Had a ex-friend who went real hard last year about feeling his masculinity has been challenged. Went deep into the manosphere language. He was extra annoying. Every convo was about how he, a white man in America, was being repressed. He started labelling random shit as masculine/feminine. Got sick this and stopped inviting him.

A few months later, I learned the divorce was finalized and he's been sending me invites to hang with him in his bachelor pad. Nah dog you suck now.

yeah and i bet that shit was the reason for the divorce. i got a friend who lost her husband down the right wing rabbithole and now she's processing the grief of losing someone she loved to something so goddamn stupid

This could have been me. For the longest time I was watching right wing YT channels without really realizing it because they were hiding their messaging well under legitimate critique of the movies and shows I was no longer enjoying. My girlfriend and I got into multiple arguments over this and I could tell that this was something we'd never agree on, which makes sense of course. Eventually I managed to pull myself out by unsubscribing from these channels ocne the messaging became a lot more clear (around 2021, you can probably guess why) and since then things have been much better between us and in general.

Maybe a weird thing to ask, but could you provide an example video/channel? I find these kinds of things very fascinating.

Like I said in another comment, Cinnamontoastken is one of them. Other ones (with varied levels of "hiding their messaging") would be:

  • Critical drinker - he's more in the camp of acting like it was a joke / satire butl it really wasn't. Also, he made his own "good" movie which sucked ass :D
  • Nerdrotic - he's someone I turned away from very quickly, he doesn't hide it at all and is constantly racist, bigoted and discriminatory. He kinda serves as a lightning rod for the others, as in "oh this guy is so bad but these other ones are okay".
  • Oompaville - bit of a different genre, mostly react content, he always seemed like a classic freedom lover Texan but seemed like a decent guy. Kinda went off a cliff once Trump got re-elected with his snarky comments and comment section.
  • Baggage claim. Seemed like a slightly more feminist conservative but went off the deep end around the time of the election, spreading misinformation and diving into conspiracy theories about RFK and the deep state.

I'm sure there's others but those were the ones I remember the most.

Edit: I just remembered another one, Asmongold. He's close to being the worst one. He hides his opinions behind reaction content and video games, always acts like he's a "neutral fencesitter" but deep down loves it that Trump won again and was full-on conspiracy clowning about covid vaccines and the election being "stolen".
