I don’t know if you guys know who Hutch is, but I loved his content in the early 2010s. It was mostly COD stuff and I haven’t watched him consistently in years, but I kept the subscription because of how much I liked him as a teenager. In a time when the content was a lot of toxic gamerbro shit, Hutch made genuine videos talking about depression and showing vulnerability and that really spoke to teenage me.
Last month he made a video where he’s switching to only politics stuff now and I stayed subscribed because I don’t watch that much YouTube content anyways and I could forgive him being a liberal demsoc. But teaming up with Destiny is a bridge too far.
I can excuse bad content, but pro-genocide crosses the line.
And I was willing to forgive that too for the nostalgia. But Destiny is too far.
I honestly think I could sit him down and at least pull him to the left on Palestine, but that’s just the parasocial treatbrain talking.
