sry sweatie the britbong video was too long and he's associated with a CRINGE subgenre so here's me screaming for several replies on why it's bad actually
"people told me I was a part of something called breadtube and also fuck you for it"

@[email protected] you should probably add to the body of your post the context that this guy isn't stealing from daily mail articles and corporate slop, hes stealing the work of queer people, some of whom died in obscurity most of whom are not well off
Sorry, the title is ironic, I gave for granted that everyone saw the video, or at least a sinopsis of it.
sinopsis
I had a chuckle thinking about a synopsis of a 4hr hbomb video delivered by the Chinese Foreign Ministry.
:kelly:
All I know about that Somerton guy is that he is very horny for nazis.
Oh for fuck sakes
He argued that the reason so many Americans joined up to fight in the western front was to get a glimpse of those shirtless ubermensch they'd be fighting against. Never mind that the Germans were getting really rough by the time the USA showed up in the western front and also most US soldiers were drafted, and also you couldn't pick the front you'd fight in. And that the US bodybuilder movement comes from trying to create their own gorgeous muscular bodies to emulate the Germans.
He also said Americans didn't get horny for Soviet men the same way because they all wore thick coats all the time. The Soviets. The world champions in broadcasting oiled up, muscular athletes doing feats of strength and dexterity.

I have photographic evidence to the contrary
Damn, what they eating? Looks good for military rations.
iirc this photo was taken soon after the end of the war so it would be a celebration dinner
it's the actually good version of the nurse photo
Also reinforced the "asian men aren't masculine" trope.
Also when questioned, the co-writer revealed that he just made all this up with no source.

This is how you know someone hasn't watched Olympic weightlifting in a long time.
Todd in the Shadows... A goddamn music critic also did a Somertin take down, more of a "Here are the facts he got straight up wrong" video. One of them was "Hitler didn't kill Ernest Rohm because he was gay... It's because he was fat!"
He is also pretty misogynistic
sorry but he wasn't able to convince me. maybe if the video was 6 hours or 8 hours. 4 hours just is not long enough to make a convincing argument.
Hahahahah is this what it's actually about? I haven't bothered to watch the four fucking hour video of some people i've never heard about yelling at each other but friends seem to think it was entertaining.

Its actually quite fucked, dude is steamrolling over actual queer writers and thinkers, many of whom are dead or languishing in obscurity, guy is a fuckhead
I enjoyed it. It's rambling in terms of the overall thesis, but everything he says does have a purpose (that might not help the thesis but still means something).
It could have been a 30 minute expose, but instead, he pulled out a folder full of receipts and just started reading them verbatim into the camera.
I identify with the plagiarism YouTuber. I also don't care about my job and see it as just a paycheck too so I do the bare minimum to make money. Like, unitonically, that's the system we have that incentivizes us to do the least work to get paid. I'll reserve my ire for cops and landlords, not some YouTuber who is ruining the sacred art form of YouTube content by phoning it in to get paid.
Edit: I think I see what the problem is. I only watched the part about the pyramid head cartoon plagiarizing articles, I didn't even see anything about the other guy.
Plagiarizing much poorer queer authors while holding up a pretense of original research and further misinforming people when you speak off script because you don't actually do any research is bad. Dude could literally just not fuck over poorer authors writing articles on blogs and such and he'd still get plenty of money.

Exactly. Making stacks off other people's work is antithetical of the whole leftie wave we are all on. We are suppose to be openly collaborating, sharing, exchanging, coordinating, all that sort of cool stuff together. Not just private making bank and saying "I did it all myself because I"m very uniquely intelligent"
I'm trying to articulate what is arguably an even softer point politically because it to me is a stronger indictment: He could remain a full-on content mill that is just profiting off of other people's work, but give them proper credit! He'd lose some of his personal mystique, but he'd still make a lot of money while still being incredibly lazy but without fucking those other authors over!
It's settled then. I'm going to commission a Kitty Bobo vtuber model and start making videos where I just read out effort posts from Hexbear and pretend they're my own words. It's the perfect crime. 😼
the guy's not just getting a paycheck, he's doing pretty well and even founded a (Star Citizen-esque) movie production company, all while lifting his content from marginalized authors that often struggle financially themselves (or are dead, in some cases)
He is erasing queer history and substituting in reactionary daydreams as factual history, its destructive and fucked up, you should care

I understand where you're coming from, however I still think it's probably uncool to bite off the work of others, especially when they themselves aren't getting paid let alone being recognized for their work. Don't get me wrong I'm 420.69% all for slacking on the job and doing the most you can to figure out how to do the least you can and still get paid, get your money. However, when I think it's a slimeball move to swipe the work of other workers.
Writers and "CONTENT CREATORS®©™" are workers, and it seems like the leftie-thing to do is not jack their shit. Stealing from your boss, the professional managerial-class, MEGACORPS, all that sort of stuff is sexy and cool. Stealing the work of other katz who are just trying to make it as well seems kinda wack to me.
Especially when things like writing which is actually transformed by the person doing it. I don't know the Marxist term or whatever, but it seems like actual work and labor going into forming ideas and getting those ideas out into the world.
I hope I don't come as a scold or a buzzkill. Not my intention at all.
Yeah, I see what you mean.
The moral here is that you should steal the plagiarist's videos and pass them off as your own.
Did you watch the thing? I gotta say that you sound to me like someone whose going off of summary and here say and honestly if you haven’t seen it I encourage you to because it is hard to grasp from summary how insidious the behavior he exposes really is. It is certainly lazy but it’s also very exploitative, particularly to obscure queer historians and writers
