HE COMMENTED ON CIVIL RIGHTS:

When asked: Would you have said the same thing during the civil rights movement?

He replied: “What a ridiculous and self-serving oversimplification to imply the civil rights movement was successful because people stood in the street. It’s very simple, just get out of the road”

Here’s the link to the video clips.

He also said this:

“What gives you the unique moral authority to break the law because of what you believe in?.. It’s narcissistic and entitled. That’s insane. It’s like these people think the world revolved around their issue…”

The pic is just a pic I found of him.

Edit: Also, if people think he doesn’t matter, he’s literally more popular than Hasan, especially when it comes to gaming shit.

    Yeah he eats steak or mcdonals every meal and hasn’t ever tried like 95% of fruits. He grew up in poverty and his parents passed away, its sad to witness honestly and sad that its played off as a joke that he’s disgusting and lives in squalor. He’s extremely rich now and could afford maids or a new place easily but it’s part of his brand to be a removed gamer. I think some mental illness is at play here for the continued life in squalor and only eating 1 unhealthy thing when he’s a multi-millionaire.

      Did his mother die? Last time I watched him he had apparently bought his childhood home from his mother, since she couldn’t afford to keep it after his dad passed away. In general all of his life-stories are horribly depressing and sad, which is why he makes sure to tell them with a certain tone/persona.

          Sure, but that doesn’t mean that all of the stories are made up / fake. it just means he found a way to monetize them, which while not exactly kosher in my book, isn’t something I can blame people for if they grow up in poverty in Texas.
