[@peytonmcendree9796]

Tw: sexual abuse You probably don’t even know about this. So there was a puppet show Shane Dawson did with fine bros who if you don’t know, literally the creator of KIDS REACT. It was called hey it’s milly. It was based off an 8 year old girl (the puppet) who was OBSESSED with Shane and a lot of times would say super inappropriate things such as f*ck me to SHANE and then ask what it meant. There was also a skit I saw where he had another puppet and pretended to r*pe milly with it. Another clip implied she was sexually abused by her dad. It’s all so so disturbing

I only started watching him when he put out the video about his high school friend Going to prison and then from there I found his conspiracy videos. Everything was hidden in plain sight and I had no idea. Unfortunately for my niece, my sister in law isn't a good mother.

[@jessicadepaula539]

same, i was in middle school in the early 10's when he started to get popular but started watching him in 2015-18 bc i've always been uncomfortable with "edge" humor...i knew that his old vids were offensive and i knew about shanaynay, but i assumed (wrongly) that he had apologized and deleted/demonotized the blackface vids with his 2014 apology vid and felt (again, incorrectly) that the apology and promise to learn was genuine. i feel really dumb for believing him, but i think that shane marketed himself as relatable in a rawer sense than other youtubers and was able to get a LOT of people on his side that otherwise wouldn't have supported him. but like, the clips where he's talking to the 12-14 year old girls are fucking sick, i don't understand how that was ever allowed to stay on youtube without being investigated ugh :( way too many onision similarities with these old vids, it's so gross

[@hannah-uz8us]

i watched all the food and conspiracy content around 2015-2017 (before the documentaries) and legitimately had no idea about his old videos. i feel awful for ever supporting him even if the content i watched wasn't the offensive stuff. he doesn't deserve support regardless of the content he makes today.

[@needmusicnow7]

I don't doubt he has mental health issues but it always felt like he played it up to appear quirky. It always felt so wrong to me because I'm sure people in his audience are also suffering from issues and seeing him as a role model thinking either it's ok to not take care of myself if I'm depressed, or thinking if my depression doesn't look like this I must not be depressed.

Moon Boi it was a different time where edgy humor was more popular. I remember liking Shane Dawson a bit when I was younger because when you’re a kid you don’t really realize how offensive his content is.. you just see the whacky characters and over the top skits and you think it’s funny. He uses bright colors and crazy characters almost like how Sesame Street uses the same tactics to appeal to kids, but he overlays it with adult humor and offensive material that gets hidden by the other things. Its pretty much what avenue q does.

[@countessalucard3500]

@@alexanderluna4598 The thing is, I watched a couple of his videos at the time. I was young and honestly did not realise he was using blackface, and a lot of the offensive jokes flew over my head. If I watched it now, I'd probably be appalled, but at the time I honestly didn't notice or understand the problematic elements. It was just a little sketch to watch on KZbin. Although, I only watched a few of them, because I wasn't a massive fan. Maybe I'd have noticed if I'd watched more of them. I always preferred his more 'real' videos, anyway.

I think he is so quick to say something is a joke when I doesn't work in his favor. I watched a video of him when he was creating Not Cool, and when a producer tells him he didn't read any notes/critiques, Shane's all like it's because they weren't given to me but the producers like "you said if I send them to you you'll just delete them" which responds by saying he never said that but another person is like yeah ya did. And he plays it off like "oh but I was just joking." It's his defense to everything he does wrong. "Oh it was just a joke I didn't mean any of it"

[@alih3506]

Saying “I’m not racist” means nothing if your actions don’t support that claim. If you act racist (doing black face, saying racial slurs, perpetuating harmful stereotypes, etc.) you are racist.

[@iTeacupPanda]

A lot of people think " Well I don't believe POC are below me, so I'm not racist. " but there are different forms of racism and people have different opinions so it can get subjective really fast based on different people's opinion. It's why it's such a hard subject. What he did is undeniably racist, but I think if anything he is racially tone deaf. Tone deaf in general. Shock value humor and the things that were popular about a decade ago that were influenced on us to make us think is funny? Like South Park, The Chapelle Show, some Mad Tv skits wouldn't fly today. But, when you've got a lot of Tyler Perry movies still floating around in recent history you can't pretend like that isn't still being appropriated with harmful stereotypes, etc.

[@cheesepotato5753]

Stereotype =/= racism. They aren't the same thing. Don't care if he's gone forever, but don't try to combine the two.

[@felucca]

Yeah probably a bit of both. He clearly wasn't raised with the best of values, so he's had a lot to work out and those things take time. But at the age he is now, he has had A LOT OF TIME to work things out and it's getting obvious he isn't really trying - he'd rather stick to his guns and try to normalize his own behavior. I recently re-listened to a podcast he did in 2014 with comedian Bo Burnham, where they have a conversation specifically about offensive comedy/edgy humor, and they both agree and bond over the fact that they've moved away from blatant shock humor and grown as comedians. (Yes, this was the same year as Shane's movie Not Cool came out...)

And he literally made fun of everyone who wasnt a white man. Every minority and women were a green light for the lowest hanging fruit style comedy. Too many people think these jokes are harmless because the majority tells them against the smaller population and excuses each other. I've only seen one Shane video and it was a copy of his original on another channel and it was a documentary about chuck e cheese. I remember how long winded it was but glazed over this womans story of assault I was like 😐 why is he breezing over a serious topic for pizza? Looking back now I get it, Shane doesnt seem to really like women.

[@arol1644]

Oh So Very Yeah, that makes sense. I think a lot of people saw James as “that annoying kid with that annoying voice, sister here, sister there”. What they didn’t like and were bitter about is that he’s a multimillionaire. So I think it was “well, like it or not, he’s still rich and living his best life”. They probably didn’t even watch him, but were ready to say how bad he was. Disclaimer 😂: I don’t follow his content, but I just wanted to say this bc I agree with what you said.

According to Shane he was humping and ejaculating on his cat when he was that age, so 🤷‍♀️ I wouldn’t expect anything positive coming from him.

[@TayePurks]

Hi so growing up off of youtube, I watched all of Shane’s content as a kid (I’m now 22). When I was 12 and 13 I thought all these jokes were funny too even though I myself am black. I thought how he treated Shana was funny, and everything he said was a joke. But at the same time when I was a child I was deeply ashamed of my blackness. I tried so hard to remove myself from black culture and I didn’t really understand why at the time but looking back I definitely think it’s from the content I was consuming. I’m not blaming Shane in full but it’s the bigger picture of antiblackness within media that he contributed to that ultimately made me feel how I did. Because making fun of black people is just that normal, I didn’t want to be black or even be associate with my own people. When I say Shane Dawson is a monster, he didn’t just engineer a whole generation of racist kids... he also helped to create internalized hatred in black children along with everything else he’s done to children.

[@jasminmenzies9759]

I know it probably did affect him at the time because it happened when he was still in high school and it was a person he thought looked out for him but still... I feel like he didn't really have a right to publish a series about a very serious event and then gain views and money off of someone else's tragedy and life. If I was a family member of the victim I would feel uncomfortable with someone who barely knew my family member making assumptions and theories about what happened. Then again the news and tabloids do that sort of thing all the time. I feel like it might be different for Shane because he sort of acted as if he was more connected to the event than he really was? I don't know if anyone else has ever pointed this out or talked about it online but yeah, I figured I would mention it here.

[@MrJustwastingmylife]

Am I the only one who felt this way? I would be interested to know what other people thought of that series.

[@olivia-mo6np]

PERIODT no ur totally right, that isn’t right

[@imjustanasshlesometimes3488]

Felt the same... But it happened *after* high school which I find even stranger... "Poor me!! I went to high school with a murderer who was sometimes nice to me". It was really tasteless. If I were the family, I'd want that video deleted.

If you say “I’m not racist but” you’re racist. Sorry bud.

[@ozgekonkol8819]

I've said "i'm not racist" before and i know i'm actually not racist. Racism is having a strong hate for a certain race because of false stereotypes and emphasising and promoting false stereotypes about a specific race.

@@ozgekonkol8819 if you are not racist then you shouldn't have to clarify that by stating you're not racist. It should just be obvious you're not racist, like you don't have to say it

[@ItsBri830]

Its funny (but really just incredibly sad) that while making his movie, the actors left when they realized the film Shane pitched to them as a comedy, was filled with things that shouldn't ever be joked about...the actors left because they weren't willing to sacrifice their morals for a role...and Shade didn't understand that AT ALL. Nothing is off limits to Shane, and that's scary. There are things you should never say in any context, around anyone. But he has no limits, anything at all is 'funny' to him. I really hope his family and friends start to hold him accountable..if Ryland is smart he would be moving out right about now.. Anyone who makes inappropriate 'jokes' about children, animals, minorities...anyone who thinks that's okay needs serious help.

Rat Guy I saw a clip of this a couple days ago. It’s a show that the fine bro’s did with Shane Dawson that starred a puppet that was meant to represent an underage child. And they did filthy skits with her while having the puppet act like a kid that was innocent and had no idea that what they were telling her to do was sexual. It’s incredibly disturbing and idk why it’s not being talked about more.

[@icemeoutlikeelsa]

I guarantee you the cat story was true, I used to listen to his podcast all the time and he told that like he would tell any other gross stories from his past. Like how he used to wear his mom's swimsuit to suck in his loose skin after he lost 200 lbs. The podcast was very much stream of consciousness, it wasn't ever anything he thought out before enough to lie about.

[@factsandlogic.8762]

i see edgy humour as mocking your own situation. for example, i'll mock my anxiety, i'll mock my chest size and the shape of my body, but by doing that i'm only "insulting" myself and my experience. however, the moment someone tries to pass off racism, homophobia, transphobia, misogyny, or any kind of ignorant and prejudiced belief as edgy humour when they do not understand the struggles of that group, it's not humour, it's just perpetuating offensive stereotypes and hurting people.

[@fereartem]
