are we sure that James Somerton is even his original name or did he steal that too

tbh I'd never heard of the guy before the video.

I think hbomb might have erased him from the timestream

fucking sobbing tbh

I'd watched and enjoyed many of his videos, which is why I'm so mad
A Grinning DM
I enjoyed a couple of his videos because YouTube recced him to me. I think I might have also watched an Illuminaughti video before all the tea originally spilled about her like a year ago

I’m forever going to be paranoid now about anyone who seems to put out quality work too quickly

fortunately james somerton missed me but i didn't miss my chance to get apoplectically mad about this fucking piece of shit poetically opining about how only the boring gays died of aids and that the nazis were just SO fucking gay
TWO OF THEM
genuinely fucking furious and baffled that he had ANY standing in the queer community after he said shit like that but at least he's been erased from the earth.
A Grinning DM
The part that really got me, perhaps just because of the sheer irony, was the video essay he did about erasure of gay writers in the media, an essay that was like 95% him plagiarizing queer writers and giving them no credit

YEAH
A Grinning DM
Sorry, “did” should probably be in some heavy quotes there

james somerton may be a liar and a crook, but we know that he wasn't just pretending to be gay because he used it to randomly attack women, which the hbomb video seemed to suggest was the only authentic content in his essays
A Grinning DM
I mean, you don’t have to be gay to randomly attack women, but his beef at how women treat their gay bffs sounded personal
A Grinning DM
BUT he lies so effortlessly that it wouldn’t surprise me that it sounded personal because he just took it from someone’s personal blog or something
TWO OF THEM
worded it badly but basically he used his status as a queer man to leverage moral superiority over straight women because he lacks the same privilege (being straight) that they have as a guise for his misogyny
Rama
Milo Yiannapolis except relatively subtle about being a Nazi (he wasn't that subtle)
Quinneapolis
all I'm saying is

has anyone seen James Somerton and George Santos in the same room
A Grinning DM
Shit
A Grinning DM
Quinn makes a good point
