So Pink Season, a satire rap album by George Miller, aka Filthy Frank, is somehow topping charts all over the world.
Now I first had the impression that he was an alt-right mascot. But then I listened to a song he made about Trump and it was all making fun of him to my relief.
BUT! I looked more into his character, he's still pretty shitty. Endless mocking of feminists, vegans, animal rights activists are already huge red flags. But what got me the most is the fact that he drops n-bombs regularly (he's half-white, half-Asian).
He also surrounds himself with straight up racist, homophobic, and misogynistic people (so don't tell me he's playing a character) like Idubbbz and Maxmoefoe.
So I then looked into both of those guys, and I was introduced to the world of the commentary community.
Hoooooly shit, the commentary is filled with white men just saying the most homophobic, racist, mysogynistic shit while never facing any reprocussions. These guys are making $100,000-$10 million a year saying things that would get them thrown off any other type f media.
Even fucking Pewdiepie, the largest Youtuber, has changed himself to become a part of this community basically. Just a week ago, he said the N word in a video, got a lot of shit for it, never apologized (I don't think he apologized) and now he's back to making millions.
I think this community is an underrated place where the alt-right is becoming incredibly powerful. Like on 4chan these guys aren't technically being rewarded, but these users are saying the same things and are getting paid a lot.
