      Whoa, lol, what is this a reference to?? Holy shit! 🤣🤣🤣 Don’t tell me it’s just more youtube drama? Jesus, so many intense opinions about the guy. I had no idea he had garnered such a bizarre reputation. And to think, I’ve been wasting all this time watching his videos twice a year and then getting the fuck on with my life. I guess meta truly will never be not cringe. Lol. Seriously though, what are referencing? Is there some subliminal propaganda sewn throughout his videos that I’m just too dense to pick up on? 😂

        If you don’t know what its in reference to, that’s the point.

        that I’m just too dense to pick up on?

        Not subliminal, but apparently you are too dense to pick up on it yeah.

        If you really need a breakdown of all the Nazism and racist stuff he’s done. Here.

          Lol, a link to a sub literally called youtubedrama. So yes, YouTube meta bullshit. But since you’ve already roped me in, assuming this is all true, that’s fucked up.

          Also, you can be informative without being rude, that would have been appreciated so maybe have a little patience next time.

            I mean… you weren’t particularly nice in our thread. I get that hearing this sort of news about a favorite content creator is difficult, and the natural reaction is to be defensive and abrasive. I think many of us have been there.

              I didn’t attack you, I was being hyperbolic, and I was just reacting to the extremity of the accusation. I don’t think his videos portray the message that the reddit post accused him of. Not defending him or denying the accusations. I couldn’t care less about the guy. From my point of view, he is every kid on the internet pre-y2k. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

                Not denying, then denying in the next sentence.

                The first step of all much grief is denial.

                  Not sure how me “not caring” about a potential nazi is in any way condoning or whitewashing bigotry. I think you need a dictionary friendo. Lol, the closest thing to grief that I’m getting is from you. Again, couldn’t care less, whether or not he is a POS makes no difference to me. I have no dog in this fight. You win. IH = bad. Good job soldier. 🫡

                    Yeh, it’s normal for someone who doesn’t care to still be here insisting, stamping their foot that they definitely don’t care.

                    It’s not cope.

                    Sure.
