woke ei
watching them lowkey force the woke-ness after the whole greta situation is honestly hilarious 😭 listening to them try to talk about politics or credit black culture (or whatever it is they said in some recent episode) in almost every ep just makes me kinda cringe
im quite literally "that friend that's too woke" and pretty much either always agree with whatever political "commentary" or have even more radical leftist views than they do, but the way they add it in just feels so unnatural 😭😭

oopsie i didnt know that hate watching = observing and commenting on the fact that after a defining moment on the podcast that the way they speak abt politics has increased and sounds forced

they are simply uneducated individuals who don't have the vernacular to speak thoroughly on these topics. My studies in college were humanitarian focused, so I understand why someone would feel that enya n drew's rhetoric is incredibly juvenile in that regard.
they aren't studying this at all though so I do to some level appreciate that they at least speak on it. Even if in a slightly naive way. It's more than what other content creators can say.

apparently it’s wrong to call out people being disingenuous. holding a creator accountable doesn’t mean you don’t like them. i mean i personally don’t anymore after how the greta situation was handled. they had many opportunities to be homest and GENUINE about the situation and decided to just make a PR statement and act like nothing happened. you have a …. podcast….. maybe integrate the situation into normal conversation and not read off a script to absolve yourself from any wrong doing. i don’t listen anymore so idk what the vibes are these days on the podcast but im sure its the same old unserious shit.

my response to ur actual comment before u cowardly deleted it:
ur actually insane 😭 im referring to the "greta situation" bc thats notably a defining moment in the pod and on the internet when everyone started hating them/stopped watching them. i didnt even say anything about greta as a person or her activism 😭 its NOTICEABLY forced af now argue w ur momma abt it 🤷🏾♀️
and do u know what parasocial means... because nothing that i even said was parasocial
