i am about 75% sure the dumb "sexy nazi" poo poo comes from literature which links leather culture with certain aspects of post-WWII culture both in and out of Germany, but this is the kind of poo poo you shouldn't be talking about outside of like, a seriously researched paper or book



i mean this would obviously not be the first time that bad takes have resulted from people taking academic discourse out of context
not to get too much into a youtubers inner world but he likely just had an aesthetic and historical fascination with the concept of gay people inside the nazi party/nazi germany, and instead of reading literature about this and coming to an informed conclusion he just sorta projected it outwards into the world

Here's the thing though, the perfect Youtuber with the perfect opinions and perfect politics who never ever said anything bad doesn't exist. The absolute smartest people you've ever heard of is still always going to have said or done some cringey poo poo at some point.

This statement is blasphemy for as long as the perfect and infallible angel, Rich Evans, is still generous enough to appear in videos for our enjoyment.

Vvvmaybe, couldn't say. It just raised a flag for me. I don't follow country, but had still seen 2 videos by Pat Finnerty on country songs recently, during which, he mentions he likes country.

Oh, I wouldn't know about that. Not interest in any of the source material or Fans of it. I just happened to listen to some interviews with Jennette. She seems far more interesting as a person than any of the media she acted in as a kid.

The book isn't really about the shows just her life, which happens to include the shows. I think that makes sense lol, but it's very good

Instead of wishing that Quinton made shorter videos just watch pop arena instead.

I really hope their videos get more views, they’ve been sitting at 25k subs / ~10k views for a year or so now and they deserve so much more, the more longform stuff like the videos on nick studios or the history of looney tunes on television are as well written as anything put out by defunctland et al.

I've tried two videos so far and I agree, this is nice. It's pretty much exactly what Quinton should have been making instead.

You made me go look up what his serial killer superhero name was, and that's not on there, but I feel it's unfair one man gets to be both the "Werewolf of Wysteria" and the "Brooklyn Vampire." Bethesda won't let us play both at the same time for a reason!!!

hazel might have gotten swordcraft story's deal wrong but i don't really hold it against her much bc her videos are just about stuff she played/watched growing up and how they make her feel nostalgic. they're pretty banal vibey videos and i like that

and also the videos are generally pretty personal

someone like somerton puts none of himself into his work to the point that it doesn't qualify as art. but he's a marketing/business guy, so, that tracks

also the thing about quinton's videos is that he actually DOESN'T spend 21 hours recapping sam and cat. of the 21 hours, maybe 1-2 of those hours is spent recapping the show and the rest is all "intermission" content. so it's uncharitable to say he doesn't put effort in, in fact having his dad talk about beverly hillbillies for 24 hours for an april fools prank is too much effort. most of these videos are him doing tedious conspiracy theory crafting, playing a video game adaptation, having a table read of an unfilmed spinoff script, doing a shipping board for some reason, reviewing web material

it's ridiculous to the point where he has mid-intermission intermissions and i'm not joking

if she played swordcraft story as a kid and has an attachment to it then that take is even sadder
