“matpat gave the pope undertale” sounds way different than “matpat met the pope while representing the YouTube gaming community and it’s customary to give the pope a gift that’s reflective of the culture your represent and he chose undertale, a game about choices, consequences and reflect and peace/love”
Yeah, “matpat met the pope while representing the YouTube gaming community” is actually even more ridiculous so I’m not sure context makes this one better
except the latter is not matpat’s fault and does not reflect poorly on matpat the way people act as though it does
Matpat was chosen because he has a large following. Same reason celeberties are chosen for whatever events they attend. Because mat pat is a celebrity. YouTube is no different than tv or movies.
