    MrBeast. now his cool, philanthropic facade has crumbled, but before he even created it, he made edgy “jokes” about buying Black people…

    SSSniperWolf. Holy shit, she was brutal on Omegle telling kids to off themselves & shit. But then she started stealing content, so…

        The situation with Jacks Films was so fucked up. She literally showed up at his house to try to talk to him about his call out videos.

        YouTube seemed more likely to punish Jacks Films. They basically “both sided” the incident. Absolutely insane. She’s just making YouTube too much money for any of the rules to matter.

          Tell me about it. Dude was in fear for his safety and YouTube are like, jacksfilms was bad too! Eff you, Google. He did nothing wrong.

          His jjjacksfilms channel doesn’t show up in the search bar, which is really weird given it’s a big channel. It’s like YouTube doesn’t want you to find him criticising their little cash cows. Stalkerwolf is invincible.

          YouTube is properly messed up. It’s basically a monopoly though. People won’t post elsewhere if they can’t monetise though 😞 a fedi YouTube alternative will never catch on. At this point I’d even welcome Microsoft or scamazon creating a rival service.

      There is at least a claim that she told a 16yo to flash herself on Omegle in a video.

      Apparently she deleted the video in question.

    Look up the guy who made “actual cannibal Shia Labeouf”… Interesting transition there too

    Brutalmoose, but ten years ago. He went from shitting on mediocre games and swearing a lot to super chill stuff and food reviews. I actually love all of his new stuff.

    It’s not exactly the same, and it’s been a long time now, but watching Grace Helbig go from DailyGrace with a vaguely male-catering focus and general no fucks given attitude into becoming Grace Helbig, Internet Big Sister for zoomer girls, was pretty jarring.

      But isn’t that the opposite? Though I watched Lars’ reaction and he actually said that Riolu became less edgy when his streaming took off

    I actually miss the humor that stemmed from an environment where everything was assumed a joke unless it’s missing a punchline. Not the racism/sexism/etc, which was prevalent of the time it became popular, but the style. The edgy style can be done really well (e.g. Bo Burnham, George Carlin, etc…).
