“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

Not to mention that he gave the pope what amounts to a cheap $4 gift, or that the pope doesn’t even own a computer.

So tell me why the YT gaming community even needed to send an ambassador to the pope in the first place?

And even if, for some inane fucking reason it was decided that such an ambassador need be sent…fuckin’ MatPat? Who does he represent? How? Why?

I mean, yeah, he’s pretty much the embodiment of a shit-tier, lowest-common-denominator pleb, but that’s not who you send as an ambassador for anything. *HYPERBOLE INCOMING:* This is like sending DSP on a diplomatic mission to Britain. Someone might get a laugh out of it, but WHO WOULD MAKE THAT DECISION AND THEN FINANCE IT?

Well the pope did. He organized an event with 11 youtubers to discuss how the internet brings people together. Mat pat represents the gaming side and had to bring a gift to reflect that. So it’s a bit inaccurate to say that mat pat met the pope and more accurate to say the pope met mat pat since mat pat was the one invited.
