He argued that the reason so many Americans joined up to fight in the western front was to get a glimpse of those shirtless ubermensch they’d be fighting against. Never mind that the Germans were getting really rough by the time the USA showed up in the western front and also most US soldiers were drafted, and also you couldn’t pick the front you’d fight in. And that the US bodybuilder movement comes from trying to create their own gorgeous muscular bodies to emulate the Germans.

He also said Americans didn’t get horny for Soviet men the same way because they all wore thick coats all the time. The Soviets. The world champions in broadcasting oiled up, muscular athletes doing feats of strength and dexterity.

Todd in the Shadows… A goddamn music critic also did a Somertin take down, more of a “Here are the facts he got straight up wrong” video. One of them was “Hitler didn’t kill Ernest Rohm because he was gay… It’s because he was fat!”

Also reinforced the “asian men aren’t masculine” trope.

Also when questioned, the co-writer revealed that he just made all this up with no source.
