As long as he and his peeps stay away I don't care how much money he's making.

The losers are the people who enjoyed his video game content. I mean, if you hated the guy but wanted to watch Kinda Funny, this is a net positive whatever Colin money makes, it's the people who enjoyed PS I Love You/Colin was Right who are getting the worst end of the stick.
Posts like this are exactly why the Patreon success doesn't surprise me at all.At all of you begrudging the money Colin is set to make monthly​
Hahahaha. I could jump up and down I swear, all of you saying the wildest shit about this dude and tryna slander him and it didn't work. He bounced right back up.
Colin's exit strategy from KF was perfectly executed really. Got his crazy following frothing at the mouth ready to rally around him.

i just realize he's going to be doing The Dollop but with far less frequency, shorter, less funny,
and for far more money
not less racist unless he edits out the racism of history

I pray it's not a bunch of susceptible gamers giving him so much money.
We don't need more right wing brainwashing in today's gamers.

We take in deep comfort for the fact that GAF doesn't attract racist and misogynistic assholes.
Well it's not much surprise that he's getting a lot of money. It's become pretty clear that people are happy to pay to hear what they want. I'm curious to see what level of actual support he can sustain. Colin always seemed to be pretty sure he was the smartest guy in the room, but now he's going to have to produce. Even people who want to support him for "standing up to PC culture" or whatever shit are going to drop support pretty quick if he can't produce some actual interesting content.
I don't have much interest in the "historical perspective" of a Randian zealot so I don't think I'll be watching any of his new work. If "Colin Was Right" was the best example of the work he can produce, I don't think I'll be missing much.

I personally think it's crazy he'll be getting 20k a month, but good luck to him.
Hope to see and hear more of Tim now on KOF

Anyone who could jump and down out of delight at this is someone who wholeheartedly agrees with his politics.
Some of the people in this thread suggest otherwise.

I think you give those people too much credit.
They exist but the forum doesn't welcome them at all especially if they're being blatant and rude.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Fun to see a lot of juniors decide to make this thread their last stand.

Darn right I'm cheering for Colin. I've been a fan for 9 years and for him to leave KF under the circumstances he did was awful. You're not allowed to say ANYTHING nowadays. Colin always has been abrasive and flippant and it's rubbed ppl the wrong way for years. The joke was what broke the camel's back.
His name was slandered not just on GAF but on other sites like the IBTimes, Polygon, calling him out for stuff that wasn't true. I've been reading the PS I Love You XoXo thread that EdReedFan20 started and Gaffers have always bad mouthed Colin, even before the joke. Folks have always have had it out for him. Not a victim, it's the truth.
And I'm not getting any of that 20k but it's nice to see him bounce back, all the folks who wanted him gone and were after his livelihood, nope not happening.

"Don't hate the player, hate the game" is my takeaway from this.

Yeah, his punishment of making 20,000 dollars a month is really draconian.
You know it's never okay to push racist agendas and policies like Colin has done (See: BLM, Jeff Sessions) right?
Why? Because it is racist. It's not about being anti-PC or pro-PC or whatever. It's that he is peddling racist policies. Anyone who does that should get called out.

Well hey, good luck Colin! I hope you forge your own safe space from the evil SJWs.
Also try not to cry again. Grow some thick skin!

I'd suggest the evidence of this thread's existence to show you actually can say anything you want, and you'll be rewarded well for it if it's politically in touch.
This reminds me of Trump complaining during his campaign that the networks were censoring them. He was complaining about this while live on TV on the three cable news networks one after the other on the same night.
It's easy to hate the players. They're the ones selling out for a quick buck (Assuming they don't believe the heinous shit they spew).
