     I haven't watched as much of him lately as I used to. I kind of wish he'd talk less about politics and go back to more of responding to SJW cringe.

     I doubt any of them have actually ever watched one of his videos.

I actually got into politics more than a half decade ago partially because of his videos so yeah, I've seen plenty of his videos. Anyway, he's a disgusting rape sympathizer who is certainly a sexist:

Also, on Reddit, he made a joke about how he wanted to rape a specific Reddit user, who turned out to be an actual rape victim. When he was called out for being insensitive to people with PTSD, he "posted further graphic descriptions of how he would rape her again in a deliberate attempt to make her relive her trauma." according to his Wikipedia page.

     I mean he does have a point about "rape survivor" not being the best use of "survivor", although he makes it in a grossly insensitive manner. Rape is definitely a horrible thing to happen to someone and his point is a minor point for anyone to be making (though what he refers to falls into a typically left-wing pattern of redefining words to further a narrative), but rape != murder.

     As for the latter, joking about raping someone is messed up. I'm against the imposition of limits on humor as a matter of course, and from that perspective it seems to me the issue as before is more that he's insensitive (which I don't think anyone, including him, would deny) than that he's a sexist.

TAA's political commentary on this election has been terrible. I haven't even listened to his podcast in a month or so, which is probably the longest I've put off listening to it since I started like two years ago. The "Clinton is just as bad as Trump" false equivalencies and various alt-right pandering has really put me off.

     As I said above, I wish he'd talk less about politics. Speaking as someone who is on the conservative side of the spectrum and should be far more receptive to that kind of message, it's still just weak content.
