    Illuminaughtii was pretty wild.

    JonTron said all that Great Replacement Theory racist shit but collab’d with Internet Historian on his B channel some time after. Haven’t followed him in a long time so I donno if his career suffered.

    Onision is nuts in so many dark and strange ways that were completely predictable.

    Among them all I’m so glad that Internet Comment Etiquette has always been my favorite. Eric is a good boy.

    Edit: Erik with a K is a good boy.

      there´s plenty of leads that make people think internet historian is not clean either. putting “1488” and “88” dogwhistles in his videos aswell as crudely drawn swastikas or stars of david in inconvenient places. he follows questionable far-right people on twitter and in the “bikelock fugitive” video he just goes with the 4chan story.

        And not to mention they were one of the other receivers of Hbomberguy’s famous plagarism video.

          that’s just a judgement on his content and doesn’t give insight on his probably far right political stance

        Fair enough. I don’t seek out YouTube drama so I don’t know anything not sent my way, but the JonTron thing left a bad enough taste I stopped following him.

        I had no idea about the other shit, but it kinda makes sense given the tone of his videos regarding SJWs, women, tumblr, etc.
