Asmongold is the subject of the criticism this time. In "My Response.", he reads a post blaming his stream for harassment directed at women in esports, then turns to the controversy surrounding Perkz's departure from G2 Esports and broadcaster Sjokz's reaction.

Posted by Asmongold Clips, the official channel for excerpts from his streams, the video drew about 1.8 million views since yesterday. It combines his commentary with social posts, a G2 statement announcing the termination of its collaboration with Perkz, and clips of Sjokz speaking about women's rights and her own security concerns.

Asmongold presents Perkz's exit as punishment for expressing Catholic opposition to abortion. His central argument is about consistency: he questions esports organizations and industry figures taking Saudi Arabian money while drawing moral boundaries around an individual's beliefs. "Profit based morality is a disease," he says.

Sjokz, in the excerpts he plays, describes championing women's rights and says security concerns forced her to change hotel rooms. Asmongold contrasts her account with the harassment he says Perkz experienced, including his departure from X. His assertion that Perkz faced worse harassment is his assessment, not something the clip establishes through a comparison of evidence.

Despite its title, this is less a point-by-point answer about his stream's influence than an argument about accountability. Asmongold closes by saying that people who encourage online backlash should extend the empathy they seek when criticism reaches them.
