    Why do “adults” care how other people spend their free time? Seems like busy bodies with nothing going on in their own lives so they have to judge the bit of free time people have.

        No one is shitting on you for asking a question. Let’s take a look at how you could have asked the same question without coming across as judgemental:

        “I don’t understand streaming. Why do people watch others play games, instead of playing themselves?” - note, no loaded language implying that it’s not a thing “adults” do. Note, you’re clearly communicating that this is something you don’t understand. I promise you, no one would be upset over that question. Phrasing matters.
