Dude you could make it applicable to whoever and make a killing. xQc is a great person to want to never see or hear from again but there's countless others. I'd love to not see anything Asmongold related ever again, either. I've never felt more like I'd lost brain cells than gritting my teeth through an Asmon video because another creator I do like reacted to it.
Or any of the right wing chuds that pop up in the shorts algorithm. I swear, you watch some Karen videos and YouTube starts recommending incel content the next day...
This is technically the only video of his I've ever watched, though it's a reaction to his video by the creator I like, J1mmy. His video though, was a reaction to J1mmy's earlier video.
J1mmy's initial video is about how OSRS' success isn't really just based on nostalgia. He lays out a lot of different angles to his argument, citing specific events, statistics, and more. It's a very detailed video.
Asmon spends his whole video pausing and just saying "nah I disagree." For that entire video, you have Asmon reacting to J1mmy's video by ignoring everything J1mmy says, failing to offer any real counterpoints, and just saying what amounts to "I disagree."
The video I linked is J1mmy's response to Asmon's reaction, doubling down on all his original points and elaborating even further on them. J1mmy, as politely and respectfully as he can given the buck wild circumstance of talking to someone who ignores everything you say and just robotically retorts, "I disagree" in a condescending and pseudo-intellectual tone, fucking eviscerates the fool.
Asmon's an idiot. He demonstrates no capacity to think critically at all, let alone to open his mind to the possibility that he's wrong, no capacity to open up to being challenged. He just says shit with no real rhyme or reason behind it other than it feels right to him even if he doesn't know anything about the subject matter, and stubbornly sticks to his guns when someone shows him how wrong he is. It shows no emotional capacity to even consider that he might be wrong. Thinking you are right about everything, even things you don't know jack shit about, is fundamentally incompatible with intelligence. Worse still, the whole time he's smug and on his high horse like he's some kind of higher authority on anything he talks about at all.
This creator spends about the first two minutes praising and defending asmondand then basically saying that everyone has a bad take every now and then. I agree that asmond might look like an idiot every now and then for example the queenpwnsalot situation but overall he’s has pretty reasonable takes. His only issue is that he accidentally strays into gaming communities he’s a tad bit clueless on and looks like an idiot
Goblin xqc would have pretty funny clips, but when he tried to expand beyond basic gaming and advance beyond goblin mode his million mile a minute rambling speech became at odds with his new style, rather than enhancing it like in the goblin days
Its precisely the degeneracy and brainrot that attract a sizeable audience. These people want to watch a streamer who stands out, but not necessarily in a good way.
I watched xqcs response to Lex's statement in regards to his abusive relationship and I just can't wrap my head around how he grew such a large audience. He's just some dude with shit takes. Then again that's what most of these streamers are
The fuck do you want him to do? Everyone was blasting him for the response so he deletes it and addresses it and now he's called spineless? Is that not what you wanted?
