Political Activism

Daniel Larson has a history of political activism that spans several years, during which he has expressed a range of opinions on various issues. While some of these opinions are conflicting or not well-thought-out, they nevertheless reflect Larson's engagement with political issues and his efforts to voice his views.

BLM

Black Lives Matter (BLM) is a loosely organized political and social activism campaign that sought to combat racial inequality in the United States. The campaign has existed since 2013 but gained popularity after the killing of George Floyd, it is the main organizer behind the George Floyd protests.

Support of BLM

Daniel, almost directly after knowledge of the George Floyd incident hit the public, made a video of him doing Jumping Jacks, declaring:

"This is for George Floyd. Rest in peace. Black lives matter."

He would make another video soon after during the Fog era, sending an ominous message stating:

"Rest in peace, George Floyd. The police should be terminated"

Hypocrisy

Daniel, despite declaring his approval for this leftist organization meant to combat racism, is a prominent racist himself who has made not only derogatory comments about multiple racial groups but of George Floyd himself, naming one of his weird codes after Floyd.

Various Political Statements

Brittney Griner Deal

On February 17, 2022, Brittney Griner was detained at the Sheremetyevo International Airport in Russia after smuggling 0.5 grams of hash oil into the country, her alleging that it was an accident.

After a short amount of trialing, Griner plead guilty and was given 7 years of imprisonment and a fine of 1 million rubles (~$16,000 USD), even though the sentencing for less than two grams was supposed to be punished by 15 days imprisonment.

Viktor Bout, a notorious Russian arms dealer who supplied multiple militant and terrorist groups, was controversially traded for Griner in a deal with the US government. Viktor would later be released, and so was Griner.

In early December of 2022, Daniel made a video about the deal, him knowing so little about it he thought that Griner was traded for weapons rather than a weapons dealer. He was opposed to the deal, him commenting:

"I think the arms deal with Russia, in exchange for Brittney Griner, was a dangerous move. I wanna know what 'arms' we're talking about, what weapons we're talking about here, because we are ready."

Ukrainian War

The war in Ukraine is an ongoing war occurring between Russia and Ukraine that started in early 2022 and had a long and complex history behind it that Daniel does not understand.

Daniel has voiced support for Ukraine and has voiced opposition to Russia in various, usually naïve ways. He has stated that we need to destroy Russia, charge Russia with murder (if he's referring to the entire Russian population, the Russian government, or Putin himself is unclear), and that Putin should be arrested.

Daniel has also stated interest in going to Ukraine, but these are definitely troll-influenced empty promises.
