"He called me out. It instantly backfired."

Asmongold reacts to a public feud with Andy Cortez, a host from the Kinda Funny podcast network, that began when Cortez tweeted about Asmongold's fans trolling his chat. The episode is built around Asmongold's claim that Cortez tried to play the victim after insulting him personally, then got defensive when his own audience responded in kind.

The initial exchange

The conflict started when Andy Cortez tweeted: "Some Asmongold fans came into our YouTube chat because we liked mixtape. Shouldn't it? I promise you, we don't care that you hate our content lol if someone said KF sucks also I watch a racist rotting subhuman that's ugly as heck talk for hours a day dude good LMAO stay away from us." Cortez also locked replies on the tweet, which Asmongold saw as an attempt to create a "safe space" where he could insult without being answered.

Asmongold responded publicly, pointing out that tagging him in a post with limited replies still lets him reply. He wrote: "I know when you make a post with limited replies, the intent is to create a safe space where no one can be mean to you, so I thought you should know. If you need any more Twitter or YouTube advice, feel free to ask." Cortez then made three follow-up posts, accusing Asmongold of allowing racists in his community and claiming he received slurs in replies and DMs.
