Politics
Politics is a bit short and could be expanded. Please feel free to add more content to this article. |
This article will, inevitably, be subject to a lot of bias. Keep in mind when writing this that the point of this article is to rag on Chance's beliefs, not anyone else's. |
Since his early presence on the internet, Chance has been sparsely vocal about politics. Chance is vaguely a libertarian, as his views are mostly just run-of-the-mill anti-government sentiment but with the additional lack of any sort of nuance or critical thought applied to them due to his lack of ability to comprehend either and refusal to believe he's wrong, such as that he believes taxes shouldn't exist as his flawed math led him to believe someone making 20-25k a year with taxes could earn over 7 billion without taxes.
A lot of Cyraxx's political points are usually regurgitated from online publications such as Facebook posts. Many have also noted that Cyraxx's political speeches often coincide with recent embarrassments or personal controversies, suggesting that he might do this to both divert attention while also parading as an enlightened contrarian against the ignorant masses. Given his extremely self-centered personality, Cyraxx may not have any honest political beliefs or orientation, only retaining whatever he thinks might serve him in the spur of the moment to reinforce his ego.
Geopolitics
On April 26th 2024, Cyraxx recorded a video[1] as part of a short-lived podcast he created as an attempt to build a more mainstream platform to denounce and talk smack about the trolls. Here, he goes on a rambling rant about so-called wokeness in the US Army making the armed forces weak, encouraging for the return of more severe training practices such as hazing. Cyraxx here attempts to imitate the average divisive political pundit, but shows a complete lack of knowledge or understanding about the US armed forces (notably using video game-related terms to describe positions in the army and mistaking recruiters for drill instructors).
On June 21st 2024, Cyraxx went live on Twitter/X [2][3] to make a dramatic plea for the entire world to stop fighting and just get along, having been inspired to do so after supposedly seeing a video of a Ukrainian teenager getting forcefully removed from his home to be drafted in the army. It should be noted that this live came after a series of videos where Cyraxx blamed society as a whole for trolls and his failures in a pseudo-political manner, perhaps feeling inspired to act as some sort of world peace advocate afterward.
In a video recorded on Jul 22, 2024, he advocates for the the US to invade Russia and North Korea to depose Putin and Kim Jong Un and poses us the question why all the countries with nukes "Just don't give them up,"[4] demonstrating a sub-brick level of understanding of geopolitics.

Another example of this is him ranting about zero tolerance gun laws, where he argues against them by saying that they unjustly arrest people for defending themselves against attackers,[5] confusing them with duty to retreat laws as zero tolerance laws regulate gun ownership, not self-defense.
