I think this is it. I am so fucking sick of being politically aware. I am tired of knowing that most of the bullshit in the US was caused by Jerry Falwell standing to lose money from desegregation. I am tired of being trans in an idiot state governed by those that fuckers he influenced over 50 years ago. I am tired of only being able to vote or hold a sign. This whole thing is fucked.

I am tired of having literal rocks thrown at me if I dare to speak when my voice doesn't match my presented gender. I am tired of being told that I shouldn't exist. I am tired of being completely ignored at work even with over 20 years in the trade.

I don't know why this sent me over the edge reading this, but I am so ready to cash out my savings and live in a dark bunker, letting an ignorance of this garbage's existence wash over me.

I say this with all of my being: The GOP and neo nazis like this fucker can sit on it and spin.

Go buy firearms and join/start an LGBTQIA+ militia. Either you train to protect yourself, or you can continue what you are currently doing which is roll over and die in the torrent of hate instead of fighting it back.

[–] p03locke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Yep, it's rather demoralizing when the side of sanity and critical thought are ranting about getting rid of all firearms, when the other side already has enough firearms to turn a potential civil war into Team America vs. Cavemen Throwing Rocks At Each Other.

Be less like Ghandi and be more like fucking Black Panthers. Or at least support the 2nd Amendment and stop with this pointless bullshit about how we don't need guns because the city police is totally going to have our backs :rollseyes:

[–] JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca 10 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Most of those backwards transphobic states also make it pretty easy to purchase a concealable firearm and also frequently allow such concealment without much red tape. Food for thought my friend.

I have 3 just because creeps exist.

Hey, cash out your savings and live in Taiwan. We are the first Asian country in the world to acknowledge gay marriage and have a vibrant LGBTQ+ community. Even this year's winner for RuPaul's drag race went to a Taiwanese contestant.

We would welcome you with open arms and invite you to work here.

Me, 10 years ago: haha, the onion

Me, now: haha, republicans

[–] Nom@lemm.ee 30 points 5 months ago (2 children)

It's like these conservatives are just closet homos who can't seem to be able to get out of the closet.

[–] mortemtyrannis@lemmy.ml 21 points 5 months ago

The worst part is they are ruining for all homos because they are so self hating.

Honestly they can get fucked.

I’m sorry their mum and dad can’t accept you want to take cock up the bum but it’s no reason to go around stopping other perfectly happy and well adjusted people from doing it.

[–] zurohki@aussie.zone 15 points 5 months ago

Isn't it weird how men who spend a lot of time thinking about gay sex keep turning out to be gay?

[–] Zier@fedia.io 26 points 5 months ago

Not shocked, all republicans are hypocrites!

[–] soba@lemmy.ca 22 points 5 months ago

I thought everyone knew he was gay. A self hating gay guy, sure, but I thought this was known facts.

Honest question. I'm vaguely familiar with streaming software and fairly tech literate.

How does something like this accidentally happen?
Also, OP says he forgot to turn off the camera and masturbated but that doesn't seem to be what the video depicts?

The Jews did it?

Come on, that's a little on the nose, isn't it?

[–] millie 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)
[–] wick@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago

Pretty much, and some very bad ones at that. Like if he set alt-tab to start streaming.

[–] wick@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

The only way this could happen is if he has hotkeys setup to switch between video sources, and I guess to restart the stream. I don't think OBS (the most used streaming software) set these hotkeys up by default so we can't really guess what they might be. It is also likely that Nick uses some kind of 3rd party stream control hardware to manage these shortcuts, but if that is the case it would make it even less likely that this happened by accident because when using a device like that you usually set up long shortcuts like ctrl-shift-alt-F9, etc.

SO if Nick has set these shortcuts to be the same as the at least two of the following:

  • alt-tab to his browser/media player,
  • ctrl-tab to cycle through browser tabs,
  • Space to resume playback,
  • Ctrl-shift-p to open a private browser, or
  • Left click / right click for a bunch of stuff

then it's possible that Nick managed to restart the stream, begin playback, and after several seconds switch the video source.

It's pretty damn unlikely. The sound, maybe, that could continue without additional input from the user as it captures all desktop audio by default. But starting the stream again and switching video source? Nah I doubt it.

"it was research!"

[–] squid_slime@lemm.ee 11 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

image of a press release i am not sure how credible this is (cant verify whether this was only streamed to 1 of the 3 platforms) I'm all for bashing on a nazi but if what hes saying is true then we probably shouldn't spread this as gospel

Edit: if false and knowingly supporting a factious narrative then this becomes a slur and not a report on a hypocritical nazi. what is said in the above link looks to be reasonable, as when streaming to multiple platforms it would be highly likely that this would be done from a single instance of obs, so when only 1 of the 3 hosting sites has gay porn streamed to it it is reasonable to believe that a hacker has hijacked the stream apposed to the nazi using 3 streaming applications, disconnecting 2 and continuing to watch gay porn on 1, nonsensical.

[–] Tom_Hanx_Hail_Satan@lemmy.ca 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It's not that I disagree with anything you said, except this. "If what hes saying is true then we probably shouldn't spread this as gospel"

Why not? Fuck em. If John Q public knows who this guy is, it's probably his connections to Kanye and Alex Jones. Maybe MTG. It's up to the audience to scratch beneath the surface. If they do and they let people misrepresenting a nazi watching gay porn effect their opinion on fucking anything then John q public is a piece of shit desperate for both sides trash. If that's the case, fuck em. That's worst case scenario, best case scenario is more make up on all those fucking clowns.

[–] squid_slime@lemm.ee 3 points 5 months ago

Fuck em indeed but spreading falsities will only discredit the left. Besides character assignation is low brow fascist behaviour.

[–] chatokun@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Agree with the other reply, but I will say one of his least terrible things but you may have heard about is he was a major source of Kanye's "I love Hitler" tour. He was with him on almost every appearance, if not every one of them.

So obviously fuck this nazi scumbag but I watched the uncensored version and it’s pretty obvious he was hacked or something like that.

[–] YeetPics@mander.xyz 11 points 5 months ago (1 children)

.ml and dishonesty.

Name a better duo

[–] steal_your_face@lemmy.ml 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

Wouldn’t want the truth to get in the way of your worldview huh? It’s crazy how I can say this guy is a piece of shit but was hacked and it still triggers some people.

[–] Maeve@kbin.social 2 points 5 months ago

The same people talking about his Republicans project.

[–] BurningRiver 8 points 5 months ago (2 children)

and it’s pretty obvious he was hacked or something like that.

Is it? Care to expound on that theory?

[–] steal_your_face@lemmy.ml 4 points 5 months ago

Have you watched it? It doesn’t show him browsing for porn it’s just continuous clip after clip of extreme porn.

[–] wick@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Also there's a watermark advertising an anti-groper telegram group on the footage.

Honestly, anyone who thinks it wasn't hacked is just an idiot or doing it for political reasons. The latter are also idiots because this doesn't even hurt his fanbase, they are fully aware it's a hack, and are now blaming the Jews for it. It's a complete win for them because they now convince themselves they are victims of Jewish aggression.

The more I think about how unconvincing it is the worse I feel about the situation and the hacker. They could have done a lot more with a hacked stream key than this.

Neo-Nazi bastard

[–] bluewing@lemm.ee 5 points 5 months ago

I thought this was no secret anymore. It's been reported on before I think. Not that it should surprise anyone about his taste in porn.

ah yes, a classic.

[–] generichate1546@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Gay Nazis...... goddamn it why do Nazis ruin everything

[–] IvanOverdrive@lemm.ee 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Fun Fact: Ernst Röhm and The Brownshirts were super gay. Apparently during The Night of the Long Knives, Röhm and a huge amount of Brownshirts were scooped up during a massive gay orgy. I bet that was a wild ride until it ended in prison.

[–] wick@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

It does look like it was hacked, but I don't have any experience with how a duplicate stream source plays out in a situation like this. Just that I can't easily imagine how misclicks or a bad setup would result in this particular series of events in something like OBS.

The twitter and kiwifarms threads are predictably useless (also this one, c'mon guys, use your brains, we're supposed to be better than reddit). According to the groypers Nick was outed as gay some time ago, but he prefers femboys over this kind of stuff. I'm not a Fuentes lore expert but I feel like I've heard this before so maybe it's true.

Kinda funny to see the right eating itself alive in the kiwifarms thread with neonazis screaming crazy antigay bigotry on one side, and groyper neonazis coping hard on the other.

But what I really want to know is how the stream key was stolen. I hope whoever did it comes forward soon. I feel like the groypers aren't going to be fazed by this and will just build themselves up with more conspiracy. It would be better imo to just slam Nick for his trash op-sec.

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 months ago

i kind of wanted to see the reactions too.
