I remember the JonTron scandal from 2020, it was social rather than criminal. I like a lot of what he creates and has created, so I really don't care if it reflects who he is as a person.
Thank you for the information! Boy, seems like a lot happened in 2020 for some reason.
Stress, the rapid and sudden shift to everyone being part of an always-online culture, and the ongoing social disruptions. In all honesty, I believe that most of the online social / wrongthink scandals that happened in 2020 & 2021 would still have happened, but they'd be delayed and hit smaller niches.
The lockdowns were accelerators, not always direct causes. But we did all go insane.
... Short trip.
Fair enough yeah.
go?
