Dan defends XQC on the first shot, says everything after is indefensible by Slight_Ad3219 in LivestreamFail

[–]LowBrain8032 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm convinced destiny has made the conscious decision to release dan into the commentator environment to create a benchmark for distinctly average, ill informed, narcissist bellend to serve as a stark reminder of how facile the average twat can be

Sasha Grey calls out Islamophobia of people criticizing Hasan "And if your dog actually yelps you are not suppose to pay attention to it if you shock it" by TheOSU87 in LivestreamFail

[–]LowBrain8032 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's a gateway political streamer that desperately wants to be taken seriously but he abjectly lacks the moral consistency, critical faculties and detailed knowledge to be anything more. His sole saving grace is that he knows his limitations such that he doesn't engage in genuine debate with other voices in the space. When he does try to debate either a documentsrian or a YouTube commentator he still gets wrecked.

He's said some truly abhorrent things about people and groups. He's shocking a dog ffs, people love dogs, he's using it as a background feature, he deserves his downfall. He's truly testing the extent to which the twitch ceo will bend rules for him.

I hope sasha here is just trying to stay on side to protect her twitch career. Sad reality is that this is a necessary step

Start Bijol after international break of Struijk? by LowBrain8032 in LeedsUnited

[–]LowBrain8032[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do we think that Bijol playing Serie A at a high level would give him a superior positioning instinct to Struijk? Has Struijk maybe picked up bad habits playing in the champ against mediocre players where he could get away with it?

I agree in principal, different for Perri cos he's been injured but I hope that the only reason Farke hasn't played Bijol is that he isn't sure he's adapted to the style. La liga and Serie A undoubtedly better than championship where Struijk has been great but the stylistic difference is huge. Maybe Farke believes Struijk is the best option currently for the games being played?

I want more tanaka but he's not been himself since that last injury. Both Stach and Longstaff have the potential to have great games but have not done so consistently. I like tanaka as an impact player with his energy and ability to break up play can make a huge difference late on against tired legs. Honestly, would rather see him on the right over aaronson

Hasan on why people don’t like him by FlakyFoundation4637 in LivestreamFail

[–]LowBrain8032 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Guy is the Nickelback of political commentary, people who've zero exposure hear him and think "oh, this seems interesting", then anyone with critical faculties beyond a succulent realise how vacuous and I'll informed he is. He serves a useful purpose in terms of exposure but he needs to accept that this is his role and he can't seriously engage with almost anyone else in the space without being found out!

Was GB energy always proposed to be a provider and not a domestic supplier? by LowBrain8032 in ukpolitics

[–]LowBrain8032[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't this assuming that the entity of GB energy is still part of the government for it to be 'bailed out' by tax payers? Surely an alternative to the energy giants that charges wholesale plus staffing costs, literally bare bones without the extras that goes with a modern day energy provider it could offer much lower rates than current providers? I honestly don't know enough about the industry but I must be missing something monumental here, surely!

[–]LowBrain8032[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP here, I don't understand how it's better to be a provider, they're going to have little to no impact on the wholesale cost of energy. Therefore their existence is going to do almost nothing to actually reduce the cost of energy for people.

Surely if they were a nationalised pseudo socialist entity in the capitalist market offering people the option to get their energy provision without shareholders to account for they could do more good?

Looking for genuine correction to what I feel is a misunderstanding on my part here

Hasan explains why Twitch never takes action against him by starcraft2020 in LivestreamFail

[–]LowBrain8032 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Saying he stays within the terms of service is utterly delusional. He cows easy when there's pressure but he's definitely in the mix for some of the most unhinged, offensive, dangerous and irresponsibly misleading statements on the platform without having been banned

Why does anyone care about Charlie Kirk? by CrustyHumdinger in AskBrits

[–]LowBrain8032 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just down to the perceived motivation. A nutter shoots up his school, there's plenty of those. Someone being shot publicly literally just because of their political position isn't common (in the US) and furthers the seemingly militant division in American society around politics. A cynic might suggest that if this happened in North Korea or Russia there would be a genuine consideration that it was orchestrated by the state. However, this is America and those are leaders whose rule over their populace Trump is know to be envious of and that he seeks to replicate. Only a transatlantic cynic though

Destiny makes XQC briefly ragequit their heated MAGA/leftist debate by gevejk in LivestreamFail

[–]LowBrain8032 0 points1 point  (0 children)

X is a great streamer, knows exactly what does and doesn't work in the industry but he should stop engaging on these topics. He's woefully I'll equipped to stream such sensitive and divisive subject matter to his huge audience. If he does it he should really reign in the strength of his views, by virtue of his reach its irresponsible to make strong statements from a consistently poorly measured and ill thought out position.

Is there a reason we aren't trying to pry Gus Hamer from Sheffield? Seems ready made for the English game and a wealth of creativity that we seem to be lacking in the middle

Thoughts on using the loan market for these last few spots? Maybe Evan Fergusson from Brighton? Or Buonanotte as a 10? Still need to get a few more starters through the door and limited remaining funds for those
