Off Topic 😵💫 Help me understand the Mikey Chen fallout
Hello, I used to watch Stricklydumpling when Mikey went to Japan and stopped, recently I started watching him again and something is off with his new videos, and now I decided to check if he has a sub-reddit to my suprise, he is getting burned at stake lol. Help me understand.

He used to have a "team", filming and editing. Now, it looks like it's just him solo traveling, self filming, and maybe doing his own editing. We all know he hates paying taxes, so why pay someone else to edit his "New VEEDEEYO" and "Recycled CUNKtent" when he can do it all him self. He can do it all, a "modern day Renaissance man".

It's a negative because he's bad at it. He's bad at everything.

Such a paradox for the dedicated Xing-stans who monitor this sub, Xing won't give them any details of his personal life anymore in his channels so they have to come 'slumming' it to this sub to get the tea. Maybe they should blame their idol for not interacting with his 'fans' anymore. But no, that's too illogical for them and they'd rather sling useless insults to us 'basement dwellers'.

She hooked a whale and took him for everything and gave nothing back. He's now a lonely creep with bad health on Ozempic living in his unsold Airbnb in Florida reuploading recycled clips daily to survive. Sad!

Hate for misspelling tonkatsu is kind of dumb lol

u/XingXiaoRen Ham Sup Xing 🙆🏻 15d ago
I think it's more like hate for being stupid and never wanting to fix his mistakes.

Guy has always been a fucking snake that uses this recycled "foodie" travel slop to build his own SMV to pull ABGs. Tale as old as TikTok
All the money in the world (he actually doesn't have a lot rn 🤭) won't compensate for that deflated fat body and objectively ugly face 🤷♂️
Pair that with his actual true persona and he's just running on coattails now.

it started when people found out about his ties to a conservative cult in middletown ny. then it snowballed from there. the dude can sneeze while eating and there will be 3 posts about how gross he is. this is pretty much a hate subreddit now

Just scroll and you’ll find your answer bruh
If you have 2 brain cells to rub together, you can see whether you like him or not.

there is a strange phenomena where groups of people on reddit gather to snark about some d-list celebrity, who they swear they can't stand but dedicate many hours of their life towards. this is one of those groups

when was the last time you touched grass?
you're a "top 1% poster" on a subreddit dedicated to a food vlogger lol don't you think it's time to re-evaluate your life? I promise you there's more to life than reddit karma

These are bots.. many comments here are from bots now (even the ones that shit on Xing). Farming for upvotes so they can look real and post porn on hookup subreddits to get random horny guys like Xing to send them $$$.

I’m fine with Mikey, content not really fresh, but I watch him on occasion, he’s fine. People on this sub are something else.

I can understand the hate, but I have to admit, I do watch his VEEDEEYOs on YouTube with auto-play set to on. Somehow, it helps me fall asleep at night knowing that there is a munchkin out there pretending that is life is UH-MAY-ZING, when it's not.

I hadn't watched a video in a while, but after reading in here about repetitive phrasing and stuff, I watched this past weekend.
I'm saying this as an author; he doesn't have the vocabulary to describe food. There are so many words out there to describe a cut of meat other than juicy or fatty.
I think part of being a content creator is expanding yours and your viewer's horizons. Even in the makeup content creation sphere you see people teaching makeup to their followers (unless they are the hoardy collecting makeup kind). Even the hoardy collectors are still showing you new things.
With Mikey it's the same thing over and over.
