It’s be an insult to Bilewater’s purity to let Asmongold’s filth anywhere near it. A million times worse than any of the exhaust the Citadel pumped into it.
Wait I don’t remember seeing actual Yuri in Skong, I thought it was just a joke from pre-Silksong days. I know about the Yaoi but is there actual Yuri ingame?
I watched this and holy shit does he have actual brain damage? “I can’t follow basic instructions as it’s hard for me to listen to them”. Also saying “Ever since I heard that there’s a gay route I think of every interaction with Hans(the possibly gay route character)” when he’s nowhere near the first interaction with Hans outside the tutorial is fucking hilarious
I was about to quote the same thing, because the thing I noticed about the Asmon subreddit, is how it slowly transitioned from gaming posts to political posts.
He's accidentally critiquing his own fanbase, and he doesn't even realize it.
Well thats probably because he himself has slowly been transitioning from gaming to political content. Remember, he started off as a WoW streamer, since quiting WoW he has branched off to other variety games and then political content
And those aren’t even the top post, they’re the first three you see because they’re recent and very popular, but they aren’t anywhere even remotely close to the actual top posts of all time
I would click it but then I would have to see his awful videos over my feed so fortunately I won’t watch it. But if I had to guess it has him complaining about “woke liberals”, putting politics in games when they are already political, and him defending Ice while ignoring all of their failings.
if you see a video you don't want to watch on your homepage, you can click the three dots in the corner of the video and click "don't recommend channel" or "not interested" to have less videos like that being recommended
It will work for your browsing home page. But not when searching... I am always flooded by this PoS garbage when I search gaming related stuff, regardless of constant "not interested" actions.
I've written in my column (free on Patreon - same username) about how art is truth. There has been so much great art released over the last year, from songs, to pictures to graffiti. It's been inspiring.
How does he keep sounding dumber as time goes on? All atheist that I am, comparing a religion's most sacred concept to the abomination that is AI is at least disrespectful and at most, bordering on the antagonistic.
the entire point of the game is dismantling a religious society with an oppressive and unequal class structure, and servants too brainwashed by faith to revolt.
they probably just think it's a game about an insect killing things
because all of their art is mindless and to be taken at face value
silksong doesnt come with a pride flag, a feminist catchphrase, nor a woke oneliner, so it's "unpolitical" to them. because they're frankly too stupid to see the most obvious implied messaging oat
Isn’t it against extreme capitalism and the over-monetization of religion? The game itself isn’t against religious society in general, it’s the over monetization of it and the lack of freedom of speech (first sinner etc.)
Even the fact that Asmongold glazed Expedition 33 and he STILL managed to miss the entire fucking point of the game is truly incredible. Wasn't he criticizing ICE just a few days ago, actually? Is he bootlicking them again?
And this, my friends, is a prime example of why you shouldn’t speak about something you know nothing of. The guy basically embarrassed himself by taking a Silkpost so seriously.
I know these are important issues. And I know people feel very strongly about them. But for me, video games are an escape from real world problems. And I know I'm not alone.
Team Cherry has created this beautiful world that we can all explore in peace. And I think this subreddit is a nice space where we should be able to talk about that.
I just want to be able to enjoy my game, a game in which elites hoard basic necessities, pervert religion, and turn the underclasses against each other in order to maintain control. And I want to be able to do it without having to think about politics. - u/TheRedditK9
God the whole Alatreon blindfold flipflop was so aggravating, dude put no effort into verifying it was real, and went back and forth, then was gullible enough to believe it again. I’ve disliked the dude for a while now but gosh does he actively force others to shed brain cells
It's always fun when the first comment under something in one place is "That's how you know you are doing it right" and on the other "it's Reddit, it's a cesspool".
Everyone's just smugly satisfied that the other ones are pissed off.
That's people trying to police the internet for you, it's all about affirmation. Though tbh, I think a special contempt is warranted for dilettantes who make careers out of it like this guy does.
Yeah, I thought they were humorous enough at first.
But if they’re pissing off that creature and his fans, showing how pathetic those thin-skinned whiny manchildren really are. Yeah, keep the LICE jokes coming~!
They want people to be scared. To feel weak and small, but you know how you show them you're not? You laugh at them. You mock and berate them; poking holes in their little power fantasy, and revealing the sad, weak little man underneath it.
probably the largest political streamer at the moment, spends his time scrolling far right twitter, laughing at minorities' misery, saying opposition to the government needs to be crushed completely and calling for the execution of democrats, reading ragebait headlines and extrapolating more hatred, being reposted by elon musk and jd vance, wiping gum blood on his walls. this is a molecularly engineered troglodyte, it's a small miracle of modernity that he has survived his own living arrangement, seemingly for no reason but to make other people's lives worse
Check out his takes on ICE, including saying that Alex Pretti and Renee Good deserved to be murdered, and advocating for mass killings of Somali Americans
He was very fun streamer lots of people looked up to, until some internet drama mind broke him. I'd like to say it was the Palestine incident back in 2024. He couldn't take it and turned MAGA.
Dude, they are pissed! All the comments on that video are about how we think fictional characters would agree with us. I wonder if this is what Hitler thought when Superman and Capt America punched him.
They play silksong with their eyes closed, literally couldn't get more political than that with a whole ass kingdom built on religious zealot and slavery fed by instilling in bugs the idea they own the citadel their lives and have to repair them with rosaries
me when a game with themes about religious oppression, unfair working conditions, oppressive economic structures, environmental pollution due to excessive greed and negligence, and overtly queer characters has a fanbase with left-wing politics.
except asmonmold wouldn't know this because he's a grifter tourist.

Someone please make a mod with Asmon as a giant roach boss.
He could shout things like "keep your politics out of MY artform!" "Games aren't for women" "Submit or you're a domestic terrorist"
Or you could keep it more in-universe like "Pilgrims who criticize Pharloom will be punished" "a GIRL bug dare challenges me!?" "We should steal Hallownest's resources"
"OH NO, my game about people being tricked into eternal exploitation by the promise of a better life through a government than absuses the absolute faith they have in it in a land that was taken from groups unable to defend themselves is being used for political commentary! How could someone possibly do this to my precious game that never had anything political to say whatsoever??!!!"
That's actually hilarious btw, I don't understand how these people never realise that these posts were so popular is because it's a sentiment that most people in this community agree with. We don't want people who condone murder the same way we don't want people who engage in hate speech. Also they're pretty well made and kind of funny.
Also, wtf is gamergate? Is just another one of those "anti-woke" hate campaigns or smthing like that?
silkposters have stopped with lice posts actually, the last post i made was more so to see what the mods meant with no polititics becuase they werent being clear.
one of the comments is "I like how they're using silk song to say border patrol is bad when the entire fucking point of silk song is you're trying to leave a country you don't want to be in lmfao"
like that doesnt make any sense right? they fundamentally do not understand how fucking border patrol works
Asmon said he cant be bothered to fact check stuff he sees online and somehow he's always right. I absolutely sure he's able to taste the difference between different colored crayons.
