But..but..he went on Reddit and posted a half-hearted apology where supposedly because some people called him out and took a shot at his fragile ego and threatened some of his corporate sponsorships, he suddenly gained empathy for people of Gaza and we should all move on from it now because he said he's sorry now!

The guy is raising a stink now for saying Gaza is a terrible people and inferior to western culture in every way. He seems to really get off on trolling the crowds. Not really concerned about nuance in his presentation.

He's got this overt troll thing down pat, he sounds totally sure of himself making emphatic comments easily with conviction, while maybe next week he'll change what he says with as much conviction.

That is kind of his thing. He pokes fun at everyone, and just marches to the beat of his own drum. Doesn't care about the drama he causes. One thing I can say though, is he isn't stupid either. He is probably one of the more intelligent Youtubers I have listened too, which isn't hard to do. Most Youtubers would not dare to post their actual opinions. He isn't called a disciple of Nurgle for no reason.

Hey, I never even heard of him before this thread. This thread was more about my feeling nostalgic for the old days of this, forum really.

That's why I put in a disclaimer about gamer culture, just in case something like this surfaced.

Gamers are going to be very pissed very shortly. ooof

You know, I probably should have taken a stance on this earlier, but I'm extremely irritated at this point by the emergence of a gamers as a political constituency. I don't object to video games in and of themselves, and I do enjoy them when I play them, but making it an identity like this? Where else do hobbies become a political constituency in this fashion? Who else does this? The NRA is the closest I can imagine.
