    Yikes, I wasn’t aware of that. I’m already avoiding his videos, but I’ll probably completely hide his channel on Youtube.

    EDIT: Do you have a link for that video? I’m searching for it, but trying to find it without clicking on Reddit links is a pain :(

      It was a couple of years ago, just after he had hooked up with a gf, and he was doing weird AMA videos while wearing a smoking jacket. The general gist of the rant was his political beliefs on racism, wokeism, and ‘there are only two sexes’, it wasn’t a full on hate-speech-apoluza, and probably not enough of a red flag for him to continue gaining in popularity.

      For me, it coming a little while after Cody going a bit too RWNJ after Kanyon left him, it was enough for me to nope-out of his channel, but I have a very slim tolerance of youtube celebs anyway, I find most of them unbearable.

      edit: given the ‘My Girlfriend owns a macbook, F my life’ video that was posted a week or two after his rants, I’m going to say it must have been 2019.

        What did Cody ever say/do to give you “right wing nut job” vibes? He basically just started homesteading and pretending he’s on Mars.
