Talking about how stupid streamers are, just make them more popular.

Just stop fucking posting about them

No one wants to hear about them, even if it's jokes at their expense, because the vast majority of them (especially this shit stain) have obvious and vlearly sever mental issues.

I wish I knew nothing about this guy, but he's clearly fucked in the head. So punching at him is punching down for anyone of even a below average intelligence.

I'll never understand how these people got popular.. from what I can tell they just sit in front of a camera and scroll some feed and talk about random stuff without any actual expertise or credible information. How is that entertaining? Why would people choose to watch that over shows that have interviews with actual experts and are much more informative.

Unfortunately I believe it's because theyre all just like him. It's their safe echo chamber where they get to listen to "their guy" belittle and punch down all the people they don't like. He's the "politically incorrect" voice they love to hear and he constantly reinforces their worldview.

They aren't looking for experts, they're looking for fellow tribe mates to reinforce their existing biases.

I’ll never understand how these people got popular

Because people post about how stupid they are.

That creates an incentive for them to say dumber shit, creating a feedback loop where the ones with the least shame become the most popular.

Most of the people viewing streams by people like that, are "hate watching" but that inflates the views and people not in on the joke thinks it's popular views and believe it.

Like that old Mitchell and Webb sketch, views are views.

The ironic part is they were talking about Trump's show that led to him becoming president.

I suspect it's a quirk of memetics. These personalities survive the selection process, for some reason. Like animals that develop strange mutations to survive in harsh environments.

Asmon started out as a popular WoW streamer. When it came to WoW he generally knew what he was talking about.

Unfortunately he transitioned to talking about shit he had no clue about. And much of his younger mostly male audience stuck with him. Because they're just as informed as he is. And he tells them what they want to hear.

I don't understand how cockroach man became the new spokesperson of Western supremacy/American racists but it's very fitting.

You shouldn't pick on Jordan Lund.
