He's interacted with her for a few days, and he's already fucking dying.
E: She's in!
E: She's in!
e. she can't go a day without mentioning him
I know it's a bit late, and idk if it's gay to post this here or not but whatever. Some stuff to think about regarding the rich men north of richmond oliver anthony guy from a comedian who is infamous for breaking mind-spells, Owen Benjamin:

Some much more fleshed out analysis in his stream here:
Some pre-discussion but he starts off focusing on it at ~34 minutes in.
It's kind of funny because when i first heard the song, it immediately made me think about this one which was pushed for a little while as an "american nationalist" anthem, "We Will Have Our Home Again" by The Pine Tree Riots:
The reason it reminded me of it is because it is fundamentally a song that is complaining about how bad things are, almost wallowing in it. It's the same with that movie "Falling Down", which is entirely a mockery of people who are despairing at how bad things are getting, and shoving it in their face that "yeah your america is gone. it's going to get worse too. what are you going to do about it? Go vigilante and get killed for your efforts, and your daughter won't even be told? lololol"
It's the same spell. Owen's take is similar it seems, he says it is a "slave song" designed to help people accept bad things.
In his analysis, Owen's take is that this guy oliver anthony is constructed based on market analysis. People want authenticity these days. So they create a character who is meant to be "authentic", to appeal to that demographic.
(Slight sidebar, Pippa's audience is perfect for this as well. Authenticity is one of the traits that I have heard many people say makes her appealing to them.)
This character can't be actually authentic though, it has to be a mimicry, it has to be fake, because it has to propel the right messages - in this case, part of that is apparently "diversity is our strength". Pippa was wrong in her comments saying that it was just a phrase people latched onto because it triggered them or whatever. He elaborates in his interview which she showed on stream that he genuinely meant it.
Owen's argument is that an authentic man coming from the position of the character Oliver Anthony presents in his song could not believe and promote diversity as a core value, because it is the cause of most of the things he is complaining about in his lyrics.
Pippa says "well he just has different politics than you, he isn't a racist like you are".
The only logical way in which that is true is if the man is an idiot.
Naturally we may conclude that Pippa believes this man is an idiot.
Which, you know, maybe there's something to that theory. He says in the fox interview on the video that he wants people to come together and stop being mean about our differences, and he wants to put out something positive to make people's lives better because of all the bad stuff thats put out in the media.
So he writes a song that's literally all about how terrible everything is, and specifically mocks obese people living on welfare in it. He sings about "selling his soul" for money, which is pretty desperate sounding, and then claims to have turned down an $8 million music deal.
Season 3? We aren't even at the end of season 1.Looking forward to season 3 of Jong Connect as our brave heroine starts another training arc in order to slay the Australian.
Anyone got the context?I don't know any of the context behind this other than it was in Kirsches chat after the Rezuul stream.

Yeah and that issue can be easily solved by Pippa not letting him keep joining when she streams mahjong. Obviously she has no control during the tournament, but in future Jong streams it's just kind of shitty to keep letting the same people play the streamer, it's not just him. I think he's just average annoying for Male-Vtuber and Australian TBH.I have not watched a single second of Rezuuul's streams (aside from when Pippa streamsniped him for a minute a few days ago, which I did find pretty funny), but I have been thoroughly entertained by the screencaps of Pippa's salt in his chat and him rubbing it in on Twitter, which honestly kinda makes me like him on a surface level. I just wish he wasn't Australian because the timezone gap is probably really fucking with her. Other than that, I've got no real opinion and I don't really care to get one unless the complaints about/criticism of him go beyond 'he streamsnipes my oshi and takes my potential mahjong slot'.
From what I remember she was trying to get Kirsche to make fun of him and didn't want her to say thanks to him for the raid after he beat her in mahjong.Anyone got the context?
