So far, here’s my list:
- Brad the Guitologist: went crazy
- Rick Beato: abusive to his kid
- AvE: Canadian Trumper
- Gavin McInnes: leader of the Proud Boys
Others I found that I’d like some backstory on:
- boogie2988
- Jack Doherty
- All the Paul’s (Jake, Logan etc…) no backstory needed here. Fuck Jake Paul!
- SSSniperwolf
- masteroogway
- YouTube kids channels
- Cody Kos
- Lankybox
- Speed mcqueen
JonTron got too big for his britches, fucked off of GameGrumps and then on a podcast popped off the “50% of crimes are committed by 13% of the population” horseshit and then kept doubling down on it, now he makes just garbage tier reaction videos like once every 6 months
Similarly RubberRoss’ cosplayer wife cheated on him with ProJared in what may have been the most pathetic public cuckoldry since Hogan famously belched “I can’t fuck brother! I ate too much sushi” so Holly and Jared both fell apart after that
I don’t know if he counts as a YouTuber because he got canceled on twitch and moved to YouTube but Dr Disrespect live streamed himself at TwitchCon including going into the public restroom where there were minors present. Which is a bad look but could maybe be seen as an accident if it didn’t also come out that he was actively cheating on his wife, whom he had a child with, with women he was meeting with from Twitch. It was all a bit too much and his platform collapsed while he also started firing off lawsuits in multiple directions
Oh god how could he top hogan. Literally getting cucked by a man named Bubba the love sponge.
That’s horrible lmao
Fuck I’m old.
Alternate take: You’ve filtered out the obvious garbage and/or don’t care about YouTube drama!
Ryan Haywood from Rooster Teeth was fired after a number of allegations that he was cheating on his wife with fans. These allegations also included statutory rape and sexual assault. Some evidence was provided to corroborate the allegations. Rooster Teeth removed some videos involving him and publicly distanced themselves from him. He tried to make a comeback on Twitch and got a ton of pushback from it. I believe he ended up getting banned shortly after.
SSSniperwolf. All I know is she steals people videos, does dumb reactions, and gets tons of views. She does not have the rights to use those videos, but profits so much off others work. I do not think she even links to the sources. (I could be wrong)
@brutallyhonestcritic@lemmy.world
jacksfilms provided evidence of Sssniperwolf doxing him by travelling to his house and showing live video footage of it to her millions of subscribers, her stealing author’s content (and not crediting), muting their jokes and saying the jokes herself, reacting to the same clip more than once in a video, and cases of adding zero commentary (wasn’t even on screen).
jacksfilms created a second channel (jjjacksfilms) where he would watch her videos, provide value (he’d critique them and his viewers would learn how to improve their own content by what not to do), AND he’d research and try to include credits to all the original authors that Sssniperwolf was stealing from and didn’t credit herself. He has many videos showing more examples of Sssniperwolf’s shady behaviour.
Despite it being fair use for jacksfilms to critique her videos, Sssniperwolf doxed him.
2023-07-26 Let’s tttalk about Sssniperwolf. (jacksfilms)
2023-08-16 Sssniperwolf is getting worse. Here’s proof. (jacksfilms)
2023-10-14 Sssniperwolf came to our home last night. It’s time for YouTube to step in. (jacksfilms)
I ended up watching a AvE video after a long while (one where he’s making a socket for TTC) it was bittersweet, I used to love his content
Fuck youtube let’s go back to radio shows.
Let me tell you the opie and Anthony fable.
Once upon a time there were a couple guys who wanted to be like stern. They had good connections in the new York comedy world via their co host Jim norton so their show became a haven for comedy. Early louie ck, Patrice o Neal, Colin quin, bill burr, all the guys that came up together.
Then… drama. Anthony cumia goes down the rabbit hole of his prexisting racism. Opie becomes somehow more insufferable and Jim Norton is there I guess because he loves a good coat tail.
Around when their show fell apart the fan subreddit turned completely to being nothing but hate and trolling of these b list former radio celebrities. I’ve never seen anything like it.
There were a lot of funny and talented people shitposting on there. They’d trick news outlets to saying terrorist attacks were made by “antwan kumia”. Relentlessly troll their socials and brigade other communities until they got banned.
This is actually where Gavin put that stuff in his ass on cam. Compound media. Anthony cumias racist podcast network lmfao. I still subscribe because I don’t think I’ll find out anywhere else when he dies.
RIP funniest and most toxic place on internet. My life became better once I stopped reading and posting, but do miss it.
I used to listen to those guys in my car all the time. Sounds like shit fell apart hard!
Did you link the wrong video about Rick Beato? The video (I only watched part of it) was an overview of his videos being taken down by YouTube; sometimes against the wishes of the artists themselves.
I don’t think Rick Beato’s constant rants about YouTube’s takedown policy make him a bad person.
I posted the wrong vid. I stopped watching him because
- he’s an out of touch old dude
- he is an absuive Dad, forcing his kid to play an instrument that he isn’t interested in.
Rick Beato: abusive to his kid
I tried to find a source but it all seems to be memes in the music community because his videos are click baity and his books/lessons aren’t good.
Some of the abuse comments are obvious jokes, “He dyed his son’s hair white and makes him play the oboe.”
Source on the 2nd statement?
Are those barely related facts or are you convinced a kid being just forced to learn an instrument qualifies as child abuse?
I had no idea about the AvE thing. It’s wild but not totally surprising. I used to be an avid watcher of his content but a couple of years ago I started getting bad vibes from and stopped consuming his content. The dirty jokes started to feel like they were more than just jokes and his sexism wasn’t ironic. I also started to notice him making statements that felt dogwhistley.
Mangs - I can’t remember why. Probably sexual abuse.
Shadiversity - went crazy right wing.
Brian Lunduke - went crazy right wing.
Sabine Hossenfelter - not “cancelled”, but shedding her original viewers. Used to post science explainers. Now panders to the anti-intellectual / anti-science crowd.For what reason and when was sniperwolf cancelled?
She doxxed another youtuber she had beef with and showed up at his house.
Oh shiet
Wth was she thinking? Anger management problems i guess
