IT'S CALLED FEDERALISM, DUMBASS! There's literally a thousand conservatives and libertarians that are actively advocating for that right the fuck now. It's something Brett Kavanaugh would probably be in favor of. And yet you insult all of them you dense, irritating meatbag fatbag!
 
So it's clear that Bob has no idea what made Star Wars so popular. It's true there were some avant garde aspects to it (Many of the people/story ideas that were slated to be in Jodorosky's cancelled "Dune" project wound up in the production of the first Star Wars film,) but the film was popular mainly because it was a big screen spectacle with groundbreaking special effects and a heroic callback to earlier media. People living in the Watergate era of government corruption filled with moral grayness really resonated with a simple story of a simple hero and a rag tag band of rebels fighting against a clearly defined evil. You'd think Bob would have picked up on this, with him having a black/white moral view of the universe himself. (I guess it's because the main two heroes of the original Star Wars movie were cishet white males and any story that features cishet white males doing heroic things is an agent of feminist/minority oppression.)
In the 2004 Documentary Star Wars Empire of Dreams Bill Moyers and Walter Cronkite said basically what you did about the post Vietnam/Watergate Era and New Hollywood and how people wanted to be entertained also they pointed out Star Wars was just fun too.

I saw this and quickly thought of Bob.

a bit :offtopic: but i feel the need to comment on this line of thinking and why it makes people like Bob such fucking cunts

This sounds clear, yeah, nazis are totally bad, but then they call you a nazi, or call people who obviously aren't nazis nazis, and if you don't agree that they are nazis and therefore are bad, you are now a nazi, and bad.

And thats how we end up with Bob calling people who disagree with him about the quality of video games and marvel movies nazis.
 

Bob "fat white man who lives cozy off patreon and his brothers income, while having disdain for the less privileged" Chipman is certainly one to talk about people being poor champions for their teams.

Identity Politics is unpopular and divisive, and embracing it causes normal, rational people to evacuate the party doing it.

"Nazi" is to Blob and his ilk what the curse-me-ha-me-ya is to Chris-Chan: a magic word that marks the target for being a bullyjerk (or whatever) and strips them of all human consideration. The difference between the two is that unlike Chris, Bob and the rest of his parasite ilk have a not inconsiderable amount of social power to hurt people they mark this way. Imagine Chris-Chan as Joe McCarthy and you're in the right time zone.

It's convenient for them because the actual Nazis have been effectively extinct since 1945, and only live on as a cultural boogeyman propped up by the post-WWII institutions that draw their legitimacy from (ironically) their defeat of the Nazis. To put some historical perspective on this, the gap between us and the actual Nazi Party (1945-2018, 73 years) is greater than the gap between the Nazis' rise to power and the formation of Germany as a state (1871-1933, 62 years.) I'd say "worrying about the Nazis in 2018 is as ridiculous as worrying about the Ottomans in 2018," except that would be wrong. Given Erdogan's de-secularization of Turkey, the Ottomans are actually much more relevant to [the current year] than the Nazis.
 
I decided to check on Blob again after going to youtube and seeing the escapist channel was uploading new Bob stuff. Aparently he got his old job back. Check his patreon (he was just below $3k last I saw) and he is over $4k. WTF? I guess Bob really does have a cult niche audience. The SJW crowd he was begging to join but never invited him to their secret meetings (Anita, Zoe, etc.) never backed him in any form. I can see why Escapist re-hired. They are probably paying a fraction what they paid before and he probably has very real close friends who just wanted him to stop being a lolcow so they wouldn't have to axe him. He's not bad as an obscure nerd culture channel when he stays on point, but he had to inject his weird fucked politics in everything.

I could understand him having a fan base back then, but now? Nerd culture is kinda dying a bit, Bobs content isn't getting better, Bob hasn't become less of a lolcow... WHO THE HELL NOT ONLY LIKES BLOBS CONTENT BUT THINKS IT'S GOOD ENOUGH TO PAY FOR?!

I have a few theories for Bob's inexplicable popularity:

1. He made a deal with the Devil: Income, success and a sycophantic fandom in exchange for his soul, natural charm and fashion sense.

2. George Soros/CIA/The Deep State is funneling money/support to Bob in the hopes that his inflammatory rhetoric will cause aneurysms, apoplectic fits, and cardiac infarctions among the Alt-Right.

3. Bob's one of the Lizard people who secretly run the world (only he's one of the less successful at it, so his frustrated Lizard relatives throw some Patreon shekels his way to keep him off the streets.)

4. All of his Patreon supporters and sycophantic twitterfans are contributing to him for ironic reasons; they're all betting on how far Bob can stick his own foot in his mouth before the mainstream SJW community comes down on him for making them all look like deranged sociopaths obsessed about Moon Wheat.

5. There are dimensional rifts in random parts of the world through which digital information flows - those people whom we see contributing to Bob actually live in a parallel bizarro universe where Bob is a handsome, charismatic e-celebrity whose insightful commentary and profound cultural essays influence the ebb and flow of Hollywood. In Bizarro Universe, at least seven of Bob's movie treatment crossovers have been turned into blockbuster movies, and Bob has slept with more women in that universe than he has chins in this one. (In other words, at least five.)

6. Bob's siblings are actually the ones writing his twitter fanmail and contributing to his Patreon under false names. None of them want to be the one who has to tell their Mother that Bob hanged himself in front of a badly painted green wall in their basement out of despair and loneliness. So they try to keep Bob's spirits up by pretending to be his internet Cheerleader Squad.

7. (And I think this is the most likely), there are people on the internet more midwitted and pathetic than Bob.

Let me address my takes on these:

1. He made a shitty deal. While he makes some income, only the fact that he's mooching off family makes it a livable income. Success...well, your mileage may vary, but if I told my grandfather Bob was considered successful he'd probably hit me with a wrench.

2. Possibly plausible, except I think Bob's audience is too small.

3. "Bob" and "run" in the same sentence is just absurdly funny.

4. Completely plausible, if not excusable.

5. Since this reminds me of Bioshock Infinite, is there a universe where Bob gets held underwater for too long?

6. Scarily plausible. Imagine being so pathetic you have to have your siblings cheer you up indirectly through Twitter.

7. YOU'RE WINNER!

As depressing as it is to realise, Bob does have genuine fans. These days they tend to fall into three categories:

  1. SJWs who align with Bob’s politics and don’t see anything wrong with him wishing genocide on the right.
  2. People who were fans of Bob “back in the day” (i.e. before he sold out to Sarkeesian and co.) who give him a free pass for old time’s sake or can filter out the Social Justice sperging. If you read the early pages of the thread (which was created at roughly the same time Bob had his meltdown over GamerGate) there were Kiwis saying they enjoyed Bob’s content who more or less fell into this category. That’s impossible to contemplate now but at the time Bob hadn’t quite evolved into the basement dictator we all know and despise.
  3. People who avoid Bob’s Twitter and can separate him from his politics. These are by far the rarest and Bob’s film analysis is terrible on its own so I’m not sure what these people see in him even discounting his political views (which he injects into his videos anyway, so I don’t know how exactly you can separate the man from his politics even if you do avoid his Twitter), but people like this do exist as I showed earlier in the thread.

I don't know if he gets money from his family or not, but @zedkissed60 confirmed that he isn't living in their basement anymore, the post is quoted in the OP. So I have no idea why ppl still think he lives in his mom's basement.

Instead, he is now paying money to live in another person's basement apartment, which to me is far, far funnier, you would think that he'd go for a studio apartment, something with natural light, but no. :story:
 
People are joking that Bob is a lizard man but his corpulent build, penchant for living in holes, and his petty attitude make me think more of a rodent than anything reptilian. Or perhaps comparing him to an insect would be just as apropos. He strikes me as less something the Lizard People/SJWs would eat in as dramatic a fashion as one of their own and more like a creature they would normally eat or crush underfoot but for whatever reason tolerate for now. Naturally they'd make a mental note to eat or crush him later if he steps out of line.

I think people are saying he lives in his brother's basement, I haven't seen his mom mentioned in a post for a while.
