He's the biggest name among the dissident right, thousands of live viewers every night, has congressmen on his side

These 2 things don't compute. He has the system on his side, ergo he's a part of the system not a dissident.

I think he just copies takes/rhetoric from based people, waters it down, packages it with Sam Hyde's humour then uses it to direct support into the GOP. He's a gatekeeper that exists to make zoomers into extremely hostile/catty retards that attack everyone who opposes the system.

He is essentially an antifa radicaliser when you understand the role he fills, he is just the leader of what we could called right wing zoomer antifa.

As for whether he's a redpilling force/gateway to dissidents I don't think so.

The nature of the myths he's set up about infiltration of the GOP, optics etc while being extremely hostile to every dissident makes for the best gatekeeping.

I don't think there's much overlap of dissidents and his audience and there's not really much potential for bringing them to us either due to the nature of them being hostile to real dissidents. I think only those who watch a bit of his stuff casually with a broader diet of nationalist content will come to our camp, and those people will invariably stop listening to him. Those who mainly watch him or only learned our talking points through him will just stick with him and be part of the ironybro/groyper/incel community until they get bored. I find it unlikely anyone is going to listen to him and then seek revolutionaries to organise with like Patriot Front or the NJP.

I used to watch his streams every now and then like 5 years ago because I like MDE/Sam Hyde so I found him funny but it's impossible to watch his stuff as well as other dissidents because how much he talks shit about everyone. If you don't have a feminine disposition all the drama/gossipy stuff is really annoying.

He caters to a very specific audience - zoomer incels and mixed race/ Hispanics who like right wing politics but are unwilling to support white nationalism so they hide behind trad cath larp and a vague amorphous "America First"
