Always record your conversations. And use phones with two party call recording and/or screenshot everything. It is how I have exposed multiple scumbags over the years, and continue to.
If you live in one of those "one party consent" places, buy a phone with which you can call record both ends, because if the abuser does not care about law, why should you? The state will not help you until you present evidence.
I am beginning to feel that LMG, MrBeast, Pewdiepie, all these "big" creators are big pieces of shit that just sanitise everything before presenting us the mister nice videos on YouTube. And just about everyone with a large social presence is like that. I remember the death of that kid years ago, due to Linus, and how that reddit post sometimes surfaces up.
What’s really creepy is, Linus let’s his employees and wife model in underwear to peddle his merch. I mean, what’s the job description there? You are a writer and an underwear model?
So many of these fuckin YouTube content farms are like this. Reminds me of the rooster teeth fiasco
