I realy can't judge a person I don't know personally, but I sure is hell can judge their content. And for Asmonds videos and streams, there's just nothing there. There is literally zero content. You know those memes that imitate Joe Rogan, well here is one for Asmond.

"Yeah, Yeah"

"They way it is, is actually..." *blanket statement*

"Yeah, Uh Huh, No"

"Well actually..." *other blanket statement*

"What I would do is..." *some nonsense*

"Yeah, Yeah, Uh huh."

Continues to pause and unpause a 10 minute video over the course of an hour.

That's basically it, it's almost an anomaly how content like that can get somebody filthy rich. It ads zero value to the platform or any of the viewers lives. I can even excuse other creators doing their YLYL challange #547, because it at least involves humor and engagement. But if Asmond would disappear over night, I bet not only would nobody miss him, there wouldn't even be anybody to replace him, because his success is a straight up anomaly.

All these shitty reaction streamers are literally standing on the great shoulders of Filthy Frank, Jontron, early H3H3, early Idubbz, Cinemassacre, Ray William Johnson, etc. But those at least had weight behind their reactions, with bits and actual production behind every video. Those reaction streamers literally sit on their ass watch videos and somehow people pay them solely to hear their opinion, what a sad existence on both ends. To be frank, this is barely a step up of those YT shorts of a guy just staring into the camera while the top half of the screen shows some random video. I know YouTubes moto was "Broadcast Yourself" but some people really shouldn't take that to heart.
