Reminds me of how I was really excited for hacktivism in the early 2000's but it turned out most people behind it were actual nazis and assholes who wanted to feel important. There's good and bad people out there reviewing old tech is what I'm saying.

Texans are weird about guns. He's no exception, but you knew that from the moment you found out he was a Texan.

A middle aged white man from Texas with an interest in firearms? Absolutely shocked. I enjoy the content despite having no nostalgic ties to the equipment he covers. The bits he reveals about his personal life give me weird vibes though. I wouldn’t trust a man who willingly lives next door to his parents.

I've been in public with people openly armed and it never makes me feel comfortable, this is in texas. At least when it's bikers that do it, it fits their persona. 8bit guy is the exact kind of atypical brained nerd that goes on a shooting spree.

The quote in a vacuum sounds like an idiotic teenager, like, "I skateboarded right in front of the cops and they didn't do poo poo!!!"

Stupidity, pride, and insecurity mark a man's face more deeply than intelligence, humility, and confidence. Posture, too, evidently.

blatman posted:if LGR is bad please nobody tell me ever thanks LGR seems to very deliberately not touch politics with a 50 foot pole in his videos, but I get a distinct Good Dude impression from him overall Civvie is... a little complicated; on the one hand, he seems to really go out of his way to not be offensive in his videos and has a bit character (Cancermouse) where the entire joke is how much Civvie hates Nazi bullshit. on the other hand, he's a hardcore fan of the Postal games and gives them a lot of advertisement, and even shows up in Postal 4, and, uh, Running with Scissors are loving giga chuds. he seems like an overall OK dude who just has a massive blind spot with this one particular game series.

the specific impression I get off LGR is that he has good opinions on most things, if not everything, but he's also not extremely online and doesn't really hear about stuff like the Ion Fury clusterfuck as fast as the rest of us do.

Being he’s from Winston-Salem and resides in Asheville I’d put money on him being a well meaning but somewhat annoying Bernie-bro. It’s either that or hyper mega turbo chud if he’s outside of city limits. Interesting place Asheville.

Here's the 8-bit guy vid. If'n you go through the comments there's one where he says he let his 11 year old carry, which is a step beyond the level of crazy I expect out of Texans, the YT app won't let me copy comments though so you'll have to go digging, it's in a reply to a comment. Clint's expressed displeasure in Trump and that's as far as I've seen him say anything.

GI_Clutch posted:The 8-bit guy just gives me weird vibes. Like he has a secret room filled with Nazi memorabilia or something. O.K. I see the gun stuff has accelerated. Well, my craziest gun friend in real life started his kids on gun safety training at like age 8 so it would be hypocritical of me to stop watching 8-Bit Guy's videos for being slightly less crazy. Well except for the open-carry stuff. But if my crazy gun friend were Texan something tells me he would be doing that, too. Regardless in my opinion the standards for evil have changed so much under the current administration that "letting your kids use guns" no longer even really registers unless they are sending their kids to threaten Black Lives Matter protesters Steve Jorbs posted:I wouldn’t trust a man who willingly lives next door to his parents. Growing up everyone wanted to come to my house because my parents were the only parents who actually welcomed everyone equally and did not judge people for having mohawks or wearing trenchcoats or being trans or whatever. If I still lived in my hometown I would rather live next door to them than still live with them???

He just seems to chill to get worked up over politics.
