Post the names of youtubers and other internet microcelebs you hate with a burning passion based on vibes alone. I am aware that youtubers are an inherently reactionary group of organisms ^[it-is-known ], but some suck at statistically significant levels.

MadSeasonShow. I don't actually hate him, but it's funny how brainworms work their way into otherwise "normal" people.

He usually covers WoW, but he did a RuneScape series and he was walking around the farmland with peasant NPCs, and he says they have a collectivist society, and just like communist countries in real life, they're all poor and starving.

And I'm like, dude, they're clearly using a feudalist mode of production. They're literally peasants.

This reads like a Monty Python bit

I don't know why but I'm reminded of that "lady of the lake" thing

This quote specifically (I went and found it to see why it tickled my brain)

Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

Wasn't there some drama with that guy where he called some other dude (I think PatricianTV) a cuck and that guy accused him back of plagiarism? It sounded so stupid and turned me off of both of them just by hearing they were involved in any sort of 'drama' at all lol.

I hate that I am even vaguely aware of something like this. None of these people matter.

Didn't hear about that but totally sounds like something he'd say
