this isn't the guy who was captured (apparently) and it happened a while ago but it's indicative of the idiotic culture:

one of his idiot associates went to a college he doesn't attend. he dropped into a lecture and his chat went off blaring the n-word over and over and everyone in the room looked at him*. he lied about being a student to the professor before leaving. then he went to a different lesson and his chat called in a bomb detonation countdown causing all the students to leave. he was arrested

* it's from his pov so i felt like i was in one of those nightmares where you're suddenly naked

Awwww yeah, at least one good GenX memory is when every metal band was required to do a song about crooked televangelists. That's one of the heavier ones & easily the best cover art on the subject.











Jim Bakkers ruination was probably the watershed of the era and he's rightfully forgotten, but his wife Tammy Faye divorced his rear end and broke from the evangelist mainstream over gay rights. She started marching in Pride parades, did HIV activism, and became a drag queen icon. That loving rules.

I was always more of a Tilton man myself though

i recently watched a video of the azov battalion descending on a roma camp with hammers and axes, and destroying all the buildings while harassing the few inhabitants who hadn't fled. there was something deeply upsetting about the way that they would ask for likes after making an especially racist joke about the women whose houses they were demolishing.

if you guys remember the whole ice poseidon streamer bus poo poo from a month ago youll be pleased to know alot of these guys who were banned from twitch/twitter for racism etc are now pulling in less than 100 viewers on youtube... or facing multiple year long prison sentences. hell one of them was scooped up today by bounty hunters while streaming, 6 felonies and probably won’t get bail

ice poseidon is still going, his fanbase hates him now tho (not cause hes racist unfortunately)

Could someone who understands the economics of being a streamer explain how the platform switch to YouTube fucks these guys over so bad?

I think it's because you lose out on Twitch Bits (basically a donation system) and Subscriptions (paid membership to the channel).

youtubes UI is rear end compared to twitch

they both have donation and sponsorship systems but there’s one huge difference, if you have amazon prime you have twitch prime automatically and twitch prime lets you subscribe to one twitch channel for free. that streamer gets the full $10 from that subscription a month, amazon don’t take a percentage out of that

now imagine all the kids who don‘t have credit cards but their parents have amazon prime they can use. the thousands of people who pop in to watch a stream once a month and subscribe with prime and just leave it subbed for years without noticing

as someone tangentially aware of them: youtube monetization is significantly lower-payout than twitch monetization as a ground level, any time someone jumps platforms they lose the vast majority of their audience and building it back up is a huge pain in the rear end, and also twitch makes giving streamers money to acknowledge your existence significantly easier.

why exactly youtube pays so much less is a subject of some discussion in the streamer community, my guess is that google is in a position to see exactly how low the clickthrough rate on ads are and is paying these people something approximately proportionate to their actual value-add to the platform

that being: zero

(twitch has a mechanism to get stream viewers to watch ads in exchange for Twitch FunBuxx. that may be relevant.)

the number of things that would lead to a very different world at this point is not small, but the most recent chapo touched on one I hadn't considered

when Obama sent some comm team dipshits to silicon valley to ask "hey uh do you guys have any idea how we should handle this fake news online thing," and were summarily given the brush-off? what happens if you send someone from the DOJ along and say "hey, so, we have this problem, and I have someone telling me you guys should be subject to anti-trust action. can you help us with this problem? or should I have Mr. Holder solve it."

there's no way in hell the Obama team would have considered actually using the power of the office to try to bring about political change, but goddamn

Trump’s suggestion that U.S. immigration policy has become a magnet for criminals and gang members is rejected by most Americans. Roughly 4 in 10 say the biggest reason most people enter illegally is to flee danger in their own countries, with another 4 in 10 saying they are drawn because of economic opportunities. Just 6 percent nationally say most people enter as part of the drug trade or gangs.

yeah he was debating neonazis for a while before he realized that actually debating the chuds was a complete waste of his time.

as a side effect of his actually being pretty good at it, he now has an entire community of alt-right nerdlingers desperate to get him chucked off every platform imaginable as revenge for making Richard Spencer/ the french rapist guy behind that Bloodsports Radio thing/ probably a half dozen other people look bad in Reasoned Debate.

he attempted to do some grandstanding about how this proved they weren't interested in Reasoned Debate. completely unsurprisingly this changed none of their minds.
