So the director of YIIK and co-founder of Ackk Studios went on a ramble about how people just didn't understand the writing of YIIK. "they just don't get it", to paraphrase. games can't be art if they don't understand Allanson's diatribe apparently
but the biggest take away is where he made these comments. the source isn't mentioned, and from the tweets, you can see why
being on and a fan of a podcast that hosts gamergaters, white nationalists, and literal rape apologists (to name a few) tells you all you need to know about this dude's views

Also I do not recommend listening to the source podcast for context it's uh. Extremely offensive.
I figured I could take the hit, so: listened to the entire convo with Allanson on the podcast in question. It's made clear that Allanson is a fan of the podcast, mentioning seeing their performance live at least once. Previous guests include Tim Pool, Sargon of Akkad, & RooshV.
