Whatifalthist, also known as Rudyard Lynch (because he was dumb enough to dox himself for attention), is AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
...Sorry, that was just my wish for him to actually put effort into his content, furiously trying to make itself known.
Does he deserve his following? Well, he says he does (he did that, when he wasn't asking for work in his video), but he LOST a debate with Vaush by being a worse arguer than I am, and by agreeing to do the debate in the first place.
He's in a weird position for autists such as myself; he says things that are interesting, and in an addicting manner that grabs attention, but even two minutes of watching his content will reveal that he doesn't care about his own stuff even a hundredth as much as his audience. Given his kinda-milquetoast stance usually, and his own claims that no one else cares about what he's covering, the audience is trapped into watching him.
He also shills for something called Pearl, sort of a Discord or Twitter alternative, because one of the people he sleeps with made it.
Gosh, he really thinks he's important, despite how little effort he puts into anything... or maybe he's putting as much effort into everything as possible, and he's just that incompetent.
