When playing video games is too hard so you have to stream react content.

    he’s just trying to build a community of other mentally unwell people so they can jerk each other off and suck the shit out of Trumps ass.

    I'm remarkably jealous of my blind girlfriend right now.

    My favorite reaction video is from Josh Strife Hayes doing a 100 minute reaction to his own 20 minute video https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=D5hJ9jhVlXY&t=3s&pp=2AEDkAIBygUjSm9zaCBzdHJpZmUgaGF5ZXMgcmVhY3RzIHRvIGhpbXNlbGY%3D

    It's almost like a dumbass mentally slow adult who plays video games for a living and lives in filth might not have educated opinions

    Idk when society started depending on twitch game streamers for political insight but it's really been fucking with my head. Sorry bro, WoW raid experience doesn't exactly translate to expert on international relations.

    Wait, you're telling me I don't get educated about International geo-political affairs by standing in the fire of a raid boss?

    Then where did I get all my actual geo-political knowledge from? Reading? Education? Fuck off with that.

    There are actually a few twitch streamers that have political experience who stream about politics. They've run for office, or worked in D.C., so they have some interesting insights.

    But that's not Asmongold by a longshot.

    It's a lot easier to amplify shitty opinions through stealthily promoting shut-ins that "organically" spread the right poison than to try and turn a journalist or a legitimate artist into a mouth piece. Peter Theil probably loves boosting characters like this with bots.

    I... Uh don't want to know, but at this point, pretty much have too, I'd also hope that googling "blood and cum wall" whatever you're talking about would be the first result, but anyone want to save me a Google? *For anyone wondering I guess he had some kind of dental work and would wipe blood on the wall due to depression or whatever his base eats up. I'm depressed AF I don't let my body fluids linger much longer than a day, definitely don't steam them

    I've noticed he does a shit ton of videos on everything. I've looked up recent events like the NDP race card thing that happened recently in Canada and he was one of the only sources.

    I think he has no life, and all he does is youtube videos, then he must get suggested by the algorithm that indexes his videos.

    You can "don't like this video" and then tell them you "don't like this channel" on any video that gets recommended.

    From your youtube wall, click the tree dots aligned vertically next to the title of the video under the thumbnail and select "Don't recommend this channel" from the drop down menu.

    You will have to do this for his alt channels and the twich clip channels as you see them on your youtube wall. Very soon he should vanish and you won't hear about him except maybe from other channels who shits on him.

    Very useful to get rid of shitty AI chanels as well.

    People need to stop sharing his crap then, downvote these posts, all i hear about is how the guy is awful and stupid and for some reason people are like "let me share this awful stupid person others will like it" I dont get it, if he sucks then dont repost crap dont make memes of him, let the rest of us who never heard of him enjoy actual good posts instead of posts about some dogshit streamer

    Him and his fans deserve to be mocked. The next time you interact with a fan of his, ask them why he wont take an IQ test on stream if thinks Africans naturally have a lower IQ.

    I looked this up and every single study reports lower iq in Africa. Asians have the highest. Is this bullshit?

    Yes. Firstly, iq tests have a bias to the culture that created them. It's based on the sorts of problems that that culture values. You can't use it to compare to different populations with different cultures.

    Secondly, depending on what source you found, the study might have been run by racists with an agenda.

    Thirdly, Africa is a huge continent with wildly varying cultures. You can just average those results together and get anything useful out of it, unless you have a racist agenda.

    Well yeah everyone knows the iq test is not a good metric for actual intelligence.

    So those cultures technically do have lower iq scores.

    I don't personally believe in iq tests though.

    I linked a video that want into more detail, but Asmon was repeating a bad report that Afericans have a 70IQ. Even when the test wasn't made for them and it's dishonest to think that a different in IQ is meaningful in this instance, that's still a dishonest number.

    I can't find a single study that doesn't report low iq in somalia. Why has it only been studied by racists? Every single study?

    I know iq tests are bullshit but the numbers are right here.

    Just going to say again I don't believe iq scores mean anything. Obviously the testing on science isn't going to go well in cultures that are dominated by cultist religious folk. What about math though?

    My takeaway from your video is just a really long winded way of saying that you get good iq scores if you are good at taking iq tests. Which happens to be where people are most educated.

    This really all comes down to whether a person believes that an iq score is a valid way to determine overall intelligence.

    He's huge on all the streaming platforms, so you can't really ignore him. Clueless people will have his content force fed to them by the algorithm, and some will end up becoming fans.

    Pre-empting that by pointing out how much of a disgusting pathetic loser and worthless piece of shit he is might help someone make an informed choice before watching his content.

    No, people cannot make an informed choice without information.

    Part of making informed choice is to listen to arguments. You just postulate to avoid this guy because you don't like what he says.

    I can tell from your diminished reasoning abilities that you're probably an Asmongold fan. There's not much I can type here to help you, but I'll try to keep it short and use simple words and bullet points:

    • I have heard him talk
    • by hearing him talk, I have become informed about him
    • using this information, I have made the informed decision to not listen to him further

    I can try simplifying it further if you still don't get it.

    • I have heard him talk too
    • by hearing him talk I have become informed about him.
    • using this information I built an informed opinion that some of his takes are correct, some are retarded, but most of them are fun.

    Stream of consciousness streamer + politics == hot shit... Asmongler was always fucked, but edgy attic dwelling yet mostly harmless and amusing to what he is now is quite a departure. It's like he took up the place on twitch to counter our favourite prada clad champagne socialist Hasan. The modern need for sychophancy is psychotic.
