.. Did you really just insinuate that unsubbing from a channel is the same as "canceling" them? LOL
Begone, foul troll!
When LMG releases a video supposedly addressing everything... doesn't address it... then actively removed any mention of it in the comments of the video (I've had 2 comments removed myself). It's safe to assume that LMG doesn't have anything they want to add to the topic. I'll just presume that I've heard all sides of the story.
The other side has spoken, and Linus is attempting to plaster over things instead of addressing them head on.
They have spoken. Both sides had their say. This is the reaction to that.
Yeah they just want to change their wOrKfLoW..or something like that. To be honest, this is something that needs to be run through the justice system. If there was sexual harassment, then some people need to be tried for those crimes. This is a culture that cannot be changed along the lines that Linus Sebastian suggested. Justice needs to be served, however, I don't think she really wants to relive this. My mother was sexually harassed by her boss (an optometrist)..it was pretty hard on her.
As someone who has self immolated in order to bring sexual assault to light... I see all the signs of darvo in the responses from LMG and Linus, and it turns my stomache.
It's not just the one employee though. Gamer Nexus has been calling out LTT for inaccuracies too. The ethics of LMG seem dubious at best and the are lots of other options so why keep watching LTT?
Cry me a river you fucking homonculus people have the right to decide they don't want to watch the boys club anymore
