I'm noticing a lot of attempts to discredit the accusers by painting them as weirdo and crazy. But you know, I wouldn't expect teens manipulated by someone they look up to and sending nudes to youtubers they idolize to be 100% rational.

One of them ran a Game Grumps porn blog? No, that checks out. What's your point?

See that's they thing they were doing that stuff before Jared allegedly manipulated them. Everything they did post-accusation wasn't strange at all. They made the accusations. Emailed a bunch of people, then after the situation was over they deleted the accusations. Everyone's so wrapped up in dissecting every little ounce of Jared's story. Yet the accusers stories have glaring holes that are being overlooked. It was already in everyone's minds that he's "guilty" so that's how it's going to remain for a lot of people. Regardless of what actually happened.

my big takeaway from all of this is that e-celebs and their biggest followers just arent the most well-adjusted people.

His wives/girlfriends/whatever they are all kind of seedy. Hes pretty seedy. His followers are obviously too infatuated and he clearly has been taking advantage of them.

Just not good people.

But Jared's story also has plenty of holes. He admits he can't remember any of these details. He's mainly just trying to discredit them as much as he can. Others have pointed out the sketchy parts of his story, and Jared comes off as a kind of a creep even if they are making it up. Nothing here really inspires confidence

He seems even more sleazy after that, honestly. All the talk about proof and receipts just devolved into a smear campaign. In many cases he couldnt even definitively say he didnt do it and went for I dont remember instead. That screams guilty to me.

It's weird seeing how quickly people fawned over this video on his subreddit (actually his second subreddit, the first subreddit got made private).

My dad actually asked me about this today, because I was a big fan of ProJared and showed my family the LttP randos way back...oof.

Anyway, Jared comes across as a creep in many ways for this. But disproving the major issue (the two underage users) was the pressing problem. While I don't like the, "they were just using me and manipulating me for attention whoring" line of thinking, disproving them is enough to avoid serious legal trouble and win back some people. Cheating on Heidi, if that did occur, was never a problem for me. That's their fucking business. It only affects them and people around them, but has no legal backlash associated to it.

Social media is a huge cesspool, and it sucks that people like Jared got caught up in it. I'm kinda torn on this, because he still gets stained by this problem. However, I did keep watching Nostalgia Critic after that fuck up and still enjoy it. I may eventually watch or subscribe to Jared again. I enjoyed watching his content for quite some time.

It's a shit situation all around.

I never got this line of logic. Why shouldn't I judge people for cheating on their significant others? It's a shitty thing to do. Just because it's legal doesn't mean I shouldn't care.

More importantly, once info becomes public like that, why does it become "it's their private life, what do you care?" Like yeah I'm sure there's a bunch of shitty celebrities cheating on their wives/husbands/girlfriends/boyfriends behind the scene but I'm not going being able to say anything unless I actually know. But once I do know and it does become public, why am I not allowed to say anything or have an opinion?

When did I say I didn't judge him for it? I said the other issue is way worse. Is it still shit? Yes, but people fall out of relationships for lots of reasons. I don't ascribe to any "sanctity" or "one true love" situation, because I know love and relationships are complicated.

If they don't like each other, they don't like each other anymore. It's understandable and relateable, where the Chai/Charlie thing is definitely not.

Cool, then legally move out of said relationship before you start fucking around with other people, especially people who are also married to, supposedly, one of your friends. At the very least you should properly separate if you're not yet legally so before you go around fucking new people.

He better hope that Ross backs him up on "Ross knew and was OK with it".

as someone who, as i said, is 100% an outsider and therefore theoretically objective (though we all have our own biases), and someone who saw the initial allegations and trusted his wife and thought he seemed creepy and clearly bad, i definitely believe there is some merit to his side of the story. i remember seeing text messages and stuff months ago that showed that his wife encouraged him to start a relationship with the other woman and it seems their relationship was rocky all around and i can't say for sure if either party is solely to blame. of course, i don't have enough info, i don't know them, this is all strangers on the internet, which isn't the best way to reach a correct conclusion.

but in this video, the main thing i saw (and hence pointed out) is that he does literally show evidence that an accuser who said "he never asked if i was 18, he should've known" was lying, because he has chat logs saying "are you 18?" "yes, i am". say what you will about the rest, but that seems to be the only solid piece of evidence in the thing, and i think that should count for something.

probably should have led with that one instead of the other one, which i admit was definitely "well, they're a crazy person, so we can't know" and is not proof, it's entirely a he said they said situation. that said i do think it paints enough of a picture that there is reason to doubt the accusation. that's just my opinion. i could be wrong and being unfair and victim blaming. if i wanted to reach a correct conclusion i'd need to actually hear the accuser's defense of those inconsistencies, which i'm not doing because like foolmo said i'm not a judge or a lawyer or a juror, just a random guy on the internet.

Heidi's account probably has a lot riding on this too. She got a crazy jump in support thanks to the scandal. I get that "legal" part of it, but I would like to know what this whole "open" relationship entails.

From what I read, they were in an open relationship and she had her own flings too. The difference is that Jared wanted to get more serious with his and wanted to end his marriage.

He also brought Jirard the Completionist into this who is a pretty well-liked dude as well. Considering Jirard's first response to this accusation was to donate $5k to various suicide prevention charities, Jared is playing a dangerous game if he's not backing him up, either.

If this is Holly's word only and she doesn't have actual proof, I'm inclined not to believe it. I generally struggled to believe that they both wanted an open relationship when Jared was the only one soliciting nudes.

the idea that a youtuber made a "fans of mine post their nudes" blog on a different website largely also used by children (for uh, body positivity..) and had no idea underage people would be using it is something you would have to be very very dumb to believe. asking "are you 18" is specifically to cover his ass, and this video also just makes him seem like a manipulative psycho.

thanks for the transcript, no way i would've watched that.

he still doesn't sound like a well adjusted person and comes off pretty creepy, but sounds like he put and surrounded himself with grifters and made himself an easy target. still sounds like a scummy guy but also sounds like they took advantage of that aspect hard to ruin him. some of the stuff can be provable, like the E3 thing, as false. some stuff can be supported by independent testimony too. the "victims" immediately relying on e-begging is also a giant red flag. not like he's totally innocent either like his whole "oh i totally was exchanging nudes but said it's for adults!" is something anybody knows is a gigantic loophole, the same way every porn site has that "you must be over 18 to enter" banner that everyone knows is horseshit. so of course that's something he knew wasn't always going to be the case but was just trying to cover his ass on. if you gotta ask "hey are you 18" that's a giant red flag. yes, you can photoshop pictures but know what? that means that you've actual tangible proof that they were lying to you by sending you photoshoped pictures. so that "oh anyone can do it" excuse is bull. it's a logical cover your ass move that he didn't do because he didn't want to open that door as he knew he was on very thin ice.

whole thing sounds like yeah he got taken advantage of and run through the ringer by people scamming and e-begging. he was also a creepy dude that willingly put himself in a position where they could take advantage of it because he was trying to skirt by with technically true excuses, which is also why he immediately went the apology route. sounds less scummy than his wife and the people involved but still sounds scummy.

surely if it was obvious that "i ask them if they're 18" was a cover for "i know they're not but, y'know, legally..." though he'd get in trouble for it before this? and wouldn't do it publically?

Cancel revolution of 2015 makes sense. So many people digging up old social media posts and what not.

Casual revolution 2.0 i think is reserved for when deepfakes become overwhelmingly prevalent, which is certaintly soon
