Comment on Is Asmongold an alt-right "entrypoint" influencer?

Whatever political stance he may hold, or whether he is conscious about it, he is an entrypoint.
His content is uncritical dogpile reactions and no-fact-checks perpetuating drama. Combined with zero effort community weeding.
While theoretically neutral, such hate cesspools are the culture that fuels the alt-right.

Oh look. Another “if you’re not directly supporting my goals, you’re the political opposition” person.
A vote not for x is a vote for y, amirite?

That’s literally how the alt right works. Spot the right environment where things can gradually escalate from a comment or a private message.

As a Louis Rossmann fan I don’t generally like the slippery slope fallacy, but goddamn are you worried about some nothing. You seriously think dudes watching him do his gamer sleaze bits are gonna be all “yeah I think I’ll be a right winger now.”?

It’s called plausible deniability and regardless of the intent there is a direct effect.
You can be mad about it all you’d like, it won’t change the reality.
