I'll keep this fairly short and non snarky. I'm not going to give a trigger warning, but if you are a huge fan of JonTron there is going to be some comments here you wont like, just a heads up.

So just a bit of background, I'm only mildly familiar with jontron, I started watching Game Grumps just around a month before he left and I wasn't really familiar with much of his work outside of that, so I was never a huge fan but what I did see from him I thought was quite funny, he seems to understand comedy and video games quite well.

Fast forward to now and there have been two videos that basically reveal he has some very troubling views about race, nationalism and the state of american culture in general.

It started with a conversation with a popular LINO (liberal in name only) Sargon Of Akkad on his livestream where he sort of started ranting quite heavily with traces of some white nationalist views.

And then after spouting some very odd views to live streamer destiny, they got in a debate which REALLY exposed his views.

Here are some of the quotes




[i]1  Wealthy blacks also commit more crime than poor whites, that's a fact.

2  What is so offensive about white people saying they'd like to preserve their demographic majority?

3  It's clear that whites are not allowed to speak up against their demographic um... oblivion.

4  Do you consider the european colonisation of Africa a bad thing? (Destiny replies that it's complicated). It's only complicated because it's whites.

5  When white people are aggressed against in their own nations by people that are not white, they are told constantly, check your privilege. You colonised us, you owe us this land blah blah blah.

6 We've gotten rid of discrimination in our western countries. If you don't think we've gotten rid of discrimination, you're living in a fantasy land.

7 But if they assimilated they would enter the gene pool eventually...[/i]


Now apart from 7 none of these quotes are [b]explicitly[/b] racist but it all points in the direction of white nationalist talking points. Now if you listen to the debate it seems like he has come upon this info fairly recently and possibly hasnt thought it through.

My theory is that hes went down some odd slippery slope that probably started with something mild like gamergate which lead to Mens Rights, Right Libertarianism, 'Redpill' Western Supremacy, /pol/ boards and then probably some sort of alt right persuasion. 

Do I think hes racist? Honestly I dont know, I think hes been fed some shoddy info and hes lapped it up pretty whole and maybe he needs some more challenges to his worldview, but being as popular as he is I don't know if he is going to get that wake-up call.
