Christman: "What do want me to do, Jangle keys in front of his face? He seems like one of the dumbest people ive ever encountered.''

You could see Vaush seething with anger on stream at being called a dumbass.

I'd find the video, but Vaush has so many damn streams and im not sitting through that shit.

    The "Kharkiv Kid Finder" meme getting a Snopes and CNN debunk does legitimately make me think he is an op on some agency's payroll.

    It's just very weird that they felt the need to debunk this. Let's face it, Vaush is well known in online leftist circles... but he's kind of niche overall. (Really, any political YouTube debater is niche.)

    Why would they feel the need to defend him here? Was this meme really getting that much traction on Facebook, etc?

      He might be connected, but also remember that the people who write articles at all these news websites are also online, posting all day long. Chapo Trap House is a pretty niche podcast when you get down to it. but then still have had articles written in major publications. The sadder reality is that some journalist twerp just felt the need to defend their YouTube friend.
