Do you consider those to be right-leaning YouTubers?

Do you consider those YouTubers to be right-leaning or conservative-leaning?:
And as a bonus, do you have in mind any left-leaning YouTubers covering similar topics?
What topics?

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

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?
Penguinz0 I guess?

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

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

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.

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.

So are you trying to say that the fact that games have always been political means it's wrong to cover politics in games on YouTube?
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.
You already admitted yourself that games were always political so how does it not exist?
