The Evolution of The Amazing Atheist from the Father of Anti-SJW YouTube to ‘Feminist’ Bernie Bro

Описание: TJ Kirk aka the Amazing Atheist is one of the oldest YouTubers who has covered current events, religion and politics since 2007. He often debunked religious arguments coming from Republicans and often expressed his displeasure with the corporations who ruled America and had advocated for a public option for health insurance and universal healthcare. TJ is also widely seen as the first real Anti-SJW YouTuber, creating a form of content that would long outlast his material with many skeptics abandoning atheism for the anti-SJW form of content.

He made videos critiquing people like Anita Sarkeesian, but would also move onto criticising Donald Trump. Unlike many anti-SJWs, TJ’s atheism meant he was no friend to Trump and actively supported Bernie Sanders for President in 2016 and 2020.

If you look and Kirk’s channel in 2021 it seems like a standard BreadTube adjacent anti-capitalist left-wing channel. Due to interviews with people like Vaush, Kirk has become welcomed in many online lefty circles. By and large I do not have a problem with Kirk’s current output, but I believe he has a massive blindspot when he talks about race in America.

In 2019 and 2020 he put out several videos that showed his blindspot, in which he also advocated for people to be ‘colour blind’. While recognising the counter arguments to this world view, it seems Kirk’s pro-equality, anti-theism and anti-capitalism stances hasn’t yet led him to the conclusion that race is deeply connected to these systems and beliefs he rails against.

This video documents the throughline in his politics, his shift leftwards and the problematic beliefs he still holds.
