I just think it's pretty cool that Felix, who has never really mentioned anything Linux before, chose to go with a Linux distro for the PC he put together.

the streaming in an SS uniform and paying people on fiverr to hold up signs saying "death to all jews", probably

You don't know what you are talking about. He never wore a Nazi uniform and that Fiverr thing was a joke. He tried to see what would be the most horrible thing a Fiverr would so.

i don't care what he says the intentions were, just like i don't care what Elon and Bannon's intentions were with their "unfortunate gestures". a normal human being would never have thought to do that. the intentions don't matter, only the actions.

the streaming in an SS uniform […]

Do you have a source?

This I see the points. Im sure they were clickbait edgy “jokes” but ofcourse someone with such a huge following should not be making these kinds of references. Thanks for the info!

i posted in another thread that got removed that really the important takeaway from what happened is that as he and his audience radicalized eachother. the people who didn't want to see the edgy stuff left, and he made no effort to distance himself from it at the time, so more edgy people started following him. in the end you had what the in-group saw as edgy humour while the rest of the world saw nazi shit. and like the "layers of irony" thing that 4chan had going a few years ago, what the in-group thinks its projecting doesn't matter.

Yeah, i stopped watching him for a number of hears when the edgy-ness was in full force. I enjoy his recent content since he has settled down in Japan, but I wont forget the dark years.

Im pretty sure you are referring to him wearing a british military uniform. Also he did not have anyone say death to all jews. Provide source and I will correct this though.
