Chin up you YouTube Atheists

CapnOAwesome, TheAmazingAtheist, and fakesagan are all assholes, but other than that, it was quite a nice video. ;-)

TheAmazingAtheist is an embarrassment. Pat Condell is great. I don't know the others.

The others are NermalsChannel (who I haven't heard much from lately, but he was once quite popular in the YT atheist community), RabidApe (he's also been low key, but he recently entered a video for Discovery's Explain Evolution in 2 minutes challenge. He didn't win--he wasn't the singer--but he did "win" the popular vote, probably due mostly to his popularity on YouTube), Nick Gisburne (Gisburne2000 on YT, who is best know for debunking Ray Comfort's Atheist's Worst Nightmare argument with a pineapple), Edward Current (if you haven't heard of him, you're missing out on one of the best Poes on YouTube), TheAmazingAtheist (who's technically not an "other" since you're familiar with him), CapnOAwesome (who is now gone fro YouTube because during a "drama event" with fakesagan--more on that jackass later--he posted a sex video that he had shot with the girl who is currently fakesagan's girlfriend.), and fakesagan (a.k.a. hardcaseownsyou--I need a new paragraph for this asshole).

Fakesagan is a drama whore, gun nut, emotionally stunted, trash talking, self important pipsqueak. He is also currently gone from YouTube, but his exile (which while like CapnOAwesome's was self inflicted, unlike CapnOAwesome's) was intentional. He kept reposting a video that violated YouTube's Terms Of Service. He did this in the defence of "free speach" even though he was notorious for blocking other users and deleting comments that disagreed with him. (Before his self-imposed, nay self-inflicted exile, he was the only person blocked from my YouTube channel. That honor now belongs to TheAmazingAtheist. I'm not going to get into the details of why, but the bastard had it coming.) Fakey had built up a reputation as an atheist v-logger who would make the ocassional video insulting Christianity or Islam, but focused most of his energy on creating melodrama with popular YouTube atheists (to drive up his own popularity). It's almost unfortunate that his account is gone or I could point you to some of the more outrageous shit he pulled. Anyhoo, if you want a taste of what fakesagan is about, watch this video.

ps---The order from left to right is: PatCondell, RabidApe, NermalsChannel, CapnOAwesome, fakesagan, TheAmazingAtheist, Gisburne2000, EdwardCurrent.

I do know Edward Current and like him. I didn't know he was in that group.

I also un-subbed The Amazing Atheist after about a month of following him. I did not mind his antics, it just never seemed to go anywhere. This is the first I've heard of Fakesagan, looks like I did not miss much.

I enjoy the videos that stick with the subject of atheism / rationalism like those done by Pat Condel, Thunderfoot, XXXThePeachXXX, etc. The incestuous videos full of in-jokes and drama about other vloggers I can pass on.

Does anyone know what happened to Defender of Reason? I thought her vids were very well done. I fire up her channel after a weeks absence and find no trace of her.
