Oh my, they do have a thread!
It’s wild how I can watch a youtube video for an hour, think ‘something doesn’t add up here’ as I hear a manly voice coming out of an avatar with large boobs gradually complain more and more about nazis, google ‘lily orchard kiwifarms’ on a whim and find a thread with 250+ pages of content.
This.
Granted, I've seen a
few videos from their channel before, in the last two months, and I hadn't seen anything that set off any big red flags to me. That said, I only found myself watching a few short videos here and there, as well as their Legend of Korra review, and I don't even remember the shorter videos. It never really occurred to me that they might be a bit "off" until the Steven Universe video.
I mean, there was also the very masculine voice with the female avatar, but that wasn't really a big deal to me. I thought it was ironic at first, and then I sort of assumed from listening that they were Trans, and I didn't really mind or care that much, but I digress.
The Steven Universe video started off pretty decent IMO, with the shit about hiatuses and the varying quality of animation, lack of Pre-Production, etc.; I like the show a lot, but I have really grown a bit critical recently, so I found that video somewhat entertaining at first, but then they started likening the Diamonds to Nazis, calling Sugar & Co. Alt-Right Apologists, and talking about how moderate White people were problematic, and then I looked and noticed that the video wasn't even halfway through, and got the idea that I was in for about two hours of sperging out over imaginary Nazis by a person who was looking a little
too deep into a show meant primarily for younger people.
Sort of funny, though, I knew that Lilly Orchard was heavy into MLP stuff prior to that video, just seeing video titles, but to learn that they're actually reviled by the MLP Fandom at large is sort of funny, in an ironic manner.
