Par for the course of my recent comment regarding theprimeagen.
If you’ve ever watched his live streams, he lets the mask slip from time to time. The point when I realized he was a crypto-fash was when he said “my favourite conspiracy theory is the one that Michelle Obama is a man.” There are other tells and dog whistles if you pay attention.
It should have been obvious earlier to be honest. His on screen personality is like he modelled himself on a slightly less theatrical version of the Dr. Disrespect character and then applied it to programming.
“my favourite conspiracy theory is the one that Michelle Obama is a man.”
That isn’t even a good conspiracy. (that is also why it is a dogwhistle, if you enjoyed those kinds of crazy conspiracies you would say ‘transvestigations where everybody famous is actually trans’ is my fave (and yes they do it to everybody, it is very dumb). Focussing only on Michelle is odd, and shows in the kind of environments you hang out with (My example would be Andrew Tate, but it also isn’t funny, as it is part of the wider ‘make trans people unsafe’ campaign, and people should understand that))).

can i just say that I appreciate your lisp-inspired comment structure?
I have meds for that, but every now and then I don’t correct myself and go with the flow, my mind goes on tangents. I’m fun at parties.
