It's like buying a tiara for your fetus, before you even buy a crib.

Who is crowder and what did he do?

[–] discostjohn@programming.dev 16 points 7 months ago (2 children)

I'm not entirely sure what his deal is or why he's famous, but I've seen a handful of videos that he's posted to YouTube.

He'll set up a little table like the one in the meme at a college campus, and his sign will read something divisive and clickbaity like "there are only two genders CHANGE MY MIND"

He basically invites people to debate him on camera, but he isn't sincere in any way and the whole setup is just a mechanism for him to generate content of him owning the libs. For instance, he uses a system where there's just one microphone between him and the other person, but he always holds the microphone and he can cut people off any time he wants. Any time he loses ground in an argument he'll say something like "the point isn't to be right; it's to change my mind" or some dumb shit.

He's a right wing guy with dumb opinions and he argues in bad faith. That's pretty much his whole deal

There was a video that came out a while back of Crowder being abusive to his pregnant wife and acting like an all around entitled fucking man baby.

Then she divorced him and now Crowder wants No Fault Divorce to end because a married woman is property or some such shit.

Damn thank you for telling me will certainly avoid using that meme

failed comedian turned right wing grifter recently exposed as a raging misogynist, and now trying to bolster his reputation by doing high profile media campaigns he calls journalism but are really specious, salacious smear campaigns.

i mean he might be onto something with this blackrock thing but he's probably the worst possible person to bring it to light.
