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.
Asmondgold is so far past being relevant. He was intolerable when he was simply making World of Warcraft videos.
I am from Germany and the English skills of the most citizens are not the yellow of the egg.
I only understand train station.
It amazes me people listen to a guy who chooses to live in a filthy roach infested house.
Didn’t he have a roach electric itself by chewing through a cord and he just fucking left it there for months?
The rat alarm clock is pretty clever though. Once the roaches finish eating it, it’s a snooze button!
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!
Maybe if i was slightly more nihilistic and much more of an asshole i could pretend, alas it is not so.
How is he not banned yet? I would have banned him just for not using deodorant.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
They have to be exterminated because they REFUSE to join or advance society and will ALWAYS be trying to create a power structure that kills and destroys.They are not redeemable and the speed run to Nazism and twice voting a fascist demagogue is proof of it.
‘they have to be exterminated because they refuse to join or advance society’ reads exactly like what Nazi would say when pressed on why killing whomever is ok so thank you for taking my side.
Hey how bout you fuck right off with your shitty-ass “fighting Nazis amies you the REAL Nazi!” bullshit. Fuck you for pissing all over the graves of those who cheerfully murdered Nazis the first time.
This kind of false equivalence is kind of annoying.
Doctors and serial killers both cut people, but they’re clearly not the same, are they?
Where is it a false equivalence? Calling for the extermination of people sounds not like a false equivalence. I am not even arguing against violence or even killing Nazis if you have save a life. We are talking about executing someone you have in your power.
Your comparison sucks. If the Doctor kills people without need he would soon be in that second category.
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.
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.
im saying this with peace and love, you need to find better people to watch
Eh, I tried to be open-minded. Asmongold was funny and surprisingly articulate back when he just dunked on video game developers, but as time went on and Trump came into office, it really started falling apart. Rogan used to have doctors, scientists and educators on his show, and had enough humility to at least admit he was stupid and respected what they taught him. But just like Asmongold, Trump, money and the pandemic absolutely broke his brain.
The problem with Rogan was that, even like 7 years ago, I was trying to tell dudes to stop listening to Joe Rogan because he platforms people with very dangerous, unscientific ideas. The response was always, “he has doctors and researchers on, too!” as if Rogan wasn’t doing that on purpose as cover for him to broadcast his deeply reactive political views.
He also profits from stealing other people’s content. https://youtu.be/Irk8h0ax5aY
Maybe this experience is telling you to question your beliefs on yourself, your family, other people, your country, the world…
i’m sorry, largest?
(it’s either something like this, or OP elided the word “audience”)
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.
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 think asmon is entertaining and his takes are mostly pretty fair. I’ve watched him for a very long time. Yes I will be down voted, that I know.
It’s always the people you most suspect of being ignorant racists…
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” 🤦
If he doesn’t like today’s games, then he can just ask ChatGPT to make it the old way. Or Grok for that MechaHitler edge.
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.
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.
They only show their true colors when the feel that it is safe for them to do so. So this says more about Twitch and our current society than about this asshole.
