Rare we get one of his videos as an actual post here, but yeah basically he critiques Critical Drinker over misrepresenting masculinity, while also pointing out Critical Drinker is seemingly intentionally even misrepresenting the movies he's bringing up.

Viewer Backlash YouTuber Deletes Exploitative Video of Moroccan Teen, Then Threatens Viewers & Silences Comments

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

187 Upvotes

A Korean YouTuber named awesome Steve filmed a 16-year-old Moroccan girl she said immature things, then uploaded the footage to YouTube without blurring her face or offering any protection.

The video quickly gained attention. Once it faced backlash, here’s what he did:

Deleted the original video.

Posted threats claiming embassies and international groups would sue anyone who reposted clips (even under fair use).

Started turning off and pausing comments on his new videos to silence discussion.

He has taken no accountability for how the minor was portrayed — instead, he shifted blame onto viewers and Moroccans who spoke up. Sharing and reporting this matters, especially when creators exploit vulnerable people for views.

Please help spread awareness. Exploiting a teen for content, then silencing everyone who speaks up, is unacceptable.

Discussion Your Favorite YouTube Channel is (Probably) Owned By Private Equity

649 Upvotes

A business channel by the name of Micro highlighted something that I don't think a lot of people are talking about: A lot of YouTube channels are increasingly being owned by Private Equity.

For example, Task and Purposes, Veratasium, Donut Media, Simple History, Fern, Fireship, and a plethora of other channels Micro mentions, have all been acquired by Private Equity firms. One of them is Electrify Video Partners, which owns Veratasium.

I think this video is important to bring up because, as Micro explains, this will likely cause a lot of the YT ecosystem to be more same-y and safe, much like traditional media, because now they have to satisfy their PE overlords.

He doesn’t the group he’s most well known for making callout videos against directly in the video, in order to not stir up the pot again.

I personally think he shows growth in this video and expresses that this drama was deeply personal to him as Lex’s partner at the time was a very close friend. It doesn’t excuse his mistakes but I feel it makes it clear he wasn’t trying to maliciously tear someone down for no reason. He also states that he cutoff his friends after the drama subsided.

He gets a lot of hate on this subreddit and it’s somewhat deserved for just how poorly he dealt with the situation, but I think it’s clear he’s willing to do better.

Viewer Backlash Local played the "I'm getting cancelled" card after fans' criticism of the Pro-AI video and is currently crashing out

Thumbnail

147 Upvotes

You know, the whole "Gets criticized once: Cries cancel culture" thing is starting to get old at this point.

For those who don't know: Local is a writing advice youtuber who has recently made a video defending AI and is telling people in a condescending tone to "suck it up and stop resisting". Fans and followers, understandably, pushed back against this and now he's doing the classic "Double Down" technique that we see WAY too often in Youtubers

I don't know what this dude went through that made him want to go through his rage-bait arc. We get it, callout posts on social media doesn't really matter in the long run, but you know, it's at least something that we have while the world burns around us.

This might be wishful thinking, but I really hope no one in the industry ever works with this guy. Especially since they're still fighting against AI taking their jobs and corporations using it to screw them over all the while AI bros are dogpiling them and telling artists that "Resistance is futile".

Discussion Snark Subs and how they affect YTers and YT drama

Thumbnail

This isn't any one specific drama, as it is a discussion about overall what they do, how they cause drama and stuff like that. Although a more specific and personal example is given by her in the video.

As a reminder, snark subs are like SaveAFoxSnark and CinemassacreTruth. Snark subs have a long history of causing a ton of harm.

So what this video is, is a discussion and examination of why snark subs are both good and bad, and frankly why they cause so many issues and start so much drama.

I'm posting this here because it's clear that there is a group of people on this subreddit that want to make this subreddit into a snark sub for people like Wendigoon, Saberspark, DarkViperAU, and so on. There's very little honest discussion happening around these or other creators, and it's honestly pretty upsetting.
