Every GOP strategist, consultant, and candidate should be forced to participate in a role-playing exercise this morning.
Your name is Bob. You’re a 49-year-old blue-collar worker in Ohio. You’ve always struggled to make ends meet. The good jobs were all shipped to China and the few remaining pay a pittance wage, undercut by endless illegal labor.
You’re a 3x Trump voter because you believed he would finally make America great again.
You put your son through Ohio State. He graduated cum laude in computer science. You couldn’t have been prouder. After months searching, he landed an entry-level job at Microsoft. Beneath his qualifications, but a good start for a smart kid.
Then he got laid off. That same month, Microsoft applied for 150,000 more H-1B visas because it can’t find qualified Americans.
Your son has spent six months back in his childhood bedroom, sending hundreds of applications without landing an interview.
On TV, Trump boasts about the greatest economy in history and how many women and minorities are finding jobs.
You decide a father-son steak night might cheer him up.
Gas is $4.50 a gallon. Filling your truck costs over $100. At Kroger, ribeyes are $30/lb. You settle for hamburger, even though 70/30 ground beef still costs $10+.
At checkout, a fat black woman is screaming at the cashier because her EBT will only cover most of the filet mignon and lobster in her cart.
You think to yourself how the Iran war has made everything expensive, but at least we’re stopping their nuclear bomb. You weren’t even sure where Iran was before you googled it after we first bombed them in March.
After dinner, you take your son to the county fair. Half the people aren’t speaking English. Virtually none of the crowd looks like you. You’re forced to leave early after a “teen takeover” turns violent. A foreign born judge pledges none of them will go to jail.
Back home, you turn on the TV. Vivek Ramaswamy is lecturing the crowd about American mediocrity and why Ohio needs more foreign talent.
Your son grows upset. You change the channel.
Now a Republican surrogate, the daughter of a governor or wife of an elderly billionaire, explains that young White men are the REAL welfare queens. They’d rather play videogames in their parents’ basements than work.
Your son says nothing. He just goes back to his childhood bedroom. You turn off the TV.
Then your neighbor starts blasting reggaeton and cracking open Modelos. He brought his cousin’s family from Mexico to help with all the minority-business contracts his construction firm keeps winning. Tonight they’re celebrating his nephew’s birth, the family’s first birthright American citizen.
You sit alone in your living room.
You worked hard, paid taxes, obeyed the law, and raised your son to do everything right. You voted Republican again and again because you believed somebody in Washington would finally fight for you.
Instead, your wages are stagnant. Groceries are unaffordable. Your community is unrecognizable. Your country is fighting another foreign war.
And upstairs, the son you sacrificed everything for is lying awake in the bedroom he slept in at twelve, wondering what the heck he’s even supposed to do with his life now.
Every time you turn on the TV, the Republicans you elected are either congratulating themselves or explaining why you and your son are the problem.
For ten years, they told you America’s future depended on your vote. Now you aren’t even sure America has a future worth defending.
The Republican Party needs to answer one simple question this morning:
You’ve spent a decade demanding Bob’s loyalty. You’ve given him stagnant wages, unaffordable groceries, another foreign war, and a son who did everything right but can’t find work.
And when they complain, you call them lazy, entitled, and racist.
What possible reason have you given Bob and his son to vote Republican? Do you honestly think you deserve their vote?

“WE HAD A GOOD THING YOU ORANGE SON OF A B*TCH. We had the senate, we had the house, we had the billionaires. All you needed to do was to shut up, deport people and we would be fine. But no, you just had to bomb Iran for the jews”

My oldest son is LGBTQ identifying.
We went to vote together at our local polling station.
“If the republicans win, they’re going to make life hell for people like me.”
“I know.” I said.
Voted straight R. Can’t stand his gay ass.

Asmongold reacts to the Dead by Daylight community trying to get TheBurntPeanut removed from The Streamer Awards
"Do you think QTCinderella will bend the knee on the Peanut thing? No. The reality is that Peanut didn't do anything wrong. The only real instance is he used a slur once. Other than that, Peanut hasn't done anything bad. He's never been racist. He's never degraded a group of people or promoted serious discrimination. He's made jokes like 'look at this girl boss in Gears of War,' but that's just guys laughing about nonsense."
"You're starting to see a lot of the slower moving pieces of the culture moving away from accommodating certain activist groups. And I think they're lashing out a lot because of that. You're seeing less performative representation in media. Woke isn't dead because a lot of people refuse to actually want to push back on it. Nobody wants to go all out against these people, so they continue regrouping and becoming more extreme over time."
"Where is the proof of peanut being a racist? There's literally no proof of this. These people just make up a lie about you, then they repeat the lie to each other enough times and it becomes the truth. There's no evidence. No examples of him saying one group is inferior or shouldn't be here. This is why I never get upset when these people have bad things happen to them. They lie about everybody. They misrepresent everything. They hate him because he's a white guy that isn't woke. That's all."
"Here's what you have to keep in mind with everybody who is pretending like they're going to stop playing the game. None of these people stopped using Twitter when Elon Musk bought Twitter. So how is it that you're going to refund a video game that you play? A lot of these people play it on stream. If you're a Dead by Daylight streamer with 20 or 30 viewers and you swap to another game, you will probably lose almost all of your viewers. It will effectively kill your stream."
"A lot of these people can't even regulate their own behaviour for entertainment on social media. You don't need Twitter for your brand. No streamer needs Twitter. Nobody needs to post that they're going live or make social statements there. A lot of successful people don't do that. If these people can't manage to stop using Twitter even though they think the owner is a Nazi, how are you going to believe they're going to refund the game and stop playing something they've played for thousands of hours over some nonsense? They're not going to do that."
"Anybody who's on Twitter who says they're going to stop playing this game is lying, because if they really cared about ideology, they wouldn't be on Twitter."
Asmongold reacts to the Dead by Daylight developers folding under 0 pressure after promoting TheBurntPeanut
"So basically Dead by Daylight promoted TheBurntPeanut and gave him a bunch of skins and everything in the game. People got mad about it and Dead by Daylight was like, we can handle this. We don't care. It's not a big deal."
"What these people have done is collectively gotten together to chimp out over a peanut being accepted by the Dead by Daylight developers. Everybody is crying about this. It's another example of these people that get together and they collectively bully a developer by crashing out on social media for a couple of days, and they make a developer do something differently."
"So they folded under zero pressure. That's basically what happened. This is why I think that we need to be so aggressive against these people. If we're not aggressive against these people, these people will dominate the conversations and they will define the culture because they do jump out, they do crash out."
"Every single hostile, negative, psychotic comment that you guys make, as long as it's not encouraging violence, I'm pretty much in favour of. You guys need to come out and be a lot more outspoken about this, because unless you want to have every single community run by performative drag queens. What these people really care about is control and power. And they are bullies. And until they are made to stop, they will not stop."
"There is no world in which you can coexist with these people. You either have to take the culture back out of their hands that they are trying to define, or you should expect them to define every aspect of your life and culture and then tell you how you need to behave. These people are genuinely a malignant cancer into any community and any area that they touch. They get together and they bully a company like this, and then the company capitulates to them, and then it creates a feedback loop."

Well, I didn't expect him to be quite as audience-captured as the game itself.
Dead by Daylight has one of, if not the most toxic communities in gaming right now. You can barely get through a single match without encountering toxic gameplay, never mind the state of post-game lobbies.
You attack one of the biggest streamers and his friends for simply trying out your dying game. You harass and send death threats to a developer for doing something that is completely normal when a popular creator takes an interest in ANY game.
DBD has been in a terrible state for months and has been slowly declining. Yet, instead of letting these creators enjoy the experience and potentially bring in an entirely new audience (something the game desperately struggles with, by the way), you choose to attack and harass them over a slur that was partially slipped out FOUR YEARS AGO?
And then, when they issue what you consider to be a somewhat questionable apology, because the entire situation is frankly ridiculous, you all pile on even harder. Threatening to quit the game, doubling down on the toxicity and behaving like spoiled children throwing their toys out of the pram.
It's fucking pathetic.
It's no wonder the DBD community has become such a laughing stock when this is how people choose to behave. And honestly, seeing someone I thought had a bit more common sense agreeing with that statement tells me everything I need to know.
I don't even play the game anymore because the community has made it such an unbearable experience. However, I continued watching your content. Past tense, because I won't be giving you my time anymore when you're willing to justify this kind of behaviour.
L Otz. L DBD community.
Grow up, and humble yourselves.

Being a cop in America is fucking nuts, like 99.9 days out of 100 your job is just giving speeding tickets to White people and then one day a random prole-tard just charges you with a weapon going "GLEEBA GLOOBA BEEBA BOOBA" and you have to mag dump them like a COD Zombie.
