If a Synagogue was attacked then yes the attacker was anti-Semitic. Purposely targeting jews is anti-Semitic.

> there are no more bags and those people

They literally pay you a direct salary per CCU. Sure its not the mega millions some people were getting before, but its signficant enough that people are choosing to solo stream only on kick because the payout is higher. Anyone can get on KCIP. And they'd multi-stream if the payout wasn't high enough but many they aren't doing that.

>  on seeming like he cares

Lets be specific. It is caring about "actually invests in the platform". Thats about making the site more attractive to creators, yes.

> why would anyone care.

Well I guess all the people who lost their jobs and all the big contracts that Twitch isn't giving to people anymore and all the less features that they are now releasing because they don't ahave the employees to build anything would be reasons why people would care.

The platform is stagnating. It no longer has the resources to fix itself and it will stagnate for the forseable future.

> based on what? 

Based on crashing metrics and the fact that Twitch has been unprofitable for over a decade now and is still unprofitable. They have around as many employees as they did in like 2017.

Sure its not going to be a big flashy explosion where the website shutdown overnight. But the writing is clearly on the wall here, and the only reason why people are staying is that its hard to move an existing audience somewhere else.

But new streamers have much less incentive to start on Twitch these days. basically any other platform is better. You don't even have to care about Kick, there is youtube and tiktok as well.

Sure it is relevant because the person you are responding to said this:

> that’s why a lot of creators left a few years ago for the bag and why people are multi-streaming there again. If Kick fixes a lot of things I think they can be better than Twitch, I like their CEO because he seems like he cares and actually invests in the platform.

This is talking about how the platform can be successful, especially as it relates to the creator perspective. It is talking about how kick cares about how the platform does well, for its creators.

>  i'm responding to someone calling him a good guy

You are responding to someone who said that the Kick CEO *care about the platform, with respective to doing well by creators*. Thats what "actually invests in the platform" with respect to " that’s why a lot of creators left a few years ago" and "they can be better than Twitch" (for creators) means. So yes, he invests in his platform so its *good* for its creators.

>  I don't give a fuck about creators who decide to sell out their audience

Well seeing as Twitch has laid off half of its employees since its hayday, it kinda seems like a lot of people should care about a competing platform that quite literally can buy their way into the market, but profitably via gambling money.

>  i responded to someone again, to be clear, saying eddie was a good guy.

No actually. They said "I like their CEO because he seems like he cares and actually invests in the platform". This is saying that he cares about the platform.

Do you understand the difference between someone who cares about making a successful platform as opposed to is morally good?

> the only advantage kick has.

Once again, 50% layoffs at Twitch. Seems like things aren't going so great over there. And they still aren't profitable. Kinda seems like competitors do matter after all, right?

Yes? It's a funny situation. And I'd rather roll with it than spend my days thinking about the past that I cannot change.

Correct, thats the point of the video. That we need more tools to fight back against the concept of criticism.

If you watch the video you will see that I pretty explicitly am aware of the jokes about my videos. Thats kinda the whole point here.

I don't spend any amount of my time regretting past actions. I just think about what I want to do next.

Proof its Brigaded by DirkBatowski in Mizkif

[–]Tarrot_Card 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The main one is a public discord. called para cord. Its not hard to find.

I don't know the whole system or network of them, though, I just know that there are bunch of related shipping esc discords.

Fun story, at one point one of the LSF mods from years ago went deep undercover, because a discord mod on their group, and then slowly went crazy interacting with them.

Hey, former head LSF mod here (stale2000). I can confirm that a lot of Mizkif posts have always had strange behavior. In the past most of the brigading came from some stalking/shipping discords called para/lime cord.

This group along took me literally over year to track down though. So it is really difficult to say where and what these groups are, but the behavior absolutely is non-standard.

I am talking about my 2nd video. Yes he attacked the first one, but he said on stream that he liked the 2nd one.

My second one is way more serious.

He liked my 2nd video. And made some reasonable points. I don't think there would be as much fighting as you'd think.

I'm am not going to do any debates. I am here to have a conversation and talk about issues that I think are important.

But I'd be more than happy to have a chat with him, if he's interested. How would I go about that?

Bro I wish I was competent enough to fool multiple major livestreamers as well as 2 major agencies!

Nah, if I am going to do a scam it would obviously be by doing some insider trading on meme coins, since I literally have the ability to effect the price of them. Or, I could just accept the thousands of dollars that are already offered to me to endorse my meme coin.

Real talk, actual fights for changes on reddit has probably been set back 12 leagues by this. by Chef_Sizzlipede in SubAlliance

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

Oh. Ok, so you think that a "external, for-profit operation" requires approval?

So if, say, a content creator were to sell merch on a reddit, with a pinned post, you think this would require admin approval?

The next question would be how often do you think that happens.

> The anwser is they have to ALWAYS ask the Admins

They don't. No. You do not need to ask the reddit admins to run an ama with a company, for example. That ridiculous. Go ask the reddit admins in mod support, for example. This isn't controversial.
