God I fucking hate the chat, the sub popup bullshit, and all the pseudo-relationship stuff that goes on there.

Sometimes I watch Grubby on YouTube, stuff that was originally posted to Twitch. And he's gotta patiently explain the most basic human things to his chat. Like, don't spam hate a woman if she won't date you or don't post gore in the chat. Grubby is a relatively mature and level headed person, I think he's doing a real service for people who's parents probably weren't around too much.

I dont really get the whole chat thing. I will watch live streams such that its something i play in the background while i do the dishes or something so that i dont have to go click on videos and itll just play. I've never seen the mass appeal of screaming into the void by chatting on there. Maybe on a smaller streamer with a dozen or less viewers you could actually talk to them but anyone with a few hundred or more and its just a mess.

I wonder about that too. I never watch Twitch or livestreams like that at all, but I do sometimes watch uploads of certain parts getting recapped. It's just this moving smear of complete unreadable noise it's so fast and full of emoji spam. But Hasan or whoever the person hosting will still pick out certain comments from it and talk to the person, and I'm like how?? I'm guessing the comments that get chosen must be higher tier subscribers and those show up separately to him or something. But for everyone else, what's the point? Like you said, just to scream into the void? Maybe on some insignificant chance someone else watching will glance at just the right split second to see what you said in chat?

I don’t know if this is true or just hearsay but I did see someone on 4chan saying he was “based because he called trans women cringe”. I don’t know that this is true for a fact but I’m just putting it out there. I watch him occasionally but he definitely comes off apolitical (derogatory) but that might just be him being aware of the fan base

You mean Grubby or Hasan said this? Honestly I wouldn't be that surprised or either said it.

[-] [email protected] 26 points 1 week ago

For the record, Hasan is very consistently pro-trans rights. I don't think there's ever been an issue.

Hasan is giving the chat baby's first transgender theory, which can veer into too simplistic of a view on the matter, but that's just cause he's not doing advanced transgender studies to his audience of dumb baby libs who need basic stuff like "due process is important even if you're a fucking white person" explained to them.

He is very pro-trans and the community has a very high percentage of trans people, unsurprisingly.

there was a long time ago (~2017). he learned, did better, got his shit together, and has been outspokenly pro-trans since.

Glad to hear he's made amends and had a clean record for 8 years

That was all grubby. I never investigated the claim so it might be false but if a 4chan user is saying they had a based take on trans people I took it at face value. I will be honest though that if that is true I still have a shameful likeness for his content. He’s arguably the biggest reason wc3 is still alive as it is and it’s been my favorite game since forever

Edit: also for all his faults Hasan definitely does not come off as apolitical lol

Grubby does the middle class liberal apolitical thing. I would not be surprised.
