It is very common for breadtubers to create content which is in the format of a video essay, which often includes long diatribes on the breadtuber's view on certain topics, mostly political, historical, or social events, trends, and ideas. In other cases, breadtubers will have their primary content be articulated by means of lengthy live-streams, usually on twitch. Breadtubers also often engage in political-focused debates with other content creators, which often include people with massive ideological differences. Because many breadtubers host long video-streams, and commonly put themselves into a paternalistic stance in their content, it is common for the viewers of breadtubers to develop parasocial (one-sided) relationships with the content-creator. | |||

Breadtube is a loose grouping of center-left, or in many cases, pseudo-left internet creators, making content largely on youtube, as well as on reddit and twitch. The primary motive of breadtuber content is often to "deradicalize" people, which typically includes far-righters, however, they almost always fail to transcend liberalism or social democracy, and are often supportive of capitalist governments and institutions, such as the EU, NATO, and the United States of America. Furthermore, many of them are anti-communist or otherwise aganist left-wing and socialist ideas, commonly using anti-communist propaganda.[1]
Content
It is very common for breadtubers to create content which is in the format of a video essay, which often includes long diatribes on the breadtuber's view on certain topics, mostly political, historical, or social events, trends, and ideas. In other cases, breadtubers will have their primary content be articulated by means of lengthy live-streams, usually on twitch. Breadtubers also often engage in political-focused debates with other content creators, which often include people with massive ideological differences. Because many breadtubers host long video-streams, and commonly put themselves into a paternalistic stance in their content, it is common for the viewers of breadtubers to develop parasocial (one-sided) relationships with the content-creator.
