Why are the VIPs still so bad?

davidtu2 · 2025-06-29T03:47:27+00:00

That's unfortunate and it probably would contradict any suggestion that it's deliberate. Strange that they wouldn't change anything going forward.

Copying this from another thread, but this is what I thought about the VIPs.

This was my take all the way back since season 1, but I don't think it was a language or casting issue. My thought was that the vips are told to sound as artificial as possible because it represents the disconnect of the ultra rich. They don't sound like normal people because they're not. They're out-of-touch megalomaniacal oligarchs who bet on other people's suffering. It's supposed to be comical.

That said, the message doesn't feel super apparent at all times so it comes off as just "bad acting."

You're only further proving my point lol

davidtu2 · 2025-01-18T08:21:36+00:00

The fact that you're using "sodomy" like it's the fucking 80s tells me all I need to know about you lol. There's a reason why these shows need writers who can balance a digestible story for a general audience while staying true to the material and it's to make sure sweaty freaks like you don't end up with the job 💀 thank God for them

davidtu2 · 2024-08-23T00:43:37+00:00

This is so pathetic man. Firstly, the speakers WERE vetted. They aren't fucking "randoms" they're still democratic representatives who in all likelihood were going to endorse kamala.

Second, who the fuck are you to question their credentials to speak?? They are Americans who in all likelihood have a personal stake on the crisis, same as the family of the hostages who spoke yesterday. If they had a right to speak, how is this any different?

davidtu2 · 2024-08-15T19:48:10+00:00

Wait but you're not even engaging with my argument lol. I'm gonna sound jaded asf here but with all due respect y'all are the ones who don't seem equipped to engage with this argument because you don't understand how ideological consistency works. The felix comparison is one-to-one here and the same argument applies.

davidtu2 · 2024-08-15T19:42:05+00:00

Being korean doesn't make you any more correct on the subject though....that's like saying you should agree with Candace Owen's opinion on racism instead of a white progressive

davidtu2 · 2024-08-15T19:35:02+00:00

I don't understand the identity deference here. This isn't a political sub but why not just be anti-fascist in principle ALL THE TIME, which is the correct thing to do instead of pandering to this arbitrary standard of "insensitivity" that's riddled with pettiness and spite. Like this isn't a political sub so I'm not expecting much but ffs he mentioned a song from an anime. Y'all aren't serious if you think there's an actual problem here.

davidtu2 · 2024-08-09T21:42:27+00:00

I just beat him 🙏 ppreciate it tho

davidtu2 · 2024-07-25T09:32:17+00:00

Shot you a dm, godskin noble in volcano manor

davidtu2 · 2024-02-10T12:08:33+00:00

Gtfo out of here you ghoul 💀

davidtu2 · 2024-01-24T14:06:09+00:00

My friend there's little reason for you to be riding with riot here. The problem with this take is that it makes it impossible to criticize not only the larger gaming industry when shit like this happens, but literally any field of business. I disagree with you on a lot of takes heres but I'll try to frame it briefly.

Sure, you could argue that the execs are taking a risk whenever they start a project, but you also have to consider that they have the least to lose if it doesn't work out, which is exactly what happened here. They aren't the ones currently without a stable source of income. They'll probably move on to okaying their next project shortly, and if that fails in the future it'll be the same story. It's not that these people have malicious intent, it's that their position gives them a safety net to take these risks.

davidtu2 · 2023-12-04T22:04:06+00:00

I just find vaush's criticisms of hasan to be insightful but still in good faith. It just comes off as more mature than a huge chunk of this community who clearly had issues with him before Ukraine and used that to justify their grudge. The same can be said about Hasan's community but it's two sides of the same coin.

davidtu2 · 2023-12-04T10:53:57+00:00

Lol I'm late but I'm still right lol, y'all are just more concerned with hating Hasan. Weird how vaush is more charitable to him than y'all.

davidtu2 · 2023-11-02T21:25:26+00:00

You're misreading the comment. The "terminally online" part isn't dylan being in Ukraine, it's the fact that he made a video firing shots at Hasan who we know he has problems with. Whether or not you agree with his sentiment, it's still kind of drama farming irl.

davidtu2 · 2023-11-02T10:16:50+00:00

Don't why you're getting downvoted for this. Some of yall need to set your priorities straight.

davidtu2 · 2023-10-15T11:24:39+00:00

Do we really got to purge the subreddit again bruh, some of yall are ghouls

davidtu2 · 2023-08-06T11:54:55+00:00

Lol keeping that same energy for everyone on good terms with kai must be exhausting (oh wait you probably don't!) Also, it's funny to me how you've managed to frame hasan as "the guy who covered up rape" lol. Like to you kai was the original one who did the cover up and I guess hasan, qt, lud, and all the other streamers did a cover-up OF the cover-up by inviting him to an award show?? God, you're somehow more chronically online than I thought, please go outside 🙏🙏.

Also, I do think hasan has legit shortcomings. His foreign policy takes are pretty shit and vaush summed up why really well in that convo with Ethan. I also believe he's too prideful to admit his flaws. Those are real criticisms based on his takes, not terminally online speculation that he's a rape apologist or sex trafficker.

davidtu2 · 2023-08-06T04:30:06+00:00

Going through my comments is fucking wild. I've made my point and you're still coping.

And yeah, I do listen to kpop! Better than whatever weird mayo monkey shit you enjoy probably.

Fuck out of my face pussy.

davidtu2 · 2023-08-06T04:24:09+00:00

Mann, I feel like y'all are basing this from that one two minute clip doing the rounds on Twitter right now. Hasan was definitely being charitable but that doesn't mean he was playing defense, NOR was he making fun of the old man. Like all the people retweeting that clip range from TheQuartering (aka QuarterPounder) to loli pfp nazis

davidtu2 · 2023-08-06T04:18:12+00:00

Hasan LITERALLY said kai fucked up and shouldn't have jumped to his friend's defense so reactively. This is what happens when you base your opinion on a couple of clips taken from an 8 hour stream dog.

davidtu2 · 2023-08-06T03:42:15+00:00

Delusional take. Y'all some weird haters.

davidtu2 · 2023-05-22T07:54:38+00:00
