Yo why my Asian ppl being jerks? This and that one with the rental house. Cmon son.

It's likely just to get a reaction and make people laugh but by being aholes. "Oh shit hold your purse else that black guy gonna steal it lol amirite guys? It's just us girls having so much fun yet being careful!! Xoxo"

Is this what twitch is about these days?

A lot of it, yeah.

Don't get me wrong, there's some okay stuff on there. Caught a channel that does a nonstop stream of old Beavis and Butthead episodes complete with music videos, and there are a few quality game streams here and there, but it's just small bits of signal buried under a whole bunch of garbage noise like this.

The distressing part isn't that people watch this crap so much as the fact that they spend money on these fucking people.

I've never understood th
It's at the Big Brother/Real World stage.
Guess it's come full circle. Didn't it start as an offshoot of Justin TV or is that something I just made up?

Going go Google that now.

Also fuck these racists. It's always super disappointing to see minorities being racist to other minorities. Like them being Asian women I'm sure they have to deal with so much racist shit and fetishization. Why continue the trend?

Ah. Thousands of people watch streamers (male and female streamers) going about their day, walking around, going shopping, eating, cooking, every day. IRL/just chatting is one of the most popular sections on Twitch.
Why though? Their lives that boring that watching people doing boring shit is exciting?

Shit is just weird. Maybe I'm too fucking old. I don't know.

I think they might have mistook it for aggressive catcalling? Sounds like he might have been having a somewhat heated conversation on the phone and they just happen to walk by right as he's saying what sounds like "hey come over here"

You know laughing and goofing off would have been fine and what not but once they threw in the "hold your purse thing" they could kindly fuck off. That casual racism bullshit

This trend of people living their lives in the over reactive way to get viewers sucks. I am 100% old man yelling at clouds about this shit, I fucking hate it, shut it all down it was a mistake.

It's not Justin TV yet. JTV was amazing. I once watched a group stream of Silent Hill movie. Being able to talk about the movie with a group of strangers as stuff happened was fun as hell. It was the wild west back then.

Sure, the dude was in a heated conversation, but I doubt they would run away laughing if they thought there was any real danger.

So, uh... is this the first time they've ever walked around a US city? Because if they react like that to a brown man talking to someone, they're going to have a bad time.

He definitely didn't say that but his conversation was a bit heated and peppered with some vulgarity and/or words i won't say.

That said, I doubt those played into their reaction
