We don't need to do anything. Instead of hoping for an 800K coping video, I suggest we look forward to a Britians Fuck Healthcare Not Covering His HRT Coping Video.

Now that he's on the most transphobic place on earth, TERF Island, I've been wondering how long it'll be until he jumps the shark and becomes a breadtuber.

Jim's outfit looks like a custom character from WWE 2K13 whose textures refuse to load properly.

I thought it was a crappy Electro Costume

I'm sure that will be accelerated by Youtubes auto-unsubscribe and purging of dead accounts over time. Never thought I'd be cheering for the tubes to fuck with an account, but here we are.

It'll be interesting to see where everyone ends up after accounts that haven't been accessed in over five years suddenly disappear. And how many will freak out over it.

I would like to add a caveat there that if you want to build a gaming computer it's still pretty awful. Parts prices, particularly GPUs, are still through the roof due to miners and and superconductor shortage. Funny, though: I don't remember Sterling railing against Nvidia or AMD for being capitalists and not wanting to take losses on their products..

He blames crypto for the shortages.

A massive crowd of 14 people. Jim has really hit the big time now boys. How can a human being fail so fucking hard so fucking fast? Consider what has happened to Jim, fired by multiple gaming news outlets, mocked by Randy Bitchford of all people, brainwashed by twitter into wearing women's clothing, openly admits he is cucked by his partner, Youtube channel dying and he was run out of the USA probably due to some degenerate criminality or tax evasion that we are not yet aware of.
Let all that info sink in and then compare Jim to someone like YongYea who exists in the same type of gaming news commentary genre and Yong seems to be not only growing his channel he is now the voice of Father Motherfucking Pucci and Yong seems to managed all this by just being a normal dude (well almost normal Yong has an unhealthy obsession with Metal Gear.)
But no Jim will continue to blame other people for his life falling apart, these shadowy transphobes that do not exist and never the person who is actually to blame for it, himself.

Jim is allergic to taking responsibility for anything.

AAAs were making pretty good stuff until the 7th gen. Indies will often get their dicks sucked for being "spiritual succesors" to games that were considered AAA when they came out in the 90s and early 00s

I just think it's a massive exaggeration to blanket state video games, as a whole, have gone to shit.

even if they were all shit , a 40 yr old man screaming about how microtransactions ruined his life is still pathetic. "videogame industry bad" is like babies first entry into pseudointellectualism.

This is the right opinion. If you hate video games so much read a fucking book. Go to the gym. Learn a new skill. Kill a prostitute. Do literally anything else.

Video games are so unbelievably trivial in the grand scheme of a life well lived; getting upset about them to the point it diminishes your quality of life like it's done to Jim is gay as fuck.

It's like people acting like they've got PTSD over how Disney treated Star Wars.

Do I like what they've done with the place? No. I think the new stuff is mostly just trash. But a media franchise, no matter how influential it's been, has no bearing on my life decisions. Entertainment is nice, but if it's causing you anguish you're doing it wrong. Drop it and go do something else.

I don't think floppy-dicked tranny sex counts as "fuck". So his neopronouns have to be fat/fatself.

Imagine if some white people started wearing Spirit Halloween afro wigs and daishikis and called themselves Racially Neutral. Now imagine these people start getting a following, take to twitter, grow in numbers, and now they claim to be part of the black community and that they speak for black people and, actually, they're even more oppressed.

This is why the nonbinary thing makes me laugh. You get to watch the trans community get watered down and destroyed by the same cudgel they wielded against womens' sports: Diversity & Inclusion.:story:

While there are people that fucking deranged that they put that much time and thought into it, I think the bigger issue is why they feel it's so important. It's an easy thing to miss amongst the shuffle, and all things equal, it's not like the majority of them take the time to clarify in any real capacity, and while part of it is completely self-explanatory - a crowd that doesn't really give a shit about something muscling in, evicting its existing fanbase, then using that something as nothing more than a mouthpiece for their stupid fucking opinions - there's a second reason a lot of them become intractable.

Video Games and other entertainment media are escapism. For a lot of people with bad lives - especially younger peope - they're more than a coping mechanism, they're one of the few things that they can take shelter in and forget about their problems for a little while with. They let them put themselves in a different headspace, let them cool down, or even recover a bit, even if something gets frustrating or heated, because at least they're not focusing on how much their life sucks at the moment.

Don't pretend you don't know people like that, especially if you're in this fucking thread.

Believe it or not, that escapism being destroyed is exactly what the assclowns shitting up modern entertainment are trying to do. The whole purpose of the usual suspects moving into otherwise harmless entertainment vectors is specifically to cut off retreat vectors from politics and outrage, in an attempt to spur social conflict. Look up Gramsci some time. Say what you will about the spergs upset about how Disney's handling of the Star Wars IP to they point they're threatening to slit their wrists - you'll most likely be right - but do not forget that this shit is intentional across the board.

It dovetails perfectly into Sterling himself, because he's part of the gang pushing this shit. He's one of the fuckers arguing that everything is always political, at all times, and you have no right to say "fuck this, I'm out." He's one of the bastards unironically arguing that games he personally disapproves of have no right to exist. He won't leave vidya no matter how much he legitimately hates it - none of his asshat associates will, despite treating gaming with nothing but giggling fucking contempt. And we all know why they fucking won't.

Those are very good points, and I don't disagree with anything in your post.

But note that I mentioned "anguish". Not wanting your hobby ground to a paste for mass consumption by entryist assholes isn't an irrational reaction, it's actually a very rational one. Some anger is definitely justified in the face of the cynicism of people like Jimbo there. But at the same time there are people who let what should be escapism consume their lives, and when it gets messed with they lash out like a bunch of idiots.

I have the same issue with furries as I do with these irrational "fans": it's fine to enjoy escapism, but when you live in that fantasy world so long you start losing track of what's really important in your life, it's time to stop. Go pick up a physical hobby. Me, I started doing woodworking. It's like knitting for men approaching middle age.

IMHO the problem is way overstated. People exaggerate problems in their YouTube reviews because it is amusing.
