I read an article about how high self esteem breeds stupidity(not exactly but that was the summary) and i think it was right High self esteem is crucial for a lot of thing, including progaming. If you look at all the top GSL players Nestea, MC, MVP they all have huge self esteem and egos. What self esteem really does is it allows you to show people who you are rather than hiding behind an image you put up to defend your own low self esteem(for better or worse.) Also from my limited knowledge that most of them( like half in the video) seem to have low self esteem.
The woop woop thing is to feel unity. They may not be the brightest bunch but come on its not because they say 2 words to people in their group to bond with them.

Literally.

The ignorance in this thread is surprising. This video is just the tip of the iceberg. These people are detrimental to mankind.

Literally. And they get stoned before they get on stage aswell.
Not literally.

Moreover, juggalo communities often not just accept and tolerate, but encourage each other to act in such ways.
Well my analysis of them is derived specifically from the description in the OP, in addition to the video.
Tell me, if all you have to go off of is the video, would the following statement seem wrong in any way?
"just seems like a modern spin-off of the hippy movement"
I wasn't saying they were hippies, but from the video, there are obvious similarities in behavior. You're obviously right that actions speak louder than words, but from the video there was no real display of actions which contradicted the attitude they presented.
Like I said in my first post though, I never even knew they existed before the OP so hearing now that they stone musicians and act in other violent ways, I might not compare them to hippies anymore.

I don't see how it makes America look bad any more than a captured serial killer in X country makes X country look bad. They're obviously a very small minority and I'm sure I'm not the only American who had no idea they even existed.
People who make such broad generalizations about other groups of people based on minority cases make themselves look bad.

They also have obvious similarities in behavior to large apes, but they're still technically humans (somehow).

not surprised at all at this.
And no, it is completely ok for you to judge them for celebrating stupidity. If you cant judge people for being willingly *insert negative characteristic*, when would anyone be allowed to judge anything? Exactly. There are a couple of things in the world which are objectively bad for the human race and life in general. Stupidity is beyond the shadow of a doubt one of them.
another thing thats objectively bad are holier-than-thou people

They could probably learn how to play Starcraft if they were forced to, an Ape couldn't. That's how they are still technically humans xD (yes, the defining trait of humanity is the capacity to understand the basics of starcraft)

You know what... Somebody should start a Juggalo Star League where people train Juggalos to try to play SC2. They'd be an auxiliary team member that would only be able to compete in Juggalo events however.

Seem like decent people. Keep in mind everyone you see in that video is almost definitely fucked out of their mind on something.

My first thought is these people are massive bogans and I generally despise people who celebrate the fact they are stupid.
Do they even know they are acting stupid though? I'm sorry I don't know anything about this sub-culture, and the video nor the op shows how they are being willfully ignorant(though I couldn't watch the whole video, sorry). Some people are just born stupid, and how can you fault them for that? Yes, most of them probably fried their brains with drugs, but again, we don't know their background so it's not our place to judge.

This is just dumb. 10 of the top 13 universities in the world are in US. The 3 others are in the UK. Complete cesspool.

Jugallo's are sick fucks.
I dare anyone to play a drinking game for every time one of them say the word "fuck" and I guarantee you will die.

I really don't have a problem with Juggalos. ICP fans are rarely missionary zealots trying to convert people and ICP isn't blared over the radio in public places. I think I've known about 3 people who were fans of this band. They were all tall fat white guys, but fairly well adjusted and un-abrasive people. Obviously I'm sure there's some assholes who like ICP out there, but ICP's fans/music has yet to cause me any grief or annoyance. If those two things are met, I don't really care what they listen to or what their subculture is.
The Katy Perry/Lady Gaga asshole dickfaces, on the other hand, I do have a beef with. 75%+ I dislike strongly as human beings.
