I forgot where I was going with this, but he gets a lot of views because he’s relatable. A lot of us are horrible losers who somehow have houses and money we don’t deserve. We’re like NEET Cinderellas and he’s our emaciated troll mascot.
That’s privilege, and usually at least a little money. There’s no indication of intelligence in this.
Succeeding at Capitalism is not an accomplishment. I did it, and like virtually everyone else, it was a combination of privileged circumstances and good fortune. Brilliance generally goes unrewarded, but if you buy SafeMoon at the right time or don’t wash your hands when you pee on live stream, you can make millions. There’s no indication of intelligence here.
I see primarily people of average intelligence doing these things.
I like how you borrowed my borrowed schtick. Did I expect you to do that? No? Do I mind? Also no. Am I secretly delighted by the chance to do it again because it amuses me? Yes. Let’s really drive it into the ground.
He’s far from stupid. He’s clearly of average intelligence. He is educated, and he doesn’t like to be ignorant so he studies things - but based on his gameplay videos, the speed at which he learns is average, and his problem-solving skills are pretty standard. His vocabulary does not stand out, and he frequently has to look up words and facts, which is fine, it just doesn’t mark him as the genius some would label him as. Zack’s an average guy in virtually every way, and that is the heart of his appeal. He’s just like most of his audience, but lucky, shameless, and wealthy.
Isn’t that the guy who posts like twelve vids a week that is something along the lines of “WOW IS DEAD. gone sexual MUST SEE. POLICE CALLED!” and the thumbnail has something like sylvanas doing a fortnite dance as the jailer goes >:(
cuz even if its not. how the literal frick do vids like that get views.
you’re right. its actually the jailer twerking as jaina makes the AMOGUS face.
and the vid is about how they buffed elemental shamans damage by 3% but you wouldnt know that because the video creator spends 20 mins talking about his latest mythic plus run where someone missed an interrupt and it reminded him of the last time he went to wal mart and someone took his preferred box of cheerios.
