    What’s the over/under on when he stops painting his face?

    That alone makes me not want to listen to him.

      imagine missing this entire goldmine over makeup…

      to answer your question, considering he’s been doing this for nearly two decades, maybe in 15 years? assuming that’s when he stops making videos.

      That’s what Captain Disillusion’s face looks like. 🤷‍♂️

      The guy playing Captain Disillusion, however, appears without face paint (well, maybe flesh coloured face paint, I’ve never been good at recognising makeup and he seems like the kind of guy that’d make sure not to have weird shines and whatnot in video, though to be fair he’s perfectly capable of fixing that in post, so who knows really) in this very video (for a short but maybe slightly too long sketch), as well as, if I recall correctly (Captain Disillusion’s videos are sadly rather infrequent, so it’s been a while), in at least one other of his videos…

      I get it. Ive never watched this guy once and the makeup is part of why I’ve never clicked on a thumbnail

    I’ve enjoyed every video I’ve ever seen by him, but always forget to subscribe to him and YouTube never recommends his videos to me even though it’s filled with all kinds of other skeptical materials.

      There you have your explanation. “Sceptical” channels will just question everything without providing real evidence. The Captain always backs up his claims.

      I’m very skeptical of “skeptical materials”. most of that shit went on to a misogynistic, transphobic and xenophobic route. and that’s not captain disillusion.
