Tyler “Ninja” Blevins, still the most famous crossover sensation in the world years after the peak of its relevance, He seems to be getting a little tired of every action being hyper-scrutinized by millions of people all the time.
In a new profile of He New York News which, of course, opened with the necessary reference to an otherwise irrelevant video game that the author played during his youth (Goldeneneye, in this case), Blevins spoke on a wide range of topics. These were unified by a single line of traffic – he’s tired of a whole lot of shit that viewers say about him and about him.
Here, for example, is Blevins when he returns to Twitch after the Microsoft money machine briefly attracted him missing transmission platform Mixer:
“When we came back from Mixer, I knew I would no longer be the biggest streamer in terms of spectators. You’re not the number 1 streamer, go, come back and be the number 1 again. I get people to come to my chat and say, “You’re falling. LOL. Good mix, man. The mixer moves. era smart. I don’t regret anything I’ve done. I could teach all these kids to talk [expletive], but when you answer them, they say to me, “He said my name!” Her name is 69fartsniffer, and you read her name, and the next comment after they roasted you is that they laugh like a little schoolgirl. Like “Did you notice me?” It’s the worst. “
Here he talks about young viewers and, uh, a kind of contradiction with his own previous stance turned on heated player moments:
“Do you want to know who your child is? Listen to him when he plays video games when he thinks you’re not. Here’s another thing: How can a white child know he has a white privilege if his parents never teach him or don’t they talk about racism? If they play and their first interaction with racism is one of their friends who says the word N and they have no idea what it is, what if it was my current? It’s my job to keep that conversation with this boy? No, because the first thing that goes through my head is, “This guy does it on purpose to make me a troll.” If someone says a racial insurrection to someone else’s flow, that streamer might be banned. It’s horrible, but that’s the first thing I think. “
G / O Media may receive a commission
And he sounds very fed up with hearing his own stance on not transmitting with women“A bad dam.” He came back to a certain point in later years, but not entirely.
“The accusations have made me say this about women players. I said I’ll do anything in my power to make sure no one can even start a rumor or make YouTube clickbait videos: ‘Lately, Ninja is playing a lot with this person. They are flirting. Here is a clip. ‘Do you know how to make this never happen? Don’t miss it! This is what was going through my head. I’m still on the side of not spending much time alone with a woman, in general, if you’re a married man. I mean they could be your best friend, it’s totally great. But if I randomly start playing with a woman no one knows, people will start talking. So if I I am I’m going to play with women players, I do it with a big group, so it’s not about individual interaction. ”
Extremely not at all.
“Of course, a boy and a girl can be friends without getting intimate. But it’s like, temptation, man. I don’t really like that word, because I have control over myself and 100% respect for my relationship, but I don’t know how to write it. I know people will potentially take it now like, “Oh, you can’t trust yourself, blah, blah, blah. “Dude, no. But when you’re no longer ‘Joe,’ who can have a drink with his co-worker and no one gives him a [expletive]”I don’t have that luxury.” ”
Perhaps one day Blevins will put his stances into his passivity when it comes to convening young viewers about racism and the active role he plays in spreading retrograde views on women. Today it doesn’t seem to be that day.
In happier news, Blevins, a self-described “idea man,” has surely had some ideas. Inspired by his days as a professional player who had to drive more than 8 hours at a time, he has devised a new product.
“What happens on a long journey? You get cold and it’s like: I’m freezing! I’m tired! “He said.” Well, you increase the heat and you get too hot. Now you’re hot or asleep, but you don’t want the window to go down either, because what if it’s freezing or what if it’s very strong? with that window down? So it’s right here: little cold strips that are put under your eyes so you can have the windows up and the heat. That would be good for truck drivers. Man: cold strips. “
