Taking a look at the fallout from the H3/Sam Seder/Steven Crowder (non-)debate
Crowder made it onto Twitter's top 10 trending search terms on Tuesday, with many viewers criticizing Crowder for fleeing the debate with Seder,
who surprised Crowder during a debate with YouTuber Ethan Klein of H3H3Productions.
In 2018, Seder and Crowder were scheduled to debate at the Politicon conference, but Crowder did not attend the event. Seder is the host of the Majority Report, a political talk show on YouTube with 1 million subscribers.
Crowder is a political commentator with 5.5 million subscribers on his YouTube channel, which has been criticized for racist commentary and COVID-19 misinformation.
In March, YouTube removed a video from Crowder's channel that mocked a COVID-19 relief bill to benefit Black farmers, calling the plan "reparations" for "colored farmers." While YouTube removed the video for containing COVID-19 misinformation, the platform said the video did not violate its hate-speech policy, OneZero reported.
The YouTuber has faced punishment for violating policies in the past. In June 2019, YouTube temporarily demonetized his channel after the journalist Carlos Maza called him out for homophobic harassment, though the monetization was reinstated a year later.
Crowder invited Klein to debate, but Seder arrived as a surprise
On a March 30 livestream on Crowder's channel, the conservative pundit mocked Klein,
the host of the YouTube channel H3H3Productions, for saying that "you shouldn't think about" what the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention "tells you what to do"
but that Americans should just follow the agency's guidelines.
Two months later, in May, Klein responded on his own livestream, sparking a back-and-forth that culminated when Crowder invited Klein onto his show to talk on June 7, saying the debate would be a "layup."
Crowder and Klein entered a Zoom call under the impression that they'd be debating the CDC's policies and issues of tech censorship. But instead, Klein brought Seder to join the debate.
"Oh no, it's Sam Seder! What a f---ing nightmare! I had no idea this was going to happen," Crowder said when Seder appeared. After 15 minutes, Crowder left the call.
During the YouTube video featuring the short-lived debate, Klein described Crowder as "one of the most hateful, bigoted people" on YouTube.
The video quickly spread on Twitter, YouTube viewers were hyped for
the much-anticipated debate between Crowder and Seder.
Before the footage aired online, the streamer Hasan Piker, who shares progressive political thoughts on Twitch, tweeted that he was "stoked" for the debate.
After Klein published the video, the conversation really started to pick up, with Twitter users mocking Crowder for refusing to participate in the call with Seder.
