Ok tell you what he makes some good point at the start mostly towards some (key some) of the imagery.... Though accusing Clinton and the mainstream left of propping up Richard Spencer by acknowledging what Pepe had become is nonsense, as was his general need to defend the meme.

I kind of agree and disagree with this post, but I'm gonna be optimistic and just disagree lols.
With the black rapper thing I think Faders point may have been right, but without knowledge that he criticized white artists too, kind of makes the claim more alarmist than the reality.
As for the Hyde stuff, I think his focus on the rape thing was specifically because he felt attacked, which is natural for one in his position and felt it was evidence of shoddy reporting that tried to assassinate his character, by throwing in rape to create buzz.
Associations with Hyde, Sargon and Amazing Athiest unless there's evidence of more concrete connections other then interviews or one or two tweets in passing, I would assume from the way he speaks he doesn't really think very highly of them, but he should have done a better job saying such if that was the case. However if there's been some evidence to the contrary I missed I would agree.
SJW jokes I don't really care about since there is small subsection of the left that definitely deserves to be ridiculed.
Overall I feel like saying he's not an ally to social justice when his views on very important issues like criminal justice reform, medicare for all, police violence are much more concrete then the more nebulous things that can be inferred from his meme videos, is just an example of the left eating the left. Also had Fader been more measured in their writing a much more fruitful and reasonable conversation could have occurred.
