I've already theorized that Jim's non-Binary identification comes from him knowing he can't completely abandon the Jimquistion name for cynical business reasons but another option is that he does it entirely so that he can go 'Ha! Gotcha now, I'm not even trying to be a woman, I'm non-binary, you idiot!' whenever people mock him for his terrible drag performance on the internet.
The passing privilege of corpses is yet another cause of Jim's CPTSD for which he requires six hours a day of therapy.
This has all the warmth and sincerity of when kids play house in pre-school.
While I don't quite doubt him, it also was obviously not a big deal as he said he had the tools to handle it. It's a fucking nothingburger tweet you'd get from teenage girls looking for attention.
Why the fuck do people complain about twitch raids? Like "oh no I'm going to get ad revenue from all these randos clicking on my channel! Someone call the internet police!"
To be fair, you don't make money off these kinds of raids. You make money off of subs, donations and playing ads. I doubt raiders are sticking around and becoming paypiggies. Unless he has Text to speech donation messages on, in which case you're correct.
It's a sure fire way to get yourself publicity since Anita started claiming she was sent death threats or harassed online. "Hasbeen youtuber/game reviewer who became trans harassed by alt-right for life choices; news at 11" is common headline news for places like Kotaku.
It's real. There weren't that many people and it was only going on for about a minute. "Massive" hate raid indeed. It was also near the beginning of the stream so it wasn't even interrupting anything aside from the simping and dick sucking.
I'll give Jim some credit because he at least realised that there are mod tools that easily shutdown these kind of raids, if anyone remembers back when hate raids were big news it just outed people for not having a clue how Twitch works because the same tools existed then and they're incredibly easy to use. So well done Jim for being (or having mods) able to understand the simpliest of mod tools.
@Oliver Onions is our How-Long-Will-It-Take-For-Jim-To-Go-Under-800000-ologist. I think his original prediction was August, but Jim has reduced the rate of loss from 7-8k to around 3-4k a month, so I don't really know what the predicted time is now.
Looking forward to the "it's just because I'm trans" excuse when I don't think that has anything to do with it for the majority of people. I think he is just so thoroughly unpleasant to look at, people are just turned off. He reminds me of a time I saw a random person in clown makeup walk in the store I worked at. I'm not scared of clowns, but my brain just tells me I should naturally avoid it because it just looks wrong.
As it currently stands he is on track to have lost 100k subs, total, by May/June, but to actually hit 800k? That's a bit trickier.
