One of the reasons TRS began a downtrend in 2020 when by all means they should have risen was because they ignored people’s actual material issues in favor of another podcast about the Holocaust (which people in our thing don’t really care about one way or the other, honestly). People going through the worst year of their life don’t want to be told their concerns aren’t valid. There were issues with the vaccine. COVID measures did suck. The country was burning and it was pretty clear the election was stolen, and people had simply had it with the “you’re low-IQ stop paying attention to your small business and listen to podcast about blue walls.”
If TRS hadn’t been so misanthropic and so hermit-like in their concerns, they could’ve been getting six figure viewers on their livestreams and talked about in mainstream conservative circles.
And if people say Nick Fuentes sold out to get where he is, they should listen to a single one of his streams. He is clearly still an alt-right figure in terms of his beliefs, plus Catholicism.
Talking about how great Hamas is and about ovens not being connected to buildings, did not in fact resonate with Americans as much as talking about their real issues. One person managed to tap into the deep existential anxiety people felt that year, and the other managed to distance themselves from it despite being nominally dissidents.
