Omg you're that guy who came in to argue with me about liberalism in the other thread, it makes complete sense that you're a "fuck Hasan" guy. Are you an Asmongold fan?
what the fuck? where did i do this? and no, i'm not an Asmongold fan. i think ALL streamers are scumbags and part of the problem. Hasan is the most least part of the problem, however i still dislike him
huh? I wasn't directing that comment at you at all, what made you think it was directed at you?
Is this... Not a DM? It's appearing on my end as DMs? Where are you seeing it?
Oh wow, that's really strange! No, I wrote it as a top-level comment on this post. Here's a link to the comment on my instance
That's bonkers lol. I just opened my DMs and was like "what are you even talking about?!"
Obviously some code gremlins inside the Fediverse somewhere decided that you needed to be informed about two random people arguing about politics and low stakes streamer drama on the internet. The people must know!
Man what a huge disappointment given I find nothing of value in streamer drama. I'm sure it's entertaining if you're into that sort of thing but if I wanted unlikeable people yelling at eachother while crowds of people who already knew who they wanted to win and didn't really care what the actual outcome was watched, I'd go to a backyard pro wrestling promotion lol
To emphasize: not trying to yuck anyone's yum, but I have so many people in life come to me like I for sure definitely have a favorite streamer when how I try to engage with streamers and their opinions on things is I don't lol
Yeah, I don't care for streamer drama either. I like watching Hasan's stream because he generally has pretty good analysis on things most of the time, and as a European it helps me stay informed about US politics from a leftist perspective, but he's not for everyone, for sure.
I think us leftists in America need to put together a wrestling promotion further left than AEW. WWE is MAGA, AEW is DNC. We need a wrestling promotion equivalent of punk rock/actual leftists out in the streets doing things to communicate with the world what AEW and WWE miss about what goes on around here. I think it should be Luchadora inspired since the queer/femme scene in northern Mexico is really popping off right now
I don't know much about wrestling, but that sounds awesome and you should do it!!
So why are you guys arguing in my DMs?
This is a comment on a lemmy.world post with a different author.
What client are you using?
Gremlins in the server again?
Default lemmy UI
Both sides.🤡
Dunno about him, but I am. What about it?
Thanks for responding and for your honesty. I'm really curious about a few things, I hope you don't mind if I ask you some questions and maybe we can chat a little? I'm not interested in judging you or shaming you or anything like that, but I would love to understand you.
He's just funny. Also I don't like modern trends in modern gaming and shows, and he's not afraid to call them out and ridicule them.
I was always pro free market and anti communism. It didn't change at all. I'd say I was against any immigration barriers before watching him, but I shifted towards moderate barriers (working people only, instant deportation for crime) but that wasn't just only his influence.
I tried watching Hasan before, but for someone who grew up in powerty in broken post communist economy, his pro communist stance is just pure cringe to me.
Additionaly Asmon sometimes tells about his life hacks and ways to cheat the system which is all too familiar considering my childhood life. I sort of identify with him, maybe?
Thanks very much for the honest reply :)
That's fair, how long have you been watching him for?
Which trends bother you the most?
I totally get that. I'm guessing you're from an ex-USSR republic in Eastern Europe, or somewhere around there, right? My partner is Estonian, so I have a lot of understanding and sympathy with this.
I'm glad you have someone you enjoy and identify with.
I'm also wondering a little about how you feel about things like the cost of living crisis - do you feel impacted by that? Not sure where you're from or what you do for work etc. but have you experienced issues with public services getting worse, prices going up faster than wages, struggling to buy a home, things like that?
Few years now. More or less since he shifted from WoW to reactions and political commentary
The most? The twisted idea of political correctness. Every game made by well established corporation is bland. It has perfect representation of all races, all skin colours, all LGBT minorities, and every one of them feels the same. Bland, uninspired, boring and usually expensive. I want games like Witcher 3, with unique slavic style and mythos, Expedition 33 with unique french style, Black Myth Wukong with increadible chineese folklore and art - these games are actual, real diversity.
Yeah, I'm from Poland
I make above average, so I'm not that hard impacted, but the COVID inflation hit Poland much harder than US or rest of EU. Prices of everything increased 2x in the last 6 years. Wages followed, but not equally. Small business ran by my cousin got hit particularly hard on both sides. His costs of living increased considerably, while due to specifics of the business model, inflation shrunk their real cash flow.
State itself runs fine, housing is as expensive in terms of avg income as always while quality of services, like healthcare is the same as always.
Population growth is horribly nagative - people often say its due to financial reasons, but I don't believe this to be main factor - the poorest people have plenty of subsidies in forms of government mortgage subsidies, children subsidies ect. while rest is definitely making enough to support children if they wanted them. Poland is overall quite wealthy these days
Thanks again for your continued honest and good natured responses, I really appreciate it.
Does political correctness in video games bother you more than predatory monetisation practices (lootboxes, microtransactions, increasing prices relative to content, and so on)? How about live service games becoming unavailable after servers are shut down, i.e the issue addressed by the "Stop Killing Games" movement?
Those are some great games! I've not gotten around to Black Myth Wukong yet, but I preordered both of the other two. Been a Witcher fan for a while, even listened to the audiobooks and enjoyed them too.
Have you played Baldur's Gate 3? If so, what did you think of it?
I totally agree with you on that - though I would identify the issue as being caused by video games more and more becoming products intended to maximize profit, rather than works of art. I believe the best games are those which are daring, and try something new, rather than aimed at mass-market appeal. Making a game appealing to as many people as leads to bland, derivative design driven by focus groups and design committees, rather than artists with a compelling vision.
Nice! I have never visited Poland, but I'd love to go, I definitely will some day. I'm from Scotland.
Can I ask what you do for work? Of course, don't dox yourself or anything, just a broad idea.
I'm really sorry to hear about your cousin. I hope things improve for him soon.
What do you think is causing it?
Is this based on your personal interactions with them? I wonder to what extent you socialise with poorer people and hear from them directly about their experiences of this?
