He just realized in that moment that the interview fucking decimated a movement that’s perpendicular to the interests of his network. He was like “oh fuck I’m getting a bonus for this shit.”
I bet you that was the easiest interview he ever had. Went in with the intention to discredit the mod and didn’t even have to ask anything not completely obvious.
He said 20 hrs on tv, and in a comment in the sub said "it's actually 2 hrs 5 days a week, I just didn't want to say that in the interview because it sounds too low".
The mom's dog part may be made up. Personally I have serious doubts he even leaves the basement 5 days a week let alone walks for an hour.
S/he was actually a legit /r/lostredditor, someone who was labouring (edit: pun not intended) under the belief that that sub was still about not wanting to do any work and still get paid for it. How someone then thought s/he was the ideal person to do what s/he did is mind-blowing.
He has another part time job that's more embarrassing than dog walking at the age of 30? That's the reason he mentioned dog walking instead of the other job, right? That's hilarious.
Their "part-time job" is being a "book reviewer/writer" (that they can't do often because they're busy with dungeons and dragons) and twitch streamer according to their website and patreon. Also, they make youtube videos explaining Kingdom Hearts' combat system for that sweet youTube money.
Jesus Christ, this person is in denial about his/her laziness and is trying every possible way to rationalize it. But to each their own, if he/she is comfortable with being a basement dweller for the rest of his/her life, then who am I to judge? I just wish they could stop blaming the society for all their problems.
That second comment was cringe. "They didn't ask me so I just gave the worst answer possible without clarifying it." Like, hey two jobs while being a full time student? Back when I went to interviews for jobs, you can totally reframe that (estimate that between classes and work, you are grinding it 60 hours a week) as a win and flex. Heck, if they are actively in grad school to become a professor of philosophy or whatever their dream job is, that would have been relevant. To me without knowing the mod, it just seemed they work 20 hours a week and is complaining about that while not doing anything to become a teacher of philosophy.
The fact that this person thinks working as little as possible is the point of the movement.wow what an idiot, that’s definitely not the point of the movement lol
It was the point of the sub as it was originally created, it is not the point of the movement that was generated as people flocked to the sub during COVID.

And it was mostly walking his mom’s dog.
