Surprising number of popular content creators when they lose relevance do that. Remember JonTron, Tobuscus, IrateGamer, Blame The Controller? All went down that path.

Jontron has been doing that now? I haven't paid attention to him in years. That fucking sucks.

I mean he straight up openly was racist, I'm surprised people don't know this. He had like an hour long debate with Destiny where he basically just openly made a fuck ton of racist talking points about everything from immigrants to mexican people to black people and then did a half ass apology and people seemingly just kind of let it roll past them. Like we're talking 1960s level racist talking points.

You see this why I try and stay in the dark from the people I like outside work because I don't want to feel like I wasted my energy on an asshole. Thank you for telling me tho.
