 Being a yt douchebro and bitching about Hilary Clinton is not the same as having a job lol

Playing videogames? Srsly?

lololol

Those people who do heritage home reno, ok.

Musicians, poets historians, ok.

But douchebros and mgtows and PUAs

stfu lol

They're an even worse kind of malingerer.

Always tryinta blame women or poc or some politician for their sickness.

Not even stopping at "please support my wellness fund" but also begging ppl to support some douchey politician they've been duped by.

That. Is. Not. Employment.  :P

You might as well say News Reporters and Reality TV people don't deserve to get paid. 

Reporting The News is important.

Even when that news is based in human interest, pop culture, videogames, etc? 

You'd find The Soup from E! to be more valuable than what's online? 

Reality tv blah lol

But no, they usually get paid like other tv shows get paid, don't they?

What's your point, that one deserves money over the other simply because of the medium? 

There's a product placement like "Hey Gracie, I'm lovin this Carnation canned milk" or w/e?

They often compete for the sponsor's product? Like on The Price is Right?

Even if I'm not a fan of the product myself, it's usually smthg that makes somebody's life easier or happier.

So it's acceptable, imo.

Youtubers do sponsors too. 

 I didn't say every youtuber is an asshole, either.

Read before you argue ffs.

That is one of the most annoying things about you.

I don't think "Farting Our Way Through History" has been done yet, but that may have been done for the others.

My confusion then came from you responding like that to this prompt:

It made it seem as if "Patreon Funding" when it's not over very few things doesn't deserve their money, even if you'd find the very same things seemingly acceptable if aired on cable television over sponsors..? 

lol don't conflate my silly posts with my serious posts.

You know better than that.

But by all means, if you have a penchant for farting, and for history, then feel free to make the channel idea all yours  XD

I think the root of this is that Xena is envious that some people can make a comfortable living off of streaming.

Well holy fuck 

Imma make a yt channel where all I do is fart lol

Maybe ppl will pay me for that, too.

 

But no, that's not working.

And I think it's at the heart of 3/4 of what's been wrong in the world for the last 25 years.

It started with giving barely literate man babies a platform to whine on.

They're tryinta undo the progress of the last 70 years and throw us right back into Medieval times.

 Most of the "barely illiterate men" are far more talented than you are. 

You're just an ignorant racist bigot.

 lol no they're not.

They're doing the exact same thing I'm doing right now, right this second.

They're bitching and griping.

But they expect people to pay them for it.

 They're smart and make good arguments.

You: Chinese men can't be rude so you're not Chinese

I can explain the videogame one though, as I watch that shit too actually. 

For poor people like me who cannot afford next generation consoles and otherwise can't just throw money around at every single game that comes out, videos on games give a way to see if the content is worth purchasing if not at least being able to see the story of the game without having control of it for free (or whatever they'd donate). A lot of games I've purchased have first had me watching a 20 minute gameplay video of it to garner my interest, to sell the product to me like a commercial except with content not as blatantly insulting towards it's audience. 

There's also people who play these games either innovatively or as a master of it. Innovators will explore the boundaries of the game's code and use that to see how every nook and cranny of it works as a sort of exploration, while one who is about Mastery is simply so good at it that it impresses those who've tried and not done even half as well. There's also those in between who give themselves self-imposed challenges, like speedrunning or restricting the tools they're allowed to use. There is something to the guy who beat Dark Souls using the Donkey Kong bongos for example, it's both absurd and fascinating. 

Games are an art form, just like movies and books, simply meant to get a story across in a way that the one participating in it can delve or even immerse themselves in. There's a lot of games that are not just some rehash of Call of Duty or Halo, but rather an art piece that portrays something deeper through giving the controls to the player (you see a lot of control subversion in the Indie genre and other experimental forms). Beyond that, there's also a lot to watching how another would play a game, much like watching how another would play a sport, for what choices they make differently and what talents they have.

I don't have the flatulence nor the historical knowledge to pull it off.

lol my ADHD segues again.

Hint: pay attention to my fanboys clauses (for, and, but, or, yet, so.) I use some crazy sentence twists to make my points more vividly. I will often make a point with a personal anecdote about how I used to feel one way about smthg BUT THEN I SAW THE LIGHT! as it were. I will also (incorrectly) write my fanboys clause or prepositional phrase as a separate sentence fragment.

For emphasis.

Also, that list is nowhere near complete.

I believe that way more than 4 yt subjects should earn money for their creators.

But I'd be here all day listing them.

Pretty much anything that pushes the boundaries of hate speech should not make money.

We're allowed to speak bc it's a free country.

But asking people to pay us for being assholes is a few shades more nasty.
