I know he has problematic viewpoints (I don't remember specifically what he has done).
But I tend agree with his stances when it comes to developers/publishers doing anti consumer BS (EGS, Bethesda etc)
Someone let me know if any of these guys are bigots, they're the only gaming channels I watch these days:
quill18
Pravus gaming
Praetorian HiJinx
Many A True Nerd
HeirofCarthage
NGParadox
Keralis
Horath Drak
Also been binging The Armchair Historian for bitesize history lessons.
I have the same problem, except that whenever I find a new channel I like it turns out that they like to order boneless chicken wings and I have to boycott them on principle.
Interested in this, those guys are a fair portion of strategy gaming players (you like paradox games?) that I watch
If ACG is Angry Centaur Gaming the guy who makes them posts here on Era and is a pretty good dude. The second one is unknown to me.Hoping ACG and VaatiVidya are good dudes, they are basically the only 2 Youtubers I watch
Yep I'm currently obsessed with all things Paradox and Total War! I haven't sensed anything dodgy with these channels, they seem like decent folk, but ya never know...
well it was mainly for me what got me to stop watching his videos was his lack of being critical for anythink Kojima related as well as CD projekt Red.I know he has problematic viewpoints (I don't remember specifically what he has done).

I rarely watch YouTube videos with "personalities" but I Upper Echelon Games said some suspect stuff really quick so they were removed. I'd say the only videos I watch now with people talking are Adam Savage, games done quick runs, fighting game tournaments, and (very rarely) the rad Brad and angry Joe.Gaming channels that I checked out for the first time recently that then quickly revealed themselves to be shit:
Layman Gaming, Upper Echelon Games & LegacyKillaHD.
With the ending of GoT I also recently came across multiple channels that had some pretty funny roasts of the final episodes but turned out to be alt-right cesspools such as The Critical Drinker, Thor Skywalker and MooLer (that last one became apparent real fast considering who some of the the people were who participated in the GoT video).
Oh man, don't avoid podcasts altogether, there's plenty of good ones to be enjoyed.The fact that this is such a problem within the gaming community is the reason I just avoid podcasts and youtube personas altogether.
I don't know about rad brad, but as for angry joe...and (very rarely) the rad Brad and angry Joe.
If Brad or Joe are shitheads please let me know so I can reduce rarely to never.
God damn. First you had The Sphere Hunter and now Joe. I was following both for years...I don't know about rad brad, but as for angry joe...

Seems he learned the wrong thing from his BF video controversy.
Time to unsubscribe.
This sucks...

Like I would understand being a fan of his work but to go on and defend him? That's something I can't approve off.
A shame really, she is usually pretty good on these issues but to stan for Reuben out of all people when he did this:
Reuben Langdon (Dante of DMC) blames sexual harassment victims; thinks MeToo and BLM"goes too far" UPDATE: Regrets nothing; Capcom never investigated
Reuben Langdon, who is the voice and mo-cap actor behind Dante in the Devil May Cry series since Devil May Cry 3, was recently interviewed on YouTube and during said interview an extended discussion about the recent events of his fellow voice actor Vic Mignogna having various sexual harassment...www.resetera.com
I can't say this doesn't affect my enjoyment of her videos.
I follow a few gun history channels like Forgottenweapons, as far as I'm aware they haven't uploaded anything obvious and as long as they didn't make a habit out of it I would still watch because I find them interesting.
Really fucking hate how pogo turned out. He made some great remixes but his shit views made me stop letting my kids listen to it. Thankfully they were really young at the time so they don't really remember it.
He made a video where he said he hates gay people and thought the Orlando shooting was fantastic. I think he tried to walk it back like it was performance art, or something or other. Soon as I saw that I said nope, not playing his music in my home. And it really sucked because my kids (and me too) really liked those remixes. After that I didn't look back. I don't think they remember but before all that we used to play his songs all the time on car rides.
If y'all are looking for good movie reviewers who aren't trash the former What The Flick team formed a new channel:

It's important to remember what his original username was, as well. I uh, would rather not repeat it here.jesus... I don't know what I expected but it wasn't full psychopath. Reading up on it he seems like the absolute worst of the worst of these youtubers
I've been wondering about a browser plugin that tags these kinds of names/companies/channels for a while.We need to make a full, complete list of what alt-right, right-wing, conservative sites, channels, blogs, etc. to avoid.

Man, so much of that music was just completely charming. I'd completely forgotten until just now and I'm kinda heartbroken all over again. Upular in particular: I can hear every note in my head, which is almost as good I guess.
Oh for fucks sake, I kinda knew but I didn't want it to be true :(I don't know about rad brad, but as for angry joe...
I remember finding TheQuatering and thinking his a decent Gamer Youtuber... then he made a comment in an Apex Legend video about the lack of White Characters
Unsubbed in a heartbeat
This would be great.I've been wondering about a browser plugin that tags these kinds of names/companies/channels for a while.
There's alt-right stuff on my feed from watching some random gaming channels from time to time. Getting tired of filtering them out. I don't even watch gaming stuff that much on YouTube and hate watching people play games. Zero appeal to me. Yet I still get this stuff on my feed. Most of the ones that are on that side are usually white and appeal to the whole "anti-SJW" thing anyway. So I guess I've been able to avoid most of it as I've tried to watch channels featuring PoC.
I follow sports stuff, fitness, art, music, book, tech channels, and movie related channels. Gaming is overwhelmingly full of alt-right goons. I have clicked on some of the videos out of curiosity-- mainly because of the Jordans Peterson thread here. I'm pretty firm in my beliefs and I think people are being extreme when they act like YouTube will mindlessly turn into one of them. If you get convinced that it's ok to be a bigot through a series of YouTube videos from man children, then maybe your views were fickle to begin with.
They're just people with shit views and fragility when it comes to their privilege and being checked lol. They aren't under some trance. They choose to be what they are. Guess this must be a huge concern for kids playing Fortnite who might find out their favorite streamer is saying it's cool to be a bigot.

Well that's how I see it as dangerous. Kids are malleable. And a lot of them watch YouTubers who funnel this stuff.I dont think the kids would be concerned. Quite the opposite. If their favorite streamer, who they often see as a "friend" says something bigoted, they think thats fine or "its just a joke"..
I think you underestimate the pliability of children and preteens which is mostly who these people are trying to target.
