collective name for a bunch of faux lefties who preach socialism, communism, marxism etc on social media but then shepherd their followers into voting for the establishment parties they are supposed to oppose.

BreadTube (noun): A group of online content creators who produce videos about socialist politics, economics, and bread recipes. The term comes from the idea that these creators are producing content that is as essential to life as bread itself. BreadTubers are known for their love of puns, their disdain for capitalism, and their tendency to dress up like bread loaves in their videos. They often use elaborate metaphors involving bread and baking to explain complex political concepts, making their content accessible to even the most gluten-intolerant viewers. If you're looking to learn about Marxism and sourdough, BreadTube is the place to be.
Clarence: Say Arthur, have you have you ever heard of BreadTube? I keep hearing the young folks talking about it.
Arthur: Yes I have, Clarence. BreadTube is a group of online socialist content creators who produce videos about politics and bread recipes. Their videos are as essential to life as bread itself, or so they say.
Clarence: Hmm, I'm not sure I quite understand. What does socialism have to do with bread?
Arthur: Well, according to BreadTubers, the workers who produce bread should have control over the means of production. They argue that bread should be produced for the benefit of all, not just for the profit of a few. In other words, they want to seize the means of dough production.
Clarence: Seize the means of dough production? Ha! That's a good one. I don't think I'll be taking bread-making advice from a bunch of communists anytime soon.

A leftist movement that was propped up by YouTube and Governmental organizations to defend YouTube’s increasingly authoritarian rules and restrictions. All BreadTubers, despite pretending to be edgy, defend the current Democrat administration in the United States despite being completely against their supposed anarchist and communist beliefs and most BreadTubers ironically enough commit bourgeoisie actions like spending thousands of dollars on fancy costumes and drug usage. The worst part about Breadtube though is it’s fanbase, who are completely rabid and will defend anything their Breadtube idols say, even if it’s completely 100% wrong.
Robert: Hi Daniel what are you watching?
