got elected in the first place, in large part, because of the gimmick, the novelty, the brand recognition. Sure, the bigotry and the crude barbarism appeal for chuds was there too, but that’s what I’m worried about.
My concern is that description, including basically all of the above, has a lot of overlap with a lot of famous-for-being famous “influencer” grifters.
I can’t help wondering if the red team vs blue team of the electoral future of Burgerland will be some shrieking game streamer chud ® 
versus some cold-eyed rictus smiling “philanthropy” grifter (D) 
I ask if there’s something I’m not thinking of that might push back against what looks like an inevitability, short of Giant Meteor 2024 or sufficient Cool Zone events.
under capitalism in the US right now? I can see more unknown rich people getting into buying astroturfed campaigns to create political personas for the national scene and vaulting over any online streamers because they have more connections and probably more money to spend on this stuff, a bit like Vivek Ramaswamy or Nicole Shanahan, wouldn’t surprise me if one of the ‘All In’ podcast guys like David Sacks thought he can run too, this is not really copium though because I’m basically saying that ruthless capitalists would bump off the online narcissists in a competition for limited seats, also this would assume the public stops voting for career politicians, but that’s kind of already happening with the Republicans
I’m expecting rich ghouls to continue gorging on the Earth and everyone else living on it, but I was in the bargaining phase where I wanted them to at least not be child-focused parasocial parasites with doll-like eyes on top of that.
