As the American representative who hasn’t watched the whole video yet. I am glad to welcome Thorin to our ranks. To commemorate this moment I’ll try some English tea for the first time ever!
Sportswashing is a good strat! It worked on me! Now whenever I think "saudi" my mind still goes to human rights abuses first, but in close second I think of sports and esports! 😂
I respect thorin as a person and as a journalist but some rants are just too much. He disects tweets that are obviously meant ironic and then points out contradictions on the other. I see his point and I also see the contradictions but I would prefer when he makes his point in a more calm way. I know he has the skills for that. I like rants on certain topics he does and not shitting on people making bad comments is not it. Especially the interviews he does is real TH-cam gold.
Been watching you for years now and this is the first time I’ve heard you name drop Jordan Peterson. I wonder if you’ve heard his conversation with Camille Paglia because it’s a bombshell. One of the first things that really changed my perspective on men and women, hearing a female scholar talk about that topic was very enlightening. Keep doing good work brother!
I commonly get lumped in with "Woke" movement so I take offense to all of this... JK I feel like you're falling into the same potholes that you are saying about woke people though. There are a lot of blanket statements that you say here and on your other shows that just don't fit woke people. I choose to overlook them because your content is great and I'm not here for your political or ideological views, just your hilarious and expert commentary on Esports. For example, your view of Donald Trump and mine differs dramatically but I have real experiences that were caused by decisions he made that impacted the life and livelihood of my community and you haven't been impacted by him at all because you have no skin in the game. Sure I'm not expecting you to deep dive on every anecdote, analogy, or metaphor you use because I genuinely believe you're a great dude who is a complex human being, but you do minimize conversations because of your beliefs and experiences whether you mean to or not. I think it also does a discredit to this conversation if we don't name that Cancel Culture was created by United States conservative media as a device to use against white men feeling belittled by new age feminism and preying on those insecurities in the early 2000s to now. What these people said is unacceptable and there is no way around that. I'm excited to tune in to more Thorin/LFN content in the new year.
I’m a woman and politically left. I think it’s just the way you come across 🤣 I disagree with your opinions like half the time, your attitude is annoying, but you make some good points & LFN produces a lot of league content which I’m grateful for. You just come across very defensive sometimes, and as though you won’t listen to rebuttals. Like you’ve come across as defensive in this video when you parody “ohhh we don’t know what gender they are but we can’t ask but we have to ask”. And when you make fun of them by doing a whiny voice. It just comes across childish and you take things a bit too literally. I just think you need to chill more 🤣 plus I think we saw a better side of you when you were doing the interviews with pros recently, like Caps. The more you do the whining & making fun of people, even tho it’s in jest, not everyone will know it’s in jest.
Respect for the people on this crusade against Thorin. Their lunacy makes for some great content.
Thorin: *exists*
SJWs on Twitter: And I took that personally

Make sure it has milk in it mate. The scars of seeing Americans drink English tea with no milk shall never heal.

Thorin fell into the classic trap of basing one's worldview on opposing those who are mean to you.
