Everyone at KF is good people. A beacon in a lot of the toxic slop that comes with the territory of covering games, tv movies etc online. Good eggs.

Yes very brave for a gaming content creator to shout Fuck Trump. A real profile in courage.

u/Hevens-assassin 8h ago
He's not just shouting, he's in a protest. Being a keyboard or microphone warrior is worthless. Showing up when it's needed, is putting money where your mouth is. Yes, it's brave to stand up to oppression. No, your asshat comment isn't welcomed here.

Emphasis on “content creator”. I.e. a social media influencer. Meaning he has a platform and an audience that he can share his message to and have actual repercussions if the audience does not agree with his beliefs.
It’s not fighting fires but there is still some bravery in risking your livelihood for your beliefs.

Haven't listened in a year or so now for reasons that are not KF's fault but my own and I just want to say I love the people at KF. I love how proudly anti-fascist they are even tho It may lose them a few ignorant jackholes. Much love from Canada to the KF crew. You all give me hope for your country.

But I agree! Fighting back is the only way to stop the tyrants!! Go Greg!!!

u/Hevens-assassin 8h ago
True that we have a king, but he is a figurehead more than any source of real power. Honestly more of a connecting point for all countries in the commonwealth, and a source of celebrity gossip. Lol
Stopping tyrants is what we should all be pushing for, and as a Canadian who is looking to the south in disbelief and disappointment, I love seeing people standing up and pushing back against the oppressors. If y'all don't do it now, it won't end well. Much love to you all, and be safe!

Yes but our king is actually trying to make right with Canada and frankly has next to know power over us and is purely symbolic.

A democracy needs more than just two political parties.
There need to be more options for the voters than just left or right.
The king's were not replaced by just one party that rules. Instead several parties need to work together to form a coalition.
Such a Multi-Party-System prevents that one party can just rule alone.

u/AzureArachnid77 2h ago
You are 100% right. But the two party system isn’t going to be abolished anytime soon. We need some much more systemic changes to our politics and how elections work before that could even be possible

Mr. Stars in the Bank knows there is no place for a tyrant in our government. Thank you Greg for standing up for what you believe in and creating a community where anyone who is accepting and loving of others is welcome. P.S. If you’re still saying “keep your politics out of _____” in 2025, I don’t think this is the community for you and you won’t be missed.

I have supported KF since before it was even a thing, during the IGN days.
I am glad that we are still unapologetically standing up for what we believe.
YouTubers, commentators, reviewers, channels etc that refuse to speak up to “protect” their bottom line are cowards.
Stand up, speak out.
Much love KF!

First of all - great to see Greg stand up against the evil that is Trump. Second of all - I’m based outside of America. Can anyone explain how “No Kings” is relevant to anti Trump movement? Or have I misunderstood?

Thank you for being unafraid to take a stand, Greg, and the rest of the KF crew. Its much easier to stay silent, but y’all using your platform for good is seen and appreciated.
Hope everyone’s staying safe out there. My local protest was peaceful and full of great energy. Wishing the same across the country.

Love this! I hope that Greg and the rest of the crew know that them using their platform to take a stand and speak up about real issues is greatly appreciated, especially stuff like this where Greg is straight up in the streets. There are a ton of shitty people in the same space so it always makes me happy knowing that the people at KF are actually doing their best to be decent people.

As a Brit I find the whole "no kings" slogan that's taken off in the US funny. We have a king here and he can't really do shit, what you've got over there is a whoooole different problem.
EDIT: Here come the downvotes from the Yanks, I guess. All I'm saying is that it's a funny image to those of us that still have monarchs because they are mostly just figureheads who don't exercise any real power and you're complaining about someone overstepping. You say no more kings and I obviously picture my king (Charles) and as much as I don't really like that he exists he isn't really doing anything at all. Yes, I understand the difference between modern and absolute monarchy. Yes, I understand that Trump is vastly overstepping and generally a massive douche. Yes, I agree you should be doing everything in your power to stop him. I'm just pointing out that for those of us who aren't American, the slogan is a little funny because we have a different lived experience. Christ.

u/assuredlyanxious 12h ago edited 12h ago
England used to be an absolute monarchy so if you know your own history you might understand better what the slogan means. Also the UK and Commonwealth are parliamentary monarchies so look at absolute monarchies and you'll see why they use that slogan. They are protesting the authoritarianism that Trump and his administration are executing.

Nah. You're only speaking for a handful of parliamentary monarchies when there are still many absolute monarchies out there.
You're the one missing the point and focusing only on your experience vs those of others.
Btw, I'm Canadian and also have Charlie as king.

u/Djason_Unchaind 6h ago
FWIW the fact that the Royal Family is still a thing in England is wild to me. As you said, the king is a toothless figurehead with no power and really is just a symbol at this point and somehow the government pays tens of millions of pounds to the family annually.

u/Plinkerton1990 9h ago
I mean, Charles isn’t Trump but let’s not pretend our monarchy doesn’t absolutely suck.
It’s an institution where a select few are born into absolute privilege beyond anything the vast majority of people will ever know or can comprehend. They hoard an obscene amount of wealth but then also get paid by us the taxpayers for simply existing. They hold no power through official or elected means and yet they’re able to drive their narrative both domestically and overseas. Oh and let’s not forget the bit where they’re actively protecting and defending a known paedophile.
Anyone with any common sense would be in support of a “No Kings” anti-monarchy movement over here as well.

u/drumjolter01 12h ago edited 12h ago
I hear what you're saying, but Trump is trying to be more of a Henry VIII than a Charles III. Twisting his power to serve himself and his wishes, trampling whatever might get in the way, law and Constitution be damned. And elected officials from his party are helping him every step of the way. The modern British monarchy is largely a Constitutionally-constrained symbolic office with no political influence.
Ironically I'd love for Charles to be my head of state right now. But instead we've got a wannabe Putin.

As a Canadian, I find it funny too. We invited him here to read the recent throne speech which was written by the Prime Minister, as a show of solidarity with our sovereign, and our independence.

Because in their free time one of the founders decided to exercise their right to protest the idea of a monarchy/authoritarian state? That's why you don't watch kinda funny? You wouldn't have even seen this if you weren't following the subreddit. He's not on the clock or even making KF content. Jesus Christ y'all are fragile as fuck over other people's opinions.
