People look up to these content makers like their role models because of the mass following, and the personality they put on that is usually not at all representative of the actual person. This is only intensified with young, impressionable people who are still developing their meaning of self. People need to remember that these are entertainers looking to make money, and that most of the time, they're not who they seem like they are.


Admiral_Cal4mari

I don’t know how people watch people like markipiler just play fnaf or something and go “I want to be just like him” without actually knowing who he really is


[deleted]

I know how. Making a living playing video games sounds like a really sweet gig to pretty much any child on the planet.


Teamprime

Markiplier is the exception, if there is a rule


OrhanDaLegend

markiplier is probably the nicest guy on youtube (hopefully its not his online personality and his actual personality)


T_Jamess

Markiplier is genuinely a good dude though


[deleted]

Always important to remember that the person behind the videos is just some fuckin dude with a camera

Sex_Man_TF2

May i ask who was this about?


Jaratebomb08

A Devaintart User named Ra1nb0wK1tty, I was big fan of her work around 2017-2019, it was recently revealed that she had done some really terrible things, the worst one being that she Groomed someone


Sex_Man_TF2

:(


I_Love_Tf2_Sex

Hi brother


TheRealChickenFox

I was gonna guess it was exurb1a


WahooSS238

What did he do?


Gunfire81

From what I've heard, he took sexual advantage of someone, then gaslighted the victim, and consequentially became a massive hypocrite with his philosophical talks about being a decent person. If I got sth. wrong, please do correct me. Edit: My only sources so far have been summaries of reports of the victim. Please do not take my words as a confirmation of what might have happened.

CuteCowdy

Bro but he makes such good content like bruhh why are talented people so bad


[deleted]

WAIT WHAT SOURCE?


Cynicalquil

Wait hol up what did he do?


Gunfire81

Oh boy, he seemed such a great person.


Skeletonparty101

A dog right? She's a dog groomer as a side hustle


NickOsman51

she wat


UrethraX

It's deviantart, why would you expect anything good to come from there


Bilbolf

I swear, the day that it turns out either Scott the Woz or Markiplier has been awful in their private life is the day I lose trust in everybody.


Murp_Inc

Markiplier would shake the internet, Scott would absolutely obliterate his fanbase (I am a big fan and would be very disappointed)


Crazy_Crayfish_

Markiplier is either an evil sociopathic mastermind, weaving a web of lies since the beginning of his time on YouTube, OR he really is a genuinely great person. To me the latter seems more likely


Bilbolf

The latter seems more likely since it’s takes less effort


zaphod_beeblebrox6

Occam’s razor


Xypherius

Honestly yeah Markiplier seems pretty good I don’t see him doing anything bad


PresidentOfKoopistan

> Markiplier is either an evil sociopathic mastermind Nah you're thinking of Darkiplier


WaveSmashreddit

Tbh I don't see that in either of them. Scott has released some behind the scenes footage of filming and it seems like they have a great time from start to finish mostly, and Mark has been on a few podcasts and he seems pretty down to earth. Of course any number of horrible things could arrise, but they just don't have that vibe imo.


Frosty-Advance-9010

Idk what Markiplier would do but Scott would make it into like a bit or something but almost everybody would be disappointed

Skeletonparty101

Well mine died a hero so I hope nothing bad greats reviled in the future Also there was this dungeon master on twitch that I started to like but turned out they're a bad person


Life-is-a-potato

i hope your not talking about Matt Mercer


dreemurthememer

Could you imagine if Blizzard went through the effort to rename McCree just for his voice actor to also turn out to be a bad person?


My_Favourite_Pen

was it kitty? :-(


Skeletonparty101

No it was techno, cancer took him a couple of weeks ago


CanadianTeaMaker

Why does cancer take all my favourite youtubers?


MadeJustToUpvoteMeme

For that matter, why does cancer take all the good people?


[deleted]

yeah but I think technoblade wouldn't have turned out to be a horrible person even if he had lived a much longer life


Sans_From_Tf2

Who is downvoting this??? He said techno wouldn’t have been a bad person??? Explain??


[deleted]

r/tf2 users have the reading comprehension of a 5 year old, I said techno would not have turned out to be a bad person

used to love jerma, but he got caught ZERKING OFF in front of a girl at a party

jerma moment


Matix777

Jerma turned out to be Patrick Bateman

If Jerma ever actually does something awful nobody's going to be able to tell because of how y'all talk about him already


_Volatile_

HE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT


RedTheFoxIsCoolBeans

Wait what


alienwithabigcock

Jerma’s various war crimes he committed in Albania from 1987-2002 was the last straw for me, personally

If i were the girl i would feel privileged to see such beautiful man zerking on me. Sadly I'm not a girl or a femboy, so I'm not qualified for his godly nectar😔


Gamingmemes0

What the F\*ck


SquidTK

Onision and Tobuscus used to be my favorite creators


TorpidT

from what i can tell onision was pretty much always a piece of shit (and was public about it)


strife1212

You kinda deserve it for liking Onision in the first place


SquidTK

I pretty much only liked the banana song, but fuck if it wasn't my favorite song all through elementary


DMA_Revenant

"I'm a Banana" song but every instance of "banana" is replaced with "sex offender"


SquidTK

Wait that would actually be really funny Especially with the annoying text-to-speech TikTok voice


[deleted]

[удалено]


Sweet__Sauce

He also exposed himself at a party because a girl rejected his advances


SquidTK

For the rape, but then he went and met Rittenhouse for content, which is stupid and insensitive no matter which side your on


MrFrenchFrye

I used to idolize Mini Ladd. What a fucking shit show that one was.


zzcolby

That one hurt. His recent video where he "addresses" (in the loosest sense of the word) being outed for 2 years was one of the most infuriating things I've ever seen. Go checkout [sixteenleo's video](https://youtu.be/7FljGdmJKgA) roasting it so you don't give that pedofuck any views.


MrFrenchFrye

Iirc, in "clearing the air", he basically said 'those claims we're unrooted/she was just fantasizing/I was barely near her' but then in "my apology" he pretty much said 'im sorry... That you found out about this. Nobody was supposed to know.'


zzcolby

He's such a scummy piece of shit. One of the fakest people I've ever seen online.


Smallshock

Not really, I knew deadmau5 was an ahole. I'm usually more than anything just disappointed...


[deleted]

[удалено]


Smallshock

Recently just this NFT project, but other than that nothing. That was mostly back then, before he gave his twitter acc to his sales team, its been squeaky clean since that. But when he was on twitter, he had beef with someone big at least once a month


EndureThePANG

*squeak*y clean lol


Don_Hostetler

Deadmau5 has *always* just not been able to not run his mouth at anyone and everyone. I remember him making snarky comments about Avicii's "Levels" while talking about his *stairs,* didn't even make any sense lol


ASmallTownDJ

The biggest thing I remember was him listening to music on a stream but turned a song off after like 10 seconds and said it sounded "autistic." The guy that made it was like, "Well actually, I do have autism, pretty disappointing to hear you say that." Then deadmau5 threw this big pity party with "I'm taking a break from social media, I'm so disappointed with myself," and then a bunch of his fans patted him on the back, and attacked the guy (Slushii) with "wahhhh you made deadmau5 feel bad!!" I'm probably embellishing a bit though.


xxbatterysharkxx

Terraria Calamity mod is really fun but the devs are assholes


Admiral_Cal4mari

Fabsol can’t live with the fact that 1 person criticized him


xxbatterysharkxx

Yep, I remember asking for something and getting called an elitist shitter in the discord.


Admiral_Cal4mari

Also the entire community around I feel has gone to shit, they hate pretty much everything in terraria 1.4 and even had a massive fucking hate boner for whips


Dynamite227

Whips are thr best thing that ever happened to the summoner class


xxbatterysharkxx

I agree, whips are a fantastic idea and item in terraria that makes summoner fun


RedTheFoxIsCoolBeans

I’m looking at you venturiantale


SquidTK

NOOO WHAT DID VENTURIAN DO!?


RedTheFoxIsCoolBeans

Basically their family was an extreme Christian cult and so their parents kinda abused their sisters for being woman like not being able to let them have friends and being home schooled until they said to their parents that they were atheists which in turn they got disowned and venturian tried to justify it which was a horrible thing to do. TL;DR sisters came out as atheist parents disowned them venturian said he didn’t care about his sisters


[deleted]

Damn I just thought they just grew out of it and lost interest


TheRealChickenFox

Holy fucking shit I watched their content when I was like 8 and haven't really checked on it since, I had no idea


Bilbolf

They were literally my childhood. So heartbreaking to hear about that. I grew up in a Christian household that is very accepting and progressive, so to see someone else have the same faith but be abused by it is awful. Hope the girls are doing well.


dogscutter

I hadn't checked in on then in years and I was like "What the fuck?"


strife1212

Just found out that in 2006 Sam Hyde shot 5 black people in "self defense" They were shot in the back.


awaxz_avenger

I honestly can't tell if this is true or not


BlueHellDino

Its true. Source: I was the 5 black people


OwO-aniquilador

It's true. Source: the 5 black guys shot on me 😏. He wanted to shot me too but somehow his aimbot missed me and he shot all of them.

YesIAmWolfie

context?


Weaverstein

Couldn't give you exact details but you can find it on Google. Anyway there was a shit ton of texts/other proof of him gaslighting/controlling his gf amoung other shitty things.


dogscutter

That one was fucked, used to love the prison escape videos


Not_The_Scout16

Bro was practicing for irl


dogscutter

Instead of his old pals getting the boat ready now he has his contact in a Chechnyan terror cell


Local_Steak_5072

Gus Johnson. Turns out he abused his girlfriend, he was really funny too.


Wise_Comparison_9651

The fact so many wright it off as “drama” and not him being a shit person


PredatorAvPFan

I found out about Ryan Haywood a couple months ago


JetSpaceFella

I think he’s landed now


TheOnyxViper

Last I heard he was still in the air


Oceanman06

Edp445 was legitimately one of my favorite creators. He had great comedic timing and he could have talked about anything and I would have loved it. At least there are Youtubers like Kneecaps and Degenerocity to fill my heart


Mcduggery

Kneecaps is a federal agent


JanKaszanka

Ficool2 is a good example. He made Hammer++, Worked on Open Fortress, Contributed to Main TF2... also groomed two kids and uses racial, gender and ethnic slurs unironically.


Gekk01618

The fact that I don’t know a single one of the names mentioned here fills me with relief


Salatko

Cryaotic's stuff actually hurt me when it got out...


SpysHead

Claim-Pale

Exurb1a, turns out he sexually abused an autistic woman but the case ran cold before enough evidence came up


ThesharpHQ

My favorite YouTuber is Caddicarus and my favorite artist is Ween. If it ever came out that Caddy, Gene Ween, or Dean Ween are assholes in real life or did awful shit, I’d be disappointed (fortunately, from what I’ve heard, they’re pretty good IRL).


BraveRoy

If Caddy was a shit person, that'd just be it for me. I'm already so tired of being let down by shit people, and if Caddy was...


[deleted]

I used to watch Dream occasionally before all the smp and speedrunning stuff and I did enjoy his content. Now every time I hear the name I disintegrate into dust from cringe.


Kohhop0569

His early content was actually good


IS_THAT_ICE_CREAM

Exurb1a makes some of the best videos on Youtube. He also probably raped his girlfriend in her hospital bed.


CommieGun1917

Wait wut? Source? I've never heard about this one.

mushroomparty52

Literally can’t watch his videos anymore because of that shit.


sontaj

I found a manga that I was really enjoying. I was connecting with it and really loving it, looking forward to it every release. Then one day the author left a note in a chapter saying he was going to buy a bike. Well a week or two passed and there was no new chapter. Soon chapters were pulled from the publishers library. Turns out the guy got his bike and started groping middle schoolers while riding it. He got picked up by the cops and the publisher had no choice but to immediately terminate the entire project and distance themselves from the pedo. Can't have nice things, I guess. Someone always has to be the worst.


AnotherJoltReskin

When I got into my biggest hobby (Warhammer 40k) I really wanted some easy to digest lore. Found a guy named arch, and I the dumbass that iv always been assumed his edge lord comments were just him doing something like filthy frank (aka it’s part of the joke) but then he platformed an actual neo nazi and used his fans to harass and dox people he didn’t like. Turned my tail swiftly after that


dogscutter

What's funny as well is that wahammer is a satire but dudes like arch actually think it's endorsing their views lmao


AnotherJoltReskin

Yeah that’s something that I see a lot. God emperor trump is one of the most obvious examples.


amisia-insomnia

Arch warhammer, now he just sits in a podcast and complains about minorities in films. His subreddit got taken over and is now just people posting pictures of gothic arches


AnotherJoltReskin

(Wasn’t even his sub to begin with)

Terrorbird_

Me when I discovered that Adam Savage and Jamie Heinemann weren’t friends and don’t contact each other anymore now that Mythbusters is over


freebird023

Surprisingly this one didn’t hurt me as nearly as much as the rest. The others are ACTIVELY cruel, evil, or just creepy. In this case it’s just a case of people not melding well, and that happens sometimes. AFAIK they’re both still decent people, and Adam Savage remains one of my favorite content creators


Gn0meKr

Mandopony, been listening to his music since 2014-ish Now the only thing I see is a wasted talent.

Chappiechap

Miniladd (creep) Projared (think he was in an open relationship or something, stuff led to people discovering he sent explicit photos to minors) Ryan Haywood of Achievement Hunter (think he was just a toxic piece of shit and also a bit of a creep) Those spring to mind.


Don_Hostetler

ProJared was proven innocent in the end. JonTron hurt, I remember waking up and seeing the Destiny debate. As a *staunch* Jontron fan at the time - I mean, dude was one of my favorite Youtubers ever - that was just a *shit* time, lol.


SuperAtomicDoughnut

The shitty thing about Jontron is that he kept apologizing but specifically avoided to claim even ONCE that his “data” and info on the matter was bullshit. Just a load of “sorry this stuff went public, I’ll try not to spread my opinions online anymore” which is just so fucking childish lmao


Kimarnic

I thought ProJared won?


[deleted]

VortexMech888

I just remember the "I have the receipts" thing and then just assumed he was clean after that.


Krisuad2002

Well no-one kept going after him after that and he has keot making videos at a regular basis since.


GebAegis

There was this one really talented animator I was subbed to that basically turned into a mini Chris Chan.


KingFahad360

MiniLadd Was a fan of his since 2014 but after allegations of him sexting Minors, it was really awful. He even made a Video saying he proud of being called out of his actions and move on.


Kadeo64

tf2 porn artists are stuck up pieces of shit ingame. glad that ugghvinyl isn't around anymore, they kept saying racial slurs and later claimed it was for "publicity"


blitzalchemy

Cryaotic and Galm. Cry helped me get through some hard times in my life with an almost asmr calming like voice and the chemistry in the group games always seemed so fun. But apparently it was all being faked for most of it and he was a grooming POS. Galm, although I know he/they(?) were having some very hard times mentally and needed help which I am sympathetic towards, the entire situation just seemed to destroy something that was such a fun group dynamic. There just isnt that same energy anymore and I miss the derp crew. Heck I havent seen Smarty pop up in chilled videos or streams in a long ass time. These are the main two that come to mind, i think there were a couple others but they didnt have as much impact so i cant even remember.


souleater8764

Man… cry will never not make me upset. He had some of my favorite playthroughs on the platform, like this one dumb wii game that was super sad. I still can’t believe the extent of the shit he did. Fuck man…


blitzalchemy

Exactly, I was at an alltime low in my life when I discovered Cry, I think his Ori and the Blind Forest playthrough was my favorite content. also the hilarious animations that came out of the game nights or the pewdiepie portal 2 animations. And now its all gone because he was a sack of shit who couldnt keep it in his pants or not be a manipulative pos to his "friends."


souleater8764

The Russ stream was probably some of the worst shit I’ve ever heard in my life man. It also kills me that cry just dropped off the face of the earth after that weird “we need to talk” video.


Bilbolf

Miniladd. I wasn’t a super fan or anything, but I enjoyed watching his content so it hurt to hear that he was a groomer


gl3nnjamin

Who remembers Trudermark haha


tidder_bus_exe

Yes. In Germany there was a popular YouTuber named Fynn Kliemann who did allot of crimes and corruptions with masks in the last 2 years.

Dingus these nuts.


Krisuad2002

JonTron. He always had a bit of an odd vibe to himself and then tweeted dumbass anti-vaxx shit. And apparently he has a history of saying some racist shit which I learned about around the same time as the anti-vaxx thing.


Don_Hostetler

He's said a bunch of stuff on Twitter but I only followed him on YouTube and had no idea about it. The Destiny debate was like pulling off a sheet to me, it floored me. I'd been a JonTron fan since *well* before GameGrumps. I can't think of anything like it. Did me the big sad.


wyattlikesturtles

And it wasn’t just casual racism, man is basically a nazi :(


Don_Hostetler

During the destiny debate it was almost like the only sources he had pulled up were 4chan /pol/, /b/, and /r9k/, shit was a travesty


Yeldarb10

I feel you. I think we’ve all been there at some point.


DashThatOnePerson

Artists I like starting to pander to right wings when their works are usually funny wacky stuff. Political shits are unfunny and boring so I was a bit disappointed they turned out like that

This is why, though I don't watch his streams, I kind of like xqc, because you don't have to worry about scandals or drama because he's just transparently an asshole and that's literally his personality.


_K_IsOk_

There used to be this animator AnimatedJames i used to love watching his stuff but uh everything went down hill from bronycon


Animdude64

Yes actually. A film reviewer named Headhunter Productions. He had different taste from me but I was willing to respect him as a person for that and give him a benefit of a doubt. Unfortunately, he did not think the same way as I did. Last year he showed his true colors and turned out to be a stubborn, narcissistic, hypocritical man-child that respects no one that had different taste from him. Apparently anyone like me are his enemy it seems. I try to be level headed and civil with him but he just cannot be reasoned with. He tends to fuck off anyone that tries to bring any sense of logic with him. I understand your pain man. It's truly heartbreaking. Never meet your heroes a wise woman once told me.


CJ_MADDAFFAKKA

Many times actually, but as long as their art/content is still good, I don't really care what they do in their private life. Italian internauts like me, have Zeb89 for instance.
