This won’t shut him up. He’ll be back doing stupid shit as long as enough people watch him do it.
Six months hard labor in a country where, when his warrant was put out, more or less engaged in a nation wide manhunt to get the fucker who gave a lap dance to a statue of a child that was constructed to remember the systematic rapes the imperial japanese military commit.
I sincerely doubt he has the kind of mental or physical fortitude required to come out of that unchanged. Do I think he will be a better person for it? No. This is punitive, not rehabilitative. But I sincerely doubt he will fuck around to anywhere near this degree ever again.
Probably shift more towards trying to pull an ishowspeed and talk about how he has changed and is nothing like he used to be and blah blah blah give him money.
Can we get a live stream of him doing hard labor? That would be amazing!
That would get clicks and drive some real revenue for sure 😁
Donated sexual abuse and human trafficking victims
That seems extreme.
oof
damn it man
This is a person who fairly regularly gets punched out on stream. I genuinely think he doesn’t have the mental capacity to change from this 6 month sentence, possibly even before he started getting punched out.
He’s the kind of asshole that will come out of it saying something stupid like, “It was nothing! I ran the place!” He’ll just roll it into his career, move on to another platform, and continue to be a big piece of shit.
US Congress, or bust! 😶🤢🤦🏼♂️
I am surprised it’s only 6 months.
He is a us citizen at a time when the us is aggressively fucking over all its allies. His streamer name being “Somali” makes him an unlikely flashpoint, but 6 months means he can be ammunition for the 2026 elections without anyone actually feeling the need to do anything because he’ll be out around the time votes are being tallied.
So Korea gets to make an example without being made an example.
