Since when is this dude a political streamer. Wasn't he popular for WoW and he was a PoS then. Why is anybody listening to what he has to say now?
It's the natural progression for a 20-something piece-of-shit gamer edgelord. When he hits middle age he pivots into being a miserable racist piece-of-shit bore.
Middle age?!
Yeah that was my assumption because he looks middle-aged to me. Found out after I wrote that he's like 35? How the fuck can you look that haggard when you're a 30-something content creator raking in the money from your parents' basement!
He doesn't go to the gym, he's not active, he's got shit genetics, he lives in filth, and actively avoids washing.
It's not hard to look like shit when you go out of your way to on top of having hit the ugly tree in the genetic lottery.
Man, I'd look elderly to you I guess. How old are you?
I'm middle aged.
Seems that there’s an endless amount of money for right wing social and political commentators.
This is it.
All you need is to parrot what more popular accounts say and have a phone and you can make money as a political streamer.
which russia is happy to pay, the political grifters went silent immediately when people found out they were being paid/consultancy through a llc backed by russia.
He is 35 years old. Just imagine that. 35 years old and still not capable to use the brain properly.
He was never smart. And he still lives with his parents. And he doesn’t even go to a dentist. He is representing a lot of central US people.
I wish people would just come to terms with the fact that gaming, for whatever reason, seems to breed these ballsack-looking conservative gamers who are willing to do anything and everything to avoid having to keep down a real job. I've met a dozen of them in my life and they're all the same. They're all rich kids who couldn't survive a single performance review.
he discovered the grift and decided to get in on it. Even his father called him out on it after he called Palestinians "inferior". that's all this is. He's an act, a con artist, a grifter.
a guy that claimed streaming on his main asmongold account and getting paid with subs was "too stressful and causing anxiety" thus started streaming on an alt account that eventually became bigger than his main and makes him more money too.
And the people that watch him are just morons of the lowest caliber.
I think he must attract a certain amount of viewers from the "train wreck" effect. He literally was using the stench from the sun hitting a decomposing rat corpse in his room as an "alarm clock" for a while. He has had roaches crawl across him live and not reacted.
So I can kind of understand getting some sort of twisted satisfaction that you're doing better, or having the same sort of fascination people have with train wrecks and disasters.
What I don't get is why anyone cares about his takes on anything. The man willingly lives in decomposing filth. He's clearly not a source of knowledge or good opinions on fucking anything.
So here's my take on this, because I've seen similar personalities make similar pivots.
This guy is a disgusting, bumbling idiot, but he speaks with certainty and condescension. The curious onlooker will see him, get trapped by the mindset you describe ("oh man, this guy's a trainwreck, let's see how much worse off he is than me"), find it funny and continue watching.
After establishing some sort of "trust" with the audience ("I'm a big dumb idiot who makes you laugh") he pulls out the manipulative speech. "You'd have to be stupid to-"; "this guy's a retard!"; "It doesn't make any sense", etc. Once you get to this part of the steam, you've already established that the dude's an idiot, but you also think he's funny. You're faced with the decision to either laugh along with his "jokes", or "accept" that this buffoon is "more educated" on a topic than you are. The fragile, uninformed audience these people are after are much more likely to go the latter route.
