Although tbh at what point does he no longer get the benefit of the doubt Probably when he paid some dudes to make a poster saying "Kill all Jews" and then showed it on video. I've looked into this claim. It's true, but it was something he never actually meant to happen. He just wanted to say something so horrible that they would reject it, but they barely even understood what they were told to write, and pdp clearly did not expect that result. I'll go out on a limb and say that his alt right fanbase does come from this stunt and his using a racial slur in an angry outburst at a videogame, but it's incidental. Hell, why even call it alt right, though? What lack of overlap is there? On the venn diagram, I see only one circle. Don't make justifications for people pushing hate speech. He could've easily censored it and just react to it. He didn't. He knows his audience is mostly 13 year olds. --- The force is my ally "If you are tired of fear from links...
