It's almost like people on youtube are personalities, shocking i know.
How is Ethan not a nice guy, though?
Cause a Youtuber Leafy roasted another Youtuber with Autism (he got posted thousands of horrible messages and death threats) and lashed out when Ethan made a Video about how shitty it was, ended up posting a unflattering conversation between themselves to *get back* at Ethan. Shows how cowedly Leafy was to resort to this and reminds us that people generally say silly things sometimes when *you think* its private between another person.
Shows that Ethan is human not a saint which was fairly obvious but some people seem to take it over the top like with most things.
It's pretty strange how that turned out. Ethan could of escalated that situation, but instead wrote two very well written explanations of the events and why they were being skewed to take advantage of the private conversation. He even released the full conversations in their full context, and refused to go on Drama Alert (thank god).When that happened, a group of Leafys fans decided to outright go for a harassment/dislike campaign of Ethan's latest video, which backfired as well as it was "Vape Nation", his most popular video thus far.
Then all the parody YouTube drama videos that came out of the situation were great as well.

That doesnt mean anything though. They are personalities, but if hitler pretended to be robin williams and did a good job, you would still realise hitler isa dick. Exaggeration I know.
You can still roast people and portray you are a nice guy, like you can take the higher ground. Thats part of the reason people like him is because he comes from a comedic point of being the voice of reason. hes not funny and hes very much not a nice person.
Lets get something straight here, leafy is worse.
Leafy and h3 and other youtube drama people have been doing this shit to increase views. All of their sub counts have skyrocketed since they started attacking each other, this means nothing to them, it was all planned.
Again, HOW is he not a nice person? You can't just say someone isn't nice and can't be trusted and not say why.
You keep accusing him of doing something but you refuse to say what that is.

Sorry I read your post wrong, I thought you were asking how is he a good person.
Okay, its actually very simple, and unfortunately related to the leafy bullshit, and i quote from his reddit post.
"I thought you would never see im an asshole, now i need you to believe im not so you will still watch me".
And honestly, during the whole leafy shit, all I could think was. He is the same as leafy but doesnt say as bad a shit as him. He grills leafy for picking on people, when thats exactly what he does. Fuck leafy, fuck h3.
Its easy to say, well fuck it, these guys are just personalities, but really they represent the worst in us.
So let me get this straight, if I'm speaking to a friend in a private conversation and I say someone makes shitty content that makes me an asshole and not worthy of trust?

Lets put that into his actual words. "They are cancer".
and
people talking to friends are more true to their actual nature vs the person they want the general public to believe. That goes for everyone.
This is a pretty flimsy, shitty stance to take on any person who makes videos on Youtube, and also ignores the other 98% of Ethan's post. Especially the end where he says:
Private conversations are hard to judge, especially when you put your trust in another person who betrays that trust. I've had private conversations with my mother about my sister, and I'd never tell my sister the things my mother said about her, because I knew my mother was speaking in confidence to me and likely venting.
Is this taking into account that saying a channel is 'cancer' is a common way to speak on Youtube these days? I'd openly say that several Youtube channels are 'cancerous'.
Cancer is slang for saying someone is shit.
Leafy makes cancerous videos.
Am I now an asshole and untrustworthy?
[edit]
And I don't see what "true" nature Ethan showed.
He showed that he's someone who shoots the shit during a private conversation?

Him saying he stands by his video does not counteract what he said privately.
And like i said, you cant say "oh well i thought what i was saying was only going to be private so its ok"
yeah
It's YouTube nomenclature. Hell, it's Twitter nomenclature as well.
Haha, wow, okay.
At least I'm not calling people assholes, saying "fuck you H3H3" and saying they're untrustworthy.
I'm glad we have you here, the height of morality, to set us all straight.
If only we could all be you.
I never said Ethan was worse I thought I presented my views fairly without bias. Obviously Leafy is worse the dude fucking made fan of someone with autism shit doesn't get much lower then that.
And I was wondering when I made this OT if some of that drama still lingered.
I shoulda known.

Whoa an actual OT! I'm ready to get goofy
Remember everyone, only you have the power to unshit shitty threads.

I think I'm gonna recommend this one, it shows off a good bit of their editing style. They make other video that aren't reactions, but this one is a nice one:
When Texting Turns Into Sexting
They do a lot more live stuff these days.
edit: Important to note, his wife is the camerawoman and is often referenced and talked to directly.
Really, I'm just informing people that if they don't like a person in a thread you're better off ignoring and moving on than engaging and telling them to leave the thread.

OT is a few hours old and it's already a mess. Nothing fun ever happens in the Sleepycabin OT I made :/ (which Ethan will apparently be on at some point in the future).

I feel H3H3 needs to do more Collaborations with Filthy Frank. Ethan has a werid chemistry with him
I promise to post in your OT a bunch when Ethan guests.

Crazy how many fairly big YouTubers get together and collaborate on stuff. I was surprised to see JonTron and Ethan together, I think the first time was the pizza video.
Filthy Frank too, though I'd already known Ethan liked Filthy Frank's stuff before they did anything together.
They're all funny dudes.
This was the first time I saw one of his videos:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJ-iNSGrBp0
Was hilarious. His sarcasm is off the charts.

The physical comedy can be seriously off-putting at times; the obnoxious retching and facial contortion especially.
I can only watch his stuff in short bursts, lol
I don't understand her purpose those videos either.
She's just...there.

Hilas always been pretty shy and that's why she mostly just does camera work, but she's been coming out of her she'll a lot more recently, like in the "10 Questions" video and the little lets play things they did.
"Hila, say one thing to make me laugh."
...
"CHINA!"

I used to think all reaction videos were trash until discovering this channel. There can be a level of craft in reacting to stuff it just that no one else does it like H3H3 to my knowledge.
