Is there a TL;DR of today's drama? 30+ pages is a lot to sift through.

Sargon started his stream before it was announced just so Jim couldn't stream snipe him, disabled comments under the guise that he was just doing it to stop the super chats even though I'm pretty sure the button you use to disable super chats is the same button you have to click to enable them in the first place so he should have known how to disable them without disabling chat, started streaming with no sound and kept streaming without sound for about 20 minutes because he disabled chat so no one could tell him he was muted. The he accused jim of "emotionally grooming" children to follow him, humble bragged, accused jim of grooming children again, accused jim of exploiting the children he groomed by lying about being sick, humble bragged some more, said jim was (direct quote) "monetizing evil on the Internet." He also chuckled way too much and was super smug.

Then Jim made fun of him and showed his analytics proving that about 2.5% of his audience was under 18, about the same as the number of 65+ in his audience. (IMO his response was pretty weak, but that was more because he could have gone so much further with it than because it was bad on its own)

TL;DR called sargon out and his comment magically got put in the spam folder after reaching 1000+ likes. Sargon then made a video responding to the comment that can be summed up as "*chuckle* *chuckle* you're just jealous that I'm more successful than you oh btw I'm a great person because I don't get jealous like you *chuckle* *chuckle*"

Sargon has lot over 1400 subs today and Jim has lost about 240.

There's a lot more, thats just the most interesting parts.

Sargon has got to be one of the cringe inducing people on YouTube when he gets involved in internet drama with other critics, his regular take on what’s going on in politics can be interesting but I don’t know why he bothers with this nonsense unless it’s just thin skin and a big ego or he’s somehow making money from it.

If Sargon can't handle some withering autist who enjoys watching toy unboxing videos and who hides behind cartoons on the internet, imagine how he'll fare against politicians who have years and years of experience in undermining their opponents, especially now that the party he joined is a joke that uses a fucking Starship Troopers quote as its slogan.

The only thing Sargon has done of note in British politics is this:

He’s never going to be taken seriously as a political figure, at best he’ll help UKIP makes some ‘How do you do, fellow kids?’ level memes.

This is glaringly obvious to anyone that has seen him interact with people he disagrees with.

 

[Secret Asshole]

Didn't he confirm that it was Drug Resistant TB on a stream??

Yes, he confirmed it. Drug Resistant TB is incredibly expensive to treat and sometimes requires frequent hospital stays. He's also mentioned that he shouldn't smoke because of it but he doesn't care.

So within one day, this thread went from post #4073 on page 204 to post #5019 on page 251. One day garnered 47 pages and ~18.85% of the thread's total posts. Checked back and all this shit started at the end of page 188, meaning that nearly a quarter of this entire 2 1/2 years old thread so far stems almost entirely from this incident.

Carl really set a lot of people off with this one. I don't think I've ever seen a thread grow this quickly, even during big drama.

 

[Kamatsubu]

I totally want to make a JoJo reference and ask if Sargon, MundaneMatt, and Kraut are now the Pillar men?

eh I guess I just did. But wow fam and people said that it was a conspiracy theory that Sargon had a grudge against Jim. "He's too busy doing big boy stuff."

He not only swung at one of the few people to be considered a "big dog", but did so in probably the absolute worst possible way he could have. I expect ol Carl to be the center of attention for quite a while.

Hmm if he could beat out the #ChangetheChannel shit that started earlier this year that caused the NC thread to jump from 70/80 pages to 200 pages than maybe this would be even bigger.

“Hurt durr, politicians is akshully super-dumb.” What an utterly pedestrian analysis. Just because they don’t follow the specifics of your pet issue doesn’t mean they’re stupid. And even if they are stupid, neither means they’re easy to influence. Their ears are being bent by people far smarter, richer, more influential, and more powerful than you Sargon.

One of my favorite quotes, often attributed to James Forrestal, first US Secretary of Defense:
“These men are not stupid or incompetent. They are crafty and brilliant. Consistency has never been a mark of stupidity. If they were merely stupid, they would occasionally make a mistake in our favor.”

Tfw Cark gets the free publicity he wanted.

It's amazing how many neg rating the op got. It's also amazing what a difference 2 years can make.

I honestly didn't know shit about either Jim or Sargon until about two years ago, but this has been a fun ride.

Wow... listening to this for 9 hours was one hell of a way to spend a Sunday.

He was a lolcow back then. Why do people think that he suddenly became one? He still makes informative news videos and he's still retarded.

Negative publicity is not good publicity, especially when its publicity circulated amongst a group of people that already know about you. Fortunately for Carl, he has a huge audience of people that don't pay attention to drama.

Unfortunately, that drama will make its way to the journalists.

 

[Feline Darkmage]

I was watching from a distance on and off today, and just watched an hour and a half or so of Jim's response stream and leafed through this thread.

This is far worse than I could have even anticipated it being. Everyone already went over the pedophile shit he kept insinuating about Jim and the "I'm not mad, you're mad" fart huffing.

I think we should talk more about how he threw Dankula under the bus and how he applauds NIgel Farage's "IRL Trolling" but Jim's trolling and what Metojur did is baaaad and JImbo's a baaaad maaaan.

Or his inability to understand that friends don't let friends embarrass themselves like this in favour of "oh he's my friend he's not doing anything wrong" 24/7. Of course you listen to your friends and stick up for them when they are being wrongly hassled, but he doesn't see any nuance or difference between that and his sycophantic echo chamber buddies.

The cherry on top of the autism sundae however, had to be when he said Jim and his "side" or "community", whatever you want to call it, would wind up imploding because of dishonesty and not trusting one another.

All while his "Skeptics" have been on a downward spiral due to Kraut's paranoia and his (Carl of Applebees) own ego.

 

[Absolutego]

Gamergate was a mistake.

If you can't appreciate the endless drama autism it's generated, regardless of which particular group of spergs you thought had the more cogent point, I don't know what to tell you. It's like an autism singularity on the internet, generating endless cows regardless of one's political outlook.

 

[symantec]

Every time someone attacks Jim they use the same formula. Attack his anonymity, his audience, and his lack of empathy for the people he trolls. As if that's something his audience cares about. We could build a giant-ass bingo board out of this shit.

 

[NIA-DOA 2.0]

Ahh, so Sargon has finally gone full lolcow. Never go full lolcow, Sargon.

Seriously, though, who didn't see the Skeptics becoming a bunch of lolcows once the sjw community began to fade? Like, the writing was on the wall once the "kekistan" thing became a tumor of autism.

Shamefully, it took around the turn of this year to realize the shameful incestuousness of the Skeptic artistocracy

 

[Sheryl Nome]

I think what people really aren't touching on is that Sargon has more than insinuated at this point, and has outright stated that he doesn't think Jim is sick and that Jim is using that to get sympathy from viewers and get more money

Which is really fucked up from Don Sargone

Perhaps calling Jim a child molesting pedo was just a ploy to cover up how fucked up that accusation is.
