Bernie Sanders met his first catboy vtuber on a Twitch stream yesterday to help promote presidential candidate Kamala Harris, and, I gotta say, he handled it pretty well. Most people—let alone U.S. Senators—might've been more hesitant, but Sanders took it in stride.

Bernie Sanders, the well-known democratic US senator from Vermont, stops by a Twitch livestream to chat with Pokimane, Sykkuno, and others.

The stream, set for 7:30 p.m. Eastern time, is aimed at addressing a view among Democrats and their allies that the left is giving up critical organizing spaces online.

Creators Pokimane and Valkyrae hosted a chat in support of Kamala Harris that touched on issues of healthcare, minimum wage, and Gaza

Have you heard of a Vtuber before?’ U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders (D-V.T.) participated in a Twitch livestream alongside super popular creators like Imane “ Pokimane ” Anys and Rachell “Valkyrae” Hofstetter on Tuesday night.
