I understand where he was coming from in his original video, but he went about it in the worst way possible. I hope that he can work past this and be better in the future because I really want to see him and his non profit succeed.

@@Justletmesmile You're missing the point. I'm not going to give money to someone unless I know something about them first, and am reasonably sure how they will use the money. Jake's charity is giving to some rando who they supposedly vet. Even if they vetted the person, I have no idea whether the money will go to their medical expenses or not, or whether I would even want to help support that person in that way. Also, the broader point I was making is that it's better to give to a charity that funds specific things rather than giving people lump sums of money to spend themselves. Like if I wanted to help feed homeless people, I wouldn't just go giving out $20 bills to people on the street, I'd donate to or volunteer at a soup kitchen.

"The entire school thought I was faking it." It really makes you ask why. Why were all these people convinced he was faking it? Schools are usually more than happy to give some reasonable accommodations because they can get some extra moola and grants when doing so. If not just the admin, but apparently his teachers and classmates, were convinced he was faking it, then there was something else going on there that he's not going to talk about. We'll never have the real answers, of course, but if a dude has a history of people crying Munchhausen's I'm going to take his 'pain and suffering' every time he faces criticism with a grain of salt.

I feel bad for him, I mean it seems like he really is struggling. I hope his surgery went well. But he knows when you’re sick, you’re given more grace. He is saying what others have said because he hopes to get his validation source back (whether for financial or emotional support).

They’re probably not donating because his charity makes no sense! The wording is vague as hell. “Support individuals with chronic illnesses” like that could mean anything. So basically he wants us to give him money so he can choose people he likes who just like him, claim some nonsense issue like chronic Lyme disease & give them the money? That’s the dumbest idea for a charity I’ve ever heard. It has ZERO thought or effort put into the concept or the execution & he doesn’t deserve any donations.

You know what? fair attempt at an apo vid. Still a cuck but whatever, he tried.

Jake is a master phd doctor specialist at being a victim. He has studied victimology for decades and perfected it. He learned how to non apologize like frouger and still be a victim to dodge responsiblity. Its brilliant. Truly the master we can all learn from.

the lemon comment in the beginning made me think of lemon parties and now my day is ruined 😂😂thanks internet

I’ve been subbed to Jake since the 30k subs mark (don’t come for me I’m a glutton for punishment). He’s still treating his channel like that 30k audience and not close to 300k. He says “I didn’t think anyone would see it” every time he says something stupid.

[@sarahpitt6566]

He says a lot of stupid stuff. I subbed to him when he was small and tapped out right before the ethan kerfuffle. He seems like a well-meaning kid, but also not a great public facing advocate.

He’s just looking for any excuse not to get a job since he’s not able to actually support himself on KZbin. I understand chronic pain: I suffer daily and work a full time job! This entire pathetic paradigm of an able bodied person sucking off society using ridiculous excuses to not work is infuriating!

[@phuck8627]

If he's telling the truth then he's spent most of his life being unable to even walk so not sure about that one. You can dislike him for trying to blackmail other KZbinrs and not accuse him of faking a disability without proof btw. Maybe you didn't know that, idk.

Fellow chronic pain sufferer here - it's possible to understand chronic pain, but impossible to standardize its definition. Some people suffer from mild lifelong migraine - that's chronic pain. Some people suffer from persistent pancreatitis. Some people suffer phantom pains from mild nerve damage. Just because you have chronic pain and work a full-time job does not mean that every person with chronic pain can do so. I agree with your basic point, which seems to be that chronic pain does not necessarily prevent someone from contributing meaningfully to their community. But I also don't think that "I have chronic pain and I work full-time" is a meaningful argument except in very specific circumstances.

[@MrSpartanspud]

The question is, can he work a job. The answer is, yes. He just doesn't want to. Look at his soft doughy little body. He WANTS to be sick so he doesn't have to feel bad about being lazy.

[@keotobloodrose9213]

What... Exactly does he mean when he says he applied for "disability insurance"? Does he mean an actual insurance policy for if he becomes disabled?
