It should be like indian marriages, the woman is immolated in the fire with the man when he dies. The simp is banned along with the woman he simped for, and she a permanent ban while he has a rehabilitative shorter ban. This would really work I think.

No, I think it's the opposite. Women should be banned on sight, but get a 10 day reprieve as a public service credit every time they get a simp banned.

He pigeonholed himself into the niche of being an angry dude who complains about lgbt and feminist agenda in videogames. So even if he did analyze the game properly, no one would've cared, because it's not the reason people come to his channel and listen to his thoughts.
Have you watched his review of the last silent hill remake which he also played? He knows these games pretty well. The woke parts are relativ short these days and he complains more about the bad gameplay.
I didn't say that he's incapable of analyzing videogames beyond just complaining about the leftist agenda, it's just that there isn't much incentive for him to do that since his audience expects him to rant about minorities.

Frankly, it's okay to have a niche like that. There's already more that enough of these gay long-form videogame essayists making videos like "SILENT HILL 10 HOURS LONG LORE ANALYSIS RETROSPECTIVE", and not enough people simply ranting about gayshit in videogames. New silent hill games don't even need deep analysis videos for someone to see what's bad about them.

Yep. It's actually kind of fitting really. He positioned himself to be the most based gaming youtuber ever by parroting /v/ talking points and is now angry that his fans only tune in to see him embarrass himself or talk about the ****. Now he just spends his days streaming and hating the very audience he cultivated. Also as Element pointed out he isn't very smart despite thinking otherwise. He's incapable of analyzing video games like American Krogan and providing insightful commentary. He's also too lazy to put in effort yet acts surprised that his channel is basically on life support with no new subs coming in. No wonder he's now going full lolcow just to get attention.

No surprise that on a platform so disgustingly sanitised, he managed to get a decently big fanbase for precisely for that reason. Truth to be told, I used to enjoy watching his earlier videos as well. But obviously, that kind of **** gets old real quick; just the same talking points but adapted to whatever new game he is playing. And worst of all, as @KnightoftheWind said, he just complains. I can't quite describe it, but his whole "chud" attitude; acting like he is some kind of "cool" loser, the social reject, the 'Le Based Man', someone who is just thriving off of being a 24/7 doomer, is kinda pathetic. Also the futa thing is ******* gross.

I get why he has chosen that particular "niche", and there is entertainment to be derived to some degree from that, but I would much rather watch someone who is smart, well-spoken, observant, and knowledgeable instead. Someone who offers something more than just ******** on things and being a "based" black-pill 4chan-tard, who possesses admirable qualities that his viewers would aspire to have. The younger generation needs less lolcows and chuds who provide shallow/low-quality entertainment, and more respectable right-leaning figures who enlighten and inspire.

Sidenote, I miss American Krogan :(

I don't think it's the nature of the content that is the issue, but the way it is presented. You mention American Krogan, and he was also doing something similar to Synthetic Man, but he always interspersed his critique of a game with interesting historical details, the kind you won't find anywhere else, along with accurate observations.

Synthetic Man has the right attitude, but lacks the necessary showmanship to keep his content feeling fresh.

Still, I'd rather have him continue his work, than have him quit.

I will make only one long form post about Synth since the discussion is here, and I wholly agree with you, but I find that many ignore Synth's rampant degeneracy and total lack of morals and belief when faced with his true self. The doomer hours, while sadly mostly lost to time, displayed a man utterly lost and delusional of his place within the world. A man who had no love for his own people and culture, if he ever felt connected to either in his life. He also possesses a complete ignorance of history and mostly echoes populist sentiments. (My favourite moment was when he declared the Roman Empire fell to the brown hordes, and when I corrected him that it was White barbarians who conquered Rome, he got mad at me.)

Now consider Synth is near or at(?) 30 years old, a time when a man must finish building his personality and adhere to a set of convictions to carry him into the rest of his days. The time of "growing up" is over, the harshness and reality of the world is set bare, and there demands a decision. Synth has not made that decision, and frankly, I don't know if he ever will comprehend this development of character. He certainly will never do so in this comfortable NEET bubble he has contained himself within, ranting about problems he has zero experience with.

This is not a role model, nor an inspiring figure, it is a broken man with only impotent rage left to carry him through life. I understand that rage, but it cannot define you. I can only hope Synth truly develops as a man and puts away all the ******** he tempts himself into and more importantly, stands with his own people. He can whine about these "parasocial" analysis of his character all he wishes, it won't hide the truth of what he has turned himself into.
The younger generation needs less lolcows and chuds who provide shallow/low-quality entertainment, and more respectable right-leaning figures who enlighten and inspire.
Absolutely. Synth may be entertaining and hits truthful notes once in a while, but he has crafted this grand deception that he is "far too honest". If one must eternally confess their honesty, you should be doubting their sincerity. End of the day, if you're going to proclaim political and social statements and speeches, you should be prepared to back these up with your own personal actions. You cannot preach anti-degeneracy if you jerk off to futa and even tell your father this on a public stream. Zero attempts to stop this behaviour, it's only gotten worse and more prominent. If Synth just stuck to games and never made much of a peep otherwise, I wouldn't be so critical of him, but he has refused to do this and proceeds to spew out dogshit opinions stream after stream while catering to an ever growing indian and ESL fanbase who loves loli and other fetish content. Is this the chudsphere younger White men desire? If so, we are in dire times indeed.

It's not strictly about Synth as to why I am so passionate on this subject, it's more what he represents. He is commonly regarded highly in the younger right leaning online sphere, while more educated and convicted creators are largely ignored because they aren't turning themselves into lolcows or online clowns. Entertainment isn't some baseless activity, it will shape your tastes, views, and opinions. It is precisely this reason that Blackrock, ****, and many others pushed so hard to turn it into an ideological platform. I realise I am preaching to the choir here, but it remains to be said.
