As a note for @oddish, I feel it's important to add to ED a mention of Davis M.J. Aurini's absolute favorite song in the whole world:

Late to the party, but I can't help but mock a jerk who not only drinks apple juice while pretending it's Scotch (just like Cartman in the Tourette's episode), but also pretends he's smoking cigarettes when he's obviously vaping like a hipster douche. Few things funnier than seeing him apply a lighter to his 'smoke' only for it to glow fucking blue.

Not much. When he was friends with Aurini and Aaron Clarey, all he did was echo the same slop they preached to the public, in far less eloquent terms. At least Aurini sounded like a scholar when he talked, even though he wasn't a scholar. Bechtloff talks about geek stuff in his vids, then he turns around and makes the same condemnations of feminism and SJW culture that Aurini and Clarey would make, and it eventually got repetitive. At most, I used Bechtloff's videos as background noise while I shot up Decepticons in War for Cybertron, but at the end, I could have gotten the same by watching old Aurini vids. Now all he does is repeat the same complaints about Catholicism that early Protestants had because now he hates Aurini and Aurini became a Catholic, so he's attacking Catholicism as his roundabout way to attack his old bunk-buddy, which makes his videos even more unbearable. There is nothing that guy does that can't be replicated by someone else. If you want "Manosphere wisdom" go look up Aaron Clarey or Aurini's earlier videos. If you want condemnations of Catholicism, the writings of Luther, Calvin, and Jack Chick can easily be found on the Internet for your viewing pleasure.
Basically, the fact that these manosphere "titans" ended up plotting against each other as if they were all girls in high school goes to show how empty they really were, which is kind of sad. They were all just opportunists who clung on to popular opinions to gain prestige, the same way Sargon of Akkad (Carl Benjamin) and Mundane Matt (Matt Jarbo) did during Gamergate, and now those two are synonymous with epic failure. In those early Gamergate days, I used to actually take Aurini and Bechtloff seriously, until they shut me out because I wasn't supportive of a white ethnostate and I wasn't far right enough. Bechtloff rejected me because I dared to say that MAYBE we should open the immigration gates to Christians in the Middle East who were getting slaughtered, and he acted as if I betrayed his race. Aurini blocked me when I reminded him that no type of government was inherently good or evil, when he decried the very idea of a "one world government" as satanic, mostly because he was a nationalist, I reminded him that the Popes were the first to try and create such a government after the fall of Rome, something every chump who cracked open a book about the Middle Ages would know.
They just became the far-right version of SJWs, which is kinda funny in retrospect. The elements are all there: purity spirals, repetitive messages, and viciously turning on each other the moment they disagree. But looking back at all this, they were just grifters who used a phenomenon (Gamergate) to gain a crowd. Aurini was a tad bit more eloquent, which is why he had more of a following, while Bechtloff was always just his number-two, and he lost his geek following since he himself noted how many of them were Catholics, and he turned against Catholicism just to spite Aurini, so his Catholic followers just left. If they were truly friends, ideological disagreements would be nothing to them. I mean, even I have friends who don't subscribe to my views on politics and religion. But now, they plot against each other in a manner reserved for Littlefinger and Cersei from Game of Thrones, or high school girls. It reminds me of what happened with Matt Jarbo and Carl Benjamin, and how they eventually alienated others on the right like Ethan Ralph and Jim/Mr. Metokur because of their idiotic ways.
This goes to show everyone one important lesson: the enemy of your enemies won't always be your friends. Especially since they can become something even worse or more cringier than the enemies you originally fought.

The funniest thing about Davis Aurini is how totally unaware he appears to be about how incredibly gay he sounds. Whenever he used to do one of his moralizing YouTube rants about "degenerates", all I could think of was how much he sounded like some catty fashion correspondent making disparaging remarks about a celebrity's red carpet outfit. It's like he fits every flamboyantly camp stereotype imaginable, with the singular exception of his political beliefs.
Stanley Tucci would look like Jason Statham next to Aurini.

Stanley Tucci would look like Chuck Norris when compared to Aurini. Heck, I'd pick the aging Chuck over Aurini any day, especially considering Aurini's bad attempt at a martial arts film.

I'm kind of surprised that this thread has focused so much on Aurini. Jordan Owen himself had some painfully cringeworthy episodes. His numerous long pro-porn videos (some of which were over an hour) were among the saddest collections of content I've ever encountered on the internet. Those videos mostly seem to be gone, although this one is still up:
www.youtube.com
He's in the process of becoming a born-again Christian (remember he was once a Satanist). In this video, he talks about how the "manosphere"/PUA content has become an obsession for him ever since he encountered it, and how all that stuff is wrong. His admitted obsessive focus on it make me have to wonder how much he truly believes it is wrong, though.

In Owen's defense, he is probably the most self-aware lolcow (former lolcow?) I have encountered.

Jordan Owen just put out a video (now deleted) a few days ago called "Reply to ____" (forget the username), in which he talked about how he has "friends" who have been pestering him to apologize to Sarkeesian, and he actually got to the point of yelling about his frustration when they insist that he has been a bad person for his position on her, but he doesn't understand how. In other words, he is a person with Asperger's Syndrome who has people taking advantage of his compromised mental health in order to abuse him.
If you're reading this, Jordan, those people aren't your friends, they are psychologically abusing you. You need to ditch them. Good luck.

Can't believe there's not a separate thread for Aurini, c'mon kiwi?? Any Aurini fans still here can we get this thread going a bit? Davis is my go to internet guilty pleasure no homo lol. If I ever run out of content to listen to while I'm working, it's always Aurini by default, listening to his sperging out calms me down.
He's wearing a cape now and he changed his name from Davis to Leo. I would argue that he's the top tier lolcow on the entire internet, but for whatever reason he's widely forgotten. Unfair!
Reviving this essential thread for all my Artists Formerly Known As Davis Aurini connoisseurs. I'm posting one of my favorite Aurini videos, I think it represents PEAK Aurini, peak delusion in a subtle - hence classic Aurini way.
It's from his skyscraper era. It has everything a good Aurini video has to have. Opening with "we're in HD now" but kinda humble-bragging about it, "we're in HD now it's no biggie" as if he deserves medal for uploading a HD video hahaha. And then the epic rant about drivers not working, finishing off with the absolute Aurini classic - I used to rebuild mouse drivers.
Any of you aware thatDavis Leo is, quote, "back to his high production videos"? They're more short form type, under 10 minutes, giving you the insight that you need. Unlike his regular long streams, these videos are scripted and have classic Aurini production value! Definite watching. https://www.bitchute.com/channel/leo-mj-aurini/
They're fan-tastic.
Also, I can't find where the hell is my folder with few video clips of his latest long stream awkward moments, when his roommate busts the doors during his epic rant on whatever...I hope I didn't delete those. Hail Leo! He has a new latin sign off phrase now, something in Aurini Latin, traditum something. I'm afraid to read it, maybe it's a devious spell.

Imagine thinking that flea market martial arts weapons and a skull on the bookshelf behind you make you look a mysterious tough guy and not an autistic LARPer.

Aurini's widely forgotten because he's a joke. Him, Bechtloff, Jordan Owen, they're basically a joke that the world forgot about. At most, their pal Aaron Clarey gets some people to pay him to talk about economic matters, but for the rest of them? They're there to be laughed at and forgotten. Many of their old followers look at them with disdain
Classic Aurini was more tolerable than modern cringy Aurini. He was more honest back then and less of a showoff.Reviving this essential thread for all my Artists Formerly Known As Davis Aurini connoisseurs.

A new Latin sign-off phrase. And here I thought he was already at peak showoff levels.
Why does Aurini's long streams remind me too much of Spoony's long playthroughs that have less substance than his older, shorter reviews? A similar pattern for former E-celebs, perhaps?
Well, if he wants to go back to shorter videos, good on him. Let's hope they have more analysis and less cringe.
Grown men with weapon collections keep their weapons at a secluded place that they usually don't show off to the world. I remember one of my uncles having a collection of really nifty blades and weapons, but he's not enough of a showoff to broadcast it to the world.

Arms can be a legitimate item of decor; a family heirloom musket or a dress sword from military service can look tasteful hanging on the wall in the right setting. A pair of $14.95 sai bought from an ad in the back pages of Soldier of Fortune propped on the bookshelf, on the other hand, just make him look like a prat and a tryhard.

Yeah, he's grade A cringe. Aurini once had a video about how 4channers resurrected an elder god. As far as I could tell, it was not an ironic or comedic video, he was dead serious that people on 4chan resurrected an ancient god. That seems like a heretical thing for a Catholic to say, but I'm not a theologian.
The video has a history in the link below (it was hosted on Youtube). Unfortunately, if no one has reuploaded it, one of the internet's most bizarre and remarkable videos is lost forever.

Don't forget Matt Forney, the most dorky and awkward of the whole lot. Aaron Clarey is not as awkward as the others, but I can't help but find him even more off-putting. He comes off as an unbelievably bitter man who wants to drag everyone down to his level.
