Sargon amuses me. I disagree with him on most points, but still find his content entertaining for the most part. Thunderf00t is better though, imho.
Because sometimes even national leaders just want to hang out

I used to watch Thunderf00t, but his separation from the skeptics was done dirty and I personally share the opinion it was done disingenuously. I won't discredit him for it though, he did a lot of good work and still does. I just don't really feel like following up with him anymore after seeing the fallout of it all.
Then again, most people in here are probably simmering at the mentioning of you tubers because somehow the medium is the quality and not the arguments or what have you.

Hence why I enjoy watching Sargon. He is generally pretty good all around at providing evidence when it is needed and giving citations, nevermind that he usually just spends his time unravelling other's arguments. I've particularly been enjoying his recent series on Third World cultures. Didn't even know about half that stuff in the first place and only had heard of the rest from generalized statements that made it seem like less of an issue than it actually is.

The Committee for Proletarian Morality now stands as a great bulwark of the toiling classes against the onrushing bourgeois decadence and degeneracy that emanates from the dastardly alt-right, the ostensibly centrist liberalism and quite sadly our own leftist comrades.
Members of the Committee pledge to:
1. Tut disapprovingly at individualist libertine hedonism, and where relevant dismantle it's philosophical premises.
2. Relentlessly disparage furries and their ilk.
3. Say "that's weird", or words to that effect, when people are talking about weird shit.
4. Uphold and promote a rigorous and vitalic proletarian morality, based in the common sense traditions of our class.
We call on all moral comrades of the left to join the committee, and advertise it as I have done in their signature. Together we can overcome degeneracy! For the promotion of proletarian virtue and the prevention of bourgeois vice! Onwards to the final victory!

I already want to split from this.
I shall create a group called, Leftists for Proletarian Degeneracy

No need for a debate on furries. It's all fairly simple: all furries are wonderful... except this one.

It's a demeaning of the human form.
