#I don’t lurk on the internet during every waking moment of free time anymore

[referencees]

Hbomberguy’s new video was very depressing for me. I know many of yall have been sitting here talking about how none of this has anything to do with you bc you don’t watch the creators he called out (congrats on completely missing the point btw) but I DO. I watched basically all of the people he spent significant time on.

On some levels, yeah I’m disappointed in myself for not even HEARING about any of the past controversies around plagiarism most of them had before his video. But also….I have a full time job, I have bills and responsibilities that I didn’t have when I was 17 and getting great entertainment out of YouTube drama. I don’t have the fucking time or energy to sit and vet creators with the thoroughness and determination that Harris has. My lesson from all this is when I find a video that I find insightful or makes me think…..I’m reverse searching that script.
