many of the people on reddit have this weird thing where they cannot laugh at someone unless they are deemed a bad person. its very odd especially when people like cobes are involved.
you're spot on with this. it's not just Josh but all over reddit basically nothing can be funny unless the person is Nazi bad at least. It's really weird. makes me miss the days where everyone on the internet could just see someone do something weird or fuck up and laugh at it, instead it's like a phenomenon where people think they have to justify finding humor in something. which is stupid.
on the subject of cobra and reddit, I have a friend who follows him mainly through the reddit and I noticed his attitude towards him getting more hostile a year or two ago and I was like man, you spend too much time looking at him through the reddit filter. he's a harmless retard. he's never committed a rape, never beat up some chick for no reason, probably never even stole anything from a store. He's just a total idiot who can't function in society but found his niche arguing with strangers online about nothing, is generally a boring guy drinking and eating disgusting concoctions and watching YouTube compilations all day while he streams himself, who occasionally says some of the funniest nuggets of retard wisdom you've ever heard.
back when I started following him he was still a harmless idiot but the humor came from him bitching about his job at Wendy's, his total failures in his relationships, and the fact he was some tard who based his entire personality on the fact he smokes and likes the idea of being a goth rock star. He hasn't changed much.
I guess now people have slightly more of a reason to hate him because of Puff or whatever but really I don't blame Josh that much, he had no business being a pet owner in the first place he's not responsible enough for it. if a downy strangled a puppy that's horrible but you cant exactly blame the tard, josh is not that level but the point is some people are just not capable of taking care of another thing, let alone themselves.
