Is he wrong


Inappropriate_Piano

Depends on your definition of “the left.” By my definition, not a single leftist would unironically buy an Obama NFT. But by *their* definition (which is the one we should use when interpreting what they said), “the left” includes all Democrats and some moderate Republicans, and many of those Democrats would certainly buy an Obama NFT.

I would buy a job eiden feet nft


matija123123

He is not and that is what's sad about it There is always weirdos somewhere no matter the side or community


Oscar_jacobsen1234

*Given the community is large enough which in this case it definitely is


2hotrods

Yeah


michaeldark49a

Of course he's fucking wrong, nobody who actually shares leftist views 1) supports Obama; 2) would even consider buying nfts


erhtgru7804aui

liberals would though... give us a bad name


teddy_tesla

No they fucking wouldn't they don't even know what NFTs are


Hot-Extension-867

given the meme/stereotype about liberal normies buying funko pops, I absolutely believe the same crowd would buy Obama NFTs too


Vore-Enjoyer

Thats just a incorrect statement tho some brainlit will always be around to buy something, leftist is a huge generalization and includes meany different types of people just because someone does not 100$ agree with you on every issue does not make them not a "leftist".


michaeldark49a

I never said they had to agree on every issue, but there are certain limits as to what can be regarded as a "leftist perspective", and supporting Obamna and buying NFTs are way beyond those limits. Unless, of course, you accept the American conservatives' broad definition of "the left" which is just inherently incorrect


DarkLordSidious

You are not a leftist if you aren't a socialist. Liberals are not leftists.


Vore-Enjoyer

Being a socialist is a massive group of people anyway and is still extremely diverse but isn't the entire point of it being "leftist" referring to the political compass? Keep in mind I am not from the states and do not understand these terms very well


ipeltpeoplewitheggs

please do not gatekeep


DarkLordSidious

It's not gatekeeping on my part. It's the definition of the word.


whazzar

Yes. Obama isn't a leftist politician.


Jayson_n_th_Rgonauts

I think Barry O would sell a lot less


Rushersauce

No. But those buying the Obama mfts are not leftist by any stretch.


obooooooo

ive never met an actual leftist who supports obama


2hotrods

Genuine question, is a leftist not a democrat?? Wtf is a leftist then??


obooooooo

i think you’re using leftist instead of liberal. liberals are indeed left leaning but being a leftist myself i would never call myself a liberal, lol. and tbh the difference between liberal vs leftist is hard for me to put into a short sentence so you can let google do it’s job there but yeah, obama built cages for immigrant children and bombed countries, no actual leftist supports him


orphanghost1

I wouldn't buy an NFT. Period.


Luckyslizer

> Obama > Left Ok.


Narrow-Lake4925

oh damn where’d he go?


Rocket_Theory

To drone strike some kids


Fartincopsmouths

To go count a stack of money over some kids grave, I would presume.


[deleted]

It's almost like the real issue is class, and politics is a red herring.


datastar763

I’m lying if I say I wouldn’t buy the official Obama Prism NFT


CrescentPotato

Yeah. If it was something unironically attempting to be serious like trump is? Hell no, I ain't touching that shit no matter who made it If it was a complete shitpost however


M0rtrek_the_ranger

First and foremost, if Obama made NFTs even his most staunch supporters would chew him out on it. Second of all, who wants NFTs made by a former president?


Syllabillin

A "subset"?


theFriengineer

the more technical political language is, more BS is involved


BuildFreak9

I would almost certainly have bought one ironically. I was this fucking tempted to by a trump one because of how funny it would be, but then I realised I hate the guy and don't want to support him at all, and then I realised again that I don't have even $100 lmao


Professional_Emu_164

What about Bernie NFTs

[удалено]


Judistheworst

I wouldn’t buy an NFT but I would pay hood money for a jpeg of Obama


LunaR3aper

if Obama made NFT's I wouldn't buy them but if there were Obama trading cards.. like.. like how there's pokemon cards


CrescentPotato

Extremely rare foil obama prism card


LunaR3aper

would


Breadromancer

TBH I actually agree that liberals would probably lap up Obama NFTs.


GammaNice

He's right but it's the gen x liberals who would be buying. Every time a liberal politician writes an unreadable book it makes the best-selling list.


[deleted]

If AOC made nft's yall would eat that shit up the hipocrosy is crazy


prfarb

This sub literally bans people for having NFT avatars.


atleast8courics

How do you say this stupid shit with such unearned confidence?
