Not only are the countries he is saying have "fine" refugees don't even speak English as an official language, Africa as a continent has the largest amount of countries that speak English:

Most other African countries speak French, Spanish or another European language as an official language. So what is the issue here? Many Africans have immigrated to Western countries and have integrated fine. It's insane that Twitch is allowing this kind of rhetoric to be displayed in full velocity on this platform.

It amazes me people listen to a guy who chooses to live in a filthy roach infested house.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Never watched him, but I assume you can smell his livestreams?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Didn't he have a roach electric itself by chewing through a cord and he just fucking left it there for months?

asmon rlly one of the dumbest mofos ive ever had the displeasure to be exposed too. Like most right wing grifters know they lie about shit to get their points across. This dude is so dumb he believes all of it

Are you racist? Are you misogynistic? If not can you pretend to be?

If so, modern social media would like to promote you. Apply now!

How is he not banned yet? I would have banned him just for not using deodorant.

Asmongold says stupid things and then only responds to the lowest hanging fruit.

He'll say we can't take refugees because XYZ, then people will respectfully counter his arguments, but he effortlessly ignores them.

Then someone calls him a loser or makes a silly argument and that's when he's "You see? This is the problem."

Just a circus act for idiots.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago

There is no point responding to right wing idiots; all of their speech is logical fallacy and bad faith rhetoric. They’re best ignored, or talked over. They can’t be bothered to respond to anyone, they just spout their own bullshit, no matter what anyone else says, so we as a society need to refuse to debate them or address them directly. Whatever they say just respond with another fact that refutes their entire existence

I started kind of liking this guy right before he ripped the mask off. This is the same thing that happened with Rogan. Started to like his content and within a few months he went full douchebag. I'm cursed.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 days ago

same here, I used to like his Warcraft stuff and thought his house tour being complete untamed chaos was so hilarious. never knew of his political stuff until he commented on gaza and I was instantly made aware of the reality of his views.

Baffles me why would anyone watch him at all. Maybe people watch him to see him destroy himself as in many other cases online. It it is that, then fuck all those enablers and let their life be a soulless, joyless, empty life.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

People connect with him because he feels relatable and "genuine" and if that boggles you, we who can type and read words vastly underestimate how powerful this kind of "don't give a shit how stupid people think I am" persona really is.

Why should we be at all surprised when people like Joe Rogan and Donald Trump himself are so popular with people for their "charisma." Charisma doesn't mean suave and smart, it means you can charm some certain segment of people, particularly those who can't tell the difference between confidence and dimwittedness.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I would debate that Asmongold has a Charisma. People, for the reason unbeknownst to me, are enjoying to watch other people destroy themselves. Typically, their target already shows some dysfunctional behavior. Asmon is textbook this case. There is no charisma. He is just attracting spectators by destroying his image and his personality. I saw same happen to many streamers and influencers and Asmon is not a special case. He is the case.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

It's reality TV for incels. Wow look at that unkempt guy in a filthy apartment who's good at video games. I'm not quite as bad as he is I guess I'll watch to make myself feel better about the sad life I live in butthole-town USA.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The part I like is that these fucking assholes will raise hell about "making things political!!!" if they happen to hear an opposing opinion.

I think they should all be hanged.

Can't agree with people who condone executions of any sort.

Freaky america, still stuck in medieval ages...

When you behave the way the people at the Nuremberg trials did, you deserve to be punished in the same way the people who were punished at the Nuremberg trials were.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (11 children)

Not even sure where to begin with. So my rational side tells me not to.

While i am open to all and any comparisons, no matter how much of a stretch, i would be really interested to hear who here acted like the literal nazis that stood trial at Nuremberg and how.

Then i would like to ask why is it important to kill people instead of imprisoning them. Justice? How is justice restored through 'revenge'? Maybe it does sate our sadism a bit but the injustice won't be undone. Is a rape victim helped when we rape the rapist? Does a murder victim come back to life after we kill the murderer? What is the goal?

Asmondgold is so far past being relevant. He was intolerable when he was simply making World of Warcraft videos.

[–] RampageDon 229 points 3 days ago (4 children)

Since when is this dude a political streamer. Wasn't he popular for WoW and he was a PoS then. Why is anybody listening to what he has to say now?

[–] [email protected] 165 points 3 days ago (8 children)

It's the natural progression for a 20-something piece-of-shit gamer edgelord. When he hits middle age he pivots into being a miserable racist piece-of-shit bore.

[–] [email protected] 81 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Seems that there’s an endless amount of money for right wing social and political commentators.

not only a racist but also a misogynist, a present-day gamergater, who is literally in 2025 still complaining that "video games used to be made for guys and now they're made for everyone" 🤦

Asmongold is a huge piece of shit. I never liked the dude. No idea why people listen to anything he says, dudes a grade A moron.

People like him have ruined the online gaming sphere with their low-life personalities and acting like racist children who just learned to talk.

This dude has been a well known shit head for years. It's not surprising to see him continue to be a well known shit head. Twitch, like most platforms, doesn't actually care what people say, as long as it drives engagement.

It's always the people you most suspect of being ignorant racists...

[–] [email protected] 81 points 3 days ago (8 children)

Please keep in mind this is a guy who, quite seriously, this is not made up...

... used to use a dead rat in his pigsty of a room as an alarm clock.

The sun would come in through the window, bake the rat corpse to the point of a striking pungent smell, and this is what would wake him up.

Again, I am not making this up, just a year or twoish back he earnestly explained this to all his viewers.

The man also very, very rarely brushes his teeth, and has frequent issues with his gums bleeding.

This is your basement dweller 4chan addict, who just so happened to win the streamer popularity contest.

On basically any topic other than World of Warcraft, he has no fucking clue what he is talking about.

I used to enjoy asmogold years ago when it was mostly just showing and talking about gaming (WoW mount offs etc)...then he started showing who he really was more and more and I noped out.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago

I don't get it. The first time I tuned into his stream he was screaming at his raid and being a complete ass in his disgusting neckbeard nest. Same thing the next few times I got curious enough to turn his stream on. At no point in time did he ever appear to not be a giant steaming pile of shit.

Why are we giving a guy who used a dead rat as an alarm, and smeared blood from his gums on his walls attention?

[–] [email protected] 30 points 3 days ago (1 children)

isn't this also the same guy who said he's ok with the genocide of Palestinians? (source)

[–] [email protected] 38 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Yep, he is pro trump and elon and anything nazi. But most of it is just his lack of intelligence. He will read a twitter post and 1sec later pronounce it as the truth on stream, without having any source. Hes a propaganda echo and unfortunately reflects the average American gamer pretty well. Should have stuck to gaming.

[–] [email protected] 52 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Same dude who got temp-banned from Twitch for actively calling for the literal genocide of Palestinians. Asmon is a piece of shit.

I see clips of this guy in my recommended videos section on youtube all the time. I never click on them and I have watch history turned off anyway so I wonder how it's deciding that I should watch these clips. Either way, I find it odd how signal-boosted this clown is. The gaming-to-politics pipeline is too strong.

When the fuck did Asmongold become the largest POLITICAL streamer?

He went from games, to reacts, to the largest political just because he says stupid hateful MAGA shit?

a black and white photo of people walking in front of Pier 14 on San Francisco's Embarcadero, with the "Raygun Gothic Rocketship" sculpture visible (dating the photo to sometime in 2010 or 2011). A giant Lt. Cmdr. Data (Brent Spiner) stands between the Ferry Building and the Ferry Station Post Office Building, taller than the former's clocktower. The large text "BIG DATA" is overlaid on the left side of the image.

(it's either something like this, or OP elided the word "audience")
