The Prim Reaper

I like watching the Prim Reaper because she makes a lot of intelligent talking points in her videos and she even responds to her comments a lot. I would say Shoeonhead but she has been very infrequent lately. She doesn't make a lot of videos on men's issues as much anymore and she makes new episodes like every handful of months too. Those were my 2 favorite left leaning YouTubers.

Bret Weinstein, Benjamin Boyce

Cathy Young (especially about MeToo issues), Helen Pluckrose (though unfortunately she hardly writes about men's issues anymore), Jerry Barnett (Sex and Censorship), William Costello (though a bit inconsistent), Griet Vandermasse (evolutionary psychology), older (YouTube): Amazing Atheist.

Kyle Kulinski is a populist, so he only really rejects feminism in so far as its popularity but overall he doesn't really give a shit about men's issues(or at least is ignorant to them but still doesn't really care). h3h3 i think is better, he rejects feminism and is more friendly to men's issues. Weird thing about his community though is I see a lot of his fans on reddit that also post on Trollx. Very strange, I never understood that.

Only people I can really think of are Angie Speaks and Roma Army. Roma admits she doesn't do research or participate in the mra community but she still fills a pretty necessary void. There's a pretty big vacancy of left wing or left leaning voices online tbh. The biggest ones would be shoeonhead and chris ray gun but... yeah they still don't really know anything about men's issues.. lol. The most these people do is help normalize discussion of men's issues, but they don't really talk or know about them.

You can probably add Shoe0nHead's boyfriend, Armored Skeptic to that list. Also Teal Deer (TL;DR), but he hasn't been that active lately. The Amazing Atheist's older videos focused a lot on feminism as well.

I wouldn't really call him an activist, but Bill Burr rants a lot about sibjects like that.

The intersectional feminist Bell Hooks attacks that dichotomy in for example in her books Feminism is for Everybody and The Will to Change: Men, Masculinity and Love.

She thinks that it's important to recognize patriarchy is perpetuated by both men and women. She thinks that the myth of women as being always the passive and the oppressed men being always the active and the oppressor . For example, there are little boys beaten by their mothers to 'toughen' them up if they aren't 'man enough'.

Vaush every now and then does pro-men segments that are purely supportive, and pushes back against his chat when they spew some harmful neolib talking points. His approach to issues based on intersectionality is quite good and while I think he could talk about it more he doesn't at all base his politics on things that make it worse for men

If you want some women there's Karen Straughan and Camille Paglia

I was going to say Kyle Kulinski, but I see you have already mentioned him. I guess Joe Rogan could be counted in as well.
