      A youtuber who was relatively popular with enlightened centerists around 2019. Links so you can look on and cringe:

      • A video where he regurgitates right-wing talking points directed at his cat in the name of “satire”
      • An actually funny video about top 10 lists
      • The video that made his channel really take off
      • “Should we dehumanize our political opponents?”
      • Man-made satire beyond mortal comprehension.

      He also would attend rallies and spout political gibberist

        jreg is pretty based i think. His content is satire, for sure. A lot of his recent stuff has been delving into more philosophical shit though.

        Dude literally doxxed himself and asked people to kill him (in lore)

          I was a big fan of jreg pre-2020, but after giving up mainstream social media I currently believe that only cowards, frauds, and master satirists feel the need to use irony. It’s arrogant to think you are the third, and I dont think Jreg is either. I think he is a coward.

            ah, i think you should catch up a little bit on jreg then. He’s had a similar story arc lmao.

            He’s “unironically Jregular now”

        He’s actually leftist I think, and was parodying centrists too

          If I remember his coming out video, he’s a Democratic Socialist. Which, if the political compass made sense, would be just right of center. But I guess thinking people deserve rights is inherently left-wing to Americans lol

      jreg is a youtube who (ironically?) claims to be anti-centrist, meaning taking an extreme stance on everything, regardless of which extreme.
