Origins
The channel was originally a let's play channel run by two old school friends, Shaun and Jen. Shaun began making videos about other YouTubers (such as LeafyIsHere and CinemaSins) in 2016, and soon after began making videos refuting the arguments of popular right-wing, alt-right and anti-SJW YouTubers. The videos became increasingly popular as a new wave of leftist youtubers (such as ContraPoints and HBomberguy) began to gain traction on YouTube through their critiques of right-wing politics. Jen doesn't participate in these videos beyond occasionally drawing the thumbnail art, and eventually left for Twitch. By September 2017, the title of the Shaun and Jen Youtube channel was changed to simply "Shaun" (pending a new name), while Shaun's twitter handle and Twitch Channel still have Jen in the title. The symbol of the channel is a human skull wearing sunglasses, allegedly in order to "reclaim the skull" from the alt-right (Davis Aurini, maker of The Sarkeesian Effect and Alt Right Dogs, keeps one on his bookshelf).
