of him sometimes espousing socialist economics and being critical of anarcho-capitalism and Elon Musk, he nonetheless is highly supportive of the neoliberal imperialist European Union and NATO. He rejects the right of self-determination for the people in Eastern Ukraine, openly promotes anti-communist propaganda, and supports imperialist neoliberal politicians in the EU.

Content

Adam Something creates content which is focused on disproving Elon Musk's pseudo-futurism, including his concepts on transportation and space exploration. Furthermore, he also creates videos which greatly criticize the hard-right, such as his videos titled "Anarcho-Capitalism in practice", or his videos on Ben Shapiro. After the Russo-Ukrainian conflict began in 2022, his content began to more shift towards spreading propaganda and misinformation about Russia.

Adam Something's social-fascism

Alignment with other pseudo-leftists

Adam Something, while sometimes refering to himself as a "leftist", he is for all intensive purposes a right-winger, specifically, a neoliberal. He encourages his viewers to support another pseudo-leftist pro-NATO youtuber, Vaush, whom he says "[..]gave me the inspiration originally to start my own channel", and he calls Vaush a "Debate Lord".

Pro-capitalist apologetica

He claims that "[...]power doesn't corrupt; it just shows you who you really are. In my opinion the same applies to wealth." and then lists four "choices" of how a capitalist can "use" their wealth, including the "the ethical capitalist". He then goes on to refer to the Russian bourgeoisie particularly as "the feudal overlord" and, in expected western-propagandist fashion, refers to the Russian capitalists (but not the western capitalists, who hold a similar degree of influence over politics) as "oligarchs".

Neoliberal servility

Adam Something has expressed support for neoliberal politcal figures, such as Emmanuel Macron. Furthermore, he refuses to support leftists due to them being "anti-globalisation" (anti-imperialist), and "anti-NATO". He later proclaims "Every leftist in their right mind should be pro-EU and pro-NATO".

While Adam Something has claimed that he both opposed US and Russian imperialism, he trivialized US imperialism, and greatly inflated Russian imperialism. He radically increased the amount of damage and war crimes that happend during the War in Ukraine, yet did not speak about how many times more people died in the illegal Statesian invasion of Iraq, among other imperialist wars done by the USA.

Anti-communist rhetoric

Adam Something, being a right-wing imperialist propaganist, has a tendency of randomly denigrating scientific socialists and socialist states In his videos and posts. He refers to the modern People's Republic of China as "totalitarian" and a "surveillance state tech-dystopia".

He commonly refers to anybody who is a marxist-leninist or otherwise support socialist states as a "tankie", regardless if they identify with that label or not. Furthermore, he appers to dislike pratically all forms of actually existing socialism, instead, relying on anti-communist propaganda. He says that "tankies" oppose US-imperialism, not because of the hundreds of coups and rigging that the USA did with democratic elections, not because of the unthinkable degree of exploitation Statesian capitalists have done to their workers, not because of the millions of dead men, women, and children that have lost their lives during American imperialist wars, but, according to him, because "tankies" merely think mindlessly that "US bad". Furthermore he thinks that both the 1956 Hungarian color revolution and the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine were both example of "Russian Imperialism" (Forgeting that the USSR and the Russian Federation are not the same nation, and that the Soviet reponse to the 1956 uprising was itself an act aganist western-imperialism).

Conclusion

Adam Something is an example of how well breadtube does in "deradicalizing" far-righters. Adam Something, in his early days a part of the alt-right, has seldom changed has ways; he is still a fascist, that is, a social-fascist. He is a prime example of ideological contradicion on youtube, claiming to be a "leftist", yet supporting right-wingers or even far-righters in the EU and Ukraine. He makes no historical analysis, nor educated conclusions that go beyond what the western propaganda has to say about Russia. He, along with other breadtubers, are perhaps the most striking examples of the pseudo-left within the modern internet. Like breadtube in general, the only helpful content Adam Something creates is that which undermines right-libertarianism and Elon Musk's propaganda, however, their is not much beyond that.
