Youtubers teetering on the edge of cowdom - Who is next to fall from grace, and why?

This is more about his twitter account but his YouTube channel has declined as well. Andrew Blanka aka Law of Self Defense. His videos have so much filler peddling some non accredited "law class."

Beyond that though, and what I wish there were a general twitter antics page for, s that he is now spamming this dumb Blocked Per SOP "meme"with his face on it, blocking people bc they only have so many followers. Some are 30-40, others are a few hundred. People who disagree and have 1000k plus followers seem safe though.

the effects of what a lack of grass touching does to a man.
stop being terminally online, get back at doing semi-interesting videos and stop being a such a primadonna. Nobody cares who you're voting for, America isn't the entire world.

Ever heard of Bumbles McFumbles? If you haven't, you're not alone. He made a video titled "Which Punch Out!!!! Boxer is the Biggest Cheater?" which ended up getting 4.3 Million views. Other than that, most of his videos barely scrape by, with most of his videos getting around 10-30k views, so it seems like he's one of those WhoTubers who only gets lucky thanks to the algorithm.

He will, however, sperg about politics and shit in his videos, and although he won't outright say it, you can tell what audience he's trying to pander too.

The community tab is pretty normal, except for this giant wart. Because as we all know, it's the video game commentary channels who you should get your ideologies from.

He will go out of his way to shit talk his subscribers who dare question his stance on [current drama].

If most of his videos has as much political shit as the ones I saw (discarding the top three most viewed videos), I wouldn't be surprised if most of his subscribers just dipped after they see how preachy he may get at times. Doesn't help that most of his videos that are just him reviewing a game or listing one of those "top ten games that failed!" shit are generally boring as fuck. The SpongeBob movie one was such a drag to get through. His personality is basically what happens if you put sugar and sprinkles on white toast; it may be a bit more hyperactive, but it's still bland as fuck. May not even be worth it to look through all his videos to see bad takes, as he's not even interesting enough.

I remember the chicken little ace in action review he did where he had a short tangent about "Don't say gay" and how disney isn't doing enough to support LGBTQIBRAAAPPP rights, it caught me off guard for a second and now knowing he's like this, he's on my shit list now
 
HoodedCobraCommander788, a GI Joe toy reviewer, for some time seemed like he was going to be a full-blown lolcow, given how over the top and autistic his reviews could get.

There was also an instance where he recorded a video (now deleted) where he straight up left his family and drove over a hundred miles away to some gas stop in the middle of nowhere due to some kind of workplace drama or incident. He never clarified what the hell it was about to my knowledge, but I do know after that incident there was a pretty long gap between his reviews. And after he came back, the whole tone seemed to have changed.

As far as I can tell, he's gotten over whatever the problem was and appears to have patched up things with his family. His reviews now are more toned down and objective, focusing more on the aspects of the figure and contextualizing them in relation both to the 1980's GI Joe toy line and the toy industry as a whole during the time period. There's nothing really lolcowish about his videos now, though I suppose that depends entirely on how you view grown men liking or talking about old toys.

Alright Lorerunner has officially went off the deepend. He's stopped doing his actual analysis videos and is now full on streaming, and is now deleting comments calling him out for this cynical ploy to do less work because streaming vidya and getting paid by his cult of personality requires no work whereas actually talking about games requires him to take half an hour out of his day to actually do something

I watched this guy way back when he was still called Archengeia or something. Just found out he's a pedophile who got off on a technicality too. Surprised he doesn't have a lolcow thread yet but I suppose he's somewhat of a has-been. The Mass Effect 3 controversy was the only time he was relevant.
 
I noticed some previous posts about shammy on here. He just posted a new video and ended it with this

Let the downward spiral begin.

People in the comments keep praising him for working on his "girl voice". I honestly can say i didn't notice a difference.

He now has the tranny name of "joy" (very original) and has a new tranny fursona thing.

Also as many pointed out in the comments but missed the irony, and to the shock of no one here, his first sponsor after coming out was with a sex toy.

Wait, so THIS was his ""girl" voice"? I wouldn't mistake him for a woman, even if I would've grown up without seeing one.

i actually infiltrated his discord and asked him about it, he didnt ban for that and explained his side of the story (I might post that discord message he sent sometime) but he banned me for saying his stream structure seemed like a grift so goes to show what hit the nerve with him. so im actually leaning on false accusation but you never know

There's not a lot for me to bring up in support of the thread's purpose with whom I'm gonna bring up...but I feel like they may be warranted later. Not sure. For anyone who gave a shit about Nintendo of America's milquetoast "content" the company released outside of Nintendo Directs, the pair of hosts from the Nintendo Minute series, Kit and Krysta, now ex-NOA employees, have made a podcast. There's nothing ultimately really offensive or lolcowish in the podcast, but there's a few times before I dropped the podcast that really irk me as the pair trying way too hard to be relevant or thinking they're more interesting than they think they are:

- A mere few episodes in, suggesting nicknames of their own fanbases like they're a pair of vTubers. Kit made the argument that not everybody listening may care for him, or her. It's decided later the fanbases nicknames would be known as either 'Kitaradians' or Krystarians'.

- Despite knowing each other as long as they have, and primarily being known to be on camera having a constant back-and-forth, have as much conversational chemistry as a pair of highschoolers.

- Kit has this weirdly compulsory need to drive home this unfunny 'I hate Sonic cuz childhood trauma' joke but never goes on to explain why he hates Sonic (at least where I stopped), openly saying how little he's played of the series and will refuse to play any of the ones he hasn't due to this. Doesn't even want to entertain the thought the movies could be good, either.

- Felt that for whatever reason they had big enough of a fanbase to make a patreon out of it for extra/exclusive content, despite what they bring being no more interesting than simply reading about ex-developer stories on the industry.

It's weird typing this out because again, as much as I think they may be teetering eventually on the advent of lolcowdom, much like the Nintendo Minutes they took part in, they just aren't that fucking interesting. Yet, they're enough of a weird, 'Who the hell do you think you are, actually' pair of folks that I think warrants keeping track of.

How Wood Hawker doesn't have his own thread is beyond me. Then again maybe he really has to go completely off the rails for that to happen, but between his normal channel and the Nontendo Podcast it feels like this dude is going to ultra drama his way into the farms eventually.
