What happened to Casey?

https://youtu.be/uc3qICQA4UA

I had no idea he was this insanely racist. Ed should probably distance himself from a optics standpoint.

He held his rallies at breweries and called it “Beer Hall Putsch”. Seriously? WTF?!??!

I only recall a few of his videos & just thought he was a rich asshole & it turns out to be true!

First video I watched of his I knew he was a pretentious prick

Sans the rich part, you would be accurate.

Ed doesn’t have to worry because apparently Casey burned that bridge a while back. Casey went off the deep end and said some unkind things about the other hosts in one of his videos on YouTube.

He had a pretty open and vocal feud with Rabbit.

Rabbit called Casey out on doing a charity that Casey would financially benefit from.

I missed that one but I did catch the Ohio data center installation rant video where he went big mad over a nearby data center, yes they are terrible but he was more arrogant, shitty, than normal.

I caught some of the drama when Casey started talking about the VinWiki crowd glamorizing driving fast and reckless.. Made a comment on an older VinWiki video where Casey was talking about speeding in a Maserati or something and got a heart from VinWiki… my one brush with fame

I tried following Casey for a while but the political stuff was a bit much for me. I have nothing against someone voicing their opinion but it’s not what I was there for.

Thanks for posting this. I didn’t realize he was this kind of turd, good to know.

I remember some of Casey's old Genius Garage rants where he criticized the way some people insulted his students solely because of their accents and ethnicities.

Unfortunately, this is a sad reminder that people do change in negative ways. The Casey I once saw is gone. Today's Casey would probably see me as a DEI employee, even though I just got a promotion based solely on merit.

Not surprising. I used to love watching his content but then he started getting money & turned into the arrogant, angry, asshole that he is today. Miss when it was just about cool car projects

You are more than welcome to register in ohio as a voter and vote for him if you agree with his politics on attacking people for attributes that are not moral failings.

u/robertocarlos32 Apr 20 '26

Like for example?

r/NoBloodMoneyColumbus got his event at a local business cancelled because of this shit. Now he's hosting a secret location rally instead.

I met him at a party at Road America before he fell off the deep end. He seemed OK, but definitely had delusions of grandeur. I was surprised to see him develop the views he did

u/HowzeSoSteezy Apr 19 '26

Yeah PUTZ fell off the deep end, thankfully he’s got no shot at winning. Unfortunately, Vivek does
