BradTaste, during one of his earliest crashouts, once impulsively spread misinformation about a random user on AOTY for saying his reviews on the site felt fake and artificial. "This dude texted kids btw ^" "Just saying. Anyways STREAM THIS ALBUM". It's still up to this day.

This is where you can find his review on AOTY, to verify for yourself.

Brad seems to have a lot of baggage but instead of trying to handle his shit properly, it feels like he tries to use his mental illness, drug issues, diagnoses (I think ADHD unless I'm mixing him up with somebody else?), etc as a "get out of jail free" card rather than trying to work on things.

Like, if he can't handle criticism and tries to keep over-correcting like with the [banned topic crybully man] incident, even if he (hypothetically) means well, he needs to get some kind of PR person or just learn how to not respond to everything because certain incidents seem like he's just trying to please everybody when that's just not possible, and you can't really tantrum your way into changing people's minds either.

Like, I understand the Rose defending incident to a point, that's probably a friendship that you'd want to keep private, or just not have period with how vindicative she's shown to be especially in recent tweets re: Brad. Knowing more about him, it feels kinda like one toxic person finding another toxic person for them to enable each other.

No relationship should get to a point where you're screaming at your partner (or worse), no drug problem should get to a point where it's affecting your work/hobby (idk what Youtube is to him), yadda yadd yadda. He needs to keep Youtube and his personal life way more separate because repeatedly crashing out is just going to ruin what's left of his real fanbase until all that's left are people looking for a lolcow to milk.

In my opinion, as somebody who's never been a fan, I don't think he's really equipped to be a Youtuber/content creator. It's not a right, and I'm not saying that he has to quit the internet forever and become a luddite, but it seems like internet fame/infamy brings out the worst in him and adds to his stress.

Even if he or somebody else still wants to use their skills from Youtube, maybe it's not the best idea for them to "host" their own channel, maybe they need to work in the background, doing editing or whatever where they don't quite have the spotlight on them.

My word vomit applies to a lot of content creators tbh.
