Okay, can you give me an example of any of what you just said?

Do you watch literally any of their content?
The anti-diversity shit has reared it's head in numerous popular videos of theirs about Star Wars, Ghostbusters, and other lesser popular videos as well.

Anti-trans shit dates back years ago and pops up off and on thoroughout their history since that point. As someone who has watched a lot of their content I am consistently baffled by people who say they're fans and don't see this stuff.

Can someone explain to me this clown meme thing? Why is it all over his twitter, YouTube, Reddit, etc? What's the joke involving clowns that I don't get?

You mean Boo Boo the Fool? It means that yourself or someone else has made an action that made the person look foolish.

Example: "Vanessa makin' me look like Boo Boo the Fool for making me knock on an unlocked front door."

God fucking damn it. Can we go a single month without learning another entertainer turned out to be a terrible person? I remember discovering him years ago & sorta remember his days at ScrewAttack, but good lord. The whole divorce stuff was none of my business, but to see the latest update.....it just feels like it's a ticking time bomb to see who's gonna be the next person that turns out to be shit...

...this, however, is great to see & it's a shame we don't see more guys like this.

Assuming he was able to obtain underage nudes from fans, that's considered child pornography if the person in the photo is 17 or younger. The age of consent in the US tends to be 16 years old, though some are 17 or even 18 depending on the state. The age of consent involving pornography, however, is 18. Sending the pictures to minors also counts as indecent exposure or something, it's still illegal if he sent them towards minors.
Thanks for the clarification.

Mike talking about how girls need real role models like Marie Curie and not Diana in the Wonder Woman video. When has he ever made that point about that with other heroes.

Also Mike's hateboner for Brie Larson which is present in both recent Marvel movies and is so present that it causes him to miss details in the movie.

The honest truth about RLM is they are a bunch of out of touch white guys from the midwest. The only one with any semblance of self-awareness is Jay.

I thought the alt-right were using clown memes. Regardless, Clowns are scary as shit and shouldnt be made light of.
The clown meme is calling out those acting like fools, aka clowns. I think what you may be thinking of is the use of the clown emoji in Twitter bios and usernames, which are calling cards. They usually draw NSFW art, and prey on kids.

This is anecdotal but I feel like Snapchat is a strong conduit for cheating. I know a lot of people in relationships who fuck around via Snapchat and it was the platform that facilitated my partner cheating on me with someone she knew. Maybe it's just social media in general

I think Snapchat in general is used for so much disgusting sexual manipulation. I have many underaged friends (I should say I'm a high school senior so it's not like a weird situation) that have been manipulated by people exclusively using the platform for sexual gain. Picture based and easily destroyable evidence are bad mixes.

I used to be quite a big fan of theirs but over the years there was a lot of shit that happened that's made me very turned off by them. I only keep up with them off and on because some of their fans rabidly like to act like I've never watched them when I used to basically nightly.

I do and I have not seen anything like that.

I literally gave you video names and referred to popular video content. You got an example. Your attitude has been hostile since your first question so I have to wonder how sincere you're taking this.. They literally spent a large chunk of Force Awakens to complain about diversity. And they did that shit again in numerous subsequent videos related to SW and Ghostbusters in particular.

As for the anti-trans shit: they have made numerous jokes about trans people, often it's Rich or Mike doing it. Including Rich dressing as a woman for a bit in a Best of the Worst video.

As for the Rich Evans example, there was a thread that posted his anti-MeToo shit in OT a while back that I'd have to look for but honestly just watch Pre-Rec. It's as plain as day as the anti-diversity stuff that you seem to think I didn't give an example of even though I already did?

I will say, people jumping on PeanutButterGamer over his "defensive" tweets the other day is reaction culture at its worst.

Even casual observers are ready to drop the sword on anyone, at any moment, for any little reason without having the full picture.

It's fucking scary how easily a person can be socially assassinated. I'm a NOBODY and yet I feel like I have to walk on egg shells so that I'm not misunderstood about anything I say in public.

Okay, I don't agree with you as I've seen their videos on those movies. I don't think they were making criticisms in bad faith, I think they were doing so from the standpoint of critiquing the actual movie.

Anyway, thanks for the details. I will revisit the videos.

"This aint it chief" immediately to a victim telling her story is objectively shitty tho and deserves to get shit on

He apologised for it. Do you want him to grovel at your feet?
Peebs when he made his apology Tweets even said to Heidi that he doesn't expect her to accept his apology and that's fine considering it was a pretty shitty thing to do to her even if he was more or less tricked but he's still accepting the scorn with grace

If nothing else at least he's redeemable and has a chance to make it out of this better unlike Jared or even Holly who are lucky to get a second chance.

Just last week another Youtuber was sentenced to 10 years in prison for soliciting pornographic videos from kids. He'd tell them that they needed to make them for him to prove that they were his "biggest fans".

I think I know who you are talking about. I read most of the court document and it was sick stuff. I mean, he literally wanted vids of the doing a sexual dance while saying "this (insert body part here) is 14! this (insert body part here) is 14"...like...it was seriously just the worst.

Op is deleted on reddit. Can you or someone tell us what he did?

Oh shit, it was there like five minutes ago, that's when I made the Quagmire comment.

That poster was basically saying she started exchanging messages with him in early 2017, they met at a convention that same summer and had sex with his wife apparently knowing about it based on what he was saying, they kept exchanging sexual messages and nudes, had sex once more at some point in 2018 somewhere, and then he cut off all contact apparently.

idk defending your potential pedophile internet friend who cheated on his wife with fans and others while sending nudes and sexting underage fans at the same time seems pretty fucked up, especially when the defending is tweeting "this ain't it chief" at the primary victim

but yeah totally tho what's happen PBG is really a cautionary tale about how we have to walk on eggshells and never say anything in public for fear of unwarranted character assassination. PBG isn't a piece of shit at all.

Yeah I even read through that thread and all of op posts are deleted. Not sure if op did that or if someone else reported it. Not sure how it works on reddit as i'm not a huge reddit user.

This guy was really a garbage person jesus christ. Manipulating a fan like that is just terrible.

No. I'm responding to someone saying people were jumping the gun by criticizing his really shitty tweets back when he was standing by them.
Back then? He took like one day to correct himself. If he was close friends with Jared, I don't think taking a day to reconsider his position was unreasonable. I could understand if Heidi doesn't accept the apology though.

Why do people follow YouTube personalities? I don't get it.

The only way I ever hear about these people it's because another one pops up for doing something shitty, and yet people act like it's some shocking news each time. There are always these posts like "Wow. I actually liked this guy, guess I'll have to unsubscribe now." You pretty much have to be a narcissistic butthole to become a "personality" so just stop watching these idiots before their skeletons come marching out of the closet.

I've never heard of this guy until today, and now I not only know who he is but I also know that he's out here sending dick pics to children. It's not good knowledge, it won't help me on jeopardy, it's just a waste of time and energy. I wish YouTube "personalities" weren't ever discussed on this website and most others, and just kept in their own YouTube algorithm for people who care about these goofballs.

Just play games. And if you wanna talk about them then do it on this forum or reddit or whatever, but no need to treat random youtubers like any kind of authority on anything or to support their narcissism by discussing them here or sharing their videos.

He didn't know about any of that shit, though.

Like, do you think Jared told all of his friends, "Yeah, of course I send dick pics to minors"?

To be fair when he made the tweet it was only in response to Heidi immediately calling out Jared for stuff like blocking her and was a bit before the nudes came up. Not that it excuses him but initially at the time it was before Jared ended seeming like a total monster and I'd imagine investigations were still ongoing and he didn't have the full picture of the situation

So all of youtube is completely worthless because ProJared is a cunt? Plenty of youtubers are good people who make worthwhile content and have earned their fans.

It was a shitty response and he admits to that. It was also done when 1) He was being lied to by one of his closest friends and thought the ex was being unreasonable and 2) before all of the allegations of him being a creep came out. Coming back and apologizing after a day to digest and disassociating from someone you thought you could trust I think is pretty damn reasonable.

You can go ahead and cancel him if you want but this seems to be an honest mistake to me.

YouTubers are basically the rock bands of today. Sex, drugs, groupies, and underage behaviour.

Instead of running away or sneaking into a concert, kids are now on social media doing who knows what. Not sure which is scarier for the parents.

I just want to point out that the fact that ProJared cheated on his wife IS NOT THE FUCKING STORY! If that is all that had happened I would have no issues with continuing to support ProJared and his content. The story is that he USED HIS POWER AND INFLUENCE TO MANIPULATE HIS FANS including those who were/are UNDERAGED!!!!

Basically it's okay to acknowledge that pbg's initial lashing out was super awful, acknowledge that his apology was good and genuine, but still feel sour towards him for the time being
