I always like the grifter angle because he takes zero sponsorships and is entirely supported by viewers. If he wanted to make more money, he could just pivot to the right, there be gold in them decisions.

What do billionaires want? More right wing streamers, or more left wing streamers?

And unlike many of his contemporaries, he’s knowledgeable about the topics he discusses and acts as a teacher, explaining them. Explaining things is hard, dense, and requires time, no streamer with a brain, who was grifting would bother with that. Sincerely teaching people is not what a grifter would do, they’d just simplify and generalize. Like Asmon.

I’ve never heard asmongold explain anything, well, not correctly anyway. He explains things with the depth of my nine year old nephew. While taking breaks to say how right chat is about their currently held (often bigoted and unfounded) beliefs. Spoiler, he says immigration is the cause of all of your problems. 🫠

I feel like that does Asmongold a disservice in how fucked he is. We are talking about a goblin who used a rotting rat carcas as an alarm clock.
