I haven't watched their content in a couple of years now, but there was a series of bad takes on Twitter, a hell of a lot of cringe, toxicity, self-centeredness, and performative self-victimisation, The main drama I saw was with Xanderhall and Vaush. On the other side of it, they've done a string of collaborations with varying levels of success.
Their videos were generally OK, if a little basic with some flawed analysis. They chose some interesting subjects, but their content took a meaningful dip not long after they came out as NB (I hope I don't have that wrong?). Hopefully the dip was just a short-term product of some of the stress and distraction, but their content wasn't strong enough to get me through it and I checked out.
If you like the content, you like it, and there's nothing wrong with that - it's not horrible, I just thought it stopped being worth watching (though hope that's changed).
I guess I'm a bit lenient on them (yes, they're NB) since I like their jokes and theirpop-culture content and I admit: Their videos got me to consciously discover anarchism, which has become a cornerstone of my ideology. So I guess their flawed analysis was a good starting point before I got into the more meaty stuff.
I'm glad to hear that!
