MY BRUTALLY HONEST RESPONSE TO ALFIE DEYES

A couple of week's ago Alfie Deyes uploaded a video to his channel entitled "Real & Honest Chat With ImAllexx & iNabber" in which Alfie, ImAllexx & iNabber discuss all of the criticisms that Alfie & Zoella have undercome in recent years by the commentary community here on KZbin. As a creator who has been at the forefront of many of these criticisms, I felt it would be justified to respond to this video in complete open honesty.
Zoella's advent calendar, The Pointless Book, Hello World are all discussed in this video, so... get ready for the shed video of all shed videos.

"only 4 grand" is he having a laugh, that's how much i get for a student loan, that's how much i get to live off of from the government for a YEAR, and there are MILLIONS of people out there who wouldn't even dream of getting that a year! there are people living off of £5 a week or less and yet he's like i only made £4000 he is SO out of touch

[@FirstLast-pk2of]

Yoongiismysuga 4 grand is meant to help to pay for rent etc, you’re not “meant” to just live off it for the whole year. Most students have a job, a lot even have 2 to help them through.

[@myg_ho3127]

First Last 1.) have you been a UK student in the last 5 years 2.) nope that's your maintenance loan the literal description of the maintenence loan is what the government believe you deserve to live off of for a year in relation to your parents income, so that's for things other than tuition, living money i.e. rent, bills, food, travel etc. 3.) i am a current student, my contact hours with the university are 30 a week with 20 hours of individual study (assignments, exam revision, dissertation work etc) which it usually ends up being longer than that because they under estimate how long things take. Im timetables to be on monday wednesday thursday friday, meaning i can only work part time work as a student mostly for minimum pay on tuesday saturday and sunday, leaving no extra time for uni work if i need it and also no time for a social/leisure side of my life, it would be work every day with no day off. now whilst possible, extremely difficult, now when (in a personal case) you add in the fact that i also have therapy appointments every tuesday (because it's the only day i'm not in uni) that also takes away tuesdays. anyway the point of my comment was not to point out the flawed SFE system, or even to highlight how little i see of any form of loan, but to instead highlight the fact that "only 4 grand" is a ridiculous statement since for most people in the UK £4000 worth of income for what seems to be one single month (without everything else alfie deyes makes) it would literally change their life, especially considering (as i said at the end of my post about millions living off of even less than £4000 a year) there are millions of people in the UK living in poverty, living off of £5-10 a week, i'm not sure why you places so much importance on the student loan aspect of things, but i guess you just needed a reason to be annoyed/debate/get angry about something or at someone today. have a good day, and i won't be replying to whatever you say next because frankly i believe i've said all i need to say. sorry that my comment seemed to trigger a response in you, didn't mean for that to happen.

[@FirstLast-pk2of]

Yoongiismysuga Yoongiismysuga Yoongiismysuga what an immature response 😂. Plenty of students work a job as well as have 30 contact hours per week and revise and don’t moan about the government not giving them enough. If you’re not receiving a lot its because your parents are earning a decent amount and are expected to support you somewhat. If they’re not then you have to support yourself like an adult and not expect everything to be handed to you on a silver platter. I was a student from 2015-2018 with around 30 contact hours per week, had a part time job on some evenings, still had time for a social life and finished with a 2.1. A lot of people do this and don’t feel the need to complain constantly. But some people love to play the victim and act like anyone that says otherwise is “triggered”. Also, there are not “millions of people living off £5 - £10 per week” in the UK, my dissertation was on benefits and disincentives to work you’ve just pulled that figure out of your arse to make a point. Obviously £4k is a lot to any average person but the points you were making were weak and barely even true. That’s all I need to say :)

[@myg_ho3127]

First Last 1.) i would like to have concrete evidence of where i "moaned", i do support myself like an adult, however i would like to also add that some people can't, people with disabilities for example physical or mental and yes you can get DSA but that funds materials to help you study not living money/rent money. and that's good for you i'm glad you managed it, many people can't, your circumstance is not EVERYONES circumstance and your personal experience does not mean EVERYONE else can have 30 contact hours plus a part time job. nobody called anyone triggered and nobody is "playing the victim". statistically 14.3 million people in the UK are living in poverty i've linked a joseph roundtree study into poverty in the UK : fullfact.org/economy/poverty-uk-guide-facts-and-figures/ my whole entire course is sociology and criminology, i focus on class disability and poverty almost every essay/exam/mini diss and actual diss i have written. so actually those statistics are not at all incorrect, i didn't moan about anything, and you've taken your personal experience and expected everyone to have the same one. i guess if you physically can't juggle intensive uni hours/job/social life then you just "aren't an adult and are playing the victim" instead of maybe actually PHYSICALLY not being able to do those things. wow you're a very angry person huh, a lot of anger toward someone just stating that actually £4000 is a lot of money for a lot of people and saying that alfie deyes is out of touch. ps, if your dissertation was about benefits and disincentives to work, then of course you're going to be biased because that's what you've studied, maybe next time do a diss on the amount of people in the UK living homeless or in poverty due to no fault of their own, look at mertons strain theory for one and see why some people end up where they do, also maybe do some research into the amount of the UK who can't work due to physical or mental disability, look at studies into the mental health of university students and why that may mean they can't do intensive uni hours plus a job plus social life like you can, and then maybe form an unbiased opinion before you start talking like you understand what anyone has gone through other than yourself 😘😘

[@FirstLast-pk2of]

Yoongiismysuga at what point did I come across as “angry” so immature to randomly dot your comment with “wow you’re so angry”, “sorry for triggering you” to try and create this narrative that I’m punching walls over your comment. Literally the tactics of a 13 year old. Plus you linked the source about poverty but might want to look at what poverty actually means in the UK its far more than £5 - £10 per week and something like 60% of people living in council housing have their rent fully covered by their housing benefit. Why do you have this idea that I have a biased opinion just because I don’t agree with certain things you say because of the way you’ve presented your points? I’m not blaming anyone for being in the position they’re in I was simply stating that what you said about the government somehow screwing you with your maintenance loan isn’t true 😂 then you try and flip it and say that I blame disabled people for not being able to work just to try and seize some moral high ground. Not going to bother replying again as its a waste of time as you’re just trying to one up every time rather than actually discuss anything.

[@annoyingmultifandomname2217]

I feel like the whole “chat” was an intimidation game, taking advantage of how much younger Alex and Fraser are compared to Alfie. Alfie’s body language is aggressive, uninviting and does not welcome people to offer an honest opinion. I don’t blame Alex for backtracking, I’m around the same age as him, and I’d be shitting myself if I was in that situation, across from a friend, a man between us, yelling, punching and slamming the table, visibly angry and trying to scare me. That’s not comfortable for anyone. I think the main reason he chose Alex is because Alex is almost known for being awkward and shy, so to putting him in that situation is a perfect recipe to help Alfie.

I feel sorry for Alex, I really do. Hes shy, not good with confrontation, he has a bit of anxiety and he has a very low self esteem. On top of that, he "knows his place" And with that I mean, that he knows that he has less power than Alfie (money, success, etc), is younger than him and has a relatively new channel (in comparison to Alfie). He automatically has a tad bit of respect and is intimidated by Alfies success and by Alfies passive aggressive mannerisms. He came in as support and expected to be the hand in the background that's holding Fraser up, but ended up being the main target and being attacked relentlessly. Alfie fucked them up and did them dirty with his strategy. Fraser however expected to be the main target and was pleasently surprised when he saw that he wouldnt be the main target. Therefor he gave better answers since he was better prepared and was payed off gently. I feel so damn sorry for Alex, he didn't deserve that. And I feel sorry for Fraser since he's a good person and probably didn't expect the meeting to turn out like that and then to not be in the position to defend his friend out of respect and the power imbalance. Alfie is a proper scumbag

[@AranelEruvyreth]

@Wucken Fasted The problem isn't that he's shy, it's that he wasn't given a chance to prepare because he wasn't expecting to be debated with because that's not what they agreed upon. Alfie is the one who flipped the script on them and turned it into a confrontation instead of a conversation, he constantly interrupted Fraiser (who he was supposed to be talking with, not Alex) and kept targeting Alex. As someone with anxiety myself, I am totally up for a debate if I have time to prepare, but if I were put on the spot like that by someone super aggressive when that wasn't what I agreed upon, yeah I will start to clam up. But that doesn't mean I'm incapable of debate or shouldn't get into it. Even the best debaters will have trouble if they go into a debate unprepared. Alfie cornered them and turned this into something that wasn't initially agreed upon and he knows damn well that he did it with how prepared he was.

[@abbiejohnston903]

That’s weak. You can’t go criticising people behind a camera then get scared in real life it’s called being a coward. Don’t say shit about people that you can’t say to their face. Alex is a coward for not standing by what he said. Doesn’t matter if he was targeted, his criticisms were mostly good (apart from the merch) he just needed to believe himself and like I said, everyone knows if you can’t say something to someone’s face then you should really just shut the fuck up and not be a person that can only talk shit behind people’s backs, it’s a terrible trait to have.

By Alfie’s logic at the start. I cannot judge hitler because I didn’t meet him, I must instead be neutral on him and so should the rest of the planet

that's two completely different things.

[@danimenfer]

ivy obviously he’s not like Hitler and the person making this comment is not really implying it, but by saying it’s unfair to criticize someone you don’t know when they’ve publicly messed up can be compared, you don’t have to know someone to recognize they made a mistake and to critique them for it

[@StayWithMeStory]

because hitler was a man who was a murderer. when it comes to evil spirited, phobic & etc. you can easily judge. but slamming someone for selling books, merch & earning money & one or two times doing something ignorant (though at the time not realized) things, isn't a big factor as to someone's character. nowadays there's a cancel & woke culture that wants people to stand up to their mistakes, but even after that happens there's already a trend to shit on them and hate them for everything they do. in reality, you don't know alfie, you don't know jack, you don't know any of these people. a ten minute video is easily manipulated & let's be honest a lot of situations about alfie, zoe & many other people have been taken out of context and out of nothing turns to the next world problem.

[@danimenfer]

ivy Your missing the point; he’s not criticizing or comparing him to Hitler, just pointing out how flawed and stupid his logic is because it’s not really applicable, and he’s proving his point by using a hiperbole

ivy Completely missed the point.

[@ravenismygod]

As a published author I want to clarify something Alfie said - he may have 'only' received £4,000 for the book's advance fee, but that's just the upfront money you get before publication. Once it starts selling and makes more than £4,000 in profit, he'll also get royalties on top of that, aka a percentage of each book sold. So he probably earned a shit load considering how well it sold. Conveniently he didn't mention that... ha.

[@ojwetc]

It was a very smart PR move, it appeared Alfie was addressing the subject but with people who also had their own eyes firmly on their own image for their own brands and that showed in how they answered if you contrast some of their recent comments in the recent work they have done. Personally think iNabber came out of it better out of the 3 purely for holding some integrity, never really watched his content before but he made his points where he felt that he didn't agree even if it was met with being spoken over half way through, which if you were a smaller KZbinr on a larger channel you'd conceed this to avoid the footage just being cut.

love them saying "only" £4000 like that isn't MULTIPLE months pay for a lot of people, like that isn't months and months worth of rent for a lot of people. christ, i'd love to get £4000 for doing the bare minimum of work in "writing" a shite excuse for a book.

[@morethangreens]

Yep and that was just the advance! Once the advance was made back, he would have earned more profit but of course he didn't mention that...

[@showmoke]

@@morethangreens - after the initial burst of sales (which is where the 4 grand figure came from), the rate of sales for that book dropped off dramatically and once a lot of his fans had purchased the book, relatively very few books would have been sold. Today, I would have thought that the sales of that book would be tiny.

[@indiatresadern5534]

I work for the NHS. £4000 for me would be 3 months' salary, and £4000 for me would cover 11 months' rent. Sickens me that they don't even realise that £4k is actually a hell of a lot of money to some people, and we work damn hard for it... Unlike some who blatantly rip off others' work (cough wreck this journal cough)

[@morethangreens]

@@showmoke He said the £4K was his advance, which means he got that before the book was even published. I don't know how much he made from the book but I find it hard to believe that he wouldn't have made that £4K back and then some pretty easily. There was a second (maybe third?) book as well so he would have made a pretty decent profit overall. It just seemed a bit disingenuous to mention the figure of £4K as if that's "all" he made from the book. But in any case, I agree with Jack's point that it wasn't about how much he made, it was the fact that he obviously did it for the money. I don't have a problem with KZbinrs trying to make extra money but in this case, the product was terrible and a massive rip-off of another book already on the market.

[@Ela11432]

I think that’s fair but 4000 is also less than what people assumed he made when they claim he got “massive amounts of money.” Like I would assume he made hundreds of thousands from the book, so hearing he made “only 4000” is a surprisingly low number relative to what the expectation of what he made was.

[@cheesecakejuja]

wow alfie is annoying. inviting people then not letting them speak because you're afraid they have a point? thanks for the video jack, 100% agree with you. also i'm kinda disappointed by alex.

[@ethandalton6480]

Reason they didn't soeak is because Alfie is in love with his own voice

[@fi1417]

He basically invited them so he could intimidate them into agreeing with his points and essentially pull the commentary channels into a tighter, more direct group and dissect them to pull evil from them.
