    I used to watch Cody’s Lab regularly, not so much anymore. I think at one point he and his girlfriend had split up, and he was having a hard time with it, and watching him sorta felt like I was gawking at him. It’s been long enough back that I’m not even sure if what I felt was correct or not but I’ve just never gone back to watching him.

    A former coworker of mine who is pretty fucking right wing (he used to wear the proud boy collared shirt/braces/boots to work, and had the 3%’er logo or whatever tattooed over his heart) told me that Cody was right wing, or adjacent around the same time I was watching and so it just sorta reinforced what I felt… to be honest I have no idea if it’s true or not. Maybe I just grew out of watching him/his content. I dunno.

      I never really got that feeling that he was right wing but I wouldn’t say I’m super confident either way. He is from like, rural nevada or whatever, so even if he’s not conservative, it’s pretty hegemonic and he doesn’t seem interested in pushing back from the left. That period where he was super depressed was definitely a downer, but like, shit happens and clearly he didn’t have a lot of other outlets
