Ah yeah, the guy who threw away his channel to shit on Anita Sarkeesian non stop for like a decade. I'd ask if he's moved on from that but I think we all know that isn't the case. Once you get high on the gamergate noncesense there's no coming back from that.

It feels pathological honestly. He's so damn mad that even his hardcore fans (the few that were left) were telling him to chill out on the Sarkeesian content. And he was so desperate for reasons to hate her he had to start making them up.

What I don't get is why he kept going on after it was made ABUNDANDLY clear that doing so was siding with literal pedo-nazis. Like I would get up to that point because being blinded by hatred, but he had his 'come to jesus' moment and then just went right back to doing it. It wasn't even for money because like you said even his hardcore viewers were dropping like flies every time he did one, that man was clearly being motivated by something external and the less I know about it the happier I'll be.

He did somewhat move on. He's back to debunking pseudoscience these days.

That's good to hear, but I still don't trust them after what they did during gamergate.

Fantastic video! Do keep in mind however, that Thunderf00t is a very socially and economically conservative person of which you should watch with caution. I mostly keep to watching his Elon dunk videos and his pseudo-scientific-Kickstarter de-legitimizing videos.

Same here. Looking to also debunk pseudoscience on my channel.

Musk is an amazing bullshit artist.

Speaking of which, ProleWiki should add the pseudoscience bullshit to the article.

Wait, there's more than one or the title is ironic?

In a world where the USSR won the cold war, TransPod is a body editing medical service.
