How did he get a shirt like that?
I thought it was one-of-a-kind made by the friend of some scientist?
I really like his narrative and character but the content is filled with so much propaganda it makes me wonder if he's being serious or satirical.
just a fair warning: this is not satire

I think both.
I think everything he says is [I]kind of[/I] what he means, but he exaggerates it and tries to make it worse so that some people would be mad/entertained.
And that would explain why he has that hated shirt.

Silkscreening comic covers was a thing in the 90s
gamergate isn't a left/right issue. More of an authoritarian extreme left vs everyone else issue.
I mean does anyone seriously think the chans and reddit are right wing.

Depends on which board or subreddit you go on.

/pol/ isnt so much on a political side as it is against the jews. When it really comes down it it, /pol/ is just about the jews.

Racism isn't tied to political belief. There are plenty of left-wing racists; they just tend to be less outspoken than right-wing racists.

I wouldnt say less outspoken, they are just less blunt and paint a facade where it seems like they are more progressive, where as if you really think about what left-wing racists say its actually incredibly racist.
Basically, associating yourself with a political side is stupid.
okay kinda offtopic can someone please explain left/right in a un bias way I get the two confess anyway's this whole thing and the whole GTA V being taken down in Aus is pretty bullshit.

Left is liberal, right is republican.
Left is more leaning towards "all are equal(not on a race level, ignore race entirely for the better) and socialism and those ahead should help those below, and people themselves should go out of their way to help and improve others. Equal wages, equal taxes, etc... Whether this sounds right or wrong its not so simple and this is where tension comes from. Wants to be more progressive instead of following the constitution all the time. Looking for a supposed better change.
Republican is more conservative and while most agree wages and taxes deserve to be more fair, the harder you work, and more effort you put in means you deserve more, more on the individual and their efforts and wanting to "reward" them. Its for the person/company and not the people. Its not wrong or right. Far more helpful to people who got off their feet and tried earning money themselves. Far more likely to uphold our American constitution as the way it was written and sticking to it.
This is mainly American politics and my view on them, if you want the most basic/bias American view on them its this.
Left/Liberals=Whiny, white, hippy college kids complaining how unfair life is and everyone deserves and equal chance and other people should fix their shit. These people make youtube videos talking about how oppressed they are while they record a 1080p 10 minute long video and upload it to youtube.
Republicans/rights=Obnoxious and old assholes who want to support themselves and other richer individuals. They are out to get everyone but themselves on cspan.
In the end your best bet is to just not vote.

The whole idea of left-right politics is flawed. You can't cover everything with a one dimensional spectrum.

Lurk more.

Which makes this video all the more stupid since it equates gamergate = right wing = good.
GTA being withdrawn from Target in Australia is bullshit. The media blaming video games for mass shootings is bullshit.
But this idea of gamergate as "defending free culture" is ridiculous. Even the much-loathed Anita Sarkeesian hasn't called for the banning or censorship of games that she finds sexist. Every Tropes vs. Women video starts with "As always, please keep in mind that it is entirely possible to be critical of some aspects of a piece of media while still finding other parts valuable or enjoyable".

My history teachers always referred to political ideologies as a horse-shoe rather than simply left and right line.
Communism and Nazism/Fascism have a surprising amount of similarities in how they treat people as a crowd instead of a range of individuals with differing needs and goals and both are very nationalist.

I think her writer would like to disagree with you.

Lot's more then that, his name is Jonathan Mcintosh. Furthermore, you have to realize that these people celebrated the fact that GTAV was censored :

It's ridiculous to assume that they don't support censoring it.
Can we stop posting this guy? "Revolting" is certainly an accurate way to describe most of his content.

The only truth in these videos is that they're revolting.
