So 2 months ago a skeptic youtuber named Kraut and Tea who has a thread in lolcows had a complete meltdown trying to argue against a bunch of alt-right people over the topic of race realism. Since then there has been a series of streams where Skeptic youtubers and alt-right figures sperg at each other for hours.
Now, normal people are not terribly interested in this, but we're not normal people. We're kiwifarms. And there is a very specific audience here for these kinds of threads, and a specific audience who watches these streams on youtube. Warski live has gotten up to #1 on youtube trending during one of the Bloodsports debates.
This has even landed the attention of Right Wing Watch and various other outlets

Mr. Metokur made a video that goes over many of the basics. How it started, some highlights of what happened so far, and names of the people who host shows that are involved with this.
There's also a montage video
However if you don't want to watch the videos I will list out some of it below
Internet Bloodsports programs:
Warski Live: Hosted by Andy "Adam RaceWarski" "Hitler on Steroids" Warski, hosted many of the original streams featuring Kraut and his friends (Such as Jeff Holliday) talking about the clusterfuck that was the top secret 24-hour op discord server. It is now Co-hosted by known lolcow JFG after Warski got on board with the bloodsports.
Morning Kumite: Hosted by @Tonkasaw. Founded the show as a battle royale between the Skeptics and the Race Realists.
Baked Alaska Livestreams: Hosted by lolcow Baked Alaska. Hopped on the bandwagon after Tonka and Warski got more popularity doing it. Though to his credit, his streams are also beautiful shitshows.
PEOPLE OF INTEREST (w/ threads) involved with Bloodsports
[based on episodes I've seen parts of, and the Morning Kumite episode list (archive) on imdb]
(brackets hold political affiliation, this will be important for a later idea too)

There has been talk of making threads on other people involved with this specific type of drama, notably Jeff Holiday for his encouragement of Kraut & Tea.
This is becoming its own form of ratking in a way, where all the people are aware of each other and speak about and to one another frequently.
I was thinking we could foster discussion of these streams and their participants one of a few ways.
A) Create a thread prefix in lolcows called [Bloodsports] and apply it to all of the threads where the cow in question has been involved in multiple Warski Live, Kumite, or Baked Alaska streams. This is where the * next to the name and affiliation comes in.
I'm thinking if we go with a prefix it should be a yellow color (since red is taken by horrorcow and black taken by terrorist Sam Smith), and if possible with red text for that added blood effect.
After the prefix is made, it can be applied by a mod to a new thread involving a Bloodsports participant. (EX: Someone like @MarvinTheParanoidAndroid makes a Jeff Holiday thread, he'd tag it as dramacow or whatever and then report it to staff so we can apply the label to the thread.)
B) Create an Internet Bloodsports subforum under lolcow farms under a trial phase to see if it gets attention. Move all threads with an * next to them to this board. Create a "Bloodsports General" sticky, which would give an overview much like the one I gave in this thread for the newbies reading and of course a "Trial of Internet Bloodsports" sticky.
Threads about individuals involved with this should be made, as should threads about major Bloodsport stream happenings. Similarly to how the DSP board is split between threads about DSP happenings, DSP Orbiters, and discussion threads.
If A wins and this idea goes well enough, it could end up with B happening anyway.
C) Create a more general "Culture War" drama subforum. Move all the threads listed above to it, and I'll personally hunt down all other Skeptic, Alt-Right, or SJW youtuber threads and move them as well.
We'll identify affiliations through thread prefixes: [AltRight] for Alternative Right cows and race realists, [Skeptic] for Sargon and his posse, [SJW] or [SocJus] would work for the SJW threads. Move the Manosphere threads and tag to this one too for good measure.
(Note: this does not include people like Zinnia Jones, who are part of the rat king. But it does include ContraPoints, who is a feminist tranny but is not a rat kinger.)
(Note 2: Community Watch threads like The Skeptic Community, Race Realists, GamerGate, ComicsGate, and Anti-Anti-SJWs would be included. The Social Justice Warrior thread might be included if it's what people want to happen)
Create a trial sticky and boom.

That's all I got for now, but I've been thinking about this shit a lot recently and I was wondering what users and other staff thought of this idea.
