Doing what-if stories would help separate them from the pack. Their grim and dim thing right now isn't great.

I've been watching a lot of Shaun's videos lately, and I've been enjoying them a lot. Even if the content he's covering is utterly heinous. HBomb's video segments on Sargon is great, but it's really only scratching the surface of just how deplorable this man is.

One of Sargon's latest videos is on the 'fragility of femininity' because of the negative reactions to that app that was made to remove makeup from pictures of women. It is mind numbingly dull and pretentious. in case you are curious.

I actually haven’t thought about Sargon since he got blocked from twitter, and man I just realized how great that is. I’m fine with him still doing a youtube that I never have to look at or think about. It’s like that Swamp Thing comic where he visits hell and his nemesis he killed is there getting tortured and Swamp Thing just walks on by and keeps doing his thing.

I do not know every youtuber on a first name basis and I don't think typing "shaun" into youtube will get me anything but that one hilarious heavy rain video. Because I've watched that a lot.

He's a person like HBomb and Contra that has done a lot of talking about right-wing youtube personalities and why they're bad and wrong. He also contributes to the "Why CinemaSins is bad" dialogue. His approach tends to be straightforward, not comedic like HBomb or artsy like Contra, but instead either point-counterpoint or straight up lecture. He's also started to delve into specific events and explaining the misconceptions around them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqCCx4wj79o

FoldableHuman posted:My favourite part of Justice League is when Wonder Woman talks to Superman like they were long time friends, even calling him Kal El (a name she only knows b/c Zod broadcast it worldwide), when he never even knew her name. But, Dan, you see Dan, it makes perfect sense. Dan, okay, remember the last movie, buddy? Diana was all like "Hey, Bruce, here's my Youtube playlist! It's so kewl like share and subscribe" And, Dan, remember, it was all videos of other people. People she only knew from Youtube videos, but she, like, knows them deeply. She only sent a few to her good friend Bruce, but you know she has a whole Pinterest specifically for her other good friend Kal El. Dan, isn't it obvious, she's a Youtube fan who is, like, totally friends on a first-name basis. Heart emoji! Dan! (I joke, but it might as well be. Not like this franchise has an unhealthy "women be shoppin' amiright" tinge to it or anything...)

I remember there was a stream that Hbomb and Garrett (also just channel name Garrett, no first name basis here) did where they both agreed that Shaun really is the best of them and it shows. The only downside is that I never knew about Stefan Molyneux until I watched Shaun and he's like the only one of those types of youtuber that I have an actually hard time watching, even through Shaun.

The 'immigration and the fall of rome' video posted above, at 15:44 I wouldn't really call Shaun's stuff itself left wing per se - he's just explaining things from an informed, truthful perspective reliant on looking at evidence in more detail than others on YouTube. That the left happens to also be on the side of truth is just a coincidence. Hbomberguy fucked around with this message at 13:03 on Nov 20, 2017 |

That threw me too. I was able to find one video of his (it's not nice so won't be linking) which was a "goodbye/gently caress off" of sorts because his subs reacted badly to a somewhat lighter video than the ones he usually put up - he was increibly pissed. That was a year ago, mind...seems like he came back after, but has gone again for unclear reasons. I've seen him have the odd bad interaction with various objectionable lefties on Twitter in the past, dunno if that had owt to do with it but he's totally gone from social media. Won't say much more but hey, wouldn't surprise me if that was the case!

For context British truck stops are tuxedo and top hat affairs for smoking pipes and reading the paper with a fire place, Persian rugs, brandy decanters and other fine furnishings. Nothing like American truck stops.

Yeah Garrett owned. Shaun's kind of taking up that slack, but I really like the thorough fact-checking and debunking stuff and there needs to be more of it. Even though it doesn't fit with optimized YouTube revenue models or whatever.

I think Shaun mentioned in a Q&A video that she wasn't interested in the increasingly political direction? Not as in upset with it or anything, just as in she didn't really care about it so she bowed out of the channel stuff, stuck with the gaming stuff and illustrating.

It tickles me when one of my irl acquaintances sees a video from here. One buddy just came across Hbomb's Virtue Signaling episode and sparked a minor Facebook derail by people offended by the term.
