Line 27:
* [[History Repeats]]: Occasionally, he makes comments on how certain events or ideologies are repeating the past.
* [[Humans Are Bastards]]: Given what he generally tends to come across, he doesn't particularly have a high view of at least some segments of the human race.
* [[Mean Brit]]: Averted, usually. He's rather amiable and prefers to give even his opponents the benefit of a doubt. Once he gets pissed off however, this goes into full effect.
* [[No True Scotsman]]: Averted. Sargon makes a point to avoid this trope, which partially stems from classical liberal views and his own distrust of dogma. He also doesn't mind defending conservatives, libertarians, and those he doesn't necessarily agree with.
* [[One of Us]]: When he's not talking politics or social commentary, Sargon not only tends to demonstrate his nerdiness frequently. But he's also an amateur game developer [http://otherworldssoftware.com/ working on an game] called ''Necromancer.''
Line 34 ⟶ 35:
* [[The Reason You Suck Speech]]: So far, he's delivered his share of these to feminism, SJWs, racists and the "Regressive" Left.
* [[Self Deprecating Humor]]: He tends to poke fun at himself frequently. Case in point: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GrbigkvNnPg Sargon Quest].
* [[Shown Their Work]]: He makes a habit of posting source links to whatever he's talking about. His "Ancient Recitations" channel is pretty much this as well, given it's largely him reading from or discussing Antiquity.
* [[Sincerity Mode]]: He's generally frank about his thoughts. But there are particular times wherein he emphasizes this further.
* [[Straw Feminist]]: Some critics accuse him of committing this claim rather than being fair to feminism. Sargon generally counters them by pointing out how they and their colleagues are demonstrating his case.
