Can anyone explain to me how and why this dude is so popular? I just don't get it.
Same for other streamers and "political" ecelebs like Fuentes. I feel as if I'm losing brain cells just looking at them
tbh hes not that popular outiside Gamer circles n shit like that, you'd alr have to be online enough to know what shit like moistkritikal and idubbz are and probably play comp matches of somesort of tryhard FPS like seige or valorant. While this is a big demo overall I wouldn't even call them a plurality among young people. Outside that crowd know one really knows who tf bro is and I bet if you showed them pics of bro and his room they would mock the fuck out of him.
>t.zoomer who went to HS in the late 2010s >>678561tbh I might start calling this the "Elon Effect" where chronically online first world rightists(like groypers and gamergater types as opposed to some boomer bush cultist in the 1st world and ruralite religious traditionalists in the global south) form strong parasocial bonds with internet personalities. Elon puts out an image of him being a lone genius whose just too based and too smart for the normies who resent him for being such a special boy. This was already how many online rightoids view themselves in relation to there peer group and why they glaze Elon so much. Asmongold is a stinky NEET who bitches and moans abt video game booba and other culture war nonsense while thinking himself better than all the normies despite being unwashed, unaccomplished and undesirable. Hes literally /there guy/ whether they know or not.
