      AvE as in AvE. It use to mean “arduinoversusevil”, but the arduino stuff quickly became a memory. He’s tech youtuber out in rural, western Canada who would review power tools and DIY projects. He had a rugged individualism thing going on, but never really got into politics or current events until the he posted the video in support of truckers shit.

        Ah, I only watch occasional video of his and wondered what AvE meant and why there was a microcontroller on the icon of a dude who mainly does tool reviews. I figured he was probably conservative being rural, but I never heard anything concerning in the few videos I watched. Guess that changes things.
