Philosophy Tube is some kind of chocolate and cherries combination. Guru Larry is birthday cake flavor (this is a thing in the states). Shaun is like something mint with broken-up cookies mixed in.

Shaun is the oboe, whereas Hbomb is more like a violin played by someone who can go from lyrical legato passages to a blazing pizzicato on a dime. Contra is a clarinet, ReportOfTheWeek is an accordion, Kyle Kallgren is the timpani, and Philosophy Tube Olly is the cello. Jon Bois is an alto saxophone, MrBTongue is a trombone, and Adam Neely is... French Horn? I was a woodwind, the brass section all sort of blurs together.

Donoteat is a socialist bassoon.

Does anyone remember back in the old days when there was just a handful of ice cream flavors? I never tried this one myself but along with Doug Walker Dogshit(surprisingly popular) there was the Confused Matthew flavor. Anyone try that?

Most online ice cream owes what it is to its long old predecessor that made flavoring affordable and gave it mass appeal.

there's so many other dudes on youtube who will talk your ear off about games but few who do deep dives into 286 machines or histories about important computer companies that went under before any of us were ever born. i vastly prefer his non-game stuff.

It’s hilarious how far Milo Yiannopolis has been push to the margins. Less relevant in 2018 than the Wife with a Purpose, who went full nazi a year or two ago.

lol @ Destiny and Rogan ending up being on there (I guess because Destiny usually goes on to have a debate and disagree with a bunch of these people/Rogan gets them on and disagrees with them)

lol also at the great black hole of Andy Warski who pretty much didn't care who he had on the Internet Bloodsports streams when he was doing them - it'd just be a constant shitfire featuring so many of these people (JF Gariepy being the main one, the incredibly creepy man pulling the strings and essentially taking over the channel...uuugggh, he might be the worst person in that whole diagram actually, he gives me the creeps)

There's probably a few others who don't exactly belong along with all the usual names - the clout-chasers, the guys who are only really interested in doing this for drama/money and will happily argue any political view for it (see most any "major" name on there who's like, been on television and what have you) and the actual alt-right figures.

I kinda wonder if this is all just shining a further light on the actual dangerous people there that's gonna do more harm than good though

(NOTE: being on the "margins", from what I can see, only means that some folk just don't appear on these discussions all that much, as opposed to being a meter of their actual relevance. You rarely find Milo/PJW/Cernovich on other people's streams whcih is how folks end up in/near the centre of that. Where would ol' Alex have fitted in?)

Destiny "debating" Nazis only serves to give Nazis a platform - if it was actually harming their fascist cause, the Nazis wouldn't "debate" him.

But most of the time he debates these arseholes on their platforms as opposed to his. Sure he's had a few (the JonTron debate being the big 'un) but usually I saw him a lot on the IBS streams and what have you (how effective was that? Well, the IBS streams were/are a clusterfuck and it would usually end up being a big pile-on on Destiny so...yeah).

EDIT: eeehhh ok, he's had a fair bunch of them on the channel for THE DEBATES. But still, he is more than a little bit progressive and clearly in opposition to these people. He's not even a classical liberal or an enlightened centrist who does the whole Dave Rubin thing. Maybe his inclusion is subtly throwing shade at his debating performance?

I wouldn’t say Rogan gives them a hard time as much as he’s a credulous low-information blowhard who just nods along with insane poo poo like when Peterson’s air-slowly-leaking-from-a-stale-balloon voice confesses that he hasn’t slept for a month from cider doom. He believes in like crystals and aliens and poo poo too, so scientific racism isn’t really outside the realm of what he’d consider.
