When I watch certain of his Youtube clips, etc… some things bug me off. What do you think of it?
Whatever political stance he may hold, or whether he is conscious about it, he is an entrypoint.
His content is uncritical dogpile reactions and no-fact-checks perpetuating drama. Combined with zero effort community weeding.
While theoretically neutral, such hate cesspools are the culture that fuels the alt-right.
Oh look. Another “if you’re not directly supporting my goals, you’re the political opposition” person.
A vote not for x is a vote for y, amirite?
That’s literally how the alt right works. Spot the right environment where things can gradually escalate from a comment or a private message.
As a Louis Rossmann fan I don’t generally like the slippery slope fallacy, but goddamn are you worried about some nothing. You seriously think dudes watching him do his gamer sleaze bits are gonna be all “yeah I think I’ll be a right winger now.”?
It’s called plausible deniability and regardless of the intent there is a direct effect.
You can be mad about it all you’d like, it won’t change the reality.
Beautiful. Aaaaand right click.
Nah, they all bad. It’s just a bunch of talking heads trying to get into the money club and none of them are gonna help my life any.
His audience definitely leans that way. I don’t get the impression that he has any agenda or conviction, but he consistently reacts to content that enables the alt-right. He’s been quite candid about getting into the react meta just for the money. Even so, he does seem to have unwittingly become an alt-right entry point.
It also feels that the money starts pouring in once a content creator taps towards the right. Much like criticism comes knocking if you go left.
Honestly don’t think he thinks much about politics
I don’t think he thinks much about anything really. He just puts on a show.
Haven’t watched it, looks like room-temperature IQ reaction content. Which can be really popular, I guess.
The dude’s whole brand is “I’m just a lazy dirty gamer guy”. He’s a spectacle, not a leader.
He strikes me as more a rube that occasionally picks up alt-right talking points than a dedicated follower. At least on one occasion he called out Moon, a shitty right wing video essayist, for lying, but he went really hard on anti-Sweet Baby Inc. content.
So I guess he could unintentionally? But intention doesn’t really matter here. His fanbase probably leans right too.
I once saw him being an utter piece of shit. A Bethesda writer got harassed on Twitter for being a writer on Fallout 4. Long story short, some jackass manchild on Reddit shitposted something utterly wrong and it made sense to other menchildren and they attacked said guy which hurt him a lot. So this assmold guy made fun of him, calling him pathetic and acting like being hurt is something disgusting. And it dragged on forever.
He is a piece of shit. So are his viewers for still watching his stuff.
Don’t know if he is alt right tho. But it doesn’t matter. Shit nonetheless.
He’s certainly unaware that his funny takes form opinions in young people’s minds.
No idea who that is lol
Some dirty slop Twitch streamer living with cockroaches who somehow garners a relatively large YT following and pops up in every freaking search result.
Eh, I don’t get alt-right vibes off him but he does often have controversial takes of things such as asking his followers to bully people who purchase mtx shit to put pressure on the game developer which I honestly find just beautiful.
Also earlier he didn’t really care about administering of his chat, and that caused it to become quite cesspool
I don’t believe he gives much of a shit either way about politics. I think he reacts which ever way he thinks the wind is blowing in order to get more clicks, and thereby, get more money. The only thing I ever saw him get passionate about was when he was going apeshit over Chinese bot-farmers in WoW. I figure Blizzard must have paid him a huge wad to shut him up, because I hardly see him comment on gaming anymore, but I hardly watch him anymore either because he’s just too annoying.
Isn’t that the guy talking about MMOs? Haven’t watched his content in a while
It’s the smelly guy who lives in a pile of garbage, or not? I can’t believe people care what he thinks, aside from maybe video games. But even then, i’d look for a better role model
I don’t know why you get downvoted. He literally lives with cockroaches.
What’s this about the cockroach thing? I’ve seen it mentioned a few times. I’m out of the loop.
As I’ve said already. He lives with cockroaches, and he thinks that’s totally normal.
He’s just a genuine moron.
