I think that's a bit of a stretch. Its entertainment and that's why I watch it. But even my favorite podcasters are very clearly coming from an angle with their opinions. This isn't a secret.

Like, I enjoy watching Hasan. But the first show I watched of his was literally called "AgitProp" lol.

oh no I'm not saying everyone who watches podcasters/streamers thinks this, I'm saying the specific type of person who would make this would think this. Especially from fans of stuff like the bad faith pod I'll hear them say that they like the show because it "doesn't have an agenda" when it obviously does. Similar type of stuff that you hear from breaking points or timcast fans

Oooohh understood. Yeah that makes sense. I thought you were making a sweeping generalization and I got confused. All good.
