I think the more important insight is how desperately he is trying to appeal to the young male demographic, and going so far as to pay a pro gamer to boost his account in a video game so he can pretend to be one of them.
Why? Probably a lot of potential reasons, but anyone with even a little bit of critical thinking skills should immediately become suspicious when they see that. Because whatever the actual reason, it probably isn’t good.
What’s really funny is that he still could’ve faked it. Like, it would be simple to talk on face cam while someone else plays. This showcases his deep narcissism that he is buying his own pathetic hype.
I would assume the reason is that young disenfranchised males are easy to radicalize into a personal army. Every war lord knows and uses this age old trick.
The most charitable answer is sad: that he sees himself as one of them. It’s entirely possible that he thinks of himself as essentially a 20 year old who loves video games, drugs, and trolling.
