I support ethnonationalism for all people because I believe diversity is an overall negative for society. The simple idea is that you wouldn't have problems with racism, racial tensions, or racial equality if you didn't actively try to desegregate people and force them into cities.

Many YouTubers have learned that being vague about their actual beliefs and stances gets rewarded.

@FROG , for example, clashed with Doug TenNapel because Doug is anti-LGBT.
EVS loves talking about how lame woke media is, but is he really opposed to someone for being anti-LGBT?
The Frog himself is woke, and I don't even know if he is less woke than ContraPoints.
He buddies up to a pedophile and works with complete degenerates. Based on his actions, I would call him left-wing and progressive.

You can dislike Doug for the retarded things he does, but at least he has some principles.

I think you can cut EJ more slack for his association with the vomit porn woman because he portrays himself as a libertarian capitalist.
He seem to hold rather strong believes (for a YouTuber) regarding his libertarianism.

With most of these culture warriors, culture critics, and anti-woke content creators, you couldn't tell what they really believe, which is why EVS fit in perfectly with them at first. It's his poor character that made him an outsider.

Another reason to have more respect for EJ than EVS.

You sound like a perfect recruit for the Ukrainian army.

So... he's just going to make his comic by cutting and pasting stuff from other peoples comics to make something that looks like this, huh?
 
Zack occasionally has good ideas but in my opinion he never executes them in a remotely satisfying way.

The Expendables Go To Hell should have been a fun romp but ended up being a very dull and uninventive story that just kind of meandered and didn't take full advantage of the fact that in a comic book there are no budget limitations and you can let your imagination run wild.

The idea he had about an immortal person (a vampire?) being "canceled" in modern times for something they did during like the crusades or as part of a Mongol invasion, I think it was going to be called "Is This You?", I think that's an interesting enough jumping off point for what could potentially be a good story but Zack isn't thoughtful or intelligent enough to make that concept work. to be fair though I've never read the final story if it ever came out.

Zack would have been better off kind of as a producer, hiring other writers to execute his ideas, while he goes back to just hanging out in the background of porn scenes while his girlfriend eats other dudes jizz.
 
Such as shame that the trauma of Eric’s newest success is going to cause EVS’s and Vito’s comics to be delayed yet another year so they can properly recover.

I checked his igg's update page and he seems to have introduced yet another variant cover to help him boost his numbers. Strange thing to do, since I remember him shitting on marvel and dc for putting out so many variant covers for just 1 issue, saying that they're relying too much on the collectors market than the reader's market (on why they're shrinking). He also shat on july for lowering the price of his comics saying that it makes it worthless for the collectors. Strange thing to say for someone who wanted to rebuild the comics industry; he has done a complete 180.

I'm guessing he's going to use AI generated images as the "digital mock ups". And he will claim that the use of the characters falls under fair use.

I watched his video where he explains the concept. I'm guessing he didn't bother to consult an IP lawyer because here's the gist of what he's said: He knows he's in extremely dodgy territory, so he's decided to do several things to "protect himself."

1. He plans to start with the cover or page he plans to use and hopes to get "fair use" protection.
2. He plans to make changes to these covers by making a collage with random panels from the comics. He'll use this to make his project "transformative."
4. He'll add stupid jokes to get "satire and parody protection."
5. He'll make sure to cover up logos and trademarks, because he knows those are trouble.

I hope Marvel and DC send him a cease and desist, just to see his reaction. Then watch him stubbornly go forward with the project anyway because he's a sovereign citizen like those guys who don't have a driver's license but hand the cop a laminated pocket copy of the Bill of Rights when they get pulled over. They might not bother of course, but I wonder if they can risk letting a retarded person use their characters in a comic without stopping him.

Here's a (mercifully) short clip in his own words:

Nothing he does makes any sense.

"Should I keep making comics my fans wanted? Nah. Let's instead make a comic that's potentially in violation of proprietary copyright, because lol so random."

You're not Andy Warhol, Zack.

It seems he's coping on trashcast. Cyberforg 3 managed to get out of the 668k slum to 770k.

According to the updates, he added a temporary variant cover a couple weeks ago. And a few days ago he added a blue Trump variant cover. And I guess once he hits $800,000 he'll be adding a car.

Of course, the blue one is just a recoloring of the green one someone did (maybe Narwhal) last year on a stream for Eric Weathers. And someone mentioned there is also a red one.

Two things I'd bring up:

The android David was what damaged the Alien IP, and idiots he went up against, some of the most stupid fools I've seen in sci-fi movies.

As for Zack, I think a lot of this comes from being pressed over the election and worrying he won't get to enjoy movies he likes. He's so afraid an idiot like Quaterpunder will cost Donald Trump the election, no if Trump loses, it will be because the masses want the, what is it now? 4th Obama term. These Fandom Grift idiots have no imprint on the election. Its crazy talk.
