Because he's popular and young people instinctively reject the popular because they think it makes them non-conformist and cool.

Or maybe because Asmon is kinda annoying and his community is one of the most toxic ones in online gaming?

I liken the dude to Dr Disrespect. He's a regular Joe who plays a character because it's successful and makes him loads of money. The rare times you get to see the real Zack, he seems like a pretty smart and chill guy, but the character Asmongold? Nah, he's a douche.
Because he said something that did not align with their opinion once therefor he's toxic forever. Dude is one of the most level headed popular people out there. Yeah he's wrong somtiems or has different opinions than me but holy cow some people are seriously brain dead over "Said one thing I didnt like = always auto bad"

He has the opinion of "I'm right and I'm always right until you prove to me otherwise. And when you show me that I was wrong about something, well now I know whats right and now I'm right again. I'm not going to believe something I dont think is right so show me im not right and I'll change and still be right" and people often take or create extreme scenarios to make niche circumstances to where he's wrong on something he's speaking broadly about or in a different context.

Other times its that he's more into genres others dont enjoy and that can feel like he hates something you love. Such as this being turn based and he doesnt like turn based so he's probably not going to play it.

He has money and popularity. As he says himself, people hate him for it.

Why are you asking other people questions on behalf of a whole other grown man? Have a backbone and worry about yourself.

hes just real smug, i felt bad for him when his mom died but honestly it didn't seem like he handled it properly. i stopped watching right after that.

hes just a troubled person, who is a wrong thinker

Yes some people hate him.

He looks like he smells bad.

I don't actually care about streamers at all. As long as they aren't plagiarizing other people's content, they can be as smelly as they want.

I dunno I think us older gamers don't really care about streamers and their opinions.
I don't even know who it is, so I'm neutral

No hate, just general annoyance towards influenza being brought up in every context

He's a successful streamer who has opinions of his own, which he regularity likes to talk about, but they don't always align with what people believe.
