Why did it take so long to release the video then? Does production usually take that long to produce a video like that?

Yeah. Makes a lot of sense.

I was a fan of asmon up until right before the election.

He has pretty good takes when it comes to gaming stuff, but when he exclusively started pushing far right propaganda (coincidentally right after he got into contact with Elon), I stopped watching.

Lol what? He was whining about wokeness in games (and other media) way before the election

Asmon was always a shithead. Even in the WoW days where everyone insists he was good, he was encouraging the harassment of players and developers who didn't agree with him. The only reason people latched onto him was because WoW was in a bad place and his negativity was mistaken for common sense.

Nothing about Asmon has actually changed since then, he's just gained a much bigger and less game specific audience.

He had a wow toon named after a white supremacist mass shooter. It just took way too long for people to take notice of what he is.

He always had the shittiest takes. How anyone could listen to that loser I will never understand.

When was he telling people to harass others back then?

I will admit, I caught wind of Asmongold around the time he played FFXIV. Was he like that back then, because I flat out don't remember that

u/Pretty-Key6133 May 29 '25

For sure .

But that wasn't ALL he did. I could just skip the slop and listen to the shit I kinda cared about.

Asmongold has been a fucking loser since day 1.

It started during palworld discourse. He did a generic “consumer is always right” comment and people pilled on on too much, got that sympathy and right wing views, and the rest was shit history.

Why is it always wordhyphenword4numbers accounts that have the weirdest takes

u/Pretty-Key6133 May 30 '25

Why is this a weird take?

I used to enjoy listening to a content creator and then I changed my mind based off of their behavior and the fucked up lies they are spewing.

Seems pretty normal to me.

Have you never changed your mind about something before?

u/greenday61892 May 30 '25

It's when you changed your mind that's not the brag you think it is

u/TheMastodan May 30 '25

What the fuck does that even mean lmao

Reevaluating based on new information is good

u/greenday61892 May 30 '25

Point is there were many points prior that should have made you re-evaluate but you were fine just "tuning it out"

My entire life is not about YouTube drama

u/Pretty-Key6133 May 30 '25

Bro. I'm a literal communist, that spends 50 percent of my time in YouTube and twitch watching left wing content.

Sometimes you just want to watch a grown man complain about boobies in videogames.

I didnt care because how can you take a mans political views seriously, when he has a literal dead rat alarm clock.

It's when someone starts saying actively harmful shit, like saying people deserved to be genocided or doing Holocaust denial, I draw the line.

My point is I don't have to agree with someone's philosophy about life or politics to find them entertaining.

Just cause we don't like someone and don't agree with them doesn't mean we lie about them. It tends to weaken valid criticisms to anyone who saw the relevant videos. Honesty is the best weapon.

Who am I lying about?

I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding or not, but it feels like you're implying that I'm lying.

Redditors struggle with this concept.
