such a nuanced guy
So you're a "fan" but you haven't watched any of his streams for the last 10 months?
Maybe instead of trusting your defective gut, you could do some due diligence and look up the fascist filth he's been spitting out for the better part of a year
Honestly it seems like half these losers don't actually consume that much content from the streamers they Stan, they just like them because they reflect a vague political vibe they ID with. I being up well documented shit that Vaush/Destiny/Jordan Peterson/ect said, often not even that long ago, to their fans and they're all like "I never heard about any of this".
Your gut reaction would be wrong. He is firmly anti-Palestine and pro-Zionism. He's remarkably ill-informed on the history of the subject outside of wikipedia articles.
I mean... I basically got radicalized on the subject after October 7th reading through the Wikipedia articles on the history of Israel, Palestine, and how many deals were almost made and who stopped them. So even that doesn't seem like an excuse to stay pro-Zionist.
Oh, don't misunderstand, Mr. Boticelli was a racist to begin with, but his reasoning comes straight from wikipedia articles alone.
What did he say that required nuance?
"Nuance" isn't the same as "look i'm not racist, but small business owners should shoot BLM protesters"
I got your nuance right here
Lmao he’s a Zionist freak and insane rightwinger who has called for Palestine to be wiped out. How are you this disconnected from his actual opinions but also come galloping to his defense like a loyal fan?
Nuance!
