Also I really noticed how Vice has extremely distanced themselves from the right-center material that was kind of permeating within the vice ecosystem at the time.
I used to visit their website in the early to mid 2000s. I got their magazine for free at American Apparel in the mid-to-late 2000s.
It was cool when I first checked it out but then I started noticing things about Vice magazine that made me not fukk with it anymore.
One of the things I noticed about Vice looking at it was it never featured black music or black artists or even any black people at all.
It had a very ethnocentric white oriented vibe to it too as if their view of urban culture was coming from a sheltered Suburban venture capitalist background.
Also Vice and it's early days really was all about racism at humor from some snarky white perspective. It would push bulshyt articles about why white people should be able to use the n-word and call like poor people in New York City all sorts of things. It was a gentrification trash rag on a global scale.
But the thing about hipster racism is it's based in irony as if you don't take it seriously it's not real or it doesn't have a damaging effect.
Eventually McInnes and vice separated and the content of Vice got more left-wing and they started focusing on more investigative reporting. That was in 2008.
The damage is done now ever a lot of those hipsters that occupied cities like Williamsburg and Los Angeles started becoming right wing after supporting liberals like Obama but why?
A look into the proud boy subculture shows us it's all about Western chauvinism also known as white supremacy.
Why else would formally left-leaning liberal white men support of blatant racist neo-fascist Republican like Trump?
They believe they are under attack from PC culture people who want serious discussions about race and racism so-called social justice Warriors and the radical left.
That couldn't be far from the truth. In reality they're fascists that want everybody to bend to their wind and want to take America back to a time when white men were on top and everybody else knew their place.
