It's so funny how Nick and his sycophants are going after Patrick because of his "bad optics" from running IE. and AIM (which Nick would encourage his viewers to join whenever someone superchatted him asking how to get involved with IRL activism). Almost everyone involved with AF has 10x worse optics than Patrick has ever had. I think maybe Jaden (fag) and Jake Lloyd are the only ones who don't have an explicitly alt-right past.
-Millenial Matt, who is one of the Groyper Generals, was a tiki torch marcher at Charlottesville. Theres also pictures and videos of him in front of a swastika flag. Nick praises this guy and recently called him a savant. Great optics
-Simon: Nicks web dev, also participated in the Charlottesville tiki torch march. This guy also allegedly groomed his now-wife according to someone a few pages back. After his wife had their baby, he posted a video montage detailing their relationship from before they met, up until her having their child. It was a video set to a Kanye West song, and he included screenshots of violent messages from her dad where he was threatening to kill Simon for being with his daughter. This guy also says you are not allowed to criticize Nick, and had some cringe tweet where he was like "Nobody gets to criticize the King. Nobody would be here if it weren't for him", in reference to Nick.
-Beardson: Where do you even begin with this guy, I mean theres years worth of shit you could talk about. Although he wasn't at C-ville or anything like that, there are years of tweets and clips from The Weekly Sweat of him saying incredibly "unoptical" things, far worse than anything Patrick has ever said. This guy is Nicks biggest liability.
-Jaden essentially ruined any future career prospects by trying to be an edgelord. If you google his name, every result is calling him the "racist k-state student". Nick always tells people if you wanna get involved, take over your local GOP or colleges TPUSA and infiltrate. I don't know why Jaden was incessant on becoming a part of AF, he ruined his life for 300 viewers on some obscure streaming platform. All the George floyd jokes, the tweets about blacks etc... This is all "unoptical" - far worse than anything Patrick has said.
-Nick himself is horrible optics. He was at Charlottesville, was on streams with Patrick little and plenty of other alt-right types. Theres like a million clips from his show that are "Bad optics" - all the holocaust stuff, all the recent stuff about political violence. I almost think he tried to get banned on purpose for some reason because his rhetoric during stop the steal and after the January 6th has been so reckless. On his last stream before he was banned, he literally said when he heard Trump was banned from twitter, "he wanted to take his g** and go out and do something stupid" or something along those lines. Idk what he's been thinking the past few months but he's saying shit that would be 100% used against him if he is actually under FBI investigation.
