I think society kinda shifted though, which plays a part. I was having this conversation with the homie the other day..

the nerds are the cool kids now. think about it.. I assume most of us are in our early 30's (give or take). In our youth, the people who were outside were the cool kids. The hustlers, the high school jocks, the bullies.. nikkas like 50 Cent in 05 were who the kids looked up to..

these days, the cool kids are the streamers. the Kai Cenats and ishowspeeds. The Druski's, Duke Dennis' etc... these are the people with motion. That's who the kids watch and are influenced by. THESE ARE DORKS FR. These the mfs who grew up playing minecraft, and watching anime and wrestling. The tastemakers are now the dweebs who would have gotten made fun of 15-20 years ago. Tables turned. The bullys, the drug dealing hustlers.. they aren't cool anymore. we look at them like true losers. shyt got flipped at some point. wrestling is reaping the benefit

:russ:


its like the scene from 21 jump street when Channing Tatum is trying his cool guy tactics that used to work and it ends up just being loser shyt that nobody is rocking with anymore

Wrestling is basically nerd culture

Nerd culture is what’s popular now so it’s more accepted these days to talk about wrestling anime video games in public

I’ve seen numerous people wearing anime hoodies/shirts in public, anime decals on cars, streamers are basically the new celebrities

But that’s also a good & bad thing

Lol.... you're gonna say I'm "just tryin to argue" but I disagree with your take because those streamers still have Future, Drake, Kendrick if they could and ball players on their platforms and reason being is because those are the dudes who still get the looks from all the IG models.. Tyla and Chloe be on these platforms too and it's all a joke, fake flirting or the kids are the butt of the jokes, meanwhile these r&b women are dating all the street dudes IRL Meg can say she's "into anime" and all that but that ain't where she looks when it's time to date etc. women still dictate what's 'cool' in media

Women definitely dictating a lot right now which is insanity


I don’t think it’s either/or though. I think all of it is true. I think the streamers are insanely influential to the youth, and even though them dudes may present “cool” because of how they dress, talk and who they associate with… they’re actually dweebs by our old school definition (or at least our line of thinking when WE were growing up lol)


But I also don’t think that takes anything away from what you’re saying. These things are never monolith. I do think the dweebs having influence in tastemaking does play a role in societies acceptance of shyt that was once taboo to enjoy in public though lol

the younger generation of boys (20 and under) are fukking hopeless because that's the prime demographic for fans of people like Andrew Tate and Fresh & Fit and all those other women hating podcasters and personalities. They are more interested in trolling and being nihilistic than they are pulling bytches bc most of them off rip know they couldn't pull anything if they tried so they just lean into it. Trump was getting a lot of love from the under 25 male demo :francis:

Moxley you stooge. You wouldn't know because you don't realize that badasses like Mox don't feel the need to carry around a physical championship. It also gets in the way when you're trying to commit a literal murder on Collision by pouring bleach down your co-workers throat, but that's neither here nor there..
