💰 Grifter Devon Del Vecchio / "Dev" / ShortFatOtaku / @sleepy_devo - Degenerate loser, honorary whiteknight for Lilith Lovett, constantly at odds with his own viewers for being a centrist

[General Emílio Médici]

The thumbnail alone makes me want to not even bother. Is this bait or is he actually gonna try and argue some sort of fascist and confederate element is involved on the Cracker Barrel drama?

Saw the vid. His whole thing is "Remember back when Leftoids made everything into a culture war issue (example: Pride Month)? Well, now Rightoids are making everything a culture war issue. The Cracker Barrel thing was simply usual corporate enshittification they've been doing with all things nowadays, just like they did with McDonalds, Pizza Hut or Taco Bell (Which the CB CEO woman was previously CEO/high-level person). However, Rightoids made it into a culture-war thing even when it wasn't; and now they're ignoring more important thing like Trump firing that one person in the Fed (which has gone to SCOTUS), to push culture war things, even if things aren't culture war."

Which, he has a couple of points; but it's still very much Dev being Dev, and not recognizing when "culture war shit" is ACTUALLY "culture war shit". Towards the end, he gives an example of constant leapfrogging on culture war shit within gaming going Forspoken->Suicide Squad->Dustborn->Wukong allegations->Stellar Blade controversy->Assassin's Creed Shadows->Ghost of Yotei. And once again, there is a small point there. But the big problem is, most of those listed WERE culture war issues from the get-go.
Dev really seems to think right-wingers doing culture war in year of our lord 2025 is stupid because "they're not focusing on important stuff which isn't reported by Right-Wing media." Forgetting how sometimes, the culture war IS valid.

Oh you mean when he tried to defecate on the cute japanese McDonald's ads and call it fake corporate slop and then he ended with a gross skit with him AMRing like a pig with his piggier hands eaten McDonald's?

I still remember that shit.

Nah, not that. Taking the pic he used in the vid, he was talking about this.

Essentially how all these different corporations are making their brand change from unique, fun and colorful to bland, corporate, post-modern/brutalist slop.

It's just more TDS along with Dev pretending that the Cracker Barell stuff wasn't a big deal. Dev downplays the win of going back to the old logo, and says none of this matters and we should be playing attention to Trump firing his old financial advisor. Not worth the click.

You mean that style a lot of the younger generations openly hate?

Dev is trying to really defend that now?

Pretty much. As I said, the vid is basically Dev arguing about Rightoids making everything a culture war thing; which, he might have a point on certain specific cases, but many more have been made culture war issues without the Right initially getting involved.

The opposite. He's saying the cracker barrel rebrand which they were trying, was similar to the enshittification of other brands like the ones in the photo. Problem is, according to him, the other rebrands were seen as corporate bullshit, but the Cracker Barrel thing was erroneously thought of as woke shittery than the corporate enshittification that it was.

So basically the lardman video boils down on double standards and the left culture war ball washing...

Dev injecting Trump into a broader conversation about culture war battles is...very sad, honestly, especially since outside of having an opinion on it Trump was pretty much irrelevant to that whole debacle. So rather than make an actual salient point about how hypersensitivity to slights (real or perceived) can lead to large-scale moral outrage, he uses it as a vehicle to bash Trump to his rapidly-dwindling and increasingly anti-Trump fans.

And that's not even getting into the other obvious point that people who he considers political enemies at this point are not going to adopt his moral crusades no matter how strong his convictions are to them. He's just...screaming impotently into the void because the orange man is living rent-free in his head in the White House and not decomposing in a ditch somewhere.

What's worse, the figure of Donald Trump isn't a conservative, much less a reactionary person. He just really annoys others with his sharp wit and rhetoric.

Nah, not that. Taking the pic he used in the vid, he was talking about this.

This may be a social commentary, yet I gotta say - it really is shitty what happened to the restaurants. But it isn't just these places, it's the whole fucking country and society.

Dev: It doesn't matter, but I am going to seethe about lt more than month after this whole thing ended and most people moved on.

Oh wow, Canada is following in China's footsteps? Why am I not surprised?

 

[Goddar]

Spoken by a true lefty who think's it is a good thing for the government to squeeze out at least half of your income in taxation JUST to fund a service that is perpetually insolvent because it keeps paying its admins quarter-million dollar salaries and keeps admitting illegals to the ER because they coughed twice and thought they caught covid.

You know what's a better idea to improve healthcare? Price transparency laws. Get insurance companies out of the business of covering routine checkups - hell, get them out of business PERIOD. Implement tort reform to make it so the lazy stop abusing malpractice laws to fuel their desires to get rich quick from a massive payout from the hospital system. Focus on letting doctors actually own and run their OWN private practices so they don't have to sublet themselves to the massively corrupt hospital system just to BARELY stay afloat.

Taxpayer-funded healthcare is a bandaid solution on a system that broke down precisely because the government decided it wanted MORE control over how medicine is practiced. But just like actual cancer, bandaid solutions don't work and will only make the problem worse.

 

[Bâtard Consanguine]

Publicly funded healthcare only works with a small, homogeneous society that values hard work and considers being on public assistance shameful. Once you put the burden on those who are productive to pay for those who not only have no shame in being a parasite, but think they're so goddamn clever for living for free while others work, and then implement immigration so those worthless sponges are destined to become the majority then the whole thing is a boondoggle that will collapse before long.

Well gentlemen. While it's not shocking to see Dev arguing for teaching children to be gay when they have yet to hit 12



We do have a new one today. A new low. He has declared Sargon a facist. Which, Jesus Christ mate. The Arch betrayal is going to be wild.



Also, Im really starting to wonder if he keeps posting the boomer face book tier memes for the sake of trying to hide his horse shit.

I hopped into Arch's Barotrauma stream just now to see if Dev was on, and yeah he is, but just as I started watching Arch was admonishing Dev's permissive attitude on the gay agenda in kid's cartoons. "Do you want to continue our conversation we had before the stream?" Dev asks, "No, I don't think you'd want me to publicly humiliate you like that" Arch replied. Then the other Canadian guy said "chat, you don't know what happens pre-stream".

 

[General Emílio Médici]

Dev is doing that thing he loves to do where he gives the left infinite chances and eternal good faith despite over a decade of constant betrayal and violation of agreements. People have a problem with these dykes making out because it has been shown multiple times that it is not done out of a desire to show off healthy non-hetero relationships but to indoctrinate kids.

The Totally Spies comparison is particularly shit because that show while perverted didn't exactly show case it as fetish, it was only understandable as fetish material after the fact because none of it was explicit like straight up make-out sessions.

Seriously. I didn’t even get the fetish angle until people brought it up online as an adult.
I watched that show religiously as a kid.

It more comes across like James Bond, where the villains are weird with increasingly bombastic plans for world domination or destruction. Campy spy drama.

That tumblr smut fic poison they add to modern cartoons is just disgusting, transparent propaganda. It doesn’t belong in front of kids which of course means Dev thinks it does.
