Some years back (possibly 2016-2021? Most confident in the 2018-2020 range) I remember there being a true crime YouTube channel narrated by a guy with a tough guy mobster or Bronx-type accent/character, and he would occassionally add in unique vulgarities.The main video of his that I remember, and the one I'm looking for, wasn't really a true crime story, but a personal story from his life. He leads into it talking about that infamous Chinese ad at the time where a Chinese lady puts a black guy in a washer and he comes out Chinese (the narrator kept using the term "Chinaman"), and the outrage surrounding that ad. The story he told was him working at a factory with a tough but fair boss, who, when he was hired, said the narrator could only ask three questions, and then he'd fire him. This was a recurring point throughout the narrative.Cont.
At one point, a German immigrant is hired on in the factory, and the boss gives him a very hard time, because the boss fought in WWII and came out of it with a passionate hatred of the Germans. The boss kept threatening to make the German worker "asshole casserole," which resulted in one of the narrators three questions to the boss; "what is asshole casserole?" The boss said that during the war he had to handle German dead and POWs, and he hated them so much that he'd use a knife to cut out the assholes of dead Germans, cook them and mix them in the stew he'd make for the POWs, and that they "loved the stuff" without knowing it's contents. He still had the knife he used to do it with, too, and it had the boss's initials with the word "maybe" at the end, to be elaborated on.
One day, the German worker's arm gets caught in a machine, and it's tearing his arm to bits and pulling him in, and for some reason I can't recall the only way to stop that machine was to shut the whole factory down. Narrator asked "What do I do?," second question, and the boss gave the order to shut it all down. The German worker got taken to the hospital and was saved, but the company they had been working for was outraged because it took a while to get the factory back up again and they lost a whole lot of money in the time it was down. So despite the boss working there for decades, they fired him. Narrator tells the boss outright that since he's on his way out and wont be able to fire him now anyway, he'd like to ask his third question; why the 'maybe' after his initials on the knife? The boss said something like he had just his initials on it for a while, but during some big strike that looked like it might turn violent, he wrote 'maybe' at the end so that, if he ever used it, and they tried to trace it back to him based on his initials, the "maybe" would be reasonable doubt as to whether someone with his initials ACTUALLY owned the knife.The factory job was so important to the former boss, that if I recall, he ended up committing suicide shortly after being fired. I can't recall whether the boss' wife gave the knife to the narrator and the narrator gave the knife to the recovering German worker, of if the boss' wife gave it to him herself, but the narrator recalled a vivid scene of the recovering German worker in a hospital bed alongside his wife cradling and treasuring the same knife that was used to cut out the assholes of his countrymen, and how complicated it all was. The boss' wife did tell the narrator that, "he didn't hate the Germans; he just hated the war." The narrator looped this back into the Chinese ad and the outrage around it somehow.
The end of the video actually had a picture of the boss in his kitchen posing with the blade of the knife in his mouth like a tough guy.I'm interested in finding the video/channel again because, in case you can't tell, that I somehow remember all these little details from years ago shows it must have left some impact on me.I think I might've originally found it by watching some right-wing streamer I would've been watching at the time react to a different video on the channel, going to the channel, and finding that video myself. I've skimmed streamers I know I was watching around that time (We've Read the Documents, Ryan Dawson and (maybe) Know More News) but they don't react to true crime.
trying supplementing your youtube searches with before:2021-01-01 after:2018-01-01I couldn't find a video essay about the chinese ad
I literally just searched for "asshole casserole" and the video you seek was 5th from the top.
>>1566503>googleThere's your problem. Try ddg
>>1566501Okay, thank you very fucking much. I've looked it up all over YouTube and google and never saw the vimeo link. Cheers.
