The atheist [[Thunderf00t]] is the most popular evolutionist at YouTube.
On July 1, 2012, atheist [[Ed Brayton]] wrote about Thunderf00t's banning from [[FreethoughtblogsFreethought Blogs]]:
{{cquote|As many of you are no doubt aware, there’s been a lot of strife in this community lately. Some of it has been in public, some of it was in private and some of it may well go from being private to public as a result of all of this. So let me give you the news and clear the air:
The matter which appeared to spark the contention was how to properly deal with the significant amount of [[misogny]] within the atheist community (see: [[Atheism and women]] and [[Women's views of Richard Dawkins]] and [[Atheism, polyamory and other immoral relationships|Atheist leaders and immoral relationships]]).<ref>[http://freethoughtblogs.com/pharyngula/2012/07/01/thunderf00t-check-your-email/ Thunderf00t, check your email - PZ Myers]</ref><ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuKH3trPpgY&list=UUmb8hO2ilV9vRa8cilis88A&index=1&feature=plcp Thunderf00t on how to handle misogny in the atheist community]</ref><ref>[http://freethoughtblogs.com/thunderf00t/2012/07/01/skepchickcon-and-the-harassment-lol-icy/ SkepchickCON and the Harassment LOL-icy]</ref><ref>[http://freethoughtblogs.com/thunderf00t/2012/06/29/is-it-freethoughtblogs-or-group-think-blogs/ Is it ‘Freethoughtblogs’ or ‘Group-think-blogs’?]</ref>
[[Vox Day]] wrote that Thunderf00t's removal from Freethoughtblogs Freethought Blogs exemplified [[PZ Myers]]'s unwillingness to intellectually engage his opponents and his lack of integrity.<ref>[http://voxday.blogspot.com/2012/07/free-fascistthoughtblogs.html Vox Fay on FreethoughtblogsFreethought Blogs]</ref>
=== Rebecca Watson response to Thunderf00t and his fans ===
I debated whether or not to write about this because the recent insults about Skepchick have been so self-evidently ignorant and wrong that I felt it would look like we were picking on tiny, angry babies. And no one likes to see that. I’m relenting only because the sheer amount and absurdity of the insults have reached a level that cannot be ignored, like a large mob of angry babies brandishing pacifiers and blankies as weapons.<ref>[http://skepchick.org/2012/07/hot-gossip-were-all-burqa-wearing-nazis/ Hot Gossip: We’re All Burqa-wearing Nazis]</ref>}}
=== Matt Dillahunty on the events surrounding Thunderf00t's removal from FreeThoughtblogs FreeThought Blogs ===
According to the atheist [[Matt Dillahunty]] Thunderf00t acted dishonestly and inappropriately subsequent to his removal from Freethoughtblogs Freethought Blogs and he had "gone off the deep end".<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQEKXlSrziM Regarding Thunderf00t, FTB, harassment and privacy]</ref>
=== Thunderf00t's October 2014 commentary on Freethoughtblogs Freethought Blogs ===

In October 2014, the popular YouTube atheist [[Thunderf00t]] indicated that the bloggers at [[FreethoughtblogsFreethought Blogs]] (Freethoughtblogs Freethought Blogs is the most popular atheist blogging community) accidentally put him on their email list and that they spend a considerable amount of time emailing each other engaging in petty matters. In fact, he indicated that they spent more time emailing each other than engaged in actual blogging. He also questioned the impact of the bloggers of Freethoughtblogs Freethought Blogs on social justice.<ref name="youtube.com">[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inqcLXNlEes Atheism+ Stream: How SJWs pushed their way into Atheism]</ref> Furthermore, he indicated that their attempt to make him a pariah within the atheist community had virtually no impact.<ref name="youtube.com"/>
He also indicated that the accomplishments of Rebecca Watson are very thin and that she promotes feminism in an offensive manner.<ref name="youtube.com"/>
On July 11, 2016, the white, male, atheist YouTube channels [[TheAmazingAtheist]], Sargon of Akkad, Undoomed, Armoured Skeptic, Atheism is Unstoppable, Kraut and Tea, Chris Ray Run, Anthony Fantano, Mr. Repzion, Cult of Dusty came out with a video entitled ''Questions White Men Have For SJWs''.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4lFSq_Efzk Questions White Men Have For SJWs] which obtained over 700,000 views at YouTube by September of 2016.</ref>
In response to the video, PZ Myers wrote a dissenting response blog post at [[FreethoughtblogsFreethought Blogs]].<ref>[http://freethoughtblogs.com/pharyngula/2016/07/14/what-if-the-atheist-assweasels-of-youtube-got-together-and-made-a-video/ What if the atheist a**weasels of YouTube got together and made a video?] by PZ Myers</ref>
