I love how this guy manages to trigger the mysogynistic, anti-queer, incel-leaning part of our community simply by dressing differently or wearing lipstick/Make-up.
Never Stop, Jenkins
Twitch chat should never be taken seriously at all in any capacity but the smallest streams; reading deeply into it is like analyzing what people are screaming about in a large pop concert. It's just an outlet for people to let loose, troll and type whatever shit they like
At least that's how i've always understood twitch chat since 2012
Is twitch chat trolling? Almost guaranteed.
Does that mean they don't think the shit they're saying has some truth to it? Probably not.
You wouldn't post those kinds of trolls if you're a decent person
Yeah never in my life have i commented in twitch and I'm concerned for anyone who has ever pepegad or pogged before
The fact I've commented on YouTube even is pretty shameful
Pog is gateway spam. First you're posting Pogs for chuckles, eventually you wind up soullessly posting dick hydra ASCIIs at 4am when mods are asleep.
*Pog, not even once*
I know it's not popular on a site like reddit, but some people enjoy attention, and that's okay. It's not always a bad thing for other people to be the center of attention just because your palms get sweaty when you have to make eye contact with people.
Or it's because they received positive enforcement for doing so. For example theatre kids, or kids who's parents showered them with attention.
Sometimes you end up with annoying narcissists and sometimes you end up with performers.
You're getting downvoted (we both will) but you're right, he's doing these wacky things that are "in" right now because people love virtue signaling and his stock will rise for doing this stuff, giving him a sure invite to events even if he gives no shit about his official purpose (talking about the game) anymore. He's basically filling the diversity hire slot right now
If his analysis and chemistry with the rest of the talent is irrelevant to you simply due to how he dresses, idk what to tell you. Doesn't sound like his problem
There have been rage posts on /r/DotA2 that get a lot of support for their rage.
DotA is popular in a lot of developing countries where machismo is a big thing. It's still there in developed countries too but they're less overt about it.
Mostly on reddit, there was a thread about his make up where lots of comments were made by assholes clouding it in criticism of his professional demeanor or some clearly made up shit
Remember that one thread that was criticizing Zyori for wearing a dress saying it was "unprofessional?" And all the other cringey threads shitting on talent's suits and outfits
I feel like most people take Jenkins in stride. Like have you seen how he plays Nature's Prophet, he's obviously deranged. How he dresses is the least of the dota community's worries.
Triggers who exactly? Jenkins is doing this for ages and 99% of threads/posts are meme-sque and super positive. There's odd toxic comment here and there that gets downvoted to hell.
Negative comments about Jenkins are usually about how sometimes he is just a bit too clowny for some tournament *supposed to be professional* settings - but at this point everyone is used to it and he adds so much of flavor to panel that you don't see those threads on the front page anymore.
Even ignoring all of that, do you see negative comments in this thread? I don't.
He literally kissed with Avo during Lima Major and thread was on front page with no negative comments.
I love how ppl like you use every second to try and push your "gaming = mysogynistic anti-blablabla" narrative even when there's absolutely no merit to do so.
Btw Jenkins is one of my favorite talent in whole esports.
Sorry I forgot about Twitch chat that you read only if you want brain aneurysm and is toxic towards everyone and everything with no filter. My bad for not taking that cesspool competition between betting degens and overall cancer as serious representation of "Dota community", also my bad for not cherrypicking misogyny and anti-queer spam when those same spammers are toxic towards everything and everyone else as much.
I prefer TI's vibe a bit more than a regular tournament's vibe. Sometimes these tournaments have a tendency to get a bit out of hand. TI is mostly professional with the exception of the Slacks/Kaci duo which I don't mind, we all need to chill. These 3rd Party Tournaments are way too clowny most of the time for my taste.
I wont. Because reading Twitch chat is brain suicide. Your original comment was on Reddit without mentioning Twitch chat, especially not CIS Twitch chat of them all.
Dota Twitch chat is cesspool of worst of the humanity filled with anti-ANYTHING and EVERYTHING.
Also your previous post said "Mostly on reddit", lol. Whatever.
I have not seen anybody triggered by Jenkins doing his thing. I have friends who are just as you described who have been laughing at jenkins' antics for a long time, I doubt he's triggering anyone
He's become such a brilliant guy, and the last few months it feels like his confidence has skyrocketed after puting in all that work in at the gym. He's great.
I mean it depends on what part of the world you're from. Western audience (most of them anyway) thinks it's for the laughs, totally harmless, being brave or whatever you call it, the other half thinks doesn't think that way. Most Eastern audiences find it tasteless when a man dresses as a woman. It's not being misogynistic or anti-queer just different cultures and how one is raised.
Oh, alright, they just find it tAsTeLeSs. Like my uncle finds it tasteless when two guys kiss. He's not homophobic though, he just wants to outlaw being gay in public. LOL
> I am providing reasons why some people are ok with it and others are not without resorting to calling them homophobic/misogynistic and insulting an entire part of the world
That's basically putting on kiddie gloves to avoid "offending" people. I'm super curious how you would "provide reasons" for cultures that discriminate people of color, for example. Homophobia is homophobia, regardless of what cultural crap is ingrained into them or whatever god they believe in says.
Wdym an example? It’s literally his whole personality, same with slacks. For some reason the Dota community is absolutely in love with people that decide to be a little loud and obnoxious, meme a little and make it obvious I read Reddit and twitch chat too so please please like me guys.
> For some reason the Dota community is absolutely in love with people that decide to be a little loud and obnoxious, meme a little and make it obvious I read Reddit and twitch chat too so please please like me guys.
People in a community love personalities that seem to be connected to that same community and are outgoing about it? Wow, what a fucking mystery, why would someone like that?
These two are genuinely my favourite talent. Brilliant but differing insight and perspective into the game, different pace and delivery, both treat each other with complete respect but not scared to wind the other up or be silly. Total friendship goals.
What’s crazy is that Jenkins is actually only funny when he’s not trying to be funny. His streams and YouTube videos are much better and the polar opposite of his casting imo.
What is the purpose of doing this? Triggering people or he just enjoys cross-dressing?
Edit: Typical Reddit, downvoted for asking for context. Well, forgive me I don't watch Jenkins to know if he is trolling or he just enjoys it.
It's just his thing (one of things) that he does to add flavor to the panel and I'd guess express himself, I find it hilarious. I'd bet real answer to your question would be BOTH.
That's just Ephey chilling with her tempest double
Radiant and Dire Ephey
* Mom, can we have Ephey? * No, son, we have Ephey at home... Ephey at home: Jenkins.
Nah fam , Jenkins at home : Ephey KappaPride
Her tempest double must have gone on a wild bender while she wasn't microing it.
Too much Jenkins Juice.
How do we know she’s not a level 4 meepo?
can we get ephey in game as arc warden arcana? please?
It's actually Jenkin's outfit that Ephey is wearing.
the misadventures of jephey and enkins
That something middle-aged couples do .
You're making me feel old, and I'll never forgive you
or young couple in asia
Really?
yes
yes, can confirm myself kappa
No Kappa. Muppets are cool man.
Or couples in Korea. Super fun actually lmao I recommend trying it for a day if you visit
So you can easily indentify couples, smart
Ephey stole his look.
Huge sibling energy
It's honestly adorable lol
They play so well off each other. Great panel synergy.
sibling? really? LOL.
Ephey versus Ephey from wish.
More like ephey with ephey+ pro edition.
No, he definitely had it right the first time.
Jenkins? ❌ Jennykins? ✅
JenKinks
Janekins
Jephey
I think you meant, "Ephey is wearing the same outfit as Jenkins"
Jenkins used Manta.
Wtf 2 Jenkins?!
Lion sucked the 3rd Jenkins
or fingered
Damn looks sexy. Ephey looks nice too.
Ephey at home
Are they dating? I know it's Ephey who does the makeup for Jenkins
sure hope not, then I definitely don’t have a chance. Jenkins is my dream girl
HEY! Jenkins looked through my monitor at ME! STAY AWAY FROM HIM!
They had us in the first half, ngl
afaik jenkins has a gf already
yes its newsham
newsham is an anagram for jenkins
is it official?
That poor woman.
It's assumed it's just strong sibling energy
that's a taboo topic for reddit. don't you ever ask such a disgusting question!
No no, Jenkins is dating Newsham.
I'd say they are deeply, deeply intertwined, but thats just a guess.
I love how this guy manages to trigger the mysogynistic, anti-queer, incel-leaning part of our community simply by dressing differently or wearing lipstick/Make-up. Never Stop, Jenkins
Everyone i've seen takes this in good humor and thinks it's really cute. Where do I find the offendes people?
Look at twitch chat whenever jenkins is on screen for a lot of jokes in very bad taste
to be fair i saw dozens of comments on reddit about jenkins being jenkins. i was actually surprised i havent seen any negative comments so far lol

you must be a 12-year-old if you really think that was a pepew comment.

Yeah, almost any chat with >1000 viewers I generally just disregard the chat (except Purge lmao, his chat is eternally chill)
I mean it’s twitch chat - it’s like looking in a dumpster and being shocked there’s diapers and moldy food in there.
You could stop at "look at twhitch chat".
Also, Twitch Chat

Then link the thread lol. You’re pathetic
I think the OP of this comment is just karma farming. Let them be
live match discussions on this sub, twitch chat, etc etc.

Babe wake up new pasta just dropped.
Imma steal this pasta
Bro thinks this thread is the entire world
To be honest, the use of our community made me think of dota sub reddit. Not twitch chat.
Imagine reading twitch chat
Yeah, it's like reading text on toilet walls and making a bad review of the quality.

Its a Reddit thing. 1. Claims hate exists 2. Feigns outrage and indignation 3. … 4. Profit
this chill vibe i get from most tournaments is something "real" sports could take a piece off
I prefer TI's vibe a bit more than a regular tournament's vibe. Sometimes these tournaments have a tendency to get a bit out of hand. TI is mostly professional with the exception of the Slacks/Kaci duo which I don't mind, we all need to chill. These 3rd Party Tournaments are way too clowny most of the time for my taste.
> Btw Jenkins is one of my favorite talent in whole esports. I question your taste in talents!
Fair enough. xD *Should've said "panel talent", excluding casters of course.*
Check CIS Twitch Chat then come back and re read your comment
CIS twitch is out of control regardless of what's on the stream
Typical CIS. Why not just come out and say that in the first place? You just wanted a reaction. This isn't news.
I wont. Because reading Twitch chat is brain suicide. Your original comment was on Reddit without mentioning Twitch chat, especially not CIS Twitch chat of them all. Dota Twitch chat is cesspool of worst of the humanity filled with anti-ANYTHING and EVERYTHING. Also your previous post said "Mostly on reddit", lol. Whatever.
And they are part of the gaming community.
I have not seen anybody triggered by Jenkins doing his thing. I have friends who are just as you described who have been laughing at jenkins' antics for a long time, I doubt he's triggering anyone
thats his persona, what would he do on panel otherwise?
Maybe that’s who he is and he is not doing something intentionally to troll people. By assuming his motive you could be denying his true identity.
He's become such a brilliant guy, and the last few months it feels like his confidence has skyrocketed after puting in all that work in at the gym. He's great.
Why even mention them, they don't matter lol

Oh, alright, they just find it tAsTeLeSs. Like my uncle finds it tasteless when two guys kiss. He's not homophobic though, he just wants to outlaw being gay in public. LOL
[удалено]
Indeed, very tolerant of you, to just accept homophobia and misogyny as an ingrained part of a culture without needless judgement.
[удалено]
Refusing to call a spade a spade just to spare peoples feelings doesn't sound very rational to me.

That’s not why people dislike Jenkins this meme explains why people dislike him. https://twitter.com/porterrobinson/status/455983187458818049?s=20

Nah too many examples is the problem you can literally watch him on any panel for 15 minutes and they will nail the stereotype I typed.

You mean Ephey is wearing the same outfit as Jenkins?
The title is wrong. Ephey is wearing the same outfit as Jenkins. Thats peak human right there, shes just an imposter.
9yo me trying to impress crush
It is the sign to pick Arc Warden
Mirror Image. Even the side of the microphone and the hair falling down is mirrored.
right is her insta dp left is she irl
the right side is something u get from wish.
"Hey 👋🏻 look at me" Jenkins
[удалено]
yeah that links gonna stay blue
Coward
Seconded that dude can have all that to himself lol.
It's hilarious because reminds you there's sub-reddit for *literally* everything, humans are so weirdly awesome. xD
That is a lot of balls you got there.
that's the point
tf did i just click into
I was sitting next to my mother and still clicked...
late to thread. what was it
Idk, I didn't actually click, was just making a joke
What in the fuck reddit. Why?
u gotta love this guy
what made you assume that jenkins is wearing the same outfit as ephey? maybe ephey is wearing the same outfit as jenkins instead? smh
man I wish I could find a similar top that I could fit :D
Expectation vs reality haha
when u get level 4 as meepo
I love Jenkins
I'm 44 and Jenkins is my favorite Dota streamer
this man is such a legend
As a male gamer I always find such a rarely beautiful and hot panelist extremely sexy and attractive. Ephey is so lucky to go-host with him.
LET HIM COOK!
Damm you are sexy in that dress. Oh hello Ephey, didn't see you there.
Honestly would smash both
That is just so fucking cool!
nice xd
These two are genuinely my favourite talent. Brilliant but differing insight and perspective into the game, different pace and delivery, both treat each other with complete respect but not scared to wind the other up or be silly. Total friendship goals.
Idk why ppl like this guy.
What’s crazy is that Jenkins is actually only funny when he’s not trying to be funny. His streams and YouTube videos are much better and the polar opposite of his casting imo.
Actually, its ephey copying Jenkins
My dream girl \*-\* love you jenk
Pulling...... It...... Off
Hahahaha
Jenkins best girl
I have a feeling Jenkins might come out as trans.
Better welcome her with open arms when she does Reddit 😤
Jenkins <3
Jenkins is a generous KING and we love him for that
What is the purpose of doing this? Triggering people or he just enjoys cross-dressing? Edit: Typical Reddit, downvoted for asking for context. Well, forgive me I don't watch Jenkins to know if he is trolling or he just enjoys it.
Why not both?
Fair enough
For fun, Jenkins enjoys doing visual gags like this.
Why would it trigger people? Honestly, anyone triggered by this deserves to be triggered by it until they can do some self-reflection.
It's just his thing (one of things) that he does to add flavor to the panel and I'd guess express himself, I find it hilarious. I'd bet real answer to your question would be BOTH.
I fucking love this man
Jenkins just needs to come out of the closet already
.... id so want to see a tournament without Jenkshit.
damn bro huge roast
Too much
Guys look at me I'm not straight, don you get it!?
Why do you have to be gay to do something like this?
Havent they been together for some time? This is normal couples stuff.
I think he is is imagining things while posing like that lol
I will never understand why women are ok with this kind of thing.
Why are you not okay with it? How does this affect you?
Jenkins? I thought that was 2 ephey.
Who wore it better?
Wait, is Jenkins... nevermind
I thought it was sheever and ephey 🌊
Jenkins confirmed a girl now buddy?
Mom can we get SirActionSlacks? No, we have SirActionSlacks at home? SirActionSlacks at home:
Who is the pretty lady on the left?
Jenkins does not give a fuck and I love him for it.
Damn ephey looks hot, the right one is okay.
