WTF is this list?
I don’t consider ThePrimeagen a weird guy. This does more harm than being useful. Therefore I cannot trust this list. I don’t like public lists of shame anyway, as this encourages witch hunting of people he personally does not like.
Most of the time i see clips of him it’s some sort of rage baiting or shit stirring, which may not be weird, but is shitty and not worth my time. The thing you quoted also says he’s not weird directly but is associated with weird people 🤷♀️
Do you watch and follow him? If not, then off course all you see controversial stuff, because that is what makes it popular. And I do not consider his content to be rage baiting and shit stirring, maybe when making jokes. So taking it out of context could seem to be like that. I follow two channels of Primeagen and watch him for years and cannot agree with your statement. Also every person is associated with weird people. This list is one of the worst lists to put people into shame or as warning to he public, nobody should do that! This list needs to be taken down quickly before it does more harm. Because anyone reading it comes to conclusions like you.
👍
I watched him for a while. And I’d say 95% of the tims, it’s fine. Chitchat, banter, technical things. But then the remaining 5% of the time, there’s suddenly a weird off the cuff remark, something that really seems like a dogwhistle, or just otherwise strange turn of phrase that makes me go huh? and rewind.
I know that’s not a lot individually, but over time it added up enough that I stopped watching.
Do you have any specific examples? I have not seen him enough to find any
My problem with such a list is, that you can always find ans justify a reason to put it here. Most people reading these lists aren’t familiar and have no personal experience and opinion, but will take his word for. If you stopped watching him because of reasons, its your opinion and that is valid. I am not against that! But people looking at these lists will avoid them and think they are bad persons. Yes in some cases they probably are, but the viewer cannot know (that’s why they look into these lists).
Tell me one person who is not weird.
Several of those are fairly borderline. You would think Drew Devault of all people would understand that its ok to not be 100% squeaky clean.
I’m not saying that list doesn’t include a lot of creeps, but maybe he shouldn’t have included “donated to an organisation that includes someone who is antagonistic” and “is an average American Christian” along with the “fervent defender of paedophilia”.
Proton too? I literally just migrated there this year. Is it all even worth it at this point
this shit is why i’m unironically trying to prepare myself for the day that i just can’t fucking bear to use computers any more, like i’m trying to slowly wean myself off being a “tech guy” and into learning to use a sewing machine and just being happy picking mushrooms in the forest and going to the gym…
