              This isn’t a random youtuber and his video isn’t clickbait. You not understanding why people are talking about him posting this video is not the same as these discussions being pointless or spam.

                for your generation maybe?

                You’re right, i can’t understand how someone can make a name by streaming himself playing games and then become a reliable source for browser comparisons or linux. I can’t understand why anybody would like to watch someone else playing a “video game” either, but there is a whole generation that grew up with that. I have streamer neighbors. It’s not only that i can’t understand, but i think of these activities as pathetic.

                let’s end this useless conversation here. You can keep talking about him all your life, i prefer to filter him.

                There was an interesting podcast about mr.Beast on the Guardian this week. I was never interested in his videos either, I remember reading his Wikipedia page some years ago to understand what he’s about. For me, they’re both negligible symptoms of something going really wrong. Their analysis may be interesting, they on the other hand are not.

                  “I’m incapable of understanding the nuance of someone with a lot of influence speaking out in favor of a topic I advocate for because I’m ignorant and judgemental towards certain activities and people who make a living off of them”

                  Yeah okay, bud. Good mentality you got there. But you’re right, this conversation is pointless, so let’s end it here.
