Right. Because this has anything to do with politics and "liberal tolerance." We need to tolerate more people acting like huge pieces of shite.

Get over yourself.

People love to give millenials shite but that generation below us is going to be so much worse if this is what passes as entertainment to them.


We really need to develop a better trans-generational segment of society who are committed to leaving the values of the Millenial gen behind them.

I'm sure the guy is a douche but he was in a place called "suicide Forest" and came across a guy that committed suicide. I'm not sure why that sparked any outrage. It's not like he was standing there coercing the guy to hang himself.


His entire audience is elementary and middle school children. Not to mention he treats the situation with disrespect.

If this were a documentary for adults, and done professionally, no one would care.

Honestly it doesnt mean shite, he still makes millions a year, this is barely a punishment.

They need to boot him off the platform for a period of time and forego him that revenue, because he still gets ad revenue, just not "top-tier"

To be fair it was pure bad luck.


no.

He and a crew went to the Japan Suicide Forest [crazy dramatic BOOM sound effect] and wandered off into forbidden and restricted areas, with 4 camera guys and a crew.

Then, he makes fun of the situation, while his crew is obviously elated at the views they are going to get, and films selfies standing next to the dead guy while cracking dead guy hanging jokes and laughing.

THEN he takes all the footage, and edits a video to post on youtube to his 10 million subscribers with some lame barely thought out disclaimer, a terrible blur like that makes it okay, and suicide hotline number. The guy puts a disclaimer up, but uses a thumbnail of him making a "WTF" face next the dead body before you even see a disclaimer. Meanwhile his audience are millions of kids and teens.

That was the THUMBNAIL he created.

Bad luck? No.

Here's the video Great lakes and I were referring to

That should bury any idea that this was just "bad luck"

And unfortunately it's not just his "15 minutes". He'll probably continue to make millions of dollars on his channel.
