White nationalists are moving from YouTube to DLive
DLive is a streaming service that aims to provide an unbiased platform for gamers and entertainers, at least according to their website.
But like a number of alternative social media sites, it’s got a neo-Nazi problem. Recently, figures from the far-right like Holocaust denier Nicholas J. Fuentes have taken over DLive to stream controversial content.
Fuentes, 22, uses DLive to stream hours of videos for his followers, also known as the Groypers. While he posts the occasional stream of Call of Duty, his more popular videos are of his political reactions.
Fuentes streamed on Dec. 1, where he responded to comments by Israeli talk show host Joe Basrawi. Basrawi is a Turning Point USA (TPUSA) ambassador.
“It doesn’t help that all of these people from Turning Point are fucking ugly,” Fuentes says about Basrawi and other Turning Point members.
In the comment section of Fuentes’ video, Groypers also repeatedly use offensive language. After the Daily Dot requested comment from DLive about harassment seen on Fuentes’ video, the stream replay was taken down from the site.
But, one video is just a drop in the pond of DLive’s white nationalist issue. Here’s everything you need to know about the platform that currently hosts the Groyper army and other odious figures.
