For reference about the betterhelp stuff, Phillip Defranco had another response posted almost 2 years ago. In it he states he never felt betterhelp was a scam but that it suffered from very poorly written Terms of Service that have since been corrected. He also clarified that he distanced himself not only to stop the hate mob, but also because he felt uncomfortable profiting from people signing up after seeing negative testimonials. According to him, he personally went up to their offices and interviewed them to do his due diligence and also actively still uses the service today. This response was not sponsored.

[@HeyFella]

It’s so frustrating listening to you guys pretend Ian just had this magical change of heart and that there’s this organic growth that everyone “good” inevitably goes through. The most progressive comedians in the world well into adulthood used to make jokes 10x more transgressive than anything idubbbz ever said. The most popular comedy podcasts on patreon right now are also making jokes just as “problematic” as the stuff he used to make on KZbin. CumTown now titled The Adam Friedland show for example has a host who says slurs every other episode and they’re arguably farther left than Ian or Ethan (H3H3). It has nothing to do with “growing up” or learning. Ethan for example was in his 30’s when he started. These guys are just shifting with the financial incentives that come with their main platform of choice. If anything people were more sensitive in 2017. You can be a progressive person on the real material issues that matter and still find humor in the stuff you’re not “supposed” to say. A lot of humor is built off discomfort. It’s the release of tension. I’m firmly on the left, but I will never give into this false dichotomy that being “edgy” (whatever that even means exactly) requires someone to be some reactionary stagnant child stuck in a phase and that in order to be a good person you must divorce yourself from it and “grow” theoretically into the clean standards of corporate HR departments. Nerd City was the only one talking any sense on this subject.

[@fart63]

They literally said it was not an instant change. You’re rambling and I can’t even tell why

[@RavagersPrey]

Idubbbz entire success was from him criticizing people and being "mean", its what built his channel without Kickstarter Crap and Content Cop he would be nothing. If he truly "regrets" his actions he should donate the all wealth he made off of those videos to charity, permanently demonetize the videos, retire his channel and leave youtube.

[@Yohoat]

You have it all figured out! You realize that when you have income, you tend to use that money to pay bills and feed yourself, right? Do you you think he has a big vault that says "problematic money" on it, waiting to do something with it?

[@RavagersPrey]

@@Yohoat If you can't live by your ideals then it's time to either rethink them or change your lifestyle. If what he did in the past really bothers him, if what he did truly keeps him up at night then giving up his wealth and downsizing shouldn't be an issue, as that wealth was obtained by in his view unethical practices.

[@MemberRoach]

Idubbbz has two kinds of fans. The first group are the people who watched Bad Unboxing and Content Cop. The second group watched stuff like Human Cake. It is impossible to keep both of these groups happy. There will always be a group of fans who shit on the creator for changing the content. It's the circle of life. Also, the ancient civilization stuff is mostly true. I won't say it was the cone heads, but it was probably the cone heads. Also, history of the world is shifted by about 6000 years, give or take.

[@TBHpodcast]

The Crystal coneheads they don’t want us to know about, doctors hate them

[@christophernoneya4635]

The problem that you touch on near the end is the issue is unfalsifiability. I can propose any number of ideas, but many cannot proven to be false. This does not mean this is true or false, this often just means there is no evidence to contradict (ie no proof). If I say that the reason fish bite hooks is because impercievable ghosts alter their decision-making and my evidence is only that fish bite hooks, thats an unfalsifiable statement... you cannot prove this wrong it needs to be proven right in the first place. Sure you could point to fish biting hooks, but that is not evidence of the ghost theory, only of the fact fish bite hooks. The secret ancient society idea is quite similar. You have an off-the-cuff statement that actually there was an ancient hyper-advanced civilization that constructed all these ancient structures... his evidence simply being these structures exist. Thats not evidence of a secret ancient civilization, thats evidence of buildings existed. They have not proven these must have been made by atlanteans, only that they were at one point made. The institution of science relies on proofs either for or against ideas. If someone makes an unfalsifiable statement... they cant really do much more than show what we do actually know and pokeholes in whatever evidence they may be... but an unfalsifiable statement by definition cannot be proven wrong, only unsubstantiated. Unfalsifiable statements are shields to hide behind to avoid criticique and share ideas that cannot be proven.

[@christophernoneya4635]

and for evidence that the pyramids were probably entirely reasonable structures to be made across the world... take sand then pour it on the ground and see the shape it forms, a pyramid. Then try to find the best shape to stack for buildings... its probably a brick. Now try building a pyramid out of as few bricks as possible... it resembles all these structures. Theyre complex in terms of effort, and likely required experts from their time but they are hardly complex ideas you need fed to you to ever come up with... its kinda just the logical conclusion to how to make something tall, stable, and relatively efficient with access to only relatively simple materials.

[@shunsuikyoraku5428]

As a 30 year old, I still love the old edge, watch the boys for that reason, or go back and watch Frank Max Ian ect. But I love Ian's new content too, and this is my favorite podcast, so idk, there's a balance I suppose.

[@TheCalmPsycho]

I am in the same boat, a lot of it comes down to context, intention, and environment. I firmly believe that it is better to laugh at stupidity than it is to allow stupidity to control us through fear and anger. Edge when done specifically to be an asshole isn't fun for me but I like laughing at the person doing it because they are genuinely stupid, but edge when used to make fun of the absurdity of itself is a lot of fun and it is moreso because the person is laughing at themselves too. But you do need the right audience and understanding for it too. An audience like the public that doesn't know you at all isn't going to go down well. And an audience that is too young won't be capable of understanding any nuance. I do feel bad that Ian blames himself for creating his audience, he isn't responsible for what other humans choose to perceive, believe, and act like. But it is also egotistical to believe that he had that level of power over other humans. It was probably more likely that parents neglected their children and didn't raise them properly. If a parent neglects their kid and the kid watches the human centipede, is that the human centipede's fault, or the parent's fault?

[@Gerald-of-Riviera]

​@@uranussmasher Part of it spread from her online persona before her and iDubbbz were really involved with each other, because despite what they are now both of them were not exactly the least toxic people to come across. Of course that's not everyone though, you have those who genuinely hate her because they believe "she changed Ian" for the worse, which could be partially true but that's not their job. Before Leafy was gone and Ian went through the cuck drama, Leafy posted a video of Anissa practically wanting Leafy on Twitter (real or not I'm not sure.)

Yeah I think most of the hate Yoko got was people who either didn’t like her artwork because it was modern art or people who thought she broke up the Beatles. The art group I can at least understand because art tastes are subjective, even if that’s not a good reason to dislike someone personally, but the Beatles stans are just completely incorrect. There was already conflict within the band over creative differences long before Yoko arrived.

I've seen the interview with Ian they're talking about. He sat there like a child while his girlfriend talked for him. It's pretty obvious to everyone who isn't a Twitter dweller that she's pretty much taken over his life.

[@dsy457]

Don't get this idea that Ian's wife "took control". He ceded the control to her. He lets her speak on his behalf because he couldn't be arsed to do it himself.

you guys really overlooked minuteman's videos he gives overwhelming evidence and explains every single flaw in grahams documentary and interviewed other actual archaeologists (including ones graham interviewed) have explained the exact problems with the documentary. Also Minuteman is an actual archaeologist and has been researching for years while Graham has little to no experience.

[@buriedalive3192]

Nerd's Miniminuteman slander is ridiculous. He uses data to disprove Graham Hancock's claims, he interviewed the archeologists whose words Graham twisted, he gives reasons why Grahams non disprovable claims aren't the only possible conclusions, etc.. It really feels like Nerd didn't find his humour funny, and got angry because of it. The monolithic structures not being able to be made is also bullshit. We know how they were made. They don't surprise us. The problem with the claim that the locals didn't build them is the start point of the theory. It isn't that these structures really couldn't be built but it's an assertion that the locals must have been "too primitive" to construct these. (Which Nerd echoes in this video) This isn't inherently racist, but it has its roots within racist colonial era ideas, where colonisers couldn't believe that the "lesser men" could build these. In reality, these structures could be built with very "primitive" methods. (Although they were built by pretty knowledgeable craftsmen) They only need rudimentary physics knowledge, some craftsmanship and a whole lot of manpower and time. A skyscraper could also still be built without cranes, you would only need some thousands more people working on it. I love your usual takes Nerd, but this end part was kinda bullshit, and uninformed. Not like being informed is something that is a core part of podcasts, but still.

When I four years old I already knitted my own anthro plush dolls, come to think of it I done a lot as a four year old. I already knew how to read and write. I was when first murder when I was five, it was the gypsy mafia era, they were also the old kids in my neighbourhood so I guess my only potential for friendship, of course they’re all dead now or in prison just like my old friends who died from old age. Old people were my best friends because I did t lime the violence amongst the Gypsy kids their leader was so cringe himself MacGyver after a damn American tv show. Later on they smashed my giant Lenin statue head in the back yard with a sledgehammer, then stole a bunch of stuff and declared my yard is their territory now, well I snitched out them to their Dad so he whipped them with a spiked belt right in front of me. We have all kind of animals enter my yard, moles, beavers, foxes, lizards sometimes, wild dogs, and we had weasels too, they left their baby and I grew it for a while, gave it milk though a straw until it learnt to drink out of a plate, that was until out drunk grandpa came back from the village. I entered the house saw the weasels gone and my grandpa sleeping in his own urine. I grew bunnies too, but my dad did stuff to them. He fed them too us and lied that the weasel got them, we didn’t have much food apparently.

Nerd with the best take on Idubbbz. It’s the lack of self awareness and shitty attitude that annoys his former fans, and people who don’t like how he acts now.

[@bigs5078]

When he called out how Idubbbz was trying to “expose” Sam Hyde cause he was mad for personal shit i was really happy. Doesnt get brought up enough and ive always thought that really showed his character flaws behind closed doors.

​@@XerxesHerpes do you remember on the Sam Hyde Interview Idubbz did when it was clear that the guy doesn't understand irony or comedy anymore I was just scratching my head like, wth happened is this invasion of the body snatchers is the real Ian in a ditch somewhere.

[@Saulgoodman67677]

I kinda agree with Idubbbz though. Fans who's first thoughts when seeing their favourite actor that are screaming out one of their lines in public are seen as annoying by everyone. Now replace their cringy lines with slurs and you get socially inept idubbbz fans who anyone in their right mind would not want to associate themselves with.

[@Zhaelph]

"Changed and grew as a person" "Accepted his wife onlyfans" in the same 10 seconds is not a thing you should say with a straight face dolan lmao.

[@dubmeisterxd2133]

It isn't that Idubbbz moved on, its that he is willing to criticize others for doing the same. He has made several comments that were hypocritical given his past, but going after Sam Hyde for saying edgy stuff is shitty. Hyde described it as 'pulling the ladder up behind him' which is pretty accurate. That doesn't make sense if you are 'just moving on'. I think that he is perhaps moving on, but the evidence points to Anisa playing a bigger role in a lot of this controversy then you maybe think. Banning Hyde at the last minute from creator clash genuinely doesn't fit Idubbbz, and the most recent incident of banning a creator happened because he made fun of Anisa's onlyfans, which just doesn't add up. Idubbbz has definitely changed as a person, but he was NEVER this insecure.

[@Joahhs]

When they're talking about fans interacting with creators. Most viewers do view people who make content or have shown up in things differently. They approach them while they're eating or in confrontational ways. To the fans it's this parasocial thing, they've invested time, in patrons cases money. They want to interact and it comes out in a awkward manner. Not realizing that it's a personality that's put on for the most part. The fans should just say, "Hi, big fan of your work I think it's really great." And leave it at that. Main character syndrome where they believe they're entitled to interactions just because they watch your stuff is so overwhelmingly negative. It's hard for people to actually wrap their heads around oh, this is a person, going about their business like I do, they probably don't want a massive deal made out of them. For example, a creator leaving a theater with friends, a fan walks up and spregs out. Just a God awful situation. They're having a nice time and the awkwardness of the fan interaction is so random that it ruins their time.

something that I've always found weird is how there's a great flood in every religious text, even in ancient native stories there's a story about a great flood. maybe that's the world cataclysm that killed the older civilization

[@ltmcmuffins9499]

It's because religions have always built upon each other in terms of mythology. Hittite and ancient Semitic groups have always had a "God of Lightning/Thunder", and that spread to Greece and Rome and the Norse, etc etc. Honestly as an individual with a PhD in Classical Studies and a specialization in the Ancient Near East, I know all of that guy's theories are incredibly bullshit.
