Current Events > Why did Jim Sterling fall off so hard?

(+) Yeah! (+)

A lot of people simply stopped watching when she came out as trans, that's sad reality. Happened with PhilosophyTube too

Chased the algorithm too hard. All the fun videos went away in exchange for a near constant stream of videos about how bad the industry is. It got stale fast, and you can only hear so many versions of the same content before it just stops being worth checking in.

I would argue the world is getting worse by a small % day after day given climate change & we're just waiting for the end, but that's just my pessimistic view on things.

So you insult me for supposedly missing your point, go on a rant about how wrong I am because I didn't hit the goalposts in the area you moved them to (nothing I said in any way indicated someone couldn't cover negative topics in their videos, YOU justified Sterling supposedly only making negative videos then blamed me for responding to how you represented them instead of binging all their content ), then confirm that my interpretation of your message was exactly how you felt about things. I'm so fucking tired of pessimism and despair being treated as a cute personality quirk, they are a life ruining mental illness for me.

Peak Sterling was the Fuck Konami news era.

Karl is the "law and order SVU" to SS's "forensic files." Karl is too into the drama whereas SS is all about analysis. It's like comparing TMZ to Wikipedia.

Outside of Billy and Jirard what drama is Karl apart of?

Philosophy Tubes whole vibe changed when she came out. I used to be a big fan, and Im certainly not anti-trans in any way, and even I dont watch her videos anymore.

Bullshit.

A chunk of his audience that wanted to hear him bitch about games industry stuff were also transphobes and bigots in general, and when he came out as non-binary and started presenting as a woman they fled the channel.

End of fucking story... lol

I mean in Karl Jobst's defense, Billy is actively trying to ruin his life with bogus lawsuits

So it's a lot more understandable. If Karl didn't have a successful Pateron, his life would have been destroyed. Lawsuits are expensive.

Karl also has cancer, so I can't really blame him for putting out what he can.

What's wild is that I only got into PhilosphyTube within the last few months. Didn't even know she was trans until like halfway through the first video I watched when she said it.

I didn't know I was supposed to stay aware of some other stranger on the internet's personal mental health condition lest I say something that legitimately triggers them because of something I was unaware of? That's such a weird thing to foist onto someone else. If you're not in a good space, don't respond or engage with something, it's not my responsibility to stay up to date on how someone else might be when I don't know them.

As for the rest of it, yes, all their videos are not just negative doom parades of content. Anyone that says that's the case is lying, there's plenty of self awareness about the content & more lighthearted material that does exist. If you're complaining about me "insulting" you, you wouldn't have ass pulled a large quote about a straw man you made in your head as your first response to me mate.

I'm not going to have a trauma dump to you in response to prove why I have an outlook that you think is just a jest or 'personality quirk' because you have your own issues you're dealing with. I do wish you luck on fixing your situation, but it's so fucking weird to just think my situation isn't comparable to yours when there was never a competition for it

Does Sterling still go on about their wrestling career? That was a bit of a turn off for me.

They used to have thumbnails that looked like nazi propaganda for one

Are you talking about the red and black militant look? That was part of their edgelord persona that they retired relatively quickly. It was meant to invoke fascist imagery, not Nazi specifically.
