            • 00:00 - 00:30 destination The beach is surprisingly dangerous Consider the [ __ ] thing in our defense like actually Ela's not a baby killer Actually accusing Ethan of killing his dog is maybe too uh too far because they have mobilized such an insane harassment group that anybody who says any [ __ ] thing they will attempt to ruin their lives And once again I'm the crazy one

            • 02:00 - 02:30 out of context Everything was correct I am an Islamist fundamentalist radical terrorist I am a vicious anti-semite It's true Most importantly Ethan is more attractive than me both physically and also mentally I've been lying about everything including my glasses They're fake He was right about that That's not even in the content nuke And he was right about that too How did he know everything
            • 02:30 - 03:00 how wake up Ethan Wake up Ethan Ethan wake up Wakey wakey Ethan wake up Ethan wake up Time to be awake Ethan wake up Ethan this is no longer a dream This is a nightmare Wake up Ethan The dumb [ __ ] is telling you to wake up Wake up Ethan Wake up Wake up Ethan Ethan wake up Wake up Zoom Anyone just wake up

            • 03:30 - 04:00 up All right I didn't plan on making a content cop on H3 It sounds very stupid even saying that H3 content cop Idubbbz Ethan Klein's out of control And then you should do a content cop on Hassan Pah Content cop on on Sargon of Akid If I would imagine this in 2016 I would
            • 04:00 - 04:30 have been like "Oh yeah if I ever do that it's got to be because I lose the plot." Well it turns out it's not me losing the plot It's Ethan He's the one who [ __ ] attacked first My good [ __ ] friends who I stood by after all these [ __ ] years can't find a spine to speak up So go [ __ ] yourself I agree All right guys I'm going to tell you a story about Ethan Klene I know some of you have been following him but there's a lot of people who might not be
            • 04:30 - 05:00 familiar with the background with his podcast with what's been going on over the past couple of years So Ethan as you know is a content creator who has a podcast where he says all sorts of outrageous stuff Sometimes it's fun sometimes it's [ __ ] up He's had shows with all sorts of different controversial characters He's had a show with Trisha Pis He's had a show with Hassan [ __ ] In doing so he's gathered a ton of different audiences Now in his podcast with Hassan Leftovers they would
            • 05:00 - 05:30 mostly talk about surface level progressive [ __ ] and make fun of right-wingers And you're telling me he didn't flick their dick once at least oh that's Hunter Shaver She's a trans woman I say oh no And it was mostly that until they actually had to reckon with a very serious topic I would say that Hassan was very well equipped to talk about that topic uh Palestinian people living in the West Bank are are subjected to these horrific conditions horrific living conditions by the state of Israel
            • 05:30 - 06:00 America's greatest ally and the only democracy in the Middle East if you ask uh Republicans and even liberals What that dance he invented was kickass Israeli settlers are trying to evict Palestinian families in occupied East Jerusalem The United Nations says that that may be a war crime It literally is Was just eating the toppings and the pizza looked like a burn victim It was all disgusting I don't know if you can make that joke in 2021 He's insensitive to burn I think it's a good analogy It's a powerful image Ethan was not prepared
            • 06:00 - 06:30 for this Ethan the whole time is more of the the goof guy And that's fine You know we don't expect Ethan to be an expert on the topic Ethan was obviously caught in this tricky situation where he is extremely sympathetic to the Israeli cause and what's happening to them His wife's Israeli She served in the IDF He obviously likes the state of Israel On the other hand he's just got done capturing a massive progressive audience who are very politically savvy They
            • 06:30 - 07:00 follow Hassan Hassan is strictly a political streamer So this is something they are very keyed into So when they see Ethan say things that are just like not accurate and it's just propaganda they're going to call it out from the river to the sea essentially means the state of Israel is going bye-bye So this massive progressive audience that Ethan has you know adopted over the years They're becoming increasingly critical of his position because now he's talking
            • 07:00 - 07:30 about it not on leftovers He's now talking about it on his podcast What I want to do is show you guys how I see Israel because you don't see that when you listen to Hassan and you hear all these [ __ ] left like mega lefties talking about it like it's some super racist like uh crazy you know like Jim Crow style society Like I can't wait to show you guys The other day BB fired a really good guy that a lot of people are pissed about So Ethan is having this back and forth with his liberal audience leftist people online progressive content creators Hassan all of these
            • 07:30 - 08:00 different people He's finding new people every day basically to get in fights with Of all people this guy Matt Leeb Frogan and Denims and all these [ __ ] and everybody thinks this guy's awesome apparently even though he looks like Milhouse [ __ ] dork Denims by the way was the real villain of the video Evil hateful [ __ ] and I'll say it and I'll double down on it and people Oh no not go there And it's all culminated at least for my story in Ethan burning bridges with people until he burned the
            • 08:00 - 08:30 bridge with me Since Ethan and Hassan's falling out I've been keeping to myself mostly I I don't have many nice things to say Maybe if Ethan's able to get some help Maybe if he stops harassing other creators Maybe if he does these things eventually he'll find peace and we can like rekindle our friendship So that's been my approach I've occasionally thrown a a joke Ethan's way in the form of Hassan [ __ ] versus Ethan Klein for boxing I like I like Idubbbz He's a good
            • 08:30 - 09:00 guy but I don't like this sweet stupid It's not a [ __ ] petty beef It's like this guy is evil and he's doing anti-semitism and also he's way out of my weight class Uh he didn't like that but [ __ ] sometimes you got to just throw something out there I used to work with this video editor named Froggy Tonic I discovered him because he was in the circles online that I was in And one of those circles is an H3 fan He watched Ethan's content
            • 09:00 - 09:30 he liked Ethan's content until he didn't like Ethan's content There would be an occasional froggy tweet where I'd be like I agree with that you know like I'm not gonna endorse it I'm not going to retweet it or like it but fair enough I guess I just miss my old friend Some wings are too bird feathered colored Now that brings us to February 28th of this year Now my former editor of a year and a half ago did say some truly mean [ __ ] He called Ela the C-word
            • 09:30 - 10:00 He said they're trying to kill their dog with cheddar cheese and a bunch of other [ __ ] I'm sure Ethan at some point discovers that Idubbbz's former editor says this horrendous [ __ ] about him and Ela But no one's asking the question where does Ethan get this information from you see it would be very obviously a problem if Ethan was discovering this content by scrolling through Twitter looking for something to upset himself
            • 10:00 - 10:30 with He has maybe set it up in such a way where his employees feel the need to send him this information and that would be horrible They shouldn't be doing that They should be sending you things that are entertaining for your show that don't [ __ ] trigger the hell out of you Why is there so much work being put into discovering this guy on Twitter who's barely getting any interactions linking him to me and posting on the Reddit when there's no work being put into who the [ __ ] is the person on the Reddit who's posting this in the first
            • 10:30 - 11:00 place if you do a little bit of research it seems like it's an account whose intention is to make Ethan crash out One of the users on the Snark Reddit points this out They're like "I've seen this account before This account has scraped its its history and it's now trying to make Ethan burn bridges This is within Ethan's own community Like this is the thing that he needs to be critical of It's not me So yes I am willing to admit that my former editor was being very
            • 11:00 - 11:30 nasty uncharitable and [ __ ] up towards Ethan and Ela on Twitter But Ethan and Ela are doing the same [ __ ] on their podcast so I don't want to [ __ ] hear it terrorist supporter the CEO of Twitch pedophile Now I'm going to watch and respond to the two podcast streams where Ethan and Ela call us spineless cowards Anyway this guys was saying [ __ ] like that Elila is a Nazi that she kills kids that she went on like she's a like a IDF baby killer all these types of [ __ ] And
            • 11:30 - 12:00 that's showing up right up on us nieces and Idubbbz's feed My good [ __ ] friends who I stood by after all these [ __ ] years can't find a spine to speak up You know why cuz they'll get murdered You don't know what's on my feed What the [ __ ] is happening for all you know I only use the for you tab For all you know I only use lists For all you know I'm seeing these things tweeted out by my editor of a year and a half ago and saying "God that is nasty." I'm just not going to
            • 12:00 - 12:30 throw someone away because they're having a parasocial weird moment Just like I'm not going to throw Ethan Klein away because he's having a parasocial weird crash out How many women I [ __ ] hassan by the way thousands Yeah thousands Let me ask Galia These shoes do not go I'm sorry Oh my god Hassan's the type of dude who look watches himself in the mirror when he has sex Watching me on a 30-second delay on your stream Wait that's what I'm Wait how does he know I'm watching already cuz you've been talking about it for the
            • 12:30 - 13:00 last 5 minutes It's not a [ __ ] petty beef It's like this guy is evil and he's doing anti-semitism These shoes do not go I'm sorry There are many people I'm sure who have unfollowed you for the things that you've said and done And I'm sure there are even more people who have stayed following you because they don't want to throw the baby out with the bathwater They don't want to throw someone away because they've had some hard moments We're all [ __ ] human My
            • 13:00 - 13:30 good [ __ ] friends who I stood by after all these [ __ ] years can't find a spine to speak up You know why cuz they'll get murdered And what you're saying to me is that I'm a bad friend and I'm a piece of [ __ ] I'm spineless I'm cowardly because I am following someone on Twitter because they have mobilized such an insane harassment group It's not bad enough that I have this group of people harassing me and everyone in my life is that people
            • 13:30 - 14:00 outside of this group journalists creators are actively participating in this gaslighting to make it seem like I'm [ __ ] crazy I mean I don't know what he's getting at here Like yeah people are gaslighting you A lot of people gaslit me when I uh apologized That was actually like the number one type of harassment I got was people gaslighting me and and uh taking my newfound woke ideology to its extreme I probably done and stood by Idubbbz and Ana more than anybody I've stood by them
            • 14:00 - 14:30 when all the internet hated them I don't like that Ethan brought this up because it makes the relationship feel very transactional Like you know we're we're just meant to support each other online despite our own personal morals or principles But I'll say this I don't think they're [ __ ] any friends of mine And certainly I don't think they're any [ __ ] friends of mine based on the text conversation I had with them too before I even talked about it So I have no I have nothing I like I don't need any [ __ ] halfway friends man I thought the text conversation that I had
            • 14:30 - 15:00 with him was very empathetic I basically just said like I know you and Ela are experiencing a ton of harassment and I essentially empathize with that and I think there's something positive to get out of the conversation But he refused to talk on the phone unless I was willing to publicly say something about my former editor and denims As much as you don't want halfway friends I also don't want that kind of halfway friend I don't want someone who's going to give
            • 15:00 - 15:30 me like an ultimatum to have a conversation Could you not say something when this is like imagine like one of you guys is like uh Hassan actually wants to go to Israel go to God so he can strangle Israeli babies or some [ __ ] like that I'd be like you imagine me not saying something You're trying to make a onetoone comparison where there isn't one This guy that I follow on Twitter is not in the same relationship as you and one of your current employees who is streaming with you 3 days a week 3 hours a day for the past 10 years At one point
            • 15:30 - 16:00 during the stream Ethan and Nila bring up Adam McIntyre Now Adam does basically the same thing as my former editor He's critical of Ethan and Ela and he is sometimes uncharitable and nasty towards them Adam McIntyre needs to just like disappear That guy is a piece of [ __ ] Like of the lowest order I never even stood by him when he talked bad about Trisha having a kid and called him like the spawn of Satan He was supposedly on our side I would never even co-sign that I was disgusted by that statement too I
            • 16:00 - 16:30 remember when he called her kid the spawn of Satan I never said anything And I was supposed to be like cheering on but I wasn't going to cheer that on That's disgusting How did you forget that he called her children which is something we would never do the spawn of Satan It's disgusting piece of [ __ ] of a human It's just incredible who who ends up being the good guys in this story you know it's it's really something Unfortunately they never made a statement They never said that they disagree with his statements about Trish's baby until it's useful
            • 16:30 - 17:00 Like what is it 3 years later like I mean you're talking about it like you were aware of it at the time and that there was some amount of uh pressure or enthusiasm for you to get down with that And what it sounds like to me is that you did see it at the time and you were like "Oo I don't like that." And you didn't endorse it and you didn't [ __ ] with it Huh It's almost like that is a [ __ ] identical situation to me It's just incredible who who ends up being the good guys in this story you know
            • 17:00 - 17:30 it's it's really something So yeah the reason I'm bringing this up is because they're trying to like paint themselves as the good guys and they're saying like "Yeah we we strongly disavow things that are said even about our enemies We are the most immoral people on the internet unlike Ian and Ana who are [ __ ] keeping to themselves Also why the [ __ ] does Olivia get the pass?" What a [ __ ] [ __ ] for putting you in that position Olivia You're friends with him and you don't have to say anything but like what a [ __ ] piece of [ __ ] What a
            • 17:30 - 18:00 bad friend to put you in that position just for some [ __ ] clout It gets people angry at you like "Oh how can she be friends with him?" Which is total [ __ ] Okay Olivia did not do anything And I want the pass Do I have to be an employee to get that treatment because then you'll just see me as an ally or is it is it because Ethan is afraid of wrongful termination accusations and lawsuits and also I don't mind putting my friend Olivia who's apparently my real friend in a terribly weird [ __ ] uncomfortable situation where you end up getting hate for no reason Also don't
            • 18:00 - 18:30 frame it as like other people making it hard on Olivia You're making it hard on all of these people Please acknowledge your role in this whole [ __ ] thing Like it's crazy how warm Ethan is to Olivia and saying how Olivia is essentially just a victim in this whole thing It gets people angry at you like "Oh how can she be friends with him?" which is total [ __ ] But me and Ana are spineless Ethan your whole system is scrambled My intention isn't to throw the employees under the bus Like you
            • 18:30 - 19:00 guys serve as the [ __ ] foundation for calling out Ethan's hypocrisy on the whole subject And I know that you guys have probably pushed back against Ethan over the years How often are you supposed to do that do you have to do that every [ __ ] week it kind of seems like it and that's exhausting I don't want to confront my boss It's not my [ __ ] job to confront my boss and say "Today's segment on rapists and pedophiles on on Twitch was not like my not my favorite segment to be a part
            • 19:00 - 19:30 of." Yeah Friends like these Uh Oh yeah And our other good friends Ana and Ian Thanks Ana for standing up for your girl I actually stood up for you so many times cuz like why why would I not it was crazy Yeah Why would you not i mean if that's truly what you believed and you weren't just going to use it later Of course I was going to stand by you That's insane It's absolutely insane and disgusting But now you choose to hang out with people that would have a problem with you if you defended me I'm not going to assume that Ela knows but
            • 19:30 - 20:00 I'll say it for anyone who doesn't know Ana is half Lebanese and half Irish For anyone unfamiliar the Irish have been on the receiving end of a lot of oppression and genocide On the part of the Lebanese they've received a lot of oppression and attacks from the IDF So Ana is very well familiar with the propaganda and the [ __ ] coming out of Israel choosing now out of all the times to be like "Please defend me." No we're not going to [ __ ] defend you Uh Rudy was saying
            • 20:00 - 20:30 that Palestinians are taught at 2 years old to kill Americans Do we have that one like just the other day BB fired a really good guy that a lot of people are pissed about Um he looked mean I thought he was mean just cuz he looked mean No it's not So yes you caught us We're not going to run to your defense when uh I don't know we follow people We be following That's one [ __ ] up thing that you can say about Anise and I is when we're on Twitter we do be following So the problem okay if you want to hang
            • 20:30 - 21:00 out with those people and have no spine and not stand up for another girl that stood up for you enjoy your new friends She's friends with people like Denims I which I'll show Denims is actually participating in this whole child protective service lie Yeah And if you're friends with them then you're seeing what they're saying You'll notice that Ethan and Ela start talking about this Denims character Originally the complaint was about my former editor He's been chatting [ __ ] about Ethan and Elila for the past year at least They
            • 21:00 - 21:30 only care about it now because I guess it was spoonfed to them via their Reddit that's clearly looking out for them Now I'm not going to sugarcoat it where we are friends with Denims but I would say it's the same level of friendship that we had with Ethan and Ela It's like kind of an internet friendship We think that she's a good person like we think Ethan and Ela are good people Kind of a tricky situation How can you possibly think that they're both good people at their core people can have crash moments
            • 21:30 - 22:00 People can say things that they don't mean People can say things because they want internet clout and attention I don't know I think they're both probably guilty of saying things that they don't mean for internet clout and attention right now One's a little bit more [ __ ] nasty to me than the other I just don't see how you can be my friend and also be friends with someone like that Well you can't So I already forgot about you I actually have a lot of friendships that are kind of that way where it's like you know one of the
            • 22:00 - 22:30 friends doesn't [ __ ] with the other friend but there is someone in the middle who kind of [ __ ] with both of them but separately Yeah there's a lot of friendships that are like that I'm not going to make you guys like meet up and kiss or anything I get it You guys are in [ __ ] You're either my best friend who's deeproating me to the base of my [ __ ] or you are Satan You're the davil The last thing I said to Ana we were texting before I ever talked about
            • 22:30 - 23:00 it She's like I don't care about this guy He's a nobody and you know blah blah blah And I said well then you'll have no problem uh publicly denouncing it right mhm And then from there the conversation ended She never replied Ethan you you can't even phrase it in a way that doesn't make you sound like you're being coercive and shitty Well then you should have no problem publicly denouncing it right does that sound like a friend it kind of sounds like something a powerful villain would say But it was so funny
            • 23:00 - 23:30 how she immediately went to comment everywhere like on our subreddit She immediately had to comment like "Oh it doesn't work with us anymore." But that was it That's all she said But then say say that you don't Okay Do you have anything else to say for your friends though one of the reasons Ana was so quick to clarify things in your Reddit is because your Reddit was already talking about who this editor is and they were spreading misinformation that it was our co-host on our podcast Uncle Dne So yeah the last thing we wanted is this guy getting pulled into this mess
            • 23:30 - 24:00 and you guys don't give a [ __ ] Would it have been nicer and more supportive to say we don't agree with the things he's saying and we support Ethan and Ela sure Like yeah that would have been a nicer thing to say Our silence means something It means that we would like to pause this relationship until you figure your [ __ ] out And then maybe we can find a moment in time I don't know how long it'll be but a moment in time in the future where things are a little bit
            • 24:00 - 24:30 easier to to broach I don't think we need to do it right now but you've insisted You've insisted that this is an important thing to address I would have been perfectly fine with you not blasting me on your Instagram story I would have been perfectly fine with you not blasting me and my wife on your podcast twice I would be fine with you not brigading my comment section on my podcast that gets 3,000 views a week because I prefer to not do harassment
            • 24:30 - 25:00 campaigns and instead talk about vampires kiss at least say something like he doesn't work for me and I dis and I strongly disagree and I support Ethan and Ela The problem is the problem is that she doesn't That's the problem That's the problem She she she actually she thinks they have a point That's the problem Yeah So go [ __ ] yourself I agree Go [ __ ] yourself What about your girl this is what I'm talking about This aggression that you're putting out into the world What the [ __ ] do you think we're going to do you think I'm going to
            • 25:00 - 25:30 [ __ ] sit on my hands when you do this [ __ ] like this is nasty We had such a fair response to what you guys were going through We didn't We don't support harassment It's a bad thing but it happens and you're perpetuating it You [ __ ] propagandist lying scumbag terrorist supporter He probably sets up a mirror and jerks off watching himself Dan KKK Clancy has a similar view of Hitler because Dan Clansancy the Nazi [ __ ] anti-semite You You can't expect
            • 25:30 - 26:00 other people to stop harassing you if you continue to harass people Let's think about it on a micro level Have you ever been in a comment section and found someone to argue with it doesn't stop It can literally go on forever if you don't want to touch grass I mean yeah this was kind of like a a a line what happened today that should never be crossed even by like the most cynical toxic people It's going to have ramifications in
            • 26:00 - 26:30 terms of how how I conduct myself in in terms of these fairweather friends who are you know so happy to be friends as long as they're getting something out of it Ethan that is a rich thing to say Like you you're the H3 podcast Okay there's a lot of friends of the show There's a lot There's even more fairweather friends of the show Let's not Let's not get into this [ __ ] Okay that is so bizarre and insulting to
            • 26:30 - 27:00 suggest that I was only ever being friends with you to to get something out of it No I'm friendly with you And I'd say I'm a light friend because it's been pleasant hanging out with you I've enjoyed your content over the years And as of late it's gotten really [ __ ] shitty Yeah So go [ __ ] yourself I agree Who else who else do we want to burn today who else do we want to burn today you're making it so [ __ ] obvious that
            • 27:00 - 27:30 this is your like this is your emotional dumping ground It's horrible This is not what podcasts are There was a way to approach this to say like "Oh yeah We we feel hurt by you guys not saying something you you've decided to do the extra thing and attack Now in fairness I am attacking back but I feel very insulted and I feel defensive and I feel like I am speaking up for a lot of
            • 27:30 - 28:00 people who have problems with you and a lot of people who have been on the receiving end of your harassment It's so easy to be anti-racist Everybody's anti-racist Racism is the worst thing in the world right we [ __ ] hate racist [ __ ] racist microaggressions The minute that they actually have to stick their neck out for somebody The minute they have to actually risk something to put themselves in in under scrutiny to sacrifice something
            • 28:00 - 28:30 personally to stand up for racism then all of a sudden it's like "Hey I don't want to get involved." And that's drama How much do you care i don't do drama How much do you actually care if you're Isn't that the whole point i realize that Ethan and Ela are more scared now than they've probably ever been I feel like anti-semitism is a thought in their heads now more than ever And it's not completely unjustified to be thinking about that Sometimes you guys are just hurt and you're kind of like dancing around and making very like
            • 28:30 - 29:00 loose poorly thoughtout analogies for something that doesn't even apply to us It's like like me making this video is the standing up for something and it's saying [ __ ] you You're you guys are being bad You know I don't think you're bad people but you are being bad You're behaving poorly You're hurting people I mean go back to the civil rights You think that the people who are like the white kids who are protesting with the black students you think that they were just like not risking anything the those kids who are marching with the black
            • 29:00 - 29:30 students So in Ethan's analogy he's the black student and I'm the white student but I'm the white student that's not you know marching by his side I'm like I'm not doing the difficult thing You're going to have to march on your own black student Marching with the black students and I mean why is it inspiring why is it inspiring well and it's the same thing to bring it back to just because but it kind of is the same thing Like I was thinking about going to Gaza until I found out it's dangerous He's a total performative activist that doesn't give
            • 29:30 - 30:00 a single [ __ ] about the cause Ah it's been performed exquisitly harassing one person and seamlessly transitioning into harassing another one If anyone's been watching for the past [ __ ] year I'm pretty sure they have a good idea of your feelings about Hassan Like people like Ana are the perfect example cuz she's friends with these people She's friends with Denims Denims is streaming this story about our kid I'll show that Yeah getting Jarda from the dog Whatever
            • 30:00 - 30:30 I'm sorry I'll accept this take this position from anyone except you guys You have laid the groundwork for this type of streaming which is watching people's [ __ ] and giving your unfiltered reaction to it Why would you expect Ana of all people to say something to denims okay So by that logic we should be saying [ __ ] to you guys all the time but I have a feeling you guys wouldn't like if we said [ __ ] like that to you all the time
            • 30:30 - 31:00 Yeah we've been respecting you as uh independent content creators You can do what you want We'll treat you as adults Maybe we shouldn't have been treating you as adults She could say so much and it would make her a little bit uncomfortable right it's not comfortable She'll get a little bit of [ __ ] Yeah just for that would be commendable Which kind of And by the way it kind of speaks for itself that saying "Hey their house is clean They're uh you know they're actually good people." Like that that's going to get you [ __ ] That kind of says it all doesn't it there isn't a single person that I respect who would give a
            • 31:00 - 31:30 [ __ ] if I publicly said that Ethan and Ela are great with their kids Ethan and Ela didn't kill their dog and Ethan and Ela wiped their asses or don't have giardia or whatever the [ __ ] the prompt is No one would care The only person who would care is me cuz I'm like why did I tweet this out i'm not tweeting out because I'm not your [ __ ] lap dog That's why I'm not tweeting it out I'm not saying it to my audience because I don't give a [ __ ]
            • 31:30 - 32:00 It's not my business That's in my opinion doing something that's difficult and uh standing by your principles That's the whole point That's what makes standing by your principles admirable is that it it's not always easy Why are you saying that I'm not standing up for my principles when you don't even know what they are i I get like we're we're a little bit past directly naming me so we might have gone off on a tangent If you maybe accepted the phone call and we talked about it you could have asked me "Hey what are your principles?" And I can tell you the way I've been behaving
            • 32:00 - 32:30 is exactly in line with my principles Now we're going to talk about the BDS list We're going to start off with Froggen because obviously this is like as bad as it gets If you're following Frogan that can only mean that you're anti-Ethan Oh this is not a good start Love of the H3 podcast You are following Frogan so that means that you are anti-Ethan Sam Morg Pie friend of the show Olivia Ian Daily Dose of Internet is anti-Ethan Jesus this is [ __ ] up
            • 32:30 - 33:00 Pokemon mane comment etiquette Oh [ __ ] Asmin Gold's in here Asmin Gold follows Frogan No Asmin That means you're anti-Ethan That's [ __ ] up We're going to want to avoid these creators at the top of the list but one tier below them are the creators who associate with them They're essentially endorsing all of their statements You got me you got Ana I think Hassan's in there You'd think that Hassan would be on the top of the BDS list but that's not the case Hassan provides additional value for people
            • 33:00 - 33:30 Ethan can turn a blind eye to people collaborating with Hassan because that's what he did You got to be the lowest of the low to be associating with the Frogs and the Denims of the world To associate with Hassan that just makes sense because he's famous and he's got a massive fan base Also Ethan still follows Hassan on Instagram So Hassan is in his feed and that's showing up right up on us nieces and Idubbbz's feed It's important to remember that this is a living document and people can be removed or put on to it depending on how
            • 33:30 - 34:00 Ethan's feeling that day You have this other tier of creators that exist below Hassan but are still anti Ethan But uh Ethan really doesn't want to bring your attention to these ones because it's kind of unpopular You know a lot of them are famous It's no coincidence that Ethan stays silent when these powerful popular men are supporting Hassan It's because Ethan is a coward He's a bitchade coward I think Ethan has an unreasonable amount of respect for these comedians because they have power
            • 34:00 - 34:30 They're quick And I think he knows that they don't [ __ ] with his ideology But he's going to keep that to himself because the last thing that he wants to discover is that people that he respects and looks up to they don't [ __ ] with him Bill Burr came on It was like the worst [ __ ] show It was just horrible That was like my lowest moment in podcast history We could talk about Bill Burr ruined my life Bill Burr made Ethan go on Lux bro I was prescribed it and it was in my bedside and then it was the Bill Burr episode that made me finally
            • 34:30 - 35:00 start When Stavros goes on Hassan's stream and he mocks your content nuke I actually saw a really interesting video about you man And I don't know that I'm even comfortable being here anymore Oh no It really kind of shed light on you in a way that you kind of kind of like have leftist politics and stuff like that And I actually feel betrayed And so I'm actually just here to let you know this is the last time I'm ever coming You don't fire back because you're coping So you're just going to tuck your tail between your legs and never mention
            • 35:00 - 35:30 on your podcast that mentions everything You're you're bringing up some [ __ ] connection I have on Twitter Someone mocks you on a stream you're not touching it [ __ ] you You're a coward It's just his job It's just what he does for his job You know he doesn't mean it We're actually good friends you know he he makes fun of everyone It's It's not just me right oh also I can't forget about Matt Leeb Matt Leeb is in this like middle tier His valuable association is Rhett and Link So Rhett and Link conveniently are also in this
            • 35:30 - 36:00 category of popular and powerful men who uh Ethan does not want to burn bridges with Although he's sniffing he's sniffing around This guy Matt Leeb he works for Good Mythical Morning Of all people this guy Matt Leeb who apparently is an exe a producer for Good Mythical Morning This guy works for Good Mythical Morning Acting like he's wholesome and he's bringing on somebody that wants to kill my wife or in a video game And I think he should be fired frankly And I hope he is fired He's pathetic And he interviewed a [ __ ] basically a
            • 36:00 - 36:30 terrorist I think Ethan only respects power right now which is one of the reasons I made this video in the first place is because he thinks I'm weak He thinks a lot of these other creators that he's gone out of his way to attack He thinks that they're weak And he thinks they're a target that he can bully he can manipulate he can send lawsuits to And I want him to know that we're not going to be bullied you're being a piece of [ __ ] and we're gonna call you out So here's the button You've got a video and you've got an audio We're hitting both
            • 36:30 - 37:00 [Music] I don't want to go there Yes I don't I there's no point Just leave Yeah There's no need Yeah I don't want [ __ ] How
            • 37:00 - 37:30 pathetic are you don't worry if you don't have it all now I don't like pedophile Like the eye of Sauron I see you I see you out there you [ __ ] cockroach You'll be You'll be living with your parents for a lot longer now dude Uh yes please I want to be a good deal I'm a great Jew please guys Please Noob's fine Yeah I don't think it was that that was fine big a deal of all the things Anyhoo it always surprises me what you think crosses Well I've looked
            • 37:30 - 38:00 at Olivia and she's like "Yes do it." Now let's talk about the button Ethan got this button or kill switch as a response to the controversy with Cutie Cinderella He was not able to control himself in that moment and instead of figuring out how he can change his behavior he spent $20,000 Dan and Ela were like "If we would kill button that right now if we could." I can't change who I am I know That's why That's why the kill button is on its way That's it See exactly He uses the button for
            • 38:00 - 38:30 everything If his jokes don't land he's hitting the button It was being presented as if this the Jordan crying thing I hit the button Why i don't think I needed to but you guys were giving me cricket so I panicked If he's insecure about getting something wrong he's hitting the button But okay you what button for that what on this frame could Ethan have responded to perhaps a country flag that he got wrong maybe I don't know If he goes on a problematic tie raid he's hitting the button before Look how sad But yeah it's not just that
            • 38:30 - 39:00 Like her their eyes are like big I think you guys are wrong on this one I think you guys are all wrong on this one I don't think he's unique in hitting the button I think if all of us had buttons we'd hit the button all the time But if you don't have it you operate differently You think about what you're saying You maybe plan for your show a little bit more You maybe say "I'm not going to have my podcast be an emotional dumping ground for today." You instead say "Ooh it's important that we stay on
            • 39:00 - 39:30 topic." Also the H3 community and Ethan himself use the phrase goblin mode all the time to excuse a lot of his shitty behavior or make it seem less bad I've been diagnosed with goblin mode actually by claiming that what happens is he just gets into this like uncontrolled state he refers to as goblin mode I do not call myself goblin mode Yeah Oh goblin mode Is that what you're calling Tourette's now message to all victims of goblin mode I would like to issue an apology You got goblin mode today You're
            • 39:30 - 40:00 you're goblin mode Look how many times you paused I'm trying And I don't think there's no room for using the term goblin mode I like the idea that you're defending yourself and the little guy by going goblin mode when a big corporation or a big entity is trying to attack you Like if you [ __ ] me over if you steal money from me if you patronize me if you do any of this [ __ ] like you're trying to do to me to treat me like a [ __ ] idiot I'm crazy dude I've gone [ __ ]
            • 40:00 - 40:30 goblin mode over way less But you not thinking about what you're saying not you know reflecting on your behavior not changing your behavior that's not goblin mode That's being a child Let's talk about the crew I think the crew has been put in the worst working environment that you possibly can be for a [ __ ] podcast Every crew member has it bad I like to be around Ethan period would be a nightmare right now I'm standing by every [ __ ] syllable of that Okay what
            • 40:30 - 41:00 she did was abhorrent And by the way just don't listen your critique of her is correct It's just uh you know people people are sensitive about women being called that word And so like how pathetic are you you know what I mean well I'm not assuming his pronouns And [ __ ] all these people Go ahead And I'm not yelling at you I'm just Kelly is a black woman right yes Mazil is a
            • 41:00 - 41:30 Oh Dan come on You're being You're being such a buzz kill Yeah I don't I didn't know Korean I I asked if Koreans are P God you know Dan's in the bathroom Let's just not do this right now I I I asked if Korean people are PC's The one time the button didn't work and we listened to how he spoke to AB without thinking that the internet was going to hear it it was rude It was nasty And it didn't have this caveat of like I'm not mad at
            • 41:30 - 42:00 you It it was it was anger and it was uncalled for Use uh they get ashes to cover most of it We're doing it so awkward and terrible I'm sorry I'm not just like this is what I'm talking about when it's always like we need to get home for our kids Like bro oh no I didn't want to finish it right now I was just talking about finishing Wednesday Friday Is it you guys like "All right I'm taking my hand off the Yeah What okay Well I heard all that Thanks button." And he didn't want to
            • 42:00 - 42:30 take accountability for it He immediately wanted to deflect and he wanted to say that the button [ __ ] him First of all I appreciate the hard work and I loved it and I really enjoy it but it's like every time we do it we It's like the show is what it is And I know I was I was It makes it I was being selfish I No dude That button me dude that Can you imagine that button [ __ ] me over like that the button [ __ ] you AB [ __ ] you Who [ __ ] you you [ __ ] yourself by being an [ __ ] He makes it seem like he's not a tyrant of a boss
            • 42:30 - 43:00 for doing it so awkward and terrible I appreciate the hard work and I loved it and I really enjoy it Dan his producer is constantly clarifying things on the air and making it clear that what Ethan said was a joke Uh Ethan is being overly defensive or he's saying things that are like not true and he's exaggerating People saw that They thought that that was what you searched for my photo So I'm just clarifying Thank you for clarifying I appreciate you doing that
            • 43:00 - 43:30 God forbid It's okay cuz I buttoned it Why because it's not that big of a deal man Just your inability to No no no Hold on Hold on Dan how does it change anything people knowing that we did it It's fun when it's a surprise Okay Well tell me how it changes surprise them on your show Okay All right You know I understand that that's his role and he's you know Ethan's made that his job or Dan's made it his job Ethan leans on it so heavily in the same way that he leans on the button Ethan is leaning on all of
            • 43:30 - 44:00 these people to be adults and look after his behavior and and give all of this emotional and empathetic energy for Ethan but Ethan refuses to give it back to them Also let's talk about AB and Lena two Lebanese employees and you just continue to talk about the conflict like they don't exist It would be nicer a lot nicer for you to shut the [ __ ] up about it You're allowed to do that Hezbollah in in Syria alone killed double that
            • 44:00 - 44:30 much [Music] All right I'm going to move on I just want to play his song talking about bad empanada Ethan doesn't want to change and he wants to bring the entire crew down with him because he's putting them in this position every day right but it's more important that he gets this [ __ ] off his chest It's more important that he dumps We're all familiar with goblin mode Well Ethan debuted a new mode recently And by the way my my ratio is pretty good Like I'm looking at like
            • 44:30 - 45:00 20 goblin modes to one too far Demon mode let's call it What makes demon mode different than goblin mode is goblins aren't really like an intimidating powerful force If the goblin is persistent it can get what it wants When I'm done with the other one the big one that's dropping probably next week My full attention is going to you George Like the eye of Sauron I see you I see you out there you [ __ ]
            • 45:00 - 45:30 cockroach Ethan the reason the internet got behind you when you were being sued by Matt Hos or when you were being sued by Ryan Kavanaaugh is because people saw you as the underdog They saw you as the guy who's defending the common man I'm suing and I cannot wait for you guys to read it At the moment we are writing three complaints for three people You are doing the classic rich [ __ ] thing You have a deficit of friends You have a surplus of enemies You feel really bad
            • 45:30 - 46:00 You feel hurt But you also have a surplus of money So what can you do you can use that money to bully and intimidate people These public legal threats that you're making to fellow creators these legal threats that you're making to people on Reddit on Twitter you're like I'm hurt These people are hurting me What do I do to stop it there's nothing I can do to stop it I'm powerless No you have a ton of power You have a ton of options You have a ton of choice That's exactly what you get for
            • 46:00 - 46:30 being filthy rich is you can do all of these things I'd never want to sue someone for defamation but like at what point like at what point do you kind of [ __ ] have to i mean this is like basically someone calling you a pedophile Be like "Yeah you know Ethan's a pedophile." Dan Clancy or whatever like the CEO of Twitch and pedophile Dan KKK Clansancy has a similar view of Hitler because Dan Clansancy the Nazi [ __ ] anti-semite There are certain things you can accuse people of that rise above to make it
            • 46:30 - 47:00 like actionable which is like wrongfully accusing someone being a pedophile a sex criminal a murderer [ __ ] like that Dan Clancy now on other words he is a pedophile You have so much less to go off of saying that anybody has about based on his looks Just on his based on his Well at least you're self-aware That's 100% a joke I have no evidence to conclude that he is One of the more notable legal threats that Ethan has sent out recently is against Noah Samson I have nothing
            • 47:00 - 47:30 but uh vibes to gain and potentially your money as well Don't worry if you don't have it all now I'll garnish your wages You'll be going to be living with your parents for a lot longer buddy 26 You know what I mean try 46 Noah made a video that was critical of Ethan and other content creators when they're talking about Israel and Palestine I mean the way he's talking about Noah on his podcast is so [ __ ] creepy and weird Is this a new thing this is a new thing This happened during the show Upon initial examination it seems to
            • 47:30 - 48:00 check out and it's not great for for young Noah Can I say that don't say it yet I'll say it So he's a rape So of course his standard I I don't know what he's accused of so I'm not actually going to say but Ethan brought on a former partner of Noah to basically just [ __ ] talk him and say that he's a bad partner But that's all that Ethan was able to extract out of it You are not accusing him of committing any crimes or doing rword or anything like that The accusation is that he's a sleas Absolutely Noah Samson as far as I know
            • 48:00 - 48:30 is not a rapist [ __ ] you to Noah Samson who's not just a liar and a scumbag but also a creep Allegedly Allegedly Now let's talk about the left-leaning Democrat He presents himself as someone like me a left-leaning Democrat who supports basic things The thing that made me start to question Ethan's intentions is that when he was suggested to talk to Sam Cedar a fellow progressive a guy that Ethan respects and looks up to he works for with Sam Cedar at the Majority Report I respect
            • 48:30 - 49:00 him and what they do there He kept saying that it was racist or anti-semitic to suggest that he talked to someone who's within the same ethnic group as him That's why I said yesterday like I urge Ethan to talk to Sam Cedar There are very thoughtful very kind anti-Zionist Jews out there that he could talk to I don't think that I will be able to reach him What's the insinuation that I only listen to other Jewish people you need to talk to my
            • 49:00 - 49:30 pre-approved list of Jews that that like agree with me on everything You know it doesn't matter if they're Jewish dude Doesn't matter if they're [ __ ] Jewish I think most Jews I don't think Jews at large view it I don't think that that is the What in what position are you to even say that is not motivated by myself It's motivated by Jews against anti-ionist Jews Seriously how can you speak for my entire ethnic group i find that really interesting Ethan I don't know what to [ __ ] tell you This is like step one of having a leftist ideology is recognizing our race
            • 49:30 - 50:00 religion nationality all this [ __ ] all shape our experiences as people That's the reason why it'd be better served to have this conversation not with myself but with an anti-ionist Jewish person Why does it matter if they're Jewish because I'm not Jewish And you've said in this conversation that like how can you tell me how to feel about this situation yeah but how is one person of representative of of Jews at large i'm just telling you how Jewish people
            • 50:00 - 50:30 around the world interpret that phrase So yes Ethan on occasion you might be suggested to talk to someone who has some crossover with you It doesn't have to be your ethnicity It could possibly be someone who shares progressive ideology with you It could possibly be someone who is of your same gender I think Ethan understands this concept very well He listened to these women on his show when they told him that he shouldn't be calling women [ __ ] This [ __ ] is intolerable You are such a
            • 50:30 - 51:00 nasty [ __ ] [ __ ] I don't know if you can call her a [ __ ] though She is a [ __ ] She's a [ __ ] You're right I call her a See you next Tuesday You have curious what do Lena and Sam think about it i wouldn't be okay with that Yeah I feel like that it's it's for the girlies even So you guys all seem to be in consensus that it's in poor form I think to respect the women here in the room I I'm going to have to pass on saying that the infantilization of Ethan Klene is [ __ ] nauseating He's not a child He
            • 51:00 - 51:30 is absolutely capable of looking into Hassan learning about his politics interviewing doing loads of things to figure out where he stands He presents himself as someone like me a left-leaning Democrat who supports basic things And for the first time I noticed an inordinate amount of radical hardcore leftists I mean I thought we were social democrats not whatever this was This comment from Hassan really started to sound some alarms in my head I was
            • 51:30 - 52:00 already getting uncomfortable with our partnership I started to wonder if I had any idea who this guy actually is You made how many episodes with Hassan like this guy made a [ __ ] program with the biggest mega leftist on the platform Now he's acting like he was tricked and he was incapable of figuring out what this guy's beliefs were Bro I didn't make the [ __ ] leftist program You did You made [ __ ] what 60 some odd episodes of this [ __ ] for hours talking to this guy You didn't have a problem with any of it
            • 52:00 - 52:30 until Ethan talks about being aware of Hassan's 9/11 comments and then sort of leaves it at that like it was just a joke Actually I think Ethan describes them as edgy moments or jokes You might remember him from such classics as America deserved 9/11 Dude [ __ ] it I'm saying it Now to be clear I knew about all these edgy and controversial jokes at the time we made the show together because who am I to judge no Ethan those aren't jokes right when someone makes a controversial statement like that that's
            • 52:30 - 53:00 not them trying to be funny I can understand why you would conflate the two That is someone who is extremely frustrated and passionate about a particular topic in this case American imperialism and terrorism You could have looked into that You could have talked to Hassan a little bit more and found out what his international politics opinions are Uh but you wouldn't even need to do that You can look at it online You're not a victim You weren't tricked You made 60 some odd episodes If
            • 53:00 - 53:30 you didn't want to go down this route you shouldn't have done it But that was your [ __ ] choice You did it You are an adult When Ethan and Ela are watching Matt Leeb saying that one state doesn't represent all Jews they cannot wrap their heads around the idea No single person represents all Jews I'm just telling you how Jewish people around the world interpret that phrase No single person represents all Jews as no single state represents all Jews
            • 53:30 - 54:00 This is another weird thing Israel doesn't Israel This is a lie that I see Hassan and people pender They say that Israel's going to war on behalf of Judaism They have never I don't believe that that's ever been stated And I don't think Israel ever explains that it's like I think Israel has says it's a place where Jews can go Israel is just a place Jews can go With that slogan we might actually have peace You know if that's all you're defining Israel as is
            • 54:00 - 54:30 a place Jews can go like sure it sounds like America to me Like all right I don't think that Israel said they represent all Jews I don't think that's a stance for like hey we you know displacing Palestinians is all Jewish people Ethan is being so disingenuous here to suggest that he doesn't understand what Matt Leeb is saying Like it's a like he's making a semantic argument Like I don't think Israel has said that it represents every last Jew
            • 54:30 - 55:00 on the planet I don't think Israel has claimed that They're not going to say that their most genocidal behavior represents anything to do with them Okay but what they are going to do is they're going to inexplicably link Israel and Jewishness together So when they're being criticized all of the sudden they have the perfect defense Oh another thing I need to mention There was a tier list It was called the Who Can Say Habibi tier list It was presented at TwitchCon as like a a panel that was
            • 55:00 - 55:30 just meant to be light-hearted and fun And Ethan Klene saw that and he decided that it was anti-Semitic Listen we're going to need your help to discuss and figure out who can say habibi and who can't And also like we have tears We have Arab Arabcoded They ask permission to say habibi you know like like you got like a white guy like can I say it is it slurs and then Love Sabra which is they're not Arab coded at all Now when I first saw this tier list I immediately knew what it was doing I was like "Oh it's a it's a play on the who has the
            • 55:30 - 56:00 nword pass and who doesn't tier list." Granted habibi is very different than the n-word But it is a cultural word amongst Arabic speaking people and uh Muslim people like that is that is a word that's used Hhabibi it means my love Oh no Don't do that Habibi Oh yes Habibi You're my habibi I'm your habibi So yes it's meant to be a fun way that these Arab content creators can express their Arab culture and be proud of it and happy about it because it's not like
            • 56:00 - 56:30 they have massive representation on the platform Making a tier list based on race and nobody has a [ __ ] problem with that Okay you have a tier list based on race Where's the Jewish panel where's the Jewish panel where at the top it says Jewish it's a tier list based on Arab to Jew He's Arab which is good That's the best thing you can be on this That's the best This is a [ __ ] This is racist I will say that conveying information through a tier list is not the most effective thing but Ethan should understand this principle He did
            • 56:30 - 57:00 a white slurs tier list with Hassan cracker I mean you know what my take is We can't put this at as an F Cracker I mean that's got to be at least a D right paleface [ __ ] Pale face I mean again I I think that's an F Hog So hog is my favorite I use it all the time Him and Hassan feel as though they are white guys so they felt very comfortable talking about white slurs on their tier list I think I'm more white than you What do you think i I just I think I'm
            • 57:00 - 57:30 white Like I'm super white Can you understand why Arabs might feel comfortable talking about Arab [ __ ] on their tier list ethan you're the white guy You think you're more white than Hassan i think I'm more white than you So yeah the white guy can say all the things that he wants like cracker but the Arabs Arabs can't have their tier list I would I would put him also an Arab I know Turkish people are different Notice how they dropped the premise almost immediately that it's a it's about who can say habibi and then it's like Hassan Okay actually he's Arab We
            • 57:30 - 58:00 [ __ ] love him He's dope He's Arab Hhabibi is an Arabic word That is an Arabic word Ethan funny about this whole thing is that they say habibi in Israel Again people underestimate just how like mixed Israeli culture is Like we say habibi in Israel Yes Ethan Another piece of evidence as to why it isn't anti-Semitic [ __ ] This is racist If you're not Arab or understand Arab culture at all which is a lot of Americans uh and Ethan Klein presents you this tier list and calls it
            • 58:00 - 58:30 anti-Semitic you're just going to eat it up It's not Ethan is just proving his location on this tier list under love Sabra because he doesn't understand Arab culture There's a lot of Arabs who eat sabra There's a lot of people like me who eat sabra A lot of the times it's all that's in the store and I'm gonna buy it and I'm gonna eat it but it is not the good [ __ ] Like the average Arab American they're going to go in the store and the only option they have is [ __ ] sabra And that that sucks that that's the only option right arab
            • 58:30 - 59:00 communities and distribution facilities are not widespread across the US So what are they left with they're left with a common relatable shitty hummus which is Sabra And what's so [ __ ] pathetic about this whole thing is after he was able to get these Arab creators banned off of Twitch for 30 days he goes on to talk about how bad Sabra Hummus is on his show I don't think anybody wants to prefer Sabra over homemade like restaurant quality hummus You know it's
            • 59:00 - 59:30 what's there like weirdly fluffy It is fluffy Weird I would buy it sometimes and eat it It's not the best The problem is with sabra in my opinion it's it's only good for the first two days For some reason like when you eat this sabra [ __ ] it just feels so much heavier Imagine eating a whole [ __ ] vat of sabra That's in That's crazy I've never lied to us Oh okay Well you hate Jews then I don't And Arabs Yeah [ __ ] This is racist Yeah It's almost like you can have a discussion about Sabra Hummus being a bad hummus without it being at
            • 59:30 - 60:00 all related to a Jewish thing or an Israeli thing He can have that discussion as much as he wants on his podcast because we all know his intentions are anti-Semitic This is what he did He hit his heart hard Uhhuh The Zionism is leading to not accepting other cultures embracing their own culture and instead thinking that that is an attack on you There was this
            • 60:00 - 60:30 incident on the podcast where they were reacting to Cutie Cinderella and Ethan was laughing during it So that ended up being a pretty important wakeup call for Ethan He made an apology video directed at Cutie Cinderella and it was graded by a professional psychologist Dr Kurconda of Psychology in Seattle and Ethan got an A+ rating In terms of a public apology this is A+ Ethan won't stop talking about his A+ rating You know he
            • 60:30 - 61:00 rated my apology to cutie Cinderella a perfect score A perfect 10 A perfect 10 out of 10 Literally 10 out of 10 Go back I can teach you how to make a good apology I'm 10 out of 10 I know what a perfect apology is lady You [ __ ] don't Is my perfect apology in this PowerPoint dude i got a perfect 10 out of 10 This one is actually best apology So Ethan Klein you guys Oh my god I was trying really hard to think about an impactful moment during this video Like
            • 61:00 - 61:30 could I do something that would really wake Ethan up and uh I don't know if this came from a good place or not but I came up with the idea of getting Ethan's grade changed from an A to a B at least So I went to visit Psychology in Seattle I'm not confident that Kirk will change his grade but it's worth trying and uh you know we might learn a thing or two Xander Xander probably get pretty low marks unlike me Perfect score 10 I said
            • 61:30 - 62:00 "Hey Lud no wig drama Why are you such a spineless coward of a person now that you've inserted yourself and your girlfriend into this conversation?" Okay Idubbbz I hear you You're in the room with me right now I hear you I hear your request I understand it I I can understand where it's coming from and I I guess have a policy that when there is a grade for an apology I am just grading that discrete apology as I see it
            • 62:00 - 62:30 without taking any consideration of prior or or future behavior If you're wanting me to comment on the overall behavior or the recent behavior from the clips that you have shown me I believe that Ethan is a good person that and that eventually he will feel sorrow and will feel sorry and will apologize and I will be there to evaluate that apology when it when it happens which I know it will Oh brother this guy stinks
            • 62:30 - 63:00 Unfortunately Kirk did not change his grade but that's okay because this is the internet Anyone can have their own official apology rating system So I'm going to rate Ethan's apology a B minus That's just based on my own feelings and my own rubric When Psychology in Seattle was watching these video clips of Ethan he said that it looks like Ethan could just use a hug Now of course it kind of pisses me off to hear that [ __ ] because
            • 63:00 - 63:30 I'm like "What are we doing what are we saying he needs a hug?" No he doesn't needs a hug He needs a good [ __ ] ass whooping is what he needs I think something that's very important to me in Bringing Back Content Cop is to be fair I think that was something that was not illustrated in previous Content Cops that I think should have been and probably wouldn't have left me with so much regret Ethan deserves all of the criticism that he's getting I think it's very valid but I also think at the end of the day we should acknowledge that
            • 63:30 - 64:00 he's human because he is human and he is in a situation that's making him extremely scared paranoid defensive sensitive and I'm sure other features and feelings In the spirit of Kirk saying that it looks like Ethan could just use a hug I have challenged some of his most powerful haters to put down the haterade and just say something nice and charitable about him because I think he deserves it I just wanted to say that I
            • 64:00 - 64:30 respect that you are genuinely yourself on the internet I think a lot of other people respect you for it as well I think that's a big reason why people were drawn to your content in the first place I think that's a lot of the reason why your employees chose to work with you over anyone else Ethan I think it's respectable that you even began this journey to leave behind the anti-SJW crowd and step into a more empathetic worldview I know it's not easy Ethan Klein I think that when you are being goofy when you're being silly when you are being lighthearted uh and just
            • 64:30 - 65:00 having fun with your friends I think that is when you're at your best So I'd love to see more of that That would be sick I will be reading my letter off because I don't want to sound robotic HJ used to be the sports for good that I used to watch I hope that one day it gets back to what I remember You were one of the inspirations for me to start creating content so all this has stunk I hope you really hear this and I wish you the best I think Ethan Klein rocks a buzz cut pretty good and I think he looks he's got a good choice of facial hair I think it's really cool what he
            • 65:00 - 65:30 did 8 years ago fighting that uh frivolous lawsuit that was pretty [ __ ] up And fighting it you know he changed YouTube for the better And I thought that was cool because I thought it was like he's fighting for free speech you know i also see the dynamic of Ethan and Eli like [ __ ] Like it's really hard to be um a couple online and see people attacking your partner and it's like okay like if you come to their defense that doesn't always help them right sometimes that makes it worse for them And I have been kind of slipping
            • 65:30 - 66:00 into a very unhealthy place where it's gotten worse and worse and I get criticized more and more and I get more defensive and more hold up A feeling of almost infallibility that I could take anything on It led me to make a lot of mistakes and then when I was criticized for those mistakes then I would act extremely defensive and nasty and not really processing them in a healthy way
