HE COMMENTED ON CIVIL RIGHTS:
When asked: Would you have said the same thing during the civil rights movement?
Here's the link to the video clips.
He also said this:
"What gives you the unique moral authority to break the law because of what you believe in?... It's narcissistic and entitled. That's insane. It's like these people think the world revolved around their issue..."
The pic is just a pic I found of him.
Edit: Also, if people think he doesn't matter, he's literally more popular than Hasan, especially when it comes to gaming shit.
Block a liberal's car and a fascist is slightly delayed in getting to their destination.
P sure the dude is an old school NEET/4channer type more than anything else
Man who thinks the world revolves around his own personal comfort wants to tell people protesting genocide that the world doesn't revolve around them.
Legit fascist. I'm not even kidding or exaggerating in the slightest. People who spout shit like this or agree with it would not care about colonialism or slavery or anything else that we now recognize as "bad" back when they occurred if doing so inconvenienced them in the slightest. So, where would that leave the people who would be suffering? Legit couldn't be trusted.
People like this legit would not have fought the Nazis
Asmongold during 1930s Germany: I do not care about the problems of the communists or the socialists or the trade unionists or the Jews but I do care if these people bomb the trains to protest their plights. In that case, I shall support the government! What gives you the right to break laws -
Asmongold during the 1940s Germany: Wait a second? Why am I being sent to a "labor camp"? I just want to play my games in peace! Somebody help!
Asmongold is American so in the 40s he'd just be parroting American wartime propaganda against the Nazis lol
If they lived in an Allied country then they would. They're not exactly independent thinkers. If the bourgeois parties are telling them to fight the Nazis, they're going to fight the Nazis.
And if they lived in an Axis power they'd gladly fight for the Nazis too
Everyone, listen here, the courageous centrist has piped up to give his opinion of the subject.
"both sides are bad"
Incredible. This is one for the history books.
It's not even that. Like, everyone memes on centrists but this take is, somehow, even worse. This dude is saying he literally doesn't care about what's happening (genocide) and that if you try to make him care in a way that inconveniences him even a little bit (by blocking a road) he will actively choose to support the side committing the genocide.
I don't even have words.
It's kind of fascinating to me the level of brainrot some streamers get after time. This guy, Ethan from h3h3. It's like their brain is just goo. There's so many clips where they can't string a thought together. Is literally just what they are now? It's sad.
Asmon's actually pretty articulate, he is just extremely selfish and honest. He doesn't give a shit about anyone. That's his entire ethos and shtick, being a hyperindividualist asshole.
Oh really? Maybe it's just the clips I've seen. Him defending reaction content was kinda incoherent to me (at least if I remember right)
He has very absolutist hot takes and then rationalizes himself backwards into it - similar to Amber on CTH tbh. He's pretty good at the rationalizing actually, it's how he can justify being a multi-millionaire who lives in squalor and filth and staying up for days on end and only eating steaks. It's how he can live such a weird alien lifestyle but justify it to himself and his audience as the most efficient, logical way to be (ironically, but not actually). He's an avatar of a lot of gamer's worst anti-social tendencies exaggerated to the extreme, which is why a lot of his audience probably watches is they relate but don't take it to the sweaty anti-social extreme that he does. He is the same way in his overall mentality, idealist and to the extreme about everything because he never goes outside except to drive to mcdonalds - everything is a hypothetical in a vacuum.
Remember, WoW players hate everything and everyone including themselves. They hate the game they play. They hate Blizzard. They hate casuals. They hate tryhards. They hate how easy the game is now (it's never been harder). Their blood is black bile and everything keeps getting worse but they keep paying blizzard money to re-run the same experiences over and over to wring dry any fondness or nostalgia they once had.
Maybe I'm misremembering, and it was actually someone else. It has been a while since I watched it. Moistcritical looks pretty similar so maybe it was him. Or maybe the clips weren't as bad as I remember.
he streams for like several hours a day. I'm sure there are segments of him zoning out because he hasn't eaten a vegetable in a month. A lot of it is just criticism of games or game industry and reacting to people, it didn't get real chuddy and gamergate-y until the past 6 months or so.
zoning out because he hasn't eaten a vegetable in a month
hell of an excuse
it's how he can justify being a multi-millionaire who lives in squalor and filth and staying up for days on end and only eating steaks.
Imagine being this much of a fucking freak. If you're not going to spread the wealth with family or the broader community, at least spend it on yourself. Bring back ostentatious display of wealth.
They hate how easy the game is now (it’s never been harder)
old man mode on Back in my day, endgame raiding required 40 people. Try again, young one. old man mode off
40 people all hitting their 2 button rotations on a 40 second boss that has 0 mechanics lol
That was only in molten core. From Black Wing Lair onwards it got nasty. Still have nightmares of the first boss from there.
Shit peaked in Naxramas. Herding 40 morons and doing that bullshit was insane.
“Nasty”
You mean 1.5 minute fights with 1 mechanic? Half of the bosses in BWL are just drakes that you need to face away from the raid and DPS. It became the meta to pull multiple bosses at once to speed things up because it was so easy.
It’s nothing even compared to Ulduar or ICC, which are cakewalks compared to anything from Cata onward. Fights exponentially increased in complexity, length, number checks, etc.
Take a look at Spine of Deathwing, Al’Akir, Ragnaros (Firelands) or Lich King, there’s about 30 mechanics and they last 10-15 minutes and a single error wipes the raid.
In addition, rotations for most classes got way more complex to perform at a high level.
In classic even the casuals were doing speed runs, the ‘difficulty’ of vanilla came from bad computers and internet and lack of knowledge about how the game worked. People did Naxx on hardcore without any deaths to their characters. People had sub-50 minute Naxx clears. Its difficulty was greatly exaggerated.
I raided naxx in classic and played every expansion of wow up to legion. Trust me on this. The game objectively got much, much harder at the highest level and it’s a big reason why the subscriber base shrank. The biggest ever drop off of players was in T11 in Cata when the wrath kids got a dose of reality
The first fight was one of your raid taking control of the boss(one could mess that up and the boss would take out much of the raid in the meantime), taking out various gizmos why enemies spawned all around and attacked the boss. So you have to get rid of the spawns or they'll yeet the boss, which then blows up and yeets the raid. Adds were spellcasters, melee and melee dragons. One tactic was kiting the adds around. My raid settled for killing all but the dragons (they had far more hp) and take them down when there was a window of time, problem: The kiters had to stay alive, if one kiter died the dragons would snack the healers.
Once all gizmos are down, you only had to kill the boss, that part was rather easy then, unless you took too many casualties.
In short it went from barely any mechanics in Molten Core to that, with nothing in between.
The second boss was a pure and simple brutal damage check. Everyone got extra mana/rage/whateverrogueshad regeneration but took huge fire damage per second and would blow up eventually. During the process of blowing up one had no skill costs and almost no cooldowns. After that, I tend to agree it was quite comfy in the Lair.
Yes the difficulty came from a lack of knowledge, that was part of the fun, figuring out how things worked and keeping the raid together during that time. Honestly I'd agree with you, I would have dropped out too once that was gone. Left during Burning Crusade, didn't have the patience for it anymore.
Oh I remember, I remember all 500 fucking fights I've done. Out of the top 100 most difficult, not a single one was from Classic or TBC
Hila is israeli and "served" in the IDF. It doesn't take that much to assume she has some takes on the situation.
She bragged about going on a ride along to destroy a home once because she was bored.
This was before they moved to LA. Pretty sure their channel started in Isreal.
Ah, I read it as living in not lived. Teach me to comment early in morning
"The real world has rules just like the games I play have rules."
Okay oberkommando dipshitkreuz
Video games are notorious for having characters that are law abiding citizens.
What is he fucking talking about he doesn't leave his house he doesn't have a real job fuck you fuck you fuck you
Like most gamers he's enraged at the thought of even being inconvenienced let alone actually meeting a human being that cares about others or isn't white
What gives Israel and USA the unique moral authority to break the law because of what they believe in?
They don't block twitch streamers' roads when they're on their way to get their chicken trendies. They block all brown peoples' roads to get life saving aid.
The highway of death, which was done by Russia in the call of duty.
I wonder how he feels about blocking the roads that aid trucks are on...
He probably doesn't care. That doesn't affect him. In the clip he's reacting to, Hasan is trying to bring attention to literal mass graves that are being dug up in Gaza hospitals where hundreds of Palestinian men, women, and children have been found - after having been executed. And he just cuts Hasan off and says he doesn't care, he's going to side against the protesters because how dare they block roads.
The protesters blocking roads doesn’t even affect him either since they spend it all day indoors anyways streaming
Still he he can only imagine this situation affecting him in the form of his doordash potentially getting delayed.
The person who wipes his bleeding gums off on his wall every morning and hasnt eaten a fruit in years is a shitty person, what a shock.
Yeah he eats steak or mcdonals every meal and hasn't ever tried like 95% of fruits. He grew up in poverty and his parents passed away, its sad to witness honestly and sad that its played off as a joke that he's disgusting and lives in squalor. He's extremely rich now and could afford maids or a new place easily but it's part of his brand to be a removed gamer. I think some mental illness is at play here for the continued life in squalor and only eating 1 unhealthy thing when he's a multi-millionaire.
Dude have the same problems as XVIII century sailors lol
Did his mother die? Last time I watched him he had apparently bought his childhood home from his mother, since she couldn't afford to keep it after his dad passed away. In general all of his life-stories are horribly depressing and sad, which is why he makes sure to tell them with a certain tone/persona.

Same with Boogie2988, part of the brand
Sure, but that doesn't mean that all of the stories are made up / fake. it just means he found a way to monetize them, which while not exactly kosher in my book, isn't something I can blame people for if they grow up in poverty in Texas.
this man absolutely has scurvy (it's the Owl City in the background and the multiple things of moldy Wendy's chili that really brings this video into cinema quality)
I can't help but feel for this guy, because I've fallen into the same squalor vicious cycle when I've had really bad depressive episodes, I'm coming out of one right now (I hope). That being said, as depressed as I've been, I have never turned off my empathy or good sense, so fuck him.
Calories in, calories out. The soda, cake and fast food along with some steaks is all that he eats, he doesn't eat anything else. Without eating any actual meals, it's hard to get enough calories in to maintain or even gain weight.
I thought constantly snacking on high calorie foods was actually worse for you than eating full meals?
Yes it's much worse for your health, but at the end of the day if you eat 2500 calories of junk food, and your daily maintenance is 2500 calories, you will not gain weight, your weight will stay the same. Though as I said there are serious health concerns, some people in the comments are saying that this guy has scurvy.
Okay, I guess I feel like it'd be pretty easy to get above you maintenance weight eating such carb dense food all the time, especially if you just game all day.
For a lot people it is easy to get above maintenance while eating junk food, as junk food is not satiating, but clearly not for him if he's skinny. I also used to be underweight while eating pure junk, because it was all I ate.
Also, a gram of carbohydrate has 4 calories. A gram of protein has 4 calories. A gram of fat has 9 calories. So the most calorie dense foods are fats, like oils, butter, and nut butters. But it's hard for most people to eat a lot of fats, and very easy to eat a lot of refined carbohydrates. Because of satiation again.
I was friends with a guy that had a really bad addiction to WoW and later similar games and ate only fastfood and snack cakes. He got frighteningly skinny after a few years. He was so locked into the grind that he wouldn't eat because that would involve logging off for long enough to go buy food.
He would game non-stop all night only coming out of his room to use the bathroom. His sleep schedule would revolve around server downtimes and zone resets. It was really sad, the last time I saw him he was working at a supermarket and looked so scrawny, pale and unhealthy.
It is worse for you. Being skinny does not automatically equate to being healthy.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Im pretty sure he only eats like a potato and some shitty $5 dollar steak for meals.
wiping blood on your walls is pretty sanitary compared to using the smell of a rotting rat carcass baking in the morning sun as an alarm clock
He did do this and talked about doing it on video lmao. I know, it sounds so fucking stupid that you probably assumed I just made up something absurd and revolting for fun.
Well idk both things just keeps happening for no reason.
I wanna go back to when gamers were ridiculed and made to remain underground rather than Twitch streams being mainstream
Anime and games should be both done alone in the dark, with shame
Guy's brain been fried lately. Youtube algo always loved him, but it didn't bother me before because it was mostly just generic gamer stuff. Then the last few months it's almost exclusively clips of him whining about how woke stuff is.
It's a good grift I think. Or maybe it's one that once they fall into that trap, they can't get out of it. Being a "Anti-woke" youtuber chases away any decent audience, and that audience won't be coming back, so they're forced to pander to these losers for profit.
Some of the other OTK members seem to have hinted that he leans into it more than he actually believes because he drives viewers.
Who cares, doesn't matter why he’s saying it, he’s putting my life and the lives of my comrades in danger. So why even mention that some people “hinted” that he’s just being a piece of shit for money.
Me saying that some of his colleagues say that he leans into it for views isn't me casting moral judgement on what he's doing or excusing it. I'm responding to the person above me who said that he's grifting with a comment saying that's also apparently what some of the people in his org seem to think.
Oh my apologies, I must have misread/misinterpreted your above comment
My guy has been giving me the heebi jeebies for years now, fucking despise all the fucking ASMONGOLD REACTS TO garbage-ass channels too. Every time I block one a few more pop up in the algorithm just to torment me personally
In the good old days people like this would've been driven from the tribe and left to starve come winter.
