rule

im not like the most active fan of his, but I do watch him once in a while. I enjoy how the environment around him just changes and he won’t acknowledge it AT ALL

like he dropped all his loot 😭😭

for context this was a few weeks ago

or the time he randomly turned bald for a day

    I’ve called it with a few YouTubers, more people IRL, but this guy has always screamed red flags to me.

      He literally did nothing this is a joke post basically. It’s about an old thing where he like quit a podcast or something.

      Unless you’re confusing him with asmondgold which people do frequently cuz they basically look like the same dude.

    Like IDGAF about him, but with this kind of post, you’d expect some background information.

      im honestly really surprised that lemmings don’t know who he is. He’s been uploading videos for 19 years and gets millions of views on nearly every video.

        I didn’t watch random YouTube videos. I only watch new videos from channels I already enjoy and I only find new channels when I search up a topic and am impressed by a particular result.

        What are MoistCritikal videos about, anyways?

          Mostly video games I think but he does weigh in on drama slop sometimes.

          He seems like a nice enough guy.

          I don’t seek him out but he pops up on my feed a few times a year.

          I had a laugh at the post because his channel name is penguin0 which is the the one that is pictured saying “The moistcritical situation is insane”

          Just a video taking the piss out of the drama slop community I imagine

            Glancing at his channel, it is all reaction/commentary videos, which explains why I don’t know who he is. I don’t care about an Internet rando’s takes about situations, unless they have some specialized credentials or have done an exceptional amount of research.

    Isn’t asmongold like the posterboy for a trump loving anti trans full gamergate right-wing streamer? Just asking as I’ve never actually seen his shit just what I’ve heard.

      I feel bad for moistcritical because I thought he was asmongold too for a bit. I don’t follow either closely, but asmon is trash and moist is chill afaik.

          Ah that makes sense. I’ve just refused to use YouTube for like the last 10 years. So I only see screen caps and the like from lemmy etc. So what’s the other dudes name? (and I assume he isn’t as right wing nazi as asmongold?)

            Guy on the left is Charlie/MoistCritical/Penguinz0. I don’t know of he’s ever stated his political affiliation, but I don’t think he holds many right wing opinions at all. He owns guns, so that’s one I guess.

                Very very left

                I don’t think this is true. I’m far from an expert, but I’ve never gotten the vibe that he’s got any political education whatsoever.

                He’s usually representative of the “normie take” on a given situation. I don’t think he even knows what words like “socialism” mean (but maybe that’s harsh).

                  His takes are basically your average lemmy user. Palestine, ICE, etc, he’s even called out his YouTube doppelganger as a MAGA plant.

              Yeah guns are a red flag. Considering as an Australian I’ve seen actual fireable guns like 3 times in the last 20 years.

                Lot of us harder lefties have em’ over here too.

                If you live in a country full of right wing gun nuts gun control without deeply carful planning just means the people with legal access to guns are cops, which in this country ARE THE WORST OF THE RIGHT WING GUN NUTS.

                I do not see our current government as capable of fixing this issue, and am terrified my dipshit countrymen will end up starting a civil war. That being said, this recent blue wave has given me more hope of peaceful resolution.

          I used to have the same issue with that pair of gum-bumpers Shapiro and Kirk, plus the two Jimmys that do late night US TV.

      he’s not a Republican, he literally did a whole series about how bullshit the trump phones claims were and ordered one for review (fully expecting to be scammed for content)

      He’s also very critical of the healthcare system in the US for what it’s worth

        It’s nice of him to do that. Thought this was about some super secret gossip about him and his nickname led me to a specific direction, as it can be read…
