even if they use research, they don't truly understand it or take the time to contact someone who know to comprehend what is going on.
Exactly. If Riley and Xanderpig are really about the science, why don't they debate
these people? They won't because BreadTubers are full of shit. Because they are not about the science, they're about cherrypicking studies that support their positions.
But what I hate is how when they try to use actual facts they do it like idiots, I once saw Shaun and Sargon go at each other reading a scientific paper about statistics I think, and they read it as if it was gospel without knowing anything about the math behind statistics, or the way the paper was made, or the scientific method, they just arrived at their own conclusions throught their biases.
Yeah, this anecdote is a great example of the cherrypicking I referred to above.
He made a video back in the day in which he explores why Milo Yiannopoulos was so popular compared to people like Anita Sarkeessian
That was the
For Whom The Belle Trolls video. And thanks to
@Contrapoints Archive you can still watch Nyk's Milo Yiannopoulos video (now highly ironic in retrospect) here:
"Snaky!", said the snake as he swallowed his own tail and choked:
There's a new ContraPoints video out, and
this is how I feel about it.
Yes, it's the part from RuPaul's Drag Race of drag queen Willam throwing up from the side of the stage.
Youtube's "queen" made how many videos in this year, four or five? + This video is not more than 23 minutes long, whereas in his best days his videos were at least 30 minutes (and often longer).
Speaking of which, here's a post I found by Beige (the guy who did the
Dragnet commentary video, which you should definitely go and watch if you're new to this thread, a lot of prior discussions and infoz that were shared here in the thread went into that video) where he was talking about Nyk making less and less video a year ago, and quoted from Nyk's Patreon page where he promised to his backers to release at least a video a month:
Can we finally start calling Nyk a fraud since he didn't keep his original promise to his Patreon backers to release a video a month, and has effectively been leeching funds off of them in exchange for less and less content?
01.30: Talks about how he was a Bernie Sanders supporter (Nothing says working class more than being a rich troon on YouTube) and wished to be more vocal about it.
As Liz pointed out in the comment below, Nyk was going to do a Livestream interview with Bernie Sanders at his office which Nyk was going to feature on his Youtube channel, which interview only got cancelled when Bernie dropped out of the race. OK, so interview never materialized, but indeed, how much more obvious can you get about your endorsement of a specific presidential candidate than Livestreaming an IRL interview with them?
"America is so great even the floor is made out of poison!" Again Nyk, how much money do you make a year?
I am guessing this comment about
"the floor being made out of poison" is meant to be some kind of a poetic a reference to fracking?
Fracking was already happening looong before Donald Trump.
At least democratization didn't end well in my mother's former homeland Yugoslavia
But you see, your mom experienced Balkanization first-hand, so she know how horrible it is for a country to split up through civil war. A lot of these far left insurrectionists with whom Nyk is interacting behind the scenes - while disavowing any overt association - sincerely want the United States to Balkanize through a civil war. They want the West and East coasts to break off from the union and become a separate countries. This has long been a dream of theirs. They pretend to be peaceful while secretly dreaming of and preparing for an American "Balkan War".
I'd even speculate he may have been forwarded a fat check/put up to it by some establishment linked politics types (remember Hill Dawgs meme team anyone?) who see Nyk as a 'less radical' political youtuber that can swing votes.
Oh, I would not be at all surprised if
Briahna Gray and Nyk exchanged money while arranging for the Bernie Sanders interview. It's not like Nyk would ever agree to do something like that for free. He's a fucking Youtube millionaire but he openly admitted on a Livestream that he still demands speaker fees from universities and colleges to appear. He doesn't need that money of course, he's only demanding money from these institutions to stroke his ego.
I cannot stand watching Contra videos anymore due to the fact his voice sounds like nails on a chalkboard and his condescending tone.
LMAO, this comment reminded me of
that one time Nyk was asked for resources for VF (vocal feminization) when he literally has the shittiest fakest cringiest voice on Youtube. He went on to describe his vocal training and it's crazy making just to listen to him describing all the crap he put himself through just to make his voice sound unlistenable. He also said he ended up deciding he didn't like the way it sounded after he did the Incels video and the Aesthetic video. (No shit genius.)
An Anon posts Nyk and Jenny Nicolson's roller coaster pic. Hilarity ensues.
OMG, seeing that picture again of Nyk and Jenny in the roller coaster reminded me of this hilarious German expressionist horror film poster that someone had posted to 4chan using Nyk's horrifying facial expression in that picture:
I think "Der Hon" would make for an excellent neo-expressionist horror movie. Nyk should get off his lazy ass and make it.
BTW, the old ContraPoints threads on 4chan were some of the best online commedy ever produced about a famous Youtuber. I should go a compilation for those of you who didn't get to read them back when these threads were a regular occurence back in 2017-2018.
Not gonna lie, I’m kinda hoping this is is Nyksysnottrans true identity
Nope, that's definitely not me. You will not find me anywhere on Youtube because I don't even have a Youtube account. I used to have one but I deleted it a decade ago, and when I tried to open one up some years ago Google demanded my smartphone number which I definitely do not want to give to Google (or any big tech company) so they can track me everywhere 24/7. People here on KF have asked me repeatedly to make a Youtube channel and post videos there about Nyk, but unlike Nyk I don't live online, I actually have a life and IRL obligations AFK. I've long felt that Youtube is mainly for young people with a lot of spare time on their hands to make videos and promote their channels, not for busy midlifers with families and jobs and bills to pay. Youtube can be entertaining, usually in a scary sort of way (as amply documented on this forum), but I definitely don't want to get active on any platform that is 1) designed to be a time-suck and 2) associated with Google. Not gonna lie, I am glad the Google technocrats are finally being criminally indicted by the DoJ and I do hope they're broken up this time instead of being allowed once again to pay their way around any real consequences to themselves while they continue to destroy the internet. Even if I did have more time to get active online,
I definitely would not give Google more control over my internet experience than they already have through their big tech monopoly. Also, in the future please do not post any questions aimed at me here in the ContraPoints thread but only on my personal wall or send me a DM. I usually block people who ask me personal questions in the thread because they tend to be off-topic and end up derailing the discussion.
