>>730730>>730880>>731050My experience with the OneyPlays guys, having watched their stuff since I was in elementary school, is that, in terms of their actual views, they're very firmly centrist, at least within the liberal political spectrum. Two of their most important lineups, the one that made the OneyPlays channel famous, and the one that they have currently, are 2/3rds LGBT with one of said two thirds being a porn artist, and multiple of the non-LGBT ones have worked with Vivziepop multiple times. These are not things that outright right-wing people would generally do or condone.
I think what throws people is that a lot of their humor is very abrasive and, for lack of a better word, mean. It's very much an artifact of their backgrounds as Newgrounds people. Back in its prime, Newgrounds humor was very mean and judgemental in this kind of ironically detached way. This was partially because Newgrounds was used primarily by teenage boys, who are just kind of like that, and partially because that was generally the zeitgeist at the time. It's kind of hard to explain if you weren't there, but it was a period where people thought Maddox was the peak of comedy.
For whatever reason, the OneyPlays guys have kept this humor up longer than anyone else. In a world where that kind of thing isn't the norm anymore, I can easily see it being confused for the kind of thing a guy like Sam Hyde does. But it's really something very different. They're not trying to be satirists, they're trying to be assholes.
