The 8 bit guy. I loved his retro computing channel and then one day, he acquired a rare IBM computer and promptly destroyed the power supply by sticking a screwdriver into it (if I remember correctly).

For some reason, I googled about this and discovered he's a gun nut. They're videos of him going grocery shopping with his rifle on his back which apparently he does this knowing it will annoy people.

Unsubscribed from the channel and never looked back.

I love guns, but... Bro... Don't do that.

Too bad about him, his passion for old electronics made me interested when I don't have any particular interest of my own.

When somebody carries a gun into a public space like that... That is what is being said.

[-] Todd_cross@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 5 months ago

Do you have a source for that? I have never heard this.

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 4 points 5 months ago

no thats why i asked. i remember something about it back when i found out about the guns thing.

and honestly whats the chance of a dude having that kind of attitude towards guns not being a fascist?

[-] Todd_cross@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 5 months ago

Oh, fair enough.

I mean with that kind of attitude, he almost definitely is a conservative, whether he's gone full Nazi, I don't know.
