what's interesting is that Blood & Honour first emerged in the U.K. -- which makes me wonder whether some South African neo-Nazis moved to the U.K. and got involved and that's where they picked it up.

oh yeah, its why i don't trust overtly performative Woke white guys(hell anyone who over the top about something with morality or anything) because they often end up being hypocritical pieces of poo poo. like alot of the evangelicals being hosed up rapists or perverts. like it honestly wouldn't surprise me if wheaton was as abusive as chris, i hope its not true, but it wouldnt surprise me.

There's been how many cases of woke male feminist allies getting outed as abusers and creeps in the last couple years? Especially when they've been bitching about how all the other nerds are misogynists and video games having tits in them is a moral crisis.

Not so much people from SA moving to the UK (although I'm sure it happened), but there are very strong ties between the British far right and white southern Africans, going as far back as the Rhodesian/Zimbabwe civil war. Thomas Mair, the man who killed Jo Cox MP for being "A traitor to Britain and the White Race", had a large number of publications from African white supremacists (probably need to come up with a better term because that's a bit confusing), and Combat 18 and other right wing terrorist groups have a lot of Rhodesian bush war memorabilia and imagery in their, for want of a better word, mythology.

Chris Hardwick founded The Nerdist, and was the media's go-to panel host after his Nerdist podcast got popular. The Nerdist's whole appeal is emulating the illusion of talking about things you like with your friends, only nobody hates anything or is critical of anything that's not already popular to dislike.

I wish there was a way to display how much and how often twitter accounts delete their posts. It would be interesting if people had to acknowledge how often the things they say are so wrong or humiliating that they regret having said them. Like they have to use cheat codes when expressing themselves in public because they're so ashamed of their own words.

Chris Hardwick sold of his Nerdist company years ago and left the company altogether in December and they just removed every mention of him from their website so if you like Nerdist content it’s still ok to like it but hate Hardwick.

pretty much. they arnt wrong, nerd communities are cesspool that should be cleaned up. but many of them suffer from the evangelical poo poo where they just project outward constantly and are just as lovely if not more so.

I feel like id know if my best friend was doing that kinda poo poo to women. will is vocal as gently caress about being socialy progressive as poo poo so i hope i am wrong, but sadly it wouldnt surprise me if he is just hoping this goes away. all these other people who were friends with them or worked with them are confirming it so either will is legit ignorent or up his own rear end.

the rest of nerdist has come out in support of her. so where the gently caress is Wesley. There is absolutely no way he doesn't know about his best friend's tendencies or at least have a glimpse into them. I know that people are sometimes completely different behind closed doors, but stuff like this has signs over time when you're that close with someone.
We all think we would know. If Wil is the kind of guy he seems to be, he's in shock at finding out that his best friend was gaslighting him the whole time and torn up by the fact that he always thought he would know and fell into an abuser's trap. Remember that he suffers from severe depression and that can make it even harder to deal with something traumatic. Give him some time and the benefit of the doubt until he says something.
