He is an ableist shitass, among other things, and I have NO idea why half of you still idolize him as being "leftist" when he's no different to half the socdems online who survive on internet drama rather than anything of fucking substance.

We need to start doing more litmus tests like the libs imagine we do already; coz if y'all are upset for some guy who talks about neurodivergent folk the same way Fox news anchors talk about classroom litter boxes, then I dont know when the fuck we are getting any kind of revolution beyond ameriKKKa with healthcare subsidies

Someone once said iirc basically he is what happens when you dunk on the most wilfully ignorant people online and slowly start to think that it makes you a genius. I think that more or less describes him up to and including his ableism and transphobia. I suspect that he thinks he's just being "provocative", and yeah, being an outspoken bigot tends to provoke people... Asshole.

Many such cases! a-little-trolling

It's funny because BE also has many unprincipled and ignorant geopolitical takes. Wasn't he an Uyghur Genocide guy? So he can't even claim to be the genius geopolitics understander.

He also does the whole "I'm not like other streamers, I'm a well-adjusted person who doesn't cultivate parasocial relationships and isn't addicted to drama" thing while spending 19 hours a day on social media obsessively posting about random streamer nobodies and getting banned from twitter 35 times a month
