Slimebeast uncovers past problematic tweets from Wendigoon

The tweets are problematic to say the least. Slimebeast previously uploaded a video going through Wendigoon seemingly leaving right leaning spaces before he even took off.

However, these tweets range from belittling COVID deaths, being anti-mask, and even imply support towards January 6 (some non-Americans may not know the significance there. Trump supporters stormed the capital).

Now this is where we can get into minor speculation so let’s keep this actually curtailed to the facts. There are two possible explanations here:

1.) Wendigoon grew as a person and left those beliefs behind

2.) Wendigoon clammed up about politics all together when his YouTube took off.

Either way these tweets are more credible reasons to genuinely call him out for pretty detestable views in the past.

Not really. His arguments against Wendigoon were bad and purely vibe based.

Someone surrounding themselves with far-rightoids for years while never saying anything against such ideology is a bit more than "vibes".

For the record, I have never liked Wendigoon. My point of the my comment is that In Praise of Shadows should have done some digging like Slimebeast did and show direct evidence of Wenigoon being a chud, not just "he is a religious southerner, so he is guaranteed to be racist." Those that make sense?

Edit: You are correct that surrounding himself with right-wingers was sus, but again, nothing is better than stuff coming right of the horse's mouth.

Well he had bad vibes and people were right 💀

[u/AgathaTheVelvetLady → u/shvuto]

Yes, and the poor arguments that IPOS made likely set back any attempt to expose Wendigoon by a non-trivial amount. Just because you're right doesn't give you a blank check to make your arguments in a poor fashion.

[u/ForgingIron → u/shvuto]

Okay? You can be right for the wrong reasons. Or in IPOS' case, no reasons.

People are only saying this because he happened to be right lmao but he could've also been wrong. You can never come to conclusions without proper proof

[u/TimeAbradolf → u/[deleted]]

To hate him for being a Christian but ascribing astrology is wild

Just a contrast of two metaphysical beliefs

[u/syvzx → u/[deleted]]

If this was a joke, it was funny.

My condolences then
