I wrote previously how the lawyer and youtuber who goes with the handle LegalEagle for years used to make very entertaining and didactic videos, mostly about the depiction of legal procedure in movies and TV series, and rarely commenting on real-life events, and even then in a commendably neutral manner. Then, out of the complete blue, for some unfathomable reason, on June of 2019 he uploaded a video where he, rather incomprehensibly, went almost full-on social justice warrior by not only defending the actions of the Captain Marvel character in a deleted scene of the eponymous movie, but moreover spouted quite an amount of social justice rhetoric and vocabulary (by, among other things, accusing male viewers of the movie of "mansplaining", etc.)
Then, a few months later, it appears that he contracted full-on Trump Derangement Syndrome, and made his YouTube channel an anti-Trump propaganda channel. While he did upload a significant amount of content unrelated to politics, by my count a bit over half of the videos were about Trump or current political events, pretty much all of them being anti-Trump and anti-conservative. The pinnacle of this propaganda campaign was a spiel video uploaded a few weeks before the presidential election voting which was pretty much nothing but 10 minutes stock full of the same lies, distortions, misrepresentations and exaggerations that the mainstream media has been spouting about Trump over the last 4 years.
But how about now, many weeks after the votes have been cast? For some reason he wanted to become an anti-Trump pro-Biden activist and campaigner, to dissuade as many people as possible to vote against Trump. Now the voting is over, and nothing he could do affects the result anymore. Dissuading more people won't change the result of the vote. So perhaps that he got it out of his system he has returned to his old style of reviewing movies and TV series from a legal perspective, and making interesting and didactic content?
Of course not.
His anti-Trump propaganda campaigning just continues, even though it doesn't have any effect on anybody's voting decisions anymore. It appears that he has contracted Trump Derangement Syndrome for good, and he just can't stop talking about it. I expect his channel to be an anti-Trump propaganda channel for at least the next months, perhaps even years.
It seems that he was really late to the party, but he's here to stay for the foreseeable future.
