Dev is center-left, which a lot of the GamerGate guys started out at. But while most of the guys moved to the right (like Sargon, for example), Dev has stubbornly stuck to the center left. He also unironically consumes a lot of bread tube content by his own admission. And on top of that, his bisexuality and trans fetishism leads him to blindly defend most of the trans insanity.

He also battles with his audience when they call him out. I think that he actually hates his audience.
