I watched some of his videos 4 years ago,I went just now to his channel,clicked on a video and the first thing he says is "2020 has not been good,we have a pandemic,increasing racism and police brutality..." I stopped the video and closed it. No one gives a fuck about your political takes,all he does is mention politics now,specially on twitter. Now I see that he made a video where he mocks this,fuck this retard,did this happen after 2016? Trump makes all the leftists shit their pants and REEEE so I imagine that after he got elected he started adding politics to everything because it wasn't like this 4 years ago.
EDIT: I wanted to add something,its a little theory I have on why content creators lean so much to the left on the internet. I'm not saying Jim is lying about being a leftist but haven't you noticed that people that were right wing or at least centrist went full leftist? I think that is because they know it makes more money,think about it,who are he people that use the internet way too much? People that live in a metropolis. What are the politics of the people that live in a metropolis? overwhelmingly leftist with a special emphasis on feminist shit,troon shit and gay shit,etc.
Think about it,people from smaller states are not like that,not even people that live in the capital of that state or at least nowhere near the same degree when it comes to politics and how much they use the internet(they use the internet less and are more right wing),also you need to add that people that have these retarded leftist gender identity and racial politics are almost always young,I remember watching a poll that show that old black people in the US(over 65)vote almost 50/50 when it comes to republican vs democrat but if you look at blacks aged 18-30 it was almost 90% vote democrat.Another example of this gender,sexuality stuff being more prevalent in big cities(where they use the internet more) is a study that was on my Gmail about gay marriage here in Argentina,in the independent territory that is the 10 kilometers right in the center of Buenos Aires called Capital Federal you have like 40 to 70 more gay marriage than in small states where the capital of those states is a 5 kilometers circle at most and barely has more than 100k people living in them.
As I said I'm not saying he is not being honest about his politics but if you look at his patreon its way up to what it used to be,for all the reasons I gave above I think that content creators on the internet turn leftist or include leftist shit in their content,people that use youtube or twitch are all young people,the majority of them live in big cities and people who are young and live in a metropolis are overwhelmingly leftists into gender and racial shit.
Hbomberguy used to be a troll and then he started doing anti-anti-sjw videos,destiny was a libertarian and now is all for this shit(and is super popular),even people like Sargon of Akkad might not be into identity politics but he is still a leftist when it comes to economics,I think that in most cases they know this at least at a subconscious level. Also right wingers are muuuch less popular than leftists if you compare the numbers,almost everyone that is popular is a:
A- centrist that likes capitalism done like sweden and is not into identity politics
B- A leftist that likes capitalism and is into identity politics
C- A leftist into socialism and identity politics
I guess this is because right wing people are not young or on the internet that much. If you think I'm wrong let me know.
