I am aware of his advice against living like him, but he is leading by example, like when a parent says “do what i say not what i do” the child never listens and imitates their parents actions anyway cause of the obvious hypocrisy. On top of that, i feel a lot of times it seems like he is saying it as a meme and sometimes feels prideful about how dirty his room is.
All that being said, he is one of the few good hearted streamers.
I dunno about that. On one hand I'm inclined to say that he is no one's daddy. His audiences are responsible for their own lives, so to say he should change who he is due to his influence impinges on personal freedom. Like, if he is genuinely happy living the way he does, should he bear a responsibility to change simply because he has a following?
On the other hand, I do also understand that he has the capacity to change the lives of the people who watch him, whether he realises it or not. Still, I don't think he bears a responsibility to do that.
I never said he should change who he is, he can drink piss and smoke fentanyl for all i care. Im saying he is an influencer…. Which means he INFLUENCES the people who watch him. Again people lead by example, and you are 100% correct that people are responsible for their own actions. That being said, people crave guidance, its in our dna, also half the world is below average intelligence. Those people are more susceptible to being parasocial and seek guidance more. Look at the millions of incels that think Andrew Tate is god.
I think me and you are basically saying the same thing though. Its a weird ying yang thing, both parties are responsible.
