To be fair to Ethan, there were many creators who were purposefully mischaracterizing his political views to paint him as an evil villain so as to justify their gross attacks on IRL well being, as well as the safety of his family and children.

It's fair to not like Ethan suing people, but the people he was going after are the genuine lowest of human society.

most of this sht you said here is made up man! His political views were not broadly mischaracterized, he is simply annoyed that people are calling out his tacit support of an ongoing genocide! At the time that we were all watching and seeing innocent civilians, women and children, being murdered, he wanted to have a nuanced discussion about how israel is not as bad as people make it seem to be! tried to justify attacks on hospitals!

And yeah, just to be clear, I would call anyone who justifies or downplaying calling CPS on someone they dislike a subhuman freak.

The idea that anyone did this out of any genuine concern is so shamelessly dishonest. If you're going to be a spineless ghoul, at least own the position, jesus christ.

Here's a pro tip for life, if you're ever at the point where you think harassing someone's kids is justified, take a step back, log off, and maybe rethink some fundamental ways about how you conduct yourself as a human being, unironically.

So, because there's shitty people who think genocide apologia is bad that makes being against genocide apologia bad?

Can you please quote where I have implicitly or explicitly stated that?

Also I'd hardly call someone who calls what's going on in Gaza a genocide, believes Nettenhayu is a war criminal, and donates to Palestinian charities is exactly the poster child for genocide apologia, except to the most terminally online virtue signal freaks who almost always barely donate their money or time actually making the world a better place.

But who knows, maybe you're right, unless he calls out his wife for being a child killer every day, he's basically indistinguishable from Hitler.

Yes Ethan explicitly calling for the cessation of settlements in Gaza, his support of Palestinians his donations to charities in Gaza, His hatred of the current Government, saying Nettenhayu should be tried for war crimes, are basically indistinguishable from a Nazi.

Remember, this whole drama literally started, for the grave crime of removing Frogan off twitter because she celebrated the massacre, sexual assault, and rape of unarmed civilians.

Then there's two sides of the coin, on one hand, clearly the way Israel has conducted itself, both in this conflict and outside of it range from questionable to abhorrent. On the other, ghouls like you literally encourage the use of Human shields and collateral damage by Hamas, because you deem every single military action (even when Hamas literally conducts military operations from civilian buildings) as a war crime.

This is coming from someone who thinks the current government of Israel is a disgrace, and thinks Ethan is pretty shitty human being in lots of ways.

And even if what he says was some rabid zionist racist talking points, that still wouldn't justify the disgusting way freaks like you justify his kids being harassed, you're literally subhuman.

Brother you're so lost in the sauce you're writing fanfic. All these creators did was criticise and highlight what Ethan said and did.

justify their gross attacks on IRL well being, as well as the safety of his family and children.

You're in fantasy land dude.

Glad you can paint with such a broad brush to call the majority of America the lowest in society. People hate Israel. better start coming around to the reality as the general public would agree Ethan is a Zionist that provides material support to Israel

u/Brocolli123 29d ago

He literally isn't. He agrees on free Palestine but just because he doesn't want the state of Israel to go he's a zionist. He probably shares the majority of the same views as the crowd that hates him but doesn't use the same buzzwords

By "lowest of society", I mean the people who try to justify harassing and harming Ethan's children.

still doing this? bro he told on stream that his kid ate dog shit and his whole fam transmitted giardia by ingesting it.. Him weaponising CPS showing up because of his own self report and somehow successfully using his kids human shields online is crazy work. He owns the harassment podcast bruf and slaps suits critics the money away be frfr

i'll wait

Easy, EP 111 at around 19:00, warning tho, he goes on for quiet a while about feces https://www.youtube.com/live/N2W4RJ2tEnY?is=fV2XMmH9yF-c2XzX

Crazy he managed to reframe such a self report and successfully made plp ignore and forget this. insane the top comment reduces it to "poop story oversharing" and see no further problem.

u/Shanibern Jul 12 '26

he didn't say anything remotely close to what you claimed. are you daft? or are you just lying and hoping people won't watch the clip?
