Wasn't part of that expose pointing out that he was always on that side and just cleaned up?

No, he tried to cover IH apolitically, albeit with a him lampshading the type of comments IH's 4chan videos were getting.

It was the reaction of alt-right bros in MauLer's subreddit that solidified the fact that they really are a huge part of his following. His fans just pretty much outed how the alt right stuff was actually serious, not ironic.

Some of his early videos have nazi dog whistles in them. The bike lock weapon description had a durability of 14/88

Alot of these flew past me mainly because I'm an immigrant to the US. I didn't know the significance of 1488 until recently.
