(dunk tank for the alt-right youtuber, not the OP who collected the information and posted it)

TLDR: 14/88 memes, Hitler's b'day memes, Tucker Carlson watch parties, and following Proud Boys and Libs of Tiktok.

Never was that big into Internet Historian, but I guess I'll remove the few videos I had in my watch later and tell youtube to stop recc'ing the channel now.

Whew. I guess you either go the idubbbz route and apologize/repent for all your past edginess and denounce that version of you and all the fans who still hold on to it or you become a nazi.

Well, there is a third option. You could be like H3 and seem all progressive and reformed till Israel starts genociding kids and then its "wat about hummus tho" and both-siding it till you've purged the leftist audience you were trying to build.

Can you tell I'm disappointed and still bitter?

    There are so many of these "barely hiding their fash levels" YouTube commentary accounts. EmpLemon, Oki, Turkey Tom. Those are just off the top of my head.

      There are so many "barely hiding their fash levels" in television too. And newspaper media. Wherever there is media and money they're always around.

      Honestly actors are an outlier that the right uses to claim television and movies are "liberal" and that outlier seems to be because they were all weird drama/theatre kids.

      Admittedly I'd been watching a couple of Turkey Tom's videos recently and definitely got the hidden fash vibes off him. I don't even think it's anything he expressly said, it's just a vibe.

      What's wrong with Oki?

      I recognize the rest, considering:

      Turkey Tom obviously had an anti-SJW stance in his video (eg. his video on a small concert regarding Negative EXP), and

      EmpLemon hating on current news entertainment media like Jimmy Kimmel

      But what makes Emp Lemon and Oki fash adjacent?

          nothing wrong with that in particular, but they used the happy merchant meme in the jimmy kimmel video

          https://yewtu.be/watch?v=uLTeMC81FV0&t=547s

          also from the same video

          "because they genuinely believe that the color of your skin somehow makes you privileged. This toxic belief system is destroying Western civilization and it's seeping into some of the most powerful institutions of society. Some of these liberals certainly belong in an institution."
