Calling Asmongold the "the worst person you know" is fucking pathetic. He gets consistently shit on by journalists for having the ability to think for himself.
So then what was the point of your initial comment? I said no one should model themselves after him. You replied that that was a harsh statement, but if you don’t think anyone should aspire to be like someone else what is the problem?
I don't think he's a shitty person. He doesn't actively harm or exploit anyone just spergs out on the internet playing Vidya. If every Texan was an asmongold it would be a half decent state.
He definitely is a member of a subculture, I don't watch much of his content but I appreciate the moderating effect he has on gamer culture in general. It would be easy for him to sell out to the right wing corporate media machine but he hasn't.
There are so many people who are not just worse than him but intentionally pretending to be the worst person they can imagine for monetary gain.
Do you habitual judge people entirely on their fuckability? I mean, I have little opinion of Asmongold except what I see other people saying about him on the internet, but that seems like a weirdly sexualized take on things.
When Im talking to an obvious teenaged boy it’s safer to talk in terms they understand. A 15 year old might get why Asmongold isunfuckable but they might not understand why adults would hold him in disdain regardless of what he does.
Playing by someone else's rules means they dictate the conversation. You have significantly less power. If you want people to act like adults, like reasonable people, try treating them that way.
It may not work, but it's far more likely to do so than constantly talking down to them.
Have you been paying attention to this conversation? Maybe go back and reread before replying to me. You might find yourself thinking differently when you see my comments and the replies that I got from the start
Ah yes because appearance equals value in this dogshit world of yours. Way to admit you dont like him because he is actually popular despite that fact.
Also a kid using lemmy? get real. Most of us here are 21+ at the least.
