Anatoly Maratovich Artamonov[4] (Russian: Анатолий Маратович Артамонов; born 19 August 1992),[11] better known as Uebermarginal[e] (Russian: Убермаргинал), is a Russian-born[12] American Twitch and YouTube streamer, whose primary topics are philosophy, linguistics, reactions to videos submitted by his viewers, and interviews with various niche Internet personalities of Russia and the former Soviet Union.

Early life

Anatoly was born in the Zelenograd administrative okrug of Moscow, Russia, on 19 August 1992, in the mixed ethnic background[13] family of Russian-English translators.[14] After attending a language school for 5 grades, Artamonov and his family relocated to the United States, settling in Key West, Florida for the next several years. After moving to California, Anatoly volunteered in the almshouse and worked as a cookie salesman, while studying at the University of California, Berkeley, the University of California, Los Angeles, and then at the Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey,[4] earning various degrees in the fields of philosophy, linguistics, Russian literature, and US education.[15] It was around that time that he first tried his luck on YouTube, making several gaming and politics-related videos around 2012 and 2013.[16]

Career

He explains his nickname choice by stating it means "super radical",[17] adding that the "-marginal" part also refers to him being a student, while dialectical materialism describes students as "declassed elements". Uebermarginal first gained some recognition appearing as a radio host on the MadFM internet radio,[18] founded by and named after a famous Russian Internet personality and one of the first Russophone game reviewers Ilya ''Maddyson'' Davydov [ru], where he mostly discussed philosophy with the audience, often collaborating with its other guests. Some of his most frequent guests, such as another philosophy-themed streamer Dmitry "Jeszy Sarmat" Kirilchenko, anonymous provocative actionist known as Sakramar, a Kyiv-based streamer Vlad "Punisher" and a Russian DJ and streamer Artyom "Artifix" Shcheglov had become coloquially known as "Marginal's Conference", reaccuring on his streams even after he left MadFM. A Ukrainian man playing an anti-semitic Jewish caricature "Rabbi Zilberman" had also been a frequently mentioned character of their broadcasts, while one of Anatoly's recurring guests, a Ukrainian political commentator Viktor "Vityunya" Aristov knew him personally, participating in some of fake rabbi's videos, allegedly playing a "Slavic goy" peed on by Zilberman in one of their videos.[19]

Since 2016, Anatoly starts solo streaming on YouTube, moving to Twitch in 2017, where most of his audience and popularity came from. Since that, most of his content are politics- and philosophy-related reaction videos, but also debates and interviews with various Internet personalities, such as a Russian imperialist and nationalist Egor Prosvirnin [ru] (1986–2021),[20] philosopher and founder of Eurasianism movement Alexander Dugin,[21][22] a libertarian activist Mikhail Svetov,[23] Napoleonic historian Yevgeny Ponasenkov [ru],[24] and journalist Oleg Kashin.[25] Starting in 2021, Anatoly is also a frequent guest of a Canadian Russian-language radio station "Radio VERA".

"The Whopper Wars"

On 8 January 2019, Anatoly had a stream with a Russian left-wing tech blogger and streamer Stas Vasilyev, known as "Ai, Kak Prosto!" ("Oh, How Easy!" in Russian),[26] where the latter tried to reestablish himself in public eyes after Anatoly's derogatory and mocking reaction to one of Stas's political videos.[27] The final stream gathered a record 12K online views, starting a long-spanning conflict between the two. Around that time, Uebermarginal also met Russian communist writer and blogger Dmitry "Goblin" Puchkov's former associate Sergei Ivanov,[28] nicknamed "Producer Ivanov", with whom he then had several broadcasts until it was announced by them that a fan convention in Moscow is due to take place in March 2020, which coincided with Maddyson's 32nd birthday of 8 March.[29] Later that year, he briefly came to Russia for the first time in 10 years, appearing as a guest on Prosvirnin's channel czar.tv, expressing positive remarks of Moscow's infrostructure and environment change and meeting his then-love interest Irina.[30]

The controversial event gathered a lot of criticism even before it started, with Prosvirnin criticizing Ivanov's involvment with the project and publicly calling the coming meeting a "freak show". The entertaining part of the event included an impersonator of Stas Vasiliev,[31] an impersonator of "Rabbi Zilberman" walking on all fours,[32] and champagne bottles branded "Viski iz moyey pipiski" (Whiskey out of my dick). Several of Anatoly's invited colleagues, who had previously quarreled with Ivanov, complained that they've been mistreated by organizers, and that the Whoppers they've ordered came in late and already cooled, leaving the event early. One of them, Vladislav Zhmilevsky, who flew to Moscow from Petrozavodsk, Karelia,[33] later appeared at Prosvirnin's stream,[34] complaining about the overall level of organization during the event. Anatoly's response was emotional, he accused both of betrayal, ceasing all collaborations with the two since that.[35] The conflict intensified rapidly with Ivanov harassing Prosvirnin's girlfriend during their streams, sending sarcastic donations, as a result Prosvirnin began threatning Ivanov with his ties to ultranationalist militias and them knowing the location of Ivanov's house in Tver Oblast, allegedly sending him a picture of the house's roof in the scope of a sniper rifle.[36]

The overall financial flop and negative feedback buried the idea of Uebermarginal's fan event tour across Russia's biggest cities, which the Moscow convention was intended to open, along with the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in the country. While Anatoly returned to Oregon, his producer Ivanov, still being at working relations with Anatoly after signing a one-year contract and, from his own words, suffering from depression at the time, continued trying his luck at getting more recognition through teasing and provoking popular streamers, sending them huge donations, which he called "danaan donations". Around late 2020, Ivanov starts digging up Stas Vasiliev's driving fines, accusing him of traffic violation,[37] which Stas denied at first, but then stated the fines were issued after his wife made some minor violations driving his car.[38] In December, Ivanov sends a group of masked individuals to Stas's studio in Lobnya, Moscow Oblast, to film the surroundings and scatter dog food to feed the local rats; Ivanov later visited the Lobnya studio himself.[39] The conflict escalated once again, with Stas doxing Ivanov's wife name and workplace;[40] also breaking his ties with Yury Khovansky after the latter urged the two to reconcile;[41] the anonymous callings coming about house minings to one of Stas's colleagues' parents;[42] another anonymous calls coming on behalf of Ivanov of explosives set in several Leningrad Oblast schools; firings of the LDPR staff connected to Khovansky, who was a voluntary assistant of the party's deputy Vasily Vlasov at the time; and threats of imprisonment coming from both sides.

It culminated in January 2021, after Ivanov, while apparently suffering from exacerbation of mental health problems, builded a theory about a neo-Nazi criminal group, consisting of Stas, Prosvirnin, and several others, sponsored by a Russian banker Oleg Tinkov, conspiring to kill or incarcerate him, and cutted his ties with former friends, including Uebermarginal and Khovansky. The ambulance, called by his wife, was taking Ivanov to a mental hospital in Moscow, while he recorded audio messages, threatning to call the Chechen diaspora for offending Islam, as he identifies himself as Muslim.[43] After staying in hospital for some time and taking medication, Ivanov's condition stabilized, with him moving to his mother's flat and retracting what he previously said. Nontheless, the conflict sparked an outrage on the Internet, particularly the anonymous imageboard Dvach, which users started digging up information on conflict's participants, which resulted indirectly in Khovansky's arrest and 7-month imprisonment, after an anonymous denunciation coming of his 2012 video where he singed an offensive song about the children killed during the 2002 Moscow theater hostage crisis, saying that it was performed online in 2018.[44]

Political and religious views

Uebermarginal initially identified himself as a Stalinist in his first YouTube videos and MadFM broadcasts, translating Stalin's works for university, publicly admiring and mimicing a Russian Soviet-sympathizing blogger and writer Dmitry "Goblin" Puchkov. During the 2016 US presidential election, he supported neither Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton. He began leaning more right-wing after meeting his fellow colleague streamer Jeszy Sarmat around 2013–2014. Nowadays he identifies as more conservative, fearsomely defending the second amendment and moving to a Republican county in Oregon in 2019. During the 2020 election, he supported Tulsi Gabbard, switching to Trump after she lost the primaries.[45] Anatoly also identifies as pro-life[46] and pagan.[47]

Seminar on Syntax

In 2019 Anatoly got donation for made a Seminar on Syntax. As of 2022, things are right where they started.[48]
