I'm actually listening to the Final Fantasy lecture as I sporadically catch up on this thread and it really does make the heart heavy to know this group psycho autists have scattered to the winds and at least a third of them have have trooned out in the wake of it all.
Nate was also the most normal looking of the PCP if we are being honest
Oh yeah, the dude actually took care of himself. He's probably the only guy who got out of bed, took a shower and got dressed for the lecture videos. Dunno if all that could be attributed to the fact that he had a job in programming at the time but it's telling that working in a professional capacity has kept him from drinking the NEET troonaid to this day.
How is this Nate faggot any better than Digi? I listened to that interview and it's the same self-involved nonsense, opinions you could hear from /a/ or Reddit any time, and pedophilia defense you'd expect from Digi. Apparently the weebsphere has fallen so much that simply not being a tranny is enough to look based.
It's funny how this aligns a lot with my theory that the reason we're seeing so much anti-pedo stuff now is just pure virtue signaling by people who are actually into that stuff. You see it time and time again but digibro here is really the funniest example of trying to be anti-loli now. People should be anti-loli but the fact that the anime culture is SO anti-anything that can be considered "pedophilia" just looks like it's way too try hard. "nah bro i'm totally not a pedo bro, you're the actual pedo you find this adult looking 17 year old from a video game hot! TWITTER, DO YOUR THANG!"
You're missing the point. Digi IS special for doing that, why? Because he actually did it. You can say how anyone could have done what he did but the fact is, at least for anime analysis, who was? He was there, he actually did it, he had a decent talking voice and decent editing. His competitors were extremely low brow people like mothers basement or gigguk who made very safe content that appealed to the lowest common denominator. Not to make it sound like digi's videos were high IQ but like others said he was willing to call out absolute garbage for what it was even if it was popular which would be pure blasphemy for his competitors who wouldn't want to piss off their audience of retards. Digi deserves some credit for being one of the few people online making content that tried to properly critic anime and even brought lesser known anime to peoples attention back when anitube was practically still in it's infancy. It's easy to sit on the sidelines and go "pfft yeah well I could've done that!" but the fact is you didn't and you won't. That being said, digi obviously inflates his ego way too much over this stuff even back then with how much he was obsessed over calling himself a "gonzo journalist".
Unlike others who might have some skeletons in the closet from years ago on old private DMs. Digi was very very much open about his attraction to Loli. Even before Loli became known outside of the weeb/anime sphere, he was known for the Loli shit. As mentioned before he is backtracking because, in a small chance he will revive his channel, he doesn't want his Loli shit to come up, but seeing how trans people are with that type of stuff, I doubt he stopped.
1. He lifts.
The short answer is that Digi never wanted to grow up. Digi has spent his entire life avoiding work, and asking people to lift him out of his problems. The only reason he made it as far as he did, was because he had a brilliant passion for anime and wasn't afraid to shine a light on sleezy otaku culture. While relating it to Melinnial and Zoomer anxieties.
Digi is afraid of success because it would mean having to be responsible for something and meet people's expectations. Lots of lolcows have this trait; Contrapoints refuses to work with a film crew and insists on doing everything independently to avoid any form of accountability. Digi was happier than ever during the hobo saga because it was zero responsibility. He won't kill himself when his inheritence runs out; he'll just live in his little bubble happy that he doesn't have to do anything but be a big useless lump.
If you want to consider YouTube a job, which in today's age it is, he had one, and had a very privileged position seeing the types of content and income he made back before Covid. Bird and the crew have done nothing since. Bird is married to Digi I guess, haven't heard anything from Riley, and I know Mint does OF now (check her Twitter) but that's about it. They just used him for his money and dipped once that dried up. I want to say I can understand the position of him not knowing what to do, if I had a lighting-in-a-bottle moment and then fucked it up, I wouldn't know how to rebuild, especially with how he fucked himself over the past 5 years
The Jonah Complex, that and I think lack of accountability on their end, and maybe autism.
Digi has the mierdas touch.
The furries'll take him!
"I don't know why"
Alot of his later videos before he became a trannie were good and talked about topics within Anime I thought were interesting. The Anime within Anime video and History of Akihabara video are pretty good and standout to me.
