What did he do?
Plagiarism as well as rampant nazi iconography in his videos.
I didn't believe it at first because I had watched a bunch of his videos and didn't really get that impression. But the dog whistles were just well hidden. It's actually really bad.
This just made me realize how right wing trolls no longer play the "It's satire but not really" game. Or maybe I just don't see them anymore
I thought everyone already knew this, dudes entire career kicked off from /pol/ related videos.
Dude used to delete my YT comments so fast I thought something was wrong with my internet.
Which? The net historian or the smile guy that he's using as his pic?
Internet Historian.
Plagiarism.
Not even just that, apprently he a bit of a white supremacist as well.
Shit what? Details!
Goddamn thanks for sharing
This is one of the best YouTube essays there are imo.
Hbommerguy is the goat
No 14/88 in this tweet? He must have plagiarized this tweet then.
Internet plagiarist
I don't know who needs to hear this right now but you can't unscramble an egg. Just know that you're a shinning beacon. It's ok to masticate so, so much and remember that all you need is it's got to be the shoes.
I wonder who he plagiarised that from?
That was my first thought, and then someone in this thread did in fact find an earlier post by someone else. Though I don't know if that was the original.
Literally all of the hope post communities.
If it's not said to you, for your situation, all it sounds like is this post. Absolute pandering that just feels worse when you're actually in a tough spot that words cannot fix.
A funny post, online slightly undercut by the fact IH is a piece of shit
Wait, what?
Plagiarism, and the videos are full of nazi jokes/dog whistles.

It's karma time
Damn. I really needed to hear this. Thanks. 🙏
Damn. Tagline from a Nike commercial. I never thought about it that way.
It's okay to verb.
So deep.

Will you be my family??
Saving this to post on all of Lady Butterfly's posts going forwards.
Give her a little break. Some of us lurk memes constantly, others post what they find. I saw some very 'wholesome' interactions with her when she was talking about the trip she was going to be taking. At least she's not a bot.
LinkedIn is just madlibs for yuppies.
Finally! Now I can stop [Unhealthy coping mechanism that I'm absolutely not going to do immediately after posting]
