    Asmongold is definitely right wing but I can't think of anyone who fills his specific niche of bottom of the barrell filth encrusted rat person.

    I mean most left youtubers shower and clean regularly.

    It's a bit of a cognitive dissonance. If I had to guess a politics by the looks, I would expect hippies like that to be left. Okay, but do you know anyone neat and clean covering the same topics then?

      I've noticed a much higher concentration of conservatives on Blizzard games than most others.

        Do you consider those YouTubers to be right-leaning or conservative-leaning?:

        • Chibi Reviews
        • Asmongold
        • Vara Dark

        And as a bonus, do you have in mind any left-leaning YouTubers covering similar topics?

          Politics and censorship in gaming and anime + all the relevant social media drama.

              Thanks for rec! I wonder what's so uncomfortable about my post and why it gets so many downvotes and so little answers.

                Because you seem to be unaware that, say, asmongold is so far right that it almost feels like satire

                    Why should I know that? I got some of his videos in recs a month ago when he did cover Steam/Itch issues since then I watched him maybe 5-6 times. Why assume everyone should know every popular YouTuber on earth? I'm not even from America.

                      Asmongold is 100% right-leaning. I hadn't looked at Chibi or Vara yet (maybe Chibi is right-leaning if I have). Russel Brand is left-leaning, but he's a Jesuit, which is a turnoff for myself and my producer.

                        Politics and censorship in gaming and anime

                        This. This right here is why you're getting downvotes and no one is taking you seriously.

                        Politicization of video games isn't a real thing. Games have always been political. Nobody complained about the early Metal Gear games and their critiques of the military industrial complex, nor about the original Dues Ex and it's critiques of corporate control mixed with government control. I mean, Cyberpunk was a pen and paper game way back in the day and the entire cyberpunk genre has always been deeply political as a warning of what happens when corporations usurp power from governments and treat everything and everyone as merely something to extract money from. Wolfenstein is specifically anti-Nazi and always has been and the Nazi's were a political group.

                        People like Asmongold are being unserious and disingenuous when discussing this subject. To find other people discussing the same subjects, you will invariably only find right-wing voices who are trying to make people angry at something that doesn't actually exist.
