Political views
Jacob has mixed political stances and opinions, however is generally democratic socialist. He does not support either of the two main political parties in the United States, both calling them out for being incompetent, but says that the Democrats are "the lesser of two evils". He denounced Donald Trump for inciting the United States Capitol attack in 2021 and has likened him to Benito Mussolini.

He has condemned the government of the People's Republic of China for its practice of placing ethnic minorities and dissidents in re-education camps, likening it to the concentration camps of Nazi Germany. He has also criticized the PLA's "un-natural" strength as demonstrated during the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests and compared the Chinese Communist Party to "Ingsoc in disguise", jokingly stating that they had "escaped from the confines of fiction".

He supports Israel but he also sympathizes with the Palestinians, stating that "Jews and Arabs need to live in peace". He condemns all Jihadist terrorist groups, calling them "false Islamists" and made the Patagonian government denounce ISIS in 2018 for "all past terrorist acts done against the West".

He is an avid supporter of the government of the Republic of China, ultimately revoking its recognition of the People's Republic of China and calling it "illegitimate". He has also refused recognition to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea), calling it "a Chinese puppet". He has also refused to recognize the One-China Policy, which he derides as being "draconian".

He also condemns Vladimir Putin for the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, and mocked Putin calling him a reincarnation of Nazi German leader Adolf Hitler. He has also denounced Alexander Lukashenko for "silencing rightful dissidents" and Bashar al-Assad for "blaming America on airstrikes when he brought this upon himself and his own people". Although Jacob is largely anti-authoritarianism, he thinks that while a hypothetical World War III scenario would be the only way to eradicate authoritarianism, he sees it as unnecessary and violent.
