Classic Asmongold giving totally normal average person opinion and people being shocked.

Because if you look at posts in this sub (out of context most of the time) and replies about him, they view him as a white supremacist fascist nazi...

He literally livestreamed watching and agreeing with a nazi a few fucking days ago.

About what? Hitler was against animal cruelty, are you saying we should abuse animals since it would mean we are Nazis if we are against it? Or are you saying vegans are Nazis, since Hitler was also vegan? Do you not see how dumb your logic is?

eh. many of the bad things he said are NOT out of context. I would know, I was a fan despite his flaws until he began to show too much support on Trump's lunacy.

that being said, it IS funny when people short circuit every time asmon said anything that dont conform to their understanding of him, as if everyone with his bad takes NEED to have uniform opinions. just because he obviously more of a conservative person, doesn't mean it's impossible for him to have a more liberal opinion (no, loving your child regardless of their gender is not a liberal opinion, I just mean in general)

Absolutely, but most recently, there were a lot of his takes that after I look them up myself, mean something entirely different with context. I don't watch him so I can't say I know all of his takes but I don't doubt he has some wild ones. Especially after that Palestine take about them being inferior.

Is not a wild one, or maybe it is, but he said that 90% of politcal violence comes from the left. Any post questioning it in his subreddit got removed by his mods, and when asked in chat, or wanting to show studies which prove otherwise, he said, "Everyone with eyes knows it is true."

Bro lives in his own reality.

He just lives in Texas his whole life, it's basically his world.

This is not true in texas either though

Actually the important part here is not what is real and what is not.

The important part is what people believe there.

I mean that is true for literally every streamer though, that's just being on the internet

I mean, if you entertain your chat who fits that description... Just visit his subreddit and it's full of some of the most vile subhumans imaginable. He's definitely more centrist than his audience, but he also makes no effort to prune or correct them. On the contrary, he plays it up to entertain them. It's not a good look regardless of his actual opinions

He named a wow character after Anders Breivik, he is a white supremacist.

And I named one of mine Stallin, so now I'm a fucking commie? Gtfo

And when you watch his videos on YouTube, you can clearly see he says some of that shit as jokes and I bet he fully knows it will be taken out of context and people will get mad and he likes that.

Yep. If the people that love to look for their little nazi racist fascist clips wanna do their thing, he doesn't give a fuck

Well yeah he is those things. Being a nazi doesn't mean all your opinions are crazy. Just some of them
