For me it’s Skallagrim. This is a channel of a guy who specializes in ancient armory and weaponry, he also reviews swords and stuff that’s sold online and tests them. Pretty cool.

But then I started to not like him for some reason and it took me a while to put my finger on it. Until I saw the video where he tried criticizing weapons in video games. Then that was where I found problems with him as a channel.

His personality comes off very pretentious and one of those pseudointellectuals you know, who try sounding smarter than they really are. He even has the voice tone to back that with.

So yeah I really once loved his channel. Though whenever he goes on tirades about things that are meant for fantasy purposes which aren’t supposed to make sense when translated to reality, as well as try to poke at fictitious things that borrow from ancient history, I feel he misses the plot of his entire channel and why people like me once subscribed to it.

We didn’t subscribe to your channel for your stupid takes on - anything. We subscribed because you seem to know your melee weapons and historical backgrounds of said weaponry. Stick to those.

    i followed this asian talking/joking about news since my college days, they definitely declined and degenerated into magats over the pandemic. apparently it was over a female employer they fire unprofessionally, because she spoke out against them,a bout her pay, and all the drama snowballed from there, the old fans thought everything was going great until that employee posted on her own channel why she been removed from the channel. now they cant stop blaming women for thier own decline. i stopped following thier channel, and only visited the sub about them from then on, like in '23 which reports on thier decline, which they consistently tried to take down multiple times. thier NU Fans are mostly incel asians, and muslims, and Parasocial female fans, it was quite cringe when they actually brought one of the parasocial fans on the channel(read it throught the sub), and HOSTING tulsi gabbard.

    and one of the channel owners as a veneer of progressive streak, but he often lets his libertian/ conservative leak often, it was kept in check until the INCIDENT with women in his channel, he pretends to be pseudointellectual now an anti-intellectual. being the right wingers they are, they are still to loudmouth that youtube buries them in thier algorithm. and yes they are trying to grift from the right, but them being asian and poc makes its very hard to compete white magas.
