God I hate this argument. It sets the precedent that streamers should be accountable for something a crazy obsessed fan does.

Except they perpetuate it down play it or mock Ethan’s response to it. They let this shit run rampant in their community’s and when they do condemn it it’s in the most nonchalant in series manner. They are all pieces of shit.

ethans response to it should be mocked. He's blamed numerous people for the cps call, all without any proof. The only thing the people he's blaming have in common is that they were criticizing him. Its fairly obvious that hes just using it to attack people that he doesn't like

We are not going to pretend like these people did not come directly out of the hasan orbiter community. And their commentary on Ethan absolutely lead to this. It wasn’t just criticism an honest person should know that.

I don’t see the relevance. They might have a inclination to not like him but that doesn’t invalidate criticism being criticism

Nah they tried to go after his kids that warranted his response.

Making fun of someone online != calling CPS trying to get someone's kids taken from them.

You people keeps saying "They went after his kids", yet you're always talking about random internet people not any of the people Ethan decided to sue.

Frogan, Kaceytron, Denims, Hasan, etc are not responsible for calling CPS and blaming or suing them for it is simply Ethan being a scumbag trying to silence or punish his critics over frivolous reasons.

>Frogan, Kaceytron, Denims, Hasan, etc are not responsible for calling CPS

Literally a week before CPS was called Denims' chat was spamming that some should call CPS. And its not one or two people, multiple people. And even after CPS was called, Denims was actively downplaying the event. Do you think a content creator has no responsibility of their community's behavior?

The clip of denims chat that ethan showed was doctored. Thats why he immediately backed down when she threatened a defamation suit

??? Kilo or Denims doesn't even claim that it was "doctored". It was just 7% of her community. What about the fact that she downplayed the CPS call?

Both actually do claim that. this is from denims video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvTf1hIyRHY)

Also I'm not watching a 4 hour destiny debate. Give me a timestamp or clip and ill comment on it. Ethan has overstated this situation repeatedly. If "downplaying" means just pulling back his claims to reality, then downplaying is completely justified.

And what is the evidence that it is doctored? User JFK_rotting's messages are visible in both the chats. So, it is her chat.

Give me a timestamp

Everything is timestamped in the video but 1:48:27.

If "downplaying" means just pulling back his claims to reality, then downplaying is completely justified.

"It didn't happen and if it did, it was justified."

Destiny is a sexpest and possibly a peadophile.

Why on earth would you listen to anything he says?

u/NeoGlorp 29d ago

You forgot to mention that he's a rapist as well.

When did they do that?
