i don't even know what the video is about, i just know it's 4 hours long and therefore should be irrelevant to literally everyone. also youtube is not the academy, who gives a fuck lol

who gives a fuck? the queer writers whose work was stolen and pumped out as shitty content farm video essays for a greasy misogynistic nazi fucker

look i understand four hours is a lot but that is just the amount of shit this asshole has churned out.

Lol people were getting pissed at me for suggesting that when the video was first posted. Idk why people care if you don't wanna watch something that long don't.

Marxism is the ruthless criticism of all that exists. Plagiarism isn't bad for academic reasons, but because it exploits the labor of vulnerable people and is a basis for spreading misinformation.

It's a long video, yes, but it's primarily a video about one of the largest queer creators on YouTube stealing from smaller queer creators, erasing their contribution to media and literary critique while simultaneously positioning himself as King Queer.

I know it's a meme to laugh about internet drama and be contrarian and popular media here, but in this case, it's a valid subject.

H bomber guy is one of the better YouTubers out there. He seems to really make his videos out of passion on the topic he going on about, and not just for profit.

It's a worthwhile listen, play it in the background while doing something else.
