Yes, it's a Vaush post. Yeah, go post the funny copypasta.
I still think it's incredibly worrying that there's a voice on the "left" that's growing ever popular that seems to find Western Imperialism funny.

The video got 150k views on YouTube.
And CNN doesn't pretend to be left-wing. They don't quote Marx when justifying voting for Biden. They bring up his "smart policies" and ability to "bring people together". It's the co-opting of language that disturbs me.
I'm not saying he's the worst thing ever but using actual left-wing terminology while justifying imperialism, and calling LGBT people who disagree with you "subhuman" and "mentally ill" is going to play out badly in the long run.
I'm just gonna have to hit you with hammer, sorry

They do though. They just don't talk about Marx. They're still doing the "liberals are leftists" thing.
I'm not saying this is directly comparable, but for a sense of scale (for all internet things): I write an incredibly obscure LGBT+ webnovel and it has 500k views.
Now, granted, Vaush got those views faster (but looking at his older videos, none really go above 100k), but mobile Youtube autoplays recommended videos, many of those views are just the same people beteeen videos, how many of those people even know what he said about LGBT people (which even I can't recall), etc... The internet is really, really decentralized in terms of interests.
I'd be surprised if anyone remembered his name in 5 years.
