I'm out of the loop. What is ChapoTrapHouse? From a search, it looks to be a podcast/show?

Yes. Generally left wing, authoritarian on some issues. The fans/subreddit reflected that, with some going further like moretankiechapo, where tankie = guy that thinks stalin did nothing wrong.

Hard left echochamber that brigaded every sub that posted shit they disagree with. Called for violence and supported violence, celebrated deaths of right wing people and their children, all that sort of stuff.

They claim they only want to kill slaveowners... but classify every employer and landlord a slaveowner. Oh and also just want to kill republicans[1].

To give an example of the level of delusions there:

Ever seen /r/ dogswithjobs? They post cute dogs that have real jobs, like guide dogs, therapy dogs and police dogs.

Chapo brigaded them every time a police dog was posted with vile comments, legitimately believed the subreddit was a propaganda machine for cops, and the subreddit (with no political spin at all) had to filter anyone from chapo being able to post.

Here is a list of violent or supportive of violence posts that saw a lot of support (hundreds of upvotes) on that sub: https://www.reddit.com/r/announcements/comments/hi3oht/update_to_our_content_policy/fwe15li/

And yet they all act innocent, even now. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It’s a podcast

Big time Bernie supporters. Generally very libleft views

Seen as a bit negative because they like to call out stupid views online

Yeah it's a left-wing podcast. We got banned for fantasizing about violent revolution and wishing for the death of multiple elected officials, both Democrat and Republican. Yeah it's a little edgy but like
