| '''The Canadian Commie''' is a [[Canada|Canadian]] [[YouTube]] channel managed by a talentless hack by the name of '''Jon Michael Sanderson''' (born 6 January 1983) which claims to "provide political commentary from a [[Communism|communist]] perspective."<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/@JonMSanderson/about "About"]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved 2022-12-13.</ref> He uploads low-effort slop content (usually in the form of 3 hour-long livestreams) on an irregular basis. | |

| The show generally consists of Sanderson mindlessly pontificating about video games, films, current events, or just whatever he saw on [[Reddit]] that day. He is a willfully ignorant moron who clearly hasn't read much theory (making ridiculous claims such as "[[Karl Marx|Marx]] believed that [[labour]] is the source of all [[value]]"), couldn't point to most [[Country|countries]] on a map, and will continue to double-down on his utterly braindead assertions even when shown evidence demonstrating that he's a clueless arsehat. In this respect, Sanderson is comparable to figures such as [[Destiny (streamer)|Destiny]] and [[Vaush]], only without the massive [[cult]] following.

| Sanderson allows people to spread [[Homophobia|homophobic]] and [[Transphobia|transphobic]] views in his chat near-unabated, but he will not grant that same courtesy to anyone who dares question his own [[Bigotry|bigoted]] views. In addition, he has expressed sympathy for [[reactionary]] figures such as [[Jordan Peterson]], Vaush (when Vaush accidentally showed child porn on his livestream), and [[Dave Chappelle]] (when Chappelle was receiving backlash for his transphobia); as well as for reactionary crusades such as the [[Anti-vax movement|anti-vaccine movement]] and the [[2022 Truckers' Protest|Freedom Convoy]].
