    Oh god. This reminds of that “leftist” former right wing YouTuber that was trying to normalize “tactical nukes” in the Ukraine war a few years back. I forget his name. But that shit was insane. He was getting some spotlight for “leaving the right” and then really made it clear he hadn’t.

    I’ll try to find it.

        Yep. That’s the name. But no luck finding the video. I just remember watching it and being like “yeah, maybe this guy has some good jabs at Elon Musk but I think I’m done watching with the ‘nukes aren’t that bad’ take”

          I don’t think it was a video, I remember he made a post about this, maybe a youtube community thing or perhaps I saw it on twitter. He actually wrote an entire lengthy explanation, and didn’t stop to think “WTF am I saying” before hitting publish, which is arguably worse than a video.

            Ah. I think you’re right. I was a community post. He also posted a LOTR meme about “fighting alongside Nazis” unironically.
