Like, I'm acutely aware that these channels are police propaganda, but has anyone noticed the massive shift in alt-right comments in all of them when they show a POC suspect or god-forbid, victim?

Some of the comments I've seen on a few of them are filled with either dog-whistles at the least or a Klan rally at most.

But something I've noticed is that none of these channels clamp down on these comments at all. They just let them fly free.

I'll just go ahead and sum it up objectively.

Bacon Guy stated he will be skipping the movie "Nimona", his reasoning summed up as not wanting to support childrens content with LGTBQ themes. He said he did similar for Gravity Falls, Strange World, Lightyear, and a couple more.

This was her initial apology, and apology video.

A year ago, Louis Mclung and Katiclyzm had a joint effort in exposing youtuber DankyJabo with not-so-much evidence (her words) consequentially almost ruining his career and he was even offline harassed for it.

I acknowledge it was not a good idea for me to comment on her YouTube plaque post although it did almost cost someone else's career. Through conversing, I was baffled by the fact that a year later, Katiclyzm sees no wrong in her past actions.

Katiclyzm highlights that the most wrong with her hate campaign was "taking it online";

• stood with the fact that Dankyjabo himself told her that he was friends with Imalex; (lie)
  • in her initial apology to Dankyjabo, she wrote "it is good to see DankyJabo has cleared up that he is not in touch with Alex anymore..." and "...now that he has cleared things up (not friends with alex)...".
  • in her apology video, she clarified multiple times that she did not get the confirmation that DankyJabo was friends with Imalexx, citing that as the reason going public.
  • In her comment, she said "[dankyjabo] told me that he was friends with an abuser"
  • so which is it?
• doubling down on the fact that she did not slander, was racially insensitive, or that it was falsely accusing Dankyjabo to be misogynistic despite having a girlfriend.
  • She still stands with the fact that there was not a lapse in judgement (it was all in good faith to expose DankyJabo as misogynistic.

Like I know it was parasocial but hell but so is calling me weird pet names? Last time someone did this was outed as a narcissist. I'm sorry but your subscribers plaque costed someone else's career? invading everything I said and asking if I know how to spell because I wrote "subcriber"..

CorryWith2rs (who'll just be referred to as Corry from here on out) is a challenge runner who posts videos on youtube fairly consistently showcasing him overcoming incredibly difficult challenges in short order. He's done multiple "play through the series but if I die I have to go back to the first game" videos and other videos highlighting him getting through very difficult mods.

But a big red flag that's been surrounding him has been the fact he doesn't stream these runs. He just posts edited videos and highlights of his playthroughs on youtube that often skip over what should be climactic or exciting, and that was suspicious to begin with. But a different challenge runner, uhTrance, actually looked into it more thoroughly after footage in Corry's most recent video raised some red flags for uhTrance, starting first with that the order of games played on Corry's discord play history did not match playing through the RE games in order.

Two (technically three) of the most notable instances are that Corry advertises in two of his videos that he is playing the "hardest RE8 and RE9 mods", referred to as the Village of Shadows Plus Plus and Insanity Plus Plus mods. Their names follow the naming scheme of the legitimate and extremely difficult Madhouse Plus Plus mod for Resident Evil 7, but these mods cannot be found on Nexus Mods (where the Madhouse mod is) or seemingly anywhere else and there are no other videos discussing them either. uhTrance even reached out to the creator of the Madhouse Plus Plus mod confirm that they did not make either of other mods. uhTrance then goes on to claim that Corry likely just made up the claims about these mods and played a run with sped up animations but was otherwise probably normal.

A large amount of the video also focuses on Corry's video on playing through the Resident Evil 4 remake's Berserker Plus, showing both direct and circumstantial evidence to call into question the legitimacy of Corry's run. One brief clip shows Corry killing a freshly spawned enemy with a single bullet from the unupgraded starting handgun. uhTrance also attempts to play through a notoriously difficult section of the mod that Corry entirely skipped over with just a claim of it being "lightwork". Lastly, and most damningly, uhTrance also reconstructs a sequence of the game that apparently only took Corry ten minutes to clear, something that uhTrance demonstrated was impossible even if all the enemies that needed to be killed had their AIs shut off so they simply stood there and let the player shoot them to death.

Whatever differences you may have with Noah, this is an incredibly important fight for free speech on YouTube (ironically, the most important fight since the Matt Hoss fair use lawsuit). The gofundme link is in the description of the video.

Bokoen1 is a Gaming Youtuber and Twitch streamer based in Denmark who mainly plays Paradox Interactive (PDX) grand strategy titles such as Hearts of Iron 4, Victoria 3, and Europa Universalis 5 with friends. Bokoen1 was recently (not sure when, couldn't find an archive of his VODs) playing HOI4 on Twitch and went on a tirade about "Glassing Russia" during the game, continuing despite other people in the call trying to pull him back as he continues to double down. A link to the clip can be found here and I will transcribe what is said in it below:

(For audience reference, "glassing" is in reference to turning sand into glass from nuclear blasts, usually used in reference to the act of systematically nuking the land of an entire country.)

^(Bokoen: "You [another player] should have glassed Russia, that's one thing that I am a staunch supporter of at this point. If anything, after- after World War 2- after World War 2 the Allies should have just glassed Russia, that's just my opinion on it. You- they were pussies for not just wanting to glass them. That's what it was.")

^(Guy 1: "I don't know about that, that would have killed a lot of innocent-")

^(Guy 2: "You see Bo- Bo wait, Bo wait-")

^(Bokoen: "Instead of dropping the second bomb, instead of dropping the second bomb on Japan, they should have just dropped it on Moscow.")

^(Guy 2: "Bo is fucking uh, Holden Bloodfeast, he's Holden Bloodfeast.")

^(Bokoen: "No they should've- they should've just gotten rid of them, literally just get rid of Russia.")

^(Guy 2: "Respectable bipartisan.")

^(Bokoen: "I'm being deadass, they should've just glassed them before they had their own nukes.")

^(Guy 1: "That's weird.")

^(Guy 3: "I don't think John-")

^(Bokoen: "Don't care. Don't care. With hindsight, with the benefit of hindsight, and how ret@#ded the Russian is for not like, doing anything against their fucking dictator and authoritarian regimes they should have glassed them, they should have just glassed the whole fucking thing.")

Bokoen, following his ban, posted the following longer comment on his Reddit account in replies to posts on his subreddit following the ban:

^("The ban makes a lot more sense after I actually understand what glassing means now and rewatch the clip. For that I apoligize, as I've also typed in other comments.)

^(I'd still argue a permanent ban/ 6 months is a little on the harsher side when you look at the past verdicts of Twitch bans and the fact I've had 0 issues on Twitch for +9 years.)

^(As in regards to what the others do it will be up to them. I assume Golden will be the main person worrying as he actually needs the income and depends on it. Swimmy doesn't stream as much and isn't dependant on the income as much as Golden is. A solution would either be they mute me or stream on other platforms.)

^(I will continue streams on Kick in the short term and potentially move to YouTube if I'm not unbanned. Even though I know what Kick is, it is just the easier platform to setup on short term.)

^(Also for anyone saying I'm gonna become a right wing grifter or a nazi, fuck you. You're clearly not an actual viewer and listen to what I actually say if that's what you believe.)

^(I'll take the downdoots to go, but I want this comment to be here so people can read it.")

Followed by:

^("I'll say what I typed in my Discord when some guy asked me this and I was then explained afterwards.)

^(I thought what I was saying was like attacking the USSR using shock and awe with the nuclear bombs the US had at the time. One on Moscow to topple the government the rest on the frontline to gain the army advantage. Then using conventional bombing like they did to Germany and Japan. In the context of Operation Unthinkable.)

^(I was then told my Discord members that glassing means wiping out an entire population. This is not even what I tried to argue in this clip. Obviously that doesn't make the clip not TOS, but I'd like people to stop saying "Bo wants to genocide the Russian population". That is not something I want. I apologize for what I said and have so in other posts as well. It wont change that I still argue that the ban length is too harsh.")

Notably, this both isn't what glassing actually means, and what he advocated for in the clip is nuclear strikes on Russian (then Soviet) forces in occupied Germany and Austria immediately following the defeat of the Axis Powers, along with the Soviet capital of Moscow. If that is any better is up to the eye of the beholder.

Bokoen has also stated on his subreddit that he is eligible to appeal the ban in six months, and plans to move streaming to either Youtube or Kick in the meantime.

Does anyone else think it’s insane that this guy openly posts himself doing illegal stuff in multiple countries and nothing ever happens? I'm not just talking about the smoking, but more so the blatant disregard for public spaces and ignoring airport rules.

He uses “CGI” or “AI” or claims he wasn’t actually there, but the vlogs are real and the majority of them show recognizable locations and repeated behavior. A huge part of his audience is young too which makes it worse. The stealth smoking videos and reckless driving are going to get some impressionable kids into trouble.

I’m honestly wondering how platforms deal with creators like this because the evidence is literally in the videos he uploads himself. Check his second channel for the road laws being broken.

Can people even report this kind of thing properly or do platforms just ignore it unless it becomes a huge controversy? Is there any chance this guy faces any consequences or is he too rich?

previously she had resigned from the Hermitcraft SMP, and unlisted all her previous videos, after her longtime friend Iskal85 was fired from it over allegations of sexting his discord mods

Obvious power dynamic issue there, plus he had a partner at the time that he was cheating on by doing so, he probably could have apologized and come back from that, but he decided to be a freak and double down on having not done anything wrong instead and started doing one of the usual chud "I've been cancelled" video tours.

Stress herself didnt do anything wrong, but she supposedly resigned in solidarity with Iskal, also saying he'd done nothing wrong, so people are understandably weary of her also making a comeback with a large platform on YouTube, plus it seems like she's playing on a server with Iskal also on it in the new video.

There are about a dozen super good videos I could link about this, so for the sake of this post, I'm going to link the main allegations as the actual focus, and then a couple supplementary videos by Technicals and two SoT content creators. (AShinyRay's Video [a SoT content creator], Technical's 2nd Video [provides new context and corrections from his end], L8dyHysteria's video [a SoT content creator])

The TLDR is that a SoT Boatswain aka a community representative/content creator named Bruno was found to be a pedophile, with multiple child victims of various degrees including asking children for nudes, tons of sexual jokes with children, and a bluesky filled with shit like that. Rare did drop them, but the problem for Rare doesn't stop there: the community voted against Bruno ever even becoming a person in power a year before most of these allegations came to light because he had already been found to be inappropriate with minors, and the head community manager at Rare overruled. Then, multiple other Boatswains and community managers got outed as ALSO being pedophiles, which lead to multiple content creators quitting Sea of Thieves.

The community is overall, falling to pieces, and it will probably permanently damage Rare as a company, who were already in the hot seat for SoT, given how poorly they treated customers and content creators.

Hello guys, someone already wrote about this here -> https://www.reddit.com/r/youtubedrama/comments/1rb2e00/updates_on_problematic_creator_povinme/ .

TW: ABUSE

I'm afraid this person is really abusing his cats. In one video, there is four new kittens and in the next one suddenly without explanation there are only three kittens.

This man lost ( like the cats died - sorry not fluent in english ) more cats in two years, than I did in 15 years taking care of cats.

Cats don't suddenly die or dissappear. And cat FOR SURE doesn't suddenly lose it's tail. Like that man had to do something for indoor cat to lose it's tail - not talking about him wiggling the LOST TAIL in fron of his crying girlfriend.

I know people do hope he's not abusing the cats, but I don't think unfortunately that's the case.

Please, I'm not from US, but is there anyone, who could send this case to authorities to look more into it? He's from UTAH.

What can we do about this?

Thank you so much

UPDATE : I've found out, there's only one kitten left. They've deleted videos where they tried to explain where the kittens left.

It's been 3 weeks since I posted about losing my channel, PokeNational, here, and I finally have an update on the situation. The channel is no longer active. During the 7 days I had to refute the situation, things escalated quickly, and misinformation spread widely (Mostly from here and Twitter). So, here's an update video clarifying everything that happened. I do want to thank people for bringing my situation into discussion, but some of y'all straight up don't know what you're talking about.
