Starting point is 00:00:00 Seems like we have a trap that was laid, and apparently some people have walked directly into it. Hi there. Hi. My name is Ethan Klein. Oh. And my favorite hobby is spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on lawyers. Today, I invite you into my home to share my favorite pastime with you. Join me in creating generational wealth for my attorney.
Starting point is 00:00:25 Wow. Oh, geez. Let me tell you guys a story. about a year and a half ago it's a big conversation called ReactGate ReactGate was a debate going on in the streaming community
Starting point is 00:00:39 about what constituted fair use people like Hassan, XQC and many of the large Twitch streamers would watch other creators entire video on their stream you would rarely add sufficient commentary or even pause the video to speak most egregiously they would
Starting point is 00:00:54 re-upload the entire VOD to YouTube with the same thumbnail, the same title so that they could cannibalize traffic from the original video. Here's what Lemino had to say about this phenomenon. I don't mind people reacting to my videos, but I do mind when they play the entirety of my video. A face cam in the corner or the occasional interruption does nothing to address that issue. My video is still being played from beginning to end in someone else's stream or video. It's neither ethical nor necessary to feature the entirety of someone else's work,
Starting point is 00:01:27 or you know, they could do the bare minimum and ask for permission. Something that none of the major reaction channels have ever done when they've streamed or re-uploaded my videos. We have before, actually, by the way. Oh, not with his videos. Okay, never mind. I was talking about other people. Yeah. But to ask you a question, no, I don't want people to stream re-op.
Starting point is 00:01:45 But everybody would expect that. I'm again, the most ethical streamer. But yes. Download the entirety of my videos. Yes. Now, understandably, this made a lot of people angry. And humble. Yes.
Starting point is 00:01:57 Because why should these content thieves, essentially, get more. views than the author of the video, which in a lot of cases was happening. I mean, people don't like injustice. And this just, we all see this. And no, it's not right. This debate culminated when XQC, one of the prime suspects, called into my show to debate me, in which case I'm sad to report that I was terribly owned. So in that regard, do you care at all about like IP or copyright or like the fact that it's illegal? Does that matter? That it might be illegal? Does that matter to you? It doesn't matter. Well, if flat out doesn't, because...
Starting point is 00:02:34 But that's fair. Watch me full screen cam. Do the fucking warm. Then watch your prime content. Do a week. Do a week of no reaction content and see how many fucking views you get. What is he doing? How did I miss this?
Starting point is 00:02:49 I never watch this. I mean, that's content, man. It's a rich content, at least. The ultimate debate, bro. Wait, so there's a chance that, let me get this straight. There's a chance that a judge is going to see this footage. No, I feel like the chance is actually pretty high. And with the worm.
Starting point is 00:03:11 Nice. I kid ex-QC, but he is not the one I'm suing. That's not even the worm. Despite my criticism, he's not a malicious infringer. But the ones I am suing, you'll see are much, much worse. Now, ironically, after this debate and in the wake of this large conversation, the problem seems to have only gotten worse. You have people like Hassan Piker paving the way of fair use with what's known as chair reacts when Hassan gets up to go to the bath.
Starting point is 00:03:38 Dude, the live Hassan reaction meme, and it's just the chair. I mean, it's just, like, I understand if you have to go AFK for a minute or two, like, it's, it's, oh, right, right? But, like, if you just are just gone and you're just playing a video and it's somebody else's video, like, you know, it's, I don't know if that's really transformative. I feel like it's kind of not. or to eat or to talk to his mom or to do whatever disappears for extended period of time and leaves the video playing for his chair
Starting point is 00:04:13 Mr. Chair, they call it. IDF had warned people to leave the area around the main airport and Sana I don't know why he doesn't just pause it because don't people want to hear what he says about the video? Like I mean because isn't this kind of like you saying like nobody even cares about like me talking about this video? Like, well, really, I mean, think about it.
Starting point is 00:04:37 So, because like, like, for me, in my opinion, I think that, like, people want to watch me react to a video because they want to hear what I'm saying about the video. Like, that's what I would imagine. Because, like, why else would you want to watch some bald retard in the corner of screen interrupting your video unless you wanted to hear what he had to say? So how do you just leave the video on? I mean, again, and if it's live, I understand this. But if it's not live, then I don't see why you would do that. It doesn't even make sense to me. It like, it kind of goes against the entire premise of like
Starting point is 00:05:12 what a react is supposed to be for. Is that you're reacting to it. So, am I? Like, I mean, the more that I think about this, the more insane it sounds. Do you can pause live? Yeah. No way. The worst part about this is that he's not even suing Hassan.
Starting point is 00:05:55 Hassan isn't even the worst one. Yeah. That's what's so insane. The worst is that's only one video. And it was in this setting. that I formulated an idea. What if I could make a long form, irresistible piece of content that I knew that these streamers couldn't resist, they couldn't avoid the temptation of watching it, the second
Starting point is 00:06:28 it was published. I don't know. Fucking Apple, bro, the Apple and Eden, oh my God. It's not that I wanted these people to steal my video, it's that I knew they would. I knew they would watch the entire video, add little to no commentary, react to it in Instantly, giving them no time to form an opinion, the trap was set and it worked even better than I imagined it would. We captured pretty much every large streamer reacting to it in its entirety immediately after it was published. Now, the thing is...
Starting point is 00:06:59 Except for me, who waited multiple days. Because again, the most ethical streamer. But yeah, everybody else besides me, that's true. There were a few people that went above and beyond to commit copyright and... infringement. Yes. For example, Denham sits here silently with nearly 50,000 live viewers. That's a lot of people.
Starting point is 00:07:21 That's 30 times her regular viewership. Wow. She's working directly with the Snark's subreddit moderators to siphon views and their intentions could. Content, nuke, where to watch and discussion. We've seen a lot of comments about wanting to watch the nuke without throwing support for H3. Dude, why are you do? Why do you do this? Like, it's just, you're just, you're setting yourself up.
Starting point is 00:07:48 to lose. Like, it's like this is like, oh, where to steal something? Like, how do these people, do they have no sense of self-preservation at all? Do they think that I, and this is what I really think that it is. I think it's privileged people that are used to getting everything that they want for their entire life used to being catered to, pacified, placated, and served constantly for their whole life, they get held accountable one time and they collapse. There's been no accountability for this at all, full-on complacency. No, this isn't even complacency. This is beyond that. Complacency is not giving a fuck. This is being aggressive. It's being malicious. They're Karen's. They are care. Absolutely. And be clear, here's an excerpt from a sticky post from the snark subred.
Starting point is 00:08:44 Hey, everyone. We've seen a lot of comments about wanting to watch the nuke without showing support for H3. Here's a list of creators who've supported our sub, either by engaging with us directly or citing our post in their critique of H3. Here they're all. I don't know why any of these people would have done that. I feel like it's such a, it's such a massive fucking mistake. I don't understand at all. Like, how could you possibly think that this was a good idea?
Starting point is 00:09:14 Especially if you knew that Ethan hates, so like, I mean, so you think Ethan is this greedy, awful, money hungry demon. You also know that he hates the Snark subreddit. You intentionally antagonize him. You know that he's already been to court before and he won. What the hell is wrong with you? They're so dumb. Why would you do this? Offering these streamers as market substitutes for my work.
Starting point is 00:09:43 This is the cardinal sense. of copyright infringement. That's correct. The snark subreddit has been a frequent and persistent infringer. That's how I knew when this video came out, the snarkers were going to... Which I totally support Ethan in this, by the way, I do. If you are intentionally uploading somebody's content in order to deprive them of views as your primary goal, you are acting in a malicious way. And in my opinion, the way did I decide whether somebody is wrong or not, I look at what they're trying to do. Are you trying to hurt someone in this circumstance? the answer is yes.
Starting point is 00:10:18 Courage, promote, and push streamers to commit copyright infringement. I should thank the Snarkers, actually. Because of their predictability, they acted like double agents for us, incriminating their favorite streamers and serving them up on a golden platter. So it gets even better. I don't know if he includes this in the video, but he's actually, he subpoenaed Reddit for the different Snark subreditors, or subreditors like the mods,
Starting point is 00:10:43 for like their real life information. Bro, Ethan is actually going scorched earth on this shit. And by the way, it's completely their fault. They never, ever, ever, ever had to call CPS on him. They never had to justify it. They never had to make it. And also keep in mind this entire problem and this entire premise is built off of the fact
Starting point is 00:11:09 that Ethan didn't want to say that Hamas was a good group. That's it. Ethan did not want to automatically condemn Israel and say that Israel is the worst place ever. Because Ethan supported Palestine too. He donated to Hassan's thing. So I just want you guys to understand that this is a situation where nine out of ten things they are completely aligned on. But this one retarded thing that they can't let go of is enough for these people to potentially ruin their fucking life. Good for M. Screw the people that think they're untouchable. I agree with you. I do. Not radical enough? Yes. They love terrorists too much.
Starting point is 00:11:50 Well, now they're getting terrorized. I'll be honest. I bet they're not having a good time today. So, thank you, Snark. It's one thing for a subreddit to admit it's engaging in copyright infringement. But how do you get the streamers themselves? Literally none of this would have happened if they didn't call CPS. Everything until that point, I could totally overlook a stupid internet drama, involve my kids, and I'll fucking delete you.
Starting point is 00:12:10 honestly, any adult could not for a second blame Ethan for that. That is a crazy escalation. And not only isn't an escalation, but it's completely unethical. You're misusing and weaponizing a government facility in order to fulfill out an internet beef. And this government facility is supposed to be for protecting, like, beaten kids. to admit it's engaging in copyright infringement. But how do you get the streamers themselves to admit that they're stealing content? Easy, apparently.
Starting point is 00:12:48 Well, guys, if you enjoyed not giving any views to that terrible video, follow. How would you, like, how could you be so stupid to say this? I don't understand that. Like, I mean, even if you believe it, why would you say it? Like, there's a lot of dumb things that, like, everybody believes, but they know I shouldn't say that. subscribe throw a prime if you like the content if you enjoyed your time here so she it turns out they just do it for you you couldn't cook up a more incriminating statement if you tried denims the man and now denims is raising money for a lawsuit and a lot of the people that are donating are saying
Starting point is 00:13:32 i'm donating for Ethan Klein to get this money queen of self-owning you prevail again there's one thing about copyright you should know is that you got to register it before you publish to be eligible for statutory damages and attorney's fees, which is the... See, I actually didn't know that. I thought that you just had to publish it. I thought copyright was created on Inception, but this could be an additional level of legal accountability. Jawa wasn't aware of this. I think it's two separate levels, because I think it was changed in like 1975, but he's talking about something that's a legal, a legal resolution.
Starting point is 00:14:09 Right. Infringement lawsuit. Well, I'm happy to tell you guys now. I, Ethan Klein, have registered Hassan Piker Content Nuke with the United States Library of Congress. So he planned this entire thing out. Some of you guys out there sweating. Even though theoretically, I could sue a lot more creators and rake in millions of dollars. But the purpose of this is not financial gain. It's not about the money. It's about sending a message.
Starting point is 00:14:36 XQC and Asmin Gold may have watched the entire thing, but I would never sue them just for doing that. I don't want to chill the reaction community into fear. Actually, the opposite. I hope that we can... See, this is what I think is really funny, is that obviously these people are trying to reframe this in a way that Ethan just hates reaction content. But again, they're just liars. Literally. They're actually just liars.
Starting point is 00:15:02 They're just making things up and saying things that aren't true. He literally addresses this specific point. And he goes through how they are actually. and intentionally foregoing every fair use protection possible. And all unite against this type of egregious behavior that not only makes us all. And also keep in mind that when people like Denims or Casey Tron do this, they do very slightly draw the eye of Sauron called Disney. I don't want to have that happen.
Starting point is 00:15:41 nobody wants to have that happen or Sony and the more that they do this flagrantly without any degree of self-preservation reasonability or anything the higher the probability is that all content on Twitch will suffer as a result of it because of a large-scale lawsuit that's the big issue that I have that's my main concern in Washington was yesterday no no it came out yesterday It's kind of insane to admit that you're abusing a legal system and punish people who you don't like selectively while admitting you don't care about the foundation of the law that you're breaking. I'm not even going to address this because you're just a retard and you're not interested in having a genuine conversation. Ethan clearly made a distinction between the groups of people that he was suing and the other people that were reacting. Explain the distinction. Now, you can say that's not a good distinction or disagree with that.
Starting point is 00:16:36 but to say that he's admitting that he's doing this selectively, yes, he is doing it selectively. He's doing it based off of the people that did it the worst, the most egregious black and white defenders, or offenders, excuse me. It's just, you're literally just, and this is the thing, these people literally just lie. And I think this is the reason why I never tried to engage with people like that, is because they just lie.
Starting point is 00:17:02 They say things that just aren't true. How do you deal? Like it's like into the, what was it, the metaphor of playing chess with a pigeon. You can't beat a chess, you can't beat a pigeon and chess because they'll just walk over the board, kick over all the pieces and say they won. You can't, you just can't win. Why would you ban them over this? Why would I want to have anybody in my chat saying stuff like that? Disagree with banning?
Starting point is 00:17:25 I don't. If people disagree and they're just literally lying, making up bullshit, then why would I want to deal with that? I don't want to deal with people like that. They're annoying. They're annoying retards. They're bad faith morons that aren't even, they're just trying to push an agenda. Like, why would I do that? Look bad, but could destroy the commentary community as we know it.
Starting point is 00:17:44 It's a retard. Well, guys, if you enjoyed not giving any views to that terrible video, follow, subscribe, throw a prime. The state of reaction content on Twitch is so broken. These creators feel comfortable looking right into a camera and saying outright, hey, I'm stealing this guy's content. Pay me. I don't think it's the state of reaction content. I think it's these people think that they are genuinely untouchable.
Starting point is 00:18:11 That's the reason. They have this massive ego and they have this mindset that I actually don't think it's, I don't think it's a meta-twitch issue. I think it's a certain subset of these people that believe that because they have the right politics, any action or anything that they do is proactively, justified because they're on the right side of some social issue or some political viewpoint. That's why, for example, whenever they get called out for promoting, calling CPS on Ethan, right? Or they, like rationalizing it, not necessarily promoting it, but rationalizing it.
Starting point is 00:18:51 They don't even think about it, right? They're not even thinking about the consequences or anything like that. You have the right set of history? Exactly. CPS, child protective services. It's a place in America. It's an organization in America that helps make sure that kids aren't in abusive households.
Starting point is 00:19:11 And people that didn't like Ethan Klein weaponized that government agency in order to harass Ethan Klein's family and try to get his kids taken away from him. And I think that these people just think that anything, and by the way, when you criticize them for that, they say, why are you criticizing me while there's a genocide going on?
Starting point is 00:19:31 Well, I'm really glad this is happening because now, how are you crying about a lawsuit whenever there's a genocide going on? This is what you fucking get. Instead of him, this is not a healthy environment. And with people like Hassan reacting to entire TV shows on stream, my fear is that Sony or Disney comes along sues every... Fucking exactly. Fucking exactly. Just like what happened with music. Buddy.
Starting point is 00:19:57 And sets a devastating precedent that could endanger our entire field. Yeah, before I tell you who the three people... people I'm suing are. I just want to make it clear that they all met this very specific high You can see the difference that Ethan is creating here, right? The difference between so, oh, and I've also seen people reframing it as in Ethan is doing this because they're women. Ethan now hates women too. Crazy. Are of criteria that I set forth earlier. These people were not targeted based on their gender, their identity, their political beliefs. All three are on this list.
Starting point is 00:20:37 In fact, they're the only three as far as I could tell that reacted to the full video. And I would say also, like, the fact is, like, I mean, Mike from PA has said, like, way worse stuff than I think Frogan Denims or Casey Tron have said in terms of, like, advocating for violence. But he's not the one that's getting in trouble. He's not the one that's getting sued. So you've got to think about why that is. It's about the malicious action. Drum roll please. Who's sweating at home guys? Casey Tron, the queen of ripping farts and bonglows.
Starting point is 00:21:15 They do musicals. They're very musical people. Are you being serious? Dog, what do you? Look, you think I'm mad? Frogan, who bless her soul, she's still rising. Can I walk away and use a bathroom? Is she though? Can I use a bathroom, please? I'll leave it playing. Apparently thinks Twitch is liable for me interviewing a Yemeni teenager who's only
Starting point is 00:21:48 What happens? And denims. Jesus. The queen of self-owning. And my God, is she the queen of that? It's very obvious from the way that guy's talking. He's a Sneco fan. Oh my God, bro.
Starting point is 00:22:03 I love you. I'm so sweaty, bro. I love you, bro. None of the hostages that have been released so far have said that they have been raped. The host- Oh my God. Where do these people come from?
Starting point is 00:22:26 They just have public statement. You can go look at that. The sexual assault I experience should never happen to any human being. This Yemeni kid is... It's crazy that these people are just so blatant with lying. And what's shocking to me about it is that everybody doesn't collectively realize that it's ridiculous. There are actually people that agree with this and they go along with it. How brain-rodded do you have to be to just willingly follow through with this?
Starting point is 00:23:00 propaganda. It's insane. It's just a Yemeni kid with a gun and is not a hootie and there is no proof of him being a hootie. Are you a soldier? Yes. That seems... Why do you even say this? And this is the real reason why I think people hate the, like everybody hates these people. It's because they never even admit that they're wrong. Like they can say two plus two is five.
Starting point is 00:23:35 And if somebody says, no, it's not. they will somehow never come to the conclusion that they were ever wrong about it to begin with. That's the reason why everybody hates them. Pretty definitive. He never said, Hassan Nasrullah was a good guy. I can't believe I'm calling Nasrallah base. I mean, listen. Now for the fun.
Starting point is 00:23:57 Embarrassing. Absolutely embarrassing. No wonder 50,000 people watch that. Let's take a look at the complaints. and let's start with my favorite of the three. How do you do math? A lot of genocides happening? True.
Starting point is 00:24:10 Okay, here we go. The very own, the prestigious, the highly acclaimed, the highly analytical, Casey Tron. A lot of people have been wanting to watch this without necessarily supporting Ethan Klein. Ethan, please stream this lawsuit. Please stream it. Please stream it so I can react. Please, I need this, man. I really fucking need this.
Starting point is 00:24:49 So we're going to watch it. I know, I know, I know. Really dumb thing to say, don't you think? Why would you say that? Why are you so comfortable? We've given each complaint a clever little type. The reason why she's so comfortable is that she openly says and calls people rapists and says all kinds of insane, really bad defamatory stuff on Twitter constantly. And she suffered zero consequences from it from Twitch.
Starting point is 00:25:14 She's another one of these people that somehow has plot armor because I'm assuming some of her politics line up with some of the politics of the moderation department of Twitch. That's the reason why. I'm not interested in the way that she looks. It doesn't matter to me what her appearance is. And here's Casey Tron's. She smoked more than she spoke. Casey Tron smokes 42. Wait, what?
Starting point is 00:25:44 She smokes. times during her reaction. And just as a silly thought experiment, we thought, wouldn't it be funny if she spent more time smoking than she did talking? And thinking there was no way that that could be true. You know it. I know it. Everybody knows it. Well, we tallied them up. And lo and behold, there's 15 minutes, 40 seconds of commentary versus 18 minutes and 55 seconds of smoking. This is like a cartoon. Really? It, it...
Starting point is 00:26:32 It's like a cartoon. How does this even happen? And three minutes and 15 seconds longer smoking than she did talking in her quote unquote reaction. And whatever talking she did was just to express how confused she was, presumably from smoking 42 times. Wait. What is happening? I'm trying to follow. I've lost the...
Starting point is 00:26:56 What? She doesn't even know what she's talking about. This is when... This is the Saddam. fucking rapture clip, right? I'm pretty sure it is. No, no, it's something else. No, that was another one.
Starting point is 00:27:18 Stalin? No, no, I got confused. The complaint continues. Indeed, KC. Tron is often too obliterated to comment on the nuke. And instead, stares blankly at her computer screen. And a span of two hours and seven minutes, Casey Tron smokes marijuana, frequently in highly concentrated form. That's really good that you added that into the legal text. through vaporizers on 42 separate occasions.
Starting point is 00:27:43 At one point, Casey Tron is so wasted that she states, quote, what is happening? I'm trying to follow, but I've lost the plot. Also, at a certain point, you have to ask the question, 42 times. Now, there's a rule on Twitch about substance abuse. 42 times, like, you don't even know what the fuck is going on in the video you're watching. watching. Like, is that over the line? I feel like it just might be. Somebody asks,
Starting point is 00:28:21 who's the better person? Martin Luther King Jr. or Stalin? What the fuck are you talking about? What do you talk? Who is this guy? Leave the weed alone. Yeah, anyway, so the fact is that this happens. And like, how is this not to a certain degree substance abuse? If you're so high, you don't even know what you're watching you have you an idea the majority of her commentary comes down to this I don't understand this
Starting point is 00:29:02 he's doing God damn than you can ever imagine what the hell is coming out of guitar what the hell is going on? Jesus he's read more books that
Starting point is 00:29:18 God damn you could ever How is this real? What is happening? I'm trying to follow. I lost the line. Oh my God. They're very musical people.
Starting point is 00:29:45 Are you being serious? Dog, what do you? Look? You think I made this? How is this? How did we get here? Oh my God. It's sad.
Starting point is 00:30:12 It's very good. Yes, this is. Just take a step back and think about how ridiculous this is. And as dumb as all of that is, this is the part that really got her sued. A lot of people have been wanting to watch this without necessarily supporting Ethan Klein. Without necessarily supporting Ethan Klein. Why would you say this? Like, this is, you don't have, like,
Starting point is 00:30:46 Why would you do this? So we're going to watch it. What the fuck is going on here? Is dating outright that her intention of doing this is so that people who don't want to support me can watch it through her? Yeah. Is why copyright infringement laws exist? You could not and should not do that, especially if your commentary can- Keep in mind, this is what they're trying to look at as fair use.
Starting point is 00:31:14 Because they don't understand laws. they don't the thing is that they don't need to because they've been coddled and protected from the consequences of their bad behavior their whole lives and every time that anything bad happens to them they blame some sort of outside force
Starting point is 00:31:32 like misogyny or racism or something rather than looking at themselves and thinking did I do something wrong have you taken bongloads at least try to engage with the content what was that? Oh, Sorry, that was a flying star. It almost got me.
Starting point is 00:31:48 You know her and you love her, guys. Frogan. Oh. Reaction by exiting. Here she is getting up to leave the video running as she steps out of the room. Is that transformative? Hmm. I guess the judge will decide.
Starting point is 00:32:02 She said, quote, it's time to watch the nuke ethically. Hell yeah. Huh. Very smart to say on camera, by the way. She said, why would you say this? I don't, this is, again, these people literally think they have. plot armor. Techtone pointed out that Ethan wins. The out is in the legal case, proving how they broke the law on Twitch and they'll have to ban them. No, Tectone didn't point that out. I did. Tectone
Starting point is 00:32:35 probably heard, I said it. And then he used it for himself. He didn't say that. I said that. The quote, thank you guys so much. I do appreciate everyone's support. And thank you for watching it with me. Well, you are so welcome. And I'm so glad that you were able to enjoy that day. Her commentary is so non-existent that even her own fans begin to call her out. I have anything to say, dude, because he's cycling the same fucking points over and over again. What more commentary do you need on him repeating the same fucking points for the whole? Heart cake baking stream? So people are going to give her money so she can make herself a cake?
Starting point is 00:33:19 Okay. You know who the real victim in all of this is? It's Nick. Nick has been victimized by all of this. Like, he didn't do any of this. He had nothing to do with this. And somehow he's like fucking front and. center with this entire situation.
Starting point is 00:33:36 First hour and 30, hour, hour, hour one minute and 32 seconds. Yeah. It's been the same shit over and over again. This video could have been condensed into 20 fucking minutes. Like what,
Starting point is 00:33:46 what commentary do you want me to add by like, oh, this guy's a fucking idiot. He's mentally ill and he's having a mental, so the only time that she actually pauses to give commentary is her arguing with her chat about her not giving commentary. That's cute. Like down and uploaded it to fucking YouTube.
Starting point is 00:34:02 They're going to make at least one good point. What do you want me to make a point on? Oh, I forgot. She also said, can I use the bathroom, please? I'll leave it playing. You may use the bathroom, Frogan. Although I don't advise it. Can I use the bathroom, please?
Starting point is 00:34:14 I'll leave it playing. This into your stomach. And let me state the obvious. Apparently thinks Twitch is liable for me interviewing a Yemeni teenager who's only known genocide his entire life. What happens? But you just pause it. That's it.
Starting point is 00:34:27 You just pause the video, right? Like, you get up and you go to the bathroom. You just pause it. They should be. And also, like, this is. is what's so crazy is like, why would anybody want to watch you watch a video if you're not even there? It's just so stupid. Like, it's like basically like you admitting that, oh, well, nobody gives a shit about my opinion about this. So I'm just going to do this. They always get up.
Starting point is 00:34:53 I'm going to disagree with the political stance. Yeah, I guess so. Could, uh, she used the fact that she was on times two speed as an argument about it being transformative. I have no idea. watching for you but if you get up to go to the bathroom and they keep watching my video they're clearly not watching for you right as lazy and pathetic as her reaction is this is not why she's getting sued
Starting point is 00:35:14 this is thank you guys so much I do appreciate everyone's support and thank you for watching it with me person viewer time to watch a new ethically hell yeah I found my way these people are so caught up
Starting point is 00:35:35 in their own fake morality world that they're actually going to ruin their own life. And I've got to admit it's fun to watch. It really is. I love seeing this.
Starting point is 00:35:53 This is amazing. You love to see it? I really do. From Reddit. Hi guys. Welcome Reddit people. Reddit people. Reddit people. I came from the 83 Stark Reddit. Ethan is so pathetic while Hassan is in Japan. I'm father having a great time. Exactly. Oh God. It's just so sad
Starting point is 00:36:14 And I watch it live, yes It doesn't want people to know when it's dropping Because we're all watching through other shimmers And I suggest you all watch it through other people as well It's the stated malicious You just Why would you Why would you
Starting point is 00:36:32 Why would you Why would you say that Again, it's the stated malicious intent I don't understand this. Watching through other streamers. And I suggest you all watch it through other people as well.
Starting point is 00:36:51 It's the state. 100% ain't anyone watching that show my truth channel. There's been like over a million views, etc. You know, like it's just embarrassing, man. They did malicious intent to steal. They talk about
Starting point is 00:37:03 watching ethically, but I learned not to steal when I was five. No, it has nothing to do with ethics at all. It has everything to do with their own moral viewpoint that retro proactively absolves them of any guilt from any action. Anything that they do is okay because they're on the right side of something.
Starting point is 00:37:26 They think they're untouchable? They do. Next is Denham's. And honestly, just take a look at this, guys. It's a nightmare on denim. This is in the court documents. Great. Not only did she Cherriac. but she was kind enough to write her name right at the top just so that we knew that she was
Starting point is 00:37:54 stealing my content and it was rogan deleted her of odds when i googled her somebody said that is that true yep that's true that is in fact true uh i would have expected that oh oh and her where wait wait um her pinned message is a go fund me how's that going five thousand dollars for ethan klein That's great. So she's raised for almost $6,000 for Ethan. Good for him. You think her leader would pay it? You mean, Hassan would pay it?
Starting point is 00:38:36 I mean, like, Hassan, it's not Hassan's fault that they're this dumb. And also, I guarantee you Hassan is probably going to try to, like, make an excuse for why this is okay. When he knows 100% that they're in the wrong. 100%. They're in the wrong. Everybody knows it. It's obvious. saying that they're in the wrong, and somehow there's going to be a reason why it's not a problem.
Starting point is 00:39:02 You're explaining why they need to go fund me? Aren't they rich anyway? They're not rich at all, bro. Like, absolutely not. These people are bottom feeders. Like, you probably make more than they do working at McDonald's. I'm not even kidding. It was her room and nobody else's. Judge, did you know that we're on Denham Street right now? Here's some quotes from Denims. We're relying on you to stay live so we don't have to give the nuke views. Yeah, I'm going to stream it since he's confirmed it's coming out today. I'm going to stream it. That is very explicit. Denham said, quote, well, guys, if you enjoyed not giving any views to that terrible video,
Starting point is 00:39:44 give me a follow, subscribe, throw a prime if you like my content. So she's actively saying that she's admitting that she's cannibalizing viewership and acting as a market replacement while trying to profit off of it. So that's like a two and one. Because there's four pillars of fair use, and that's two of them right there. In one sentence. Content. The queen of self-own included a countdown timer so we could tell exactly how long she was away. After being gone for a few minutes, she returns and then sits silently for another couple of minutes eating.
Starting point is 00:40:21 I'm going to go pee, and hopefully when I'm back, they're done with this. What is the chat saying in this? Like, I'm just confused Nobody's even complaining about it I mean, I guess they are kind of, but like not really Don't leave it on She's making us watch this Oh my God
Starting point is 00:40:52 All right You do look better Mr 305 Yeah I see it Dude you should do this I have an alternate We're relying on you to stay live so we don't give more views on the nuke
Starting point is 00:41:10 Yeah I'm gonna I'm gonna stream it Since he confirmed it's coming out today we're going to stream it. If you want to watch it, watch it. So there's even prior intent that's stated as well, like not even during the thing. Like you even said that afterwards you're like how do you, oh my God. With someone else who's already watching it, you know, come enjoy the watch party somewhere else. If you enjoyed not giving any views to that terrible video, follow, subscribe, throw a prime. If you like the content, if you enjoyed your time here, because I'm going to be honest, I did not want to watch that by myself. Let me also commercialize it by asking you to reward me financially for stealing his content.
Starting point is 00:41:52 That is like, Chef Kiss. By the way, Denims had a very successful stream. She had 403,000 people watching her live. Take a look at the title of her Twitch stream. Ethan Klein-Hassan content, Nuke watch party. A watch party? I don't think that's fair use. Now Denham's, of course, always delivering the goods. She went on this dude's podcast to debate. fair use. And would you be surprised if I told you she said a lot of incriminating things in that podcast? What does she say? The queen of self-owned never disappoints. I want to be clear on my opinion on like filler content and stuff. Like I think filler content like you shouldn't do it. I know I do it as a react stream. And I try to do it. You shouldn't do it, but I do it. But only when I do it with like Vox
Starting point is 00:42:35 videos or vice videos and stuff like that. Which that, well, that's not true. Because at least I'm not like directly ripping from one content creator and not like a whole. Why would that even you see how like this warped fucking like inverted morality system just totally just like like fucking changes ever like how do you do this really it's it's what a mindset yeah it's this complete like these people have created an apparatus where the entire world is somehow like everything that they do was justified And whenever they do something wrong, it's someone else's fault. It's incredible. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:27 Full team and stuff. And most of those videos have like five million views. I only get like 500 viewers. Like what? I'm taking maybe 50 views from the video. It's a lot harder to feel like, I guess, bad about that. Whereas like I would feel very bad about doing that to like a single content creator. The majority of people said that they literally wouldn't watch Hell's Kitchen unless I was streaming.
Starting point is 00:43:43 And it doesn't necessarily mean that I'm reacting hard enough. You know, I'm sure if you click on a random part in the video, I might not be saying anything. Sure, whatever. And I might walk away from the screen. But it's about. like the communal thing. It's why like fucking Toast started streaming death note. It's not about the actual show at a certain point. It's the same reason you watch shows with your friends. You want to watch it with other people. A lot of people go to watch streamers on Twitch for their React content
Starting point is 00:44:06 almost as a curator. So they don't actually want to go through YouTube themselves and watch a bunch of videos and they probably never will go through YouTube and click a bunch of videos. They like going to Twitch because they like to have it as like this streamer is curating fun content that I want to watch. The people that I've talked to, the people who watch Twitch content are specific... I mean, there's an element of truth to this. I mean, definitely there's like some truth to this. But at the same time, it's just, it's in between a million other fucking lies. ...there to watch it so they don't have to scroll through YouTube and find a video they like.
Starting point is 00:44:40 If someone watches content, I already said this, if someone watches content on someone else's stream, there is a very low likelihood that they're going to go watch it separately and give you like the view or the like. People who are watching content on Twitch, curated Twitch content on Twitch, aren't necessarily people that would be watching content on YouTube. That, my friend, is called theft and you're a thief. And now I'm saying that. Why would you go out and say that? I don't understand.
Starting point is 00:45:10 That sounds like all Twitch streamers? No, no. You've got to keep in mind. Ethan has said over and over, it's not about reactions in general. it is about the malicious use of them in order to intentionally damage somebody's somebody's video this is a totally different universe this is just a testimony to how brazen and how safe they've you know gotten that she thinks she can go out on public on video and say shit like i'm stealing this content because
Starting point is 00:45:47 i want to i'm coping even though i know it's stealing when people watch it with me, they're definitely not going to go watch the original. Like, you are way too comfortable committing crimes out in the open. Well, there you have it. Three separate lawsuits for three separate geniuses. Now, I want to make it clear again,
Starting point is 00:46:05 I hope it's been obvious about why I'm suing these three people. Yeah, I mean, to me, it seems like it's totally obvious. 100%. Are you worried about the whole reacting video content getting limited in general if this case is a win? I don't ever worry about things happening. If things happen, then I deal with them. Like, I don't sit around and constantly worry about, like, you know, something bad happening.
Starting point is 00:46:32 There's a million bad things that could happen. The Roach survives one way or another. And not others. These people not only violated all the principles of fair use, they also did it maliciously. And that's the part that really, that's the part that really. really got me. I think if you're a Reactor on Twitch, for the most part, if you make a good faith effort to comment, and if you make a good faith effort to promote the author, to link to them, to try to drive traffic to the original video, I think you're probably pretty much doing the right
Starting point is 00:47:07 thing and that's fine. There it is. I think that's the way a lot of people see it. Now, you have extremists that are on both views, but the reason why, and that's what we do, right, obviously, about what we do. The reason why is because you're doing it in good faith. I don't know why, and this is what I think that these people don't understand, is that doing something in bad faith is bad fundamentally. If you're doing something in order to hurt somebody, it doesn't matter what your worldview is or what their worldview is. It's not justified to do for that reason. So good faith common denominator? Yes, these people are massively bad faith.
Starting point is 00:47:52 We'll listen to it again. If you make a good faith effort to promote the author, to link to them, to try to drive traffic to the original video, I think you're probably pretty much doing the right thing and that's fine. And I would never sue someone for that. Take it to these three absolute morons to state their intention to steal my property on video. And to all the detractors who are saying that I'm targeting women, that I'm a hypocrite for suing for copyright infringement. I just have this to say.
Starting point is 00:48:23 I don't care. What I do hope... That's the best way to deal with it. It's because the people that are bringing up those points, not a single one of them actually cares about that point or believes it. They're simply weaponizing that viewpoint in order to hopefully win a fake argument on a moral ground that they don't even actually believe. when you engage people
Starting point is 00:48:49 when they are willingly and knowingly putting forward a lie, you lose by engaging. Don't ever play a game with that. Again, you lose by engaging people in bad faith,
Starting point is 00:49:04 fundamentally. Just virtue signaling? Yes, exactly. Concern trolls, yes. To say, I don't care. What I do hope, though, is that you'll support their crowdfunding efforts
Starting point is 00:49:17 to defend themselves because let's face it, I want to make sure there's money left over for me when I win my lawsuit. Thanks for watching everybody. It's been a great time. I'll see you around. Man, this was, I actually, I'm going to be honest, I think this is better than the content nuke. I do. This is, this is, I actually like it even more because he already predicted, what I think is really funny about this, is that he already predicted every single thing that these people are going to say and do because they behave. like bots. There's the video. Give it a like. I mean, again, I've been a big supporter of Ethan. I think Ethan's great. I mean, do I agree with Ethan about everything? No, but who does? With anybody. I mean, so yeah, this is it. This is what's happened. And it seems like also, by the way,
Starting point is 00:50:07 there's been an overwhelming majority of people that have massively supported this. And if you compare this to, let's see what the content nuke is compared to Hassan. Let's look at that. yeah there's actually an even better ratio with this video so people are being uh you know i think in a lot of cases uh converted over and realizing just how like weird on this there is and so yeah there it is and that's what i call a real creator clash yeah i guess so uh Ethan disrespected you in this video how do you like this guy he disrespected me what do you mean he said i was fine what are you talking about yeah there's the video yeah give it a like give him a sub yeah absolutely Yeah, where? No, he didn't.
Starting point is 00:50:50 Like, I've had nothing but positive interactions with Ethan for the last five years. I don't have any issues at all with him. So, yeah, I don't think so. That's it. Yeah, he even literally said he was talking about, like, my, like the way that, like, I react to content. And he said, it's fine. Property on video, you know, and to all the detractors who are saying that I'm targeting women, yeah, words.
Starting point is 00:51:13 And if you make a good faith, for the most part, if you make a good faith effort to comment. And if you make a good faith effort to promote the author, to link to them, to try to drive traffic to the original video, I think you're probably pretty much doing the right thing and that's fine. And I would never sue someone for that. Do people just have like a fucking disorder? It's crazy. Yeah. I mean, it's got to be a disorder or something, right? I mean, damn. So they just dislike Ethan? Yeah, it's unbelievable. The level of a disorder. like mental, you know, gymnastics, these people will play with themselves.
