Chud the Builder. Maybe you've heard of him. Here we have a man who has built his entire platform off of performing some of the most antisocial behavior possible. A man who is truly antithetical to the type of masculinity we promote here at HOUDINI Magazine.

At HOUDINI Magazine, we promote a masculinity that's about uplifting people, seeing people better than they are, being a pillar of your community, pro-social behavior. It's counterintuitive to this sort of grifter, right-wing, hustle-bro mentality that has been propagandized to the point where we now have men like this who build their entire platform off of hate.

The right will protect this man, and they will fund this man, and they will say they protect him because they value free speech. As we know, if you follow me, the right wing's hypocrisy about free speech has already been exposed. Otherwise I would not be facing fifteen years in a Florida penitentiary for criticizing a right-wing influencer.

So how did Chud the Builder build his platform, you might be wondering. What does he do? Does he do on-the-street interviews? Is he one of those speed runners? Does he play video games? That's what streaming was originally all about, so maybe that's what he does. No. He builds his platform off of agitation and antisocial behavior.

Tennessee is an open carry state, so he open carries. That's his right in this country. Then he goes around, finds Black people, and calls them slurs for the camera. Imagine you are with your family, your child, your wife, your children, going about your day. You stop into a corner store or gas station to get a drink for you and your kids, get a bug juice for the kiddo. And here we have this streamer who's being paid handsomely by his right-wing sycophants, and he walks up to you and calls you the N-word straight to your face, right in front of your children. But if you say anything back, then you're against his free speech.

Is this the type of behavior we want in our society? Do we, the people, really want a man who believes this is the example to set for his own children? Make no mistake: you may have bought a small pittance for your children, but you haven't secured their future.

Your child is what? And I'm addressing you directly, Mr. Chud. Your child is what? Four? Six? Based on her pictures? Do you think she's going to grow up and look to her father as someone of honor, of courage, of heart, as someone who made the world a better place? Sure, you might be able to pay off your lifted truck with the money you've made off your virtual lynching, off the hate and animosity you've pushed. But you've fundamentally failed as a man, and you've failed as a father. It's really that simple.

Those clips of you doing this antisocial behavior will be replayed over and over and over again for her as she becomes a teenager, as she becomes an adult, as she becomes aware of who you are. She becomes aware that her father is a bigot of the largest degree, if you're still alive by then. I'm no psychiatrist, but the type of behavior you're engaging in is fundamentally antisocial. It's the behavior of a man who wants to die. He doesn't have a good reason for wanting to die. There's something going on inside him that's causing this behavior.

Of course, the antisocial right-wing faction will celebrate you and give you money and make you a martyr. But it's your daughter who has to grow up in that shadow—the shadow of your screams, the shadow of your bigotry. If there’s one thing I do not fuck with it’s a man that don’t take care of his kids.

You claim that's what the fundraiser is for, to protect your family. But if it was really about protecting your family, you wouldn't have engaged in such a vile act of hatred to begin with. You wouldn't have prompted a public response.

I don't have any children. You can't come after my kids for me telling you this. That's intentional. I don't have very much in the way of intimate relationships. That's intentional, because I understand that when you're playing a game of politics, you piss certain people off. That's what happens. But never mind that. Never mind me. Haven't you seen Heat Mr. Chud? If you wanted to be part of the neo-nazi vanguard, you should have considered this quote:

"Do not have any attachments, do not have anything in your life you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you spot the heat around the corner." Mr. Chud, you've been going around every corner looking for the heat!

Mr. Chud, you're twenty-eight years old living in a collapsing economy. You've made $60,000. You've made some good money off Kick streams, we've seen that nice truck, we know those payments aren't cheap!. You think it'll last? We're both about the same age. We've both come up seeing what happens to YouTubers and streamers as they get older, as their brand collapses, as their audience goes away. Some of those YouTubers make content that is much more palatable than what you do. They make content about video games or films, things that most people have some tangible enjoyment of. Still they struggle with longevity, with making money from their content. Your "content"? Let's keep it a buck: the overwhelming majority of the human species does not enjoy hatred. It doesn't enjoy reaction-bait content where you go up to an unsuspecting person and call them something bigoted. I can't imagine that type of content will be very profitable for long.

What's your retirement plan? Do you have one? Probably not, because you're not thinking ahead. You're a grown-ass man partna. You're twenty-eight years old. You've got a fucking daughter to worry about. And you've disgraced her by your actions. She will grow up in the shadow of your actions. Her friends, whether that's in middle school, college or at work will ask her about your actions. Her entire life is now predicated on your bigotry, on your disgrace. No amount of money from other racists and other bigots can make up for the fact that you are a disgrace as a man. You're a disgrace as a father. Every second that your daughter is alive and self-aware enough to know these things will be a second that she's living in shame and disgrace because of you, because of your actions.

So you claim on your GoSendGo, on your fundraiser, that it's about protecting your kids. You need the money to protect your family from radical "Black Lives Matter protestors". But if it was really about protecting your family, you wouldn't be out here trying to die every day on stream. Yes, you've made your $60,000, feel good about it if you want. You might even make $100,000. All the bigots in the world might rally around you. But no amount of money can make up for reality that every moment she is alive, your daughter will live in shame, knowing her father is a weak man, a bigot, , a failure, a disgrace, a pathetic man without honor. You can't buy honor. Your "fans" can't bestow this on you. It is something you simply are, or aren't and based on the fact that you've spent you one God given life to spread hatred instead of uplifting, it's clear you'll never have it.

You want my armchair diagnosis? Again, I'm no therapist, but I grew up on 4chan. I've been around the block, and I understand why certain people act certain ways. Here you have a man who's looking to die. What he really wants is for him to say the wrong thing to the wrong person, and then he dies. He gets got. I don't think it's a martyrdom complex. I don't think he's trying to die for his beliefs, because he doesn't really have any beliefs. What he has is a facsimile of masculinity, a mask he's wearing and operating within.

We've seen the photos, Mr. Chud. We know you used to cross-dress. We know what you used to look like and how you used to present yourself online. We know that what you're dealing with is an internalized self-hatred that you've been projecting onto other minority groups. Unable to accept yourself, you find yourself accepted by those who can only accept your hatred. It's truly a pathetic existence to live.

It is too late now. You can never be accepted by the people who would have accepted you to begin with. You've already damned yourself and your family line, your lineage, your name, your children, and all those who come after you, to the shame and dishonor you've caused them. The only way to undo that would be to commit seppuku, which, let's be real, you're LARPing. Your masculinity is a LARP. Your masculinity is an illusion. You think you can fool everyone with it, but you can't fool me. They call me Houdini for a reason. I can see past your illusion.

Because you can't cope with who you really are, you've disgraced your family name, you've disgraced your daughter's lineage, and you've simply failed as a man. Maybe that's because you never really were a man to begin with. But I don't want to get too deep into the psychoanalysis.

Under the framework you live in, with the lifted trucks and the gender-affirming mustache, and the phallic obsession with open carry, you are a failure. You've failed to live up to the one thing, the one pledge, the one promise that every man has to make: to put family over everything. Once you have kids, the kids become the priority. So it doesn't matter what you really are, it doesn't matter the lie you're living, because even if this is the supposed truth, your disgrace remains. No amount of $25, $50 donations from bigots racist comments like "NUCK FIGGERS" can undo that.

That's what I have to say to you, Mr. Chud. If you are the type of man you claim to be, the only way to absolve your dishonor is to make the Robin Williams exit. Seppuku. Hara-kiri. Maybe that will restore the honor of the family you've so clearly disgraced. Maybe then the discussion will be about the tragedy of your exit, instead of your daughter growing up in the shadow of your dishonor. You are a failure as a man and as a father.
