It was first reported that Asmongold was banned on August 6. He uploaded a video to youtube ~5 hours ago saying that his ban will last for 2 weeks. The youtube video has around 1 million views.

If the internet goads him enough it might be able to get him to crash out like H3 did. When these streamers take Ls if you can make them take successive Ls they get severe mental health problems from their numbers going down and it really fucks with them. They spiral very badly.

Problem with Ratboy here is this: Where the fuck does he spiral?

He's already living like he's the Muckman, spiraling would probably mean death

spiraling would probably mean death

truly nothing of value would be lost

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 16 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I can see him going on a shooting spree

[–] GenderIsOpSec@hexbear.net 21 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

inside his house? this mfer wouldnt step outside even if his life depended on it

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I can see that, yeah

Just turns his hoarder-shack into a death fortress and start going Texas clocktower

[–] GenderIsOpSec@hexbear.net 7 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

fair.

the mitigating factor in that case is that (i assume) he lives in suburbia so targets would be harder to come by

the more i think about this the more likely it is, truly the final "fuck you" of his putrid existence would be to shoot some poor bystanders before he kills himself

Which comic is this panel from?

[–] miz@hexbear.net 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

best I could get from searching is that it's from a series called "Foolkiller", unknown issue

[–] Krinkil2705@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Ig it's time for me to dive in another rabbit hole which I'll forget about a month later.

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 4 points 3 weeks ago

Most of the Foolkiller comics aren't that good

Just another vigilante following on the heels of The Punisher's success

His only real difference from Punisher is that Foolkiller also goes after political targets, which being written by the Marvel bullpen of the 80's means a lot of jabs against Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton

Which, as we all know, means nothing and the Marvel writers are certainly not racist

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

All of his streaming is a coping strategy for personal problems that made him live the way he does. It is his only outlet and he completely buries himself in it because he has nothing else.

I doubt it would mean death, he'd just go back to anonymous guild content like he had before.

When we say literally nothing of the sort, the right: you want us all dead

When moldgold says to kill immigrant children, the right: he's just saying what we're all thinking and we're all fed up

God forbid the right should experience the consequence of everyone being fed up with them, no; Brown people though? Roman salute time

[–] CyborgMarx@hexbear.net 31 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Some may not know this, but the prevailing rumor concerning internal Twitch management is that the admin wants to wait for the midterms before they permanently ban the Cockroach King, because they believe Asmon has institutional Republican support behind him

Frankly I think they're a bunch of liberal cowards and are overstating matters, 2025 has come and gone; not even the Republican party wants to launch some legal challenge on behalf of a cockroach breeding incel advocate of child murder

He has no motion in the US, his fans are either bots or European incels

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 14 points 3 weeks ago

That means he and twrixh in general have too much power. This world is rotten to the fucking core rn

Sounds like he made a terrorist threat. Where is homeland security when you need them?

[–] SickSemper@hexbear.net 37 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

they’re racing to his house to offer him a job

[–] dead@hexbear.net 32 points 3 weeks ago

In the youtube video, Asmongold says that immigrants are using their children as "human shields" and therefore government agents are justified to shoot the children. He's using Israeli talking points

[–] userse31@hexbear.net 3 points 3 weeks ago

They don't want to contract mystery diseases.

The left threatens capitalism and capitalist privilege, while fascists don't, so they get away with shit that we never could.

[–] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 23 points 3 weeks ago

One of the things that really sucks about this guy is remembering the way his voice went up an octave in giddy excitement while reacting to Nick Fuentes

That was 100% the real guy right there, and it’s him being a giggling gremlin that gets a dopamine rush from vicarious sexism and racism somebody “braver” said outloud.

If I were capable of feeling a positive emotion toward him it would be me dying of secondhand embarrassment

[–] MeetMeAtTheMovies@hexbear.net 22 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

It’s a big deal that Ben Shapiro has fallen off a cliff and this dirtbag has gotten so huge imo. The fascists are looking for their talking points to be even less logical and even more mask off. Not a step in the right direction.

[–] free_casc@hexbear.net 20 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Agree but the wheels are really falling off. It isn't a done deal yet (for several reasons), but i think the cultural pendulum is already on its way back from "proto-fascism" toward "social democracy". The ideological effect is not necessarily going to mean electoral gains, but we can see that it's having a significant effect already.

[–] axont@hexbear.net 17 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I prefer when reactionaries are honest. I hate when they try to hide behind a layer of respectability.

[–] SerialExperimentsGay@hexbear.net 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I agree that on an emotional level, weasely suit and tie reactionaries are the worst. But when they can go mask off in significant numbers, when they can parade a rotten fiend like this around as their figurehead, it's definitely not a good sign for how things are going.

[–] Wakmrow@hexbear.net 1 points 3 weeks ago

I dunno we're pretty fucking tired

[–] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 7 points 3 weeks ago

Ah, you too hate liberals

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 20 points 3 weeks ago

Piece of shit roach

[–] ComRed@hexbear.net 19 points 3 weeks ago

It's amazing what the right can say and do and get away with it with little to no consequences. If leftists did even close to the same thing, all hell would brake lose. Really shows what the system considers its enemy.

[–] Moomoo_Milk@hexbear.net 11 points 3 weeks ago

He has been banished back to the Garden of Nurgle. A shame it's not for longer.

[–] MidnightPocket@hexbear.net 6 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Imagine having a full name less than ten characters.

[–] CloutAtlas@hexbear.net 13 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

My full name is only 3 characters but that's pretty normal for Chinese people.

[–] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 4 points 3 weeks ago

It's a pretty common thing in the West too.

[–] MidnightPocket@hexbear.net 3 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah I'm just being cheeky aubrey-bat

[–] Krem@hexbear.net 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

imagine having a wacky name like "zack hoyt" and choosing to go by a 2004-esqe internets handle like "asvromestronalth" instead of just deleting some letters from your name and going by the cooler "zoyt"

[–] CloutAtlas@hexbear.net 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Zackrawrr was his original handle where he was uploading videos of him in high school.

[–] Krem@hexbear.net 6 points 3 weeks ago

random and reddit but still miles behind "zoyt"

[–] segfault11@hexbear.net 4 points 3 weeks ago

two weeks off isn't enough time to wash away the stank
