As each of the Rekieta kids grow up, Will Drexel step in to prevent them from becoming sex traffic victims of the BDSM community?

I'm sure it's something, actually, considering this mini-drama.

Hey Cynthia I'm kinda curious about the power dynamic in the locals chat? The people on top of the conversation make themselves very obvious but who is on the bottom of the totem pole? were there any potential storms brewing within locals itself or does everyone pretty much toe the line?

Thanks for your answers so far they are giving us good perspctive.

It's hard to know these days. After all this is a dude who sticks his balls in a weird little cage and then rams it up his wife's ass while his limp dick flops around uselessly.

It's not like there's a rule about it or anything.

Minnesota Rules of Professional Conduct
Rule 4.2 Communication with Person Represented by Counsel
In representing a client, a lawyer shall not communicate about the subject of the representation with a person the lawyer knows to be represented by another lawyer in the matter, unless the lawyer has the consent of the other lawyer or is authorized to do so by law or a court order.

(Amended to govern all lawyer disciplinary actions commenced on or after January 1, 1995; amended effective October 1, 2005.)

It probably wouldn't get you disciplined if the other party was himself a lawyer because the whole point of the rule is to protect non-lawyers from shyster shenanigans, but it would still be bad form.

Today's day stream had $205 in 18(16) rumble rants. Did a few greps of the log and didn't find anything interesting. Day streams with guests seem to have kept the coomer nick in the closet and the chat reflects that.

He also got over $1250 in superchats on Youtube, per Playboard.

These streams have been solid (at least for the half hour to hour or so I've been putting them on for throughout the day), and the revenue is decent, but I feel like it's still lower than last year.

One problem for Nick is although his "Internet daddy" comments may be off the mark for the majority of his critics, there is one segment of his audience that it was 100% dead on about: the clowns sending in ultra-cringe toast or prayer requests. And those ones tended to be the big $40, $50+ chats. I haven't been watching much outside of this trial, but those seem to have dropped precipitously.

Probably the one change in the show caused by Nick's degen arc that 's actually positive.

Nick's income...

So, he has a stream in which he said his best year was $750,000 (2022) IIRC and he said Rumble matched and raised. I can't recall but I think it's a 3-4 year deal, let's assume at $1M/yr.

I'll just take issue with this assumption here. Nick's story about Rumble matching and raising his income did a 180 before and after signing the deal.

One thing to keep in mind is that before Nick started dropping thinly-veiled complaints about you in his streams, he was constantly complaining about "social media experts" telling him what to do. I was just a lurker of this thread at the time, but even I realized that the phrase was a reference to people here, primarily (IMO) @Potatoherder.

Either Rumble softened their negotiating position massively shortly before the deal was signed, or Nick's comments should be taken more as attempts to own the people on this thread casting doubt on the willingness of Rumble to fully replace his YT income.

BREAKING: Nose DISABLES Live Chat Replay on Tuesday Stream

Pretty sure he has already been doing this for several streams throughout January. I'm not 100% sure how he is deciding which ones to do this for. Seems to be the post-Rumble Locals streams?

New Elissa clip. Potentially Criminal is noseguarding.

To be fair: "he's not turning into Ralph" is very, very, mild noseguarding.

I agree with him 100% on that. Nick has never been drunk enough on a flight that the pilot had to literally turn the plane around to have the police escort him off. He has never called his wife a whore or insinuated he cheated on her with her sister on Twitter. He has never gotten so drunk he loses another purse, this time forgotten at the bar.

And that's just Ralph's last week!

If Nick is half the cow that Ralph is, that's still much worse than could have been imagined a year ago.

His perception that his nosedive is overplayed is kind of true. I think he'll continue doing decent numbers for the indefinite future unless something escalates. I think the main risk to him is more in his personal life, in terms of escalating alcohol/drug use, his apparent inability to keep his Mustang on the road, etc.

Him playing dumb about the car is so gay. Also what does donating to/promoting other peoples GoFundMe's have to do with anything?

 

[BelUwUga]

Nick may not care about his children finding his own words and actions online. That's fair but completely misses the concern I hope to point out with these edits, someone else can do their own weirdness to make your degeneracy look even worse. We're closer to the picture below reflecting reality than Nick reclaiming his non-deviant reputation.

 

[Wendy Wheelchair]

Nick is sending some serious mixed messages to his kids right now that will undermine their respect for him and what he's done to shelter them from the big bad world. "Rules for thee but not for me" is the perfect recipe for kids who end up rejecting Christian/conservative/etc. values imposed in childhood during their adult lives - maybe due to irrational teen rebellion at first, but later out of genuine cynicism.

When they start getting uppity and gaining unrestricted access to the internet (which WILL happen, no matter what boomer protocol Nick has in place), they're going to start asking questions like...

• "Why can't I smoke weed with my friends when you do MDMA at gay bars?"
• "Why can't I sexually experiment when you and mom swing at cuck resorts and do sex toy reviews?"
• "Why can't I hang out with such-and-such when you hang out with Drexel?"
• "Why can't I post a racy pic on Instagram when you and mom have nudes out there?"
• "Why can't I be a Big City Atheist Liberal when you and mom seem to hate being Small Town Christian Conservatives, and travel constantly to escape Small Town Christian Conservatism?"

...and Nick won't have credible answers. He's also too much of a limp wristed dweeb to sell the authoritarian "Because I said so! I'm your father! End of subject!" Tony Soprano response (btw Tony was a terrible father for doing that, no matter what legions of Youtube commenters would have you believe).

On the other hand, their social circles seem to be people who actually walk the walk on being Small Town Christian Conservatives and embarrassment might push them towards that and away from what their parents' values actually are (as opposed to what Nick & Kayla say they believe). It'll depend on what they perceive their parents' values to be.

This is where the rubber meets the road in the terms of the hypocrisy for me. People make him out to be this model dad, but for all we know, he could be the most ineffective libertarian parent in existence, letting his kids do whatever. Some things actually point to this, mainly his little little kids interrupting his 11PM+ streams to say good night and the very regular trips he takes with his wife meaning he's leaving his kids with a nanny for extended periods of time. With his libertarian "Do whatever the fuck you want as long as it doesn't 'hurt' anyone" attitude, it wouldn't be too much of a stretch if he genuinely doesn't care what his kids do and thus is a terrible father.

But if he really is the good father that people say he is, this realization that he's basically fucking up everything he's doing by trying to raise his kids "right" via his drug-fueled hedonism brain scrambling antics could be the thing that knocks some sense into him. Heck, maybe it even leads him to fully apologize for what he's doing.

But with:
1.) Having his mind permanently altered by his drug use
2.) Seemingly wanting to pursue sexual pleasure as his main goal throughout the day
3.) Being really jaded by the amount of money he's making
I don't think that's happening.

Those parts always made me really sad. Nick clearly avoids his kids with his schedule and knowing where he will be late at night they go and seek him out.

[Cynthia Behave]

Hey. I DO think there's a significant minority (say, 30% of the paid Locals subs) who aren't insane, sometimes defended me, and have challenged each other.

BUT., since Nov/Dec they generally get shouted down by the frat gang verbal violence of MrStirFry, Art, SirVieVal, CrusaderJoe, ACompleteRandom, and EyeRobot, Supporting players being AndrewWahoo, SadBoy, Charlie10101, ChefAdam (resident gay), Steve_C, CariMachet, TMFSquid, and NerfMind.

CdrRose has defended dissent. CariMachet did at one time. ClydeFrog tried recently and got shouted down. Mandy and I have been online friends for years and I think she hates the hate. Hydropix - when he's not totally baked - appreciates other views but has just resorted to quoting song lyrics and posting gifs which are seldom challenging.

Atp, it's just a parasocial cult and no dissent is tolerated unless it's about Nick's car choice or some nonsense. Hate speech is fairly regular. Hitler memes are loved unironically. What started as funny Jew jokes are just now straight-up hate and no one says boo. Btw, I HATE exaggeration. I seldom even use the word misogyny bc it's so overused. If anything, what I'm saying here is soft-peddling.

They honestly seems pretty on point from what i recall him getting during non-rittenhouse/depp streams. Nick is putting out content that *gasp* his audience was built on and is doing well. His decline in superchats between October until early 2023 was because he put out shit content.

I think he pulled up but he lost a lot of stuff in the process. He now has a dedicated group of detractors who will judge everything he does and laugh. His hugbox of locals is destroyed by infighting and paranoia. His wife is now seen as whore, friend is seen as a groomer, himself seen as a fan fucker.

All he had to do is keep all the degen stuff on locals/dm group and no one would have cared until a major blowup happened and he got metoo'd.

This is it isn't it? If he hadn't needed to throw that shit in everyone's face like some teenage homosexual people probably wouldnt be judging him so hard on the lolsuit stuff, they wouldnt be going back over drex's words and going "hey wait this is really gross and weird". This guy got such a massive benefit of the doubt from people.

as many people have said Nick has a weird humiliation fetish and that's why he drops all the hints and wears his daughters clothing however things have been getting out of his hands lately and he's not liking it as much and feeling out of control.

 

[Himedall All-seeing Waifu]

I wonder what went down.
I don't watch Nick anymore, I got sick of the constant coomer talk and the hypocrisy, did anyone happen to have eyes on this stream?
Wonder what happened for him to nuke the chat replay?

Dunno. It is a short stream, so I might put it on in the background. I have the chat log, and it is in the queue.

I'm sure it's something, actually, considering this mini-drama.

Which mini-drama? Did I miss something?

Agree. His content is back to better legal or legal adjacent topics and has stopped the non-stop balldo and sex talk. It is also no longer an improv show of random reactions, but (at least for me) the milk has soured and I cannot enjoy it anymore. I just lost all motivation to do so because I do not think he is a stand up bloke anymore. I suspect many are the same.

My prediction is that Nick does alright, but he never captures the magic that was his first 4-5 years. He had an extremely loyal fanbase that was small, but dedicated. I think he has traded that for a bunch more wannabe groupies and fans (in the pejorative sense) that are much more fickle.

You can believe whatever you want, but I will note that Stone is indeed listed on the faculty page of Georgetown University. I don't think you can fake that.

https://www.law.georgetown.edu/faculty/devin-j-stone/

I don't care for the guy's content either, but I think he's objectively been more successful the field of law than Nick has been. He's he's got a larger Youtube channel by magnitude of almost six (2.75M subs versus approx 500K).

Nick achieved success on Youtube, in spite of not having a more grandiose legal career, because he catered to an entirely different audience that was interested in law (i.e. Kiwi Farmers, etc.). He found a niche that few others were exploiting ("Law for shitposters," I like to call it). Leagle Eagle is more mainstream and left leaning. He gives takes that you can just as easily find on CNN, MSNBC, or just about anywhere. The "safe" takes. So, he's more successful despite not being all that special compared to his peers.

Remember that the sektur that KF occupies is pretty small in the grand scheme of things. A "friend of the Farms" is never gonna be the top Youtuber in their content genre.

Legal Eagle is content for people who don't realize Olive Garden is fancy fast food.

It shocks me nick did not go with Ty Beard in this lawsuit considering nick recommended him for 1st amendment work before.

Dunno if this was the same for anyone else, but I never hated my parents more than when they pulled the "because I said so, I refuse to justify or explain anything" routine. Nothing made me resent them more than that.

Well, in late September he was making $1500-2000 in super chats daily and I think he was mainly only streaming during the night during that period.

I said he pulled in $1200 on YT today but I just realized that I probably have been making an oversight in reporting those numbers - upon reflection I'm pretty sure that figure is probably commingling the previous night's stream as well. So I actually think he's fallen significantly.

That said it's pretty clear that from the Rumble rant stats you've been reporting that the trial stream revenue has proven much more resilient than the night stream revenue, probably partly because a) those streams contains none of the degen stuff that turns viewers off and b) much of the trial audience are probably more casual viewers who don't watch the night streams and don't know about the ongoing saga.

"Frivolous garbage lawsuits can cost tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars ... Also I have to pay a local Minnesota lawyer separately."

It doesn't help when you choose to hire an expensive celebrity attorney from out-of-state to deal with a frivolous suit from a lolcow.

Retaining Randazza to deal with the Monty case is the legal equivalent of dropping $100k on a Mustang Shelby so you can keep it parked in the garage during Minnesota winters and then drive your kids to appointments in it for the other four months of the year.

I'm sure a replacement-level Minnesota attorney could handle this case competently. Reaching immediately for the big guns just means Nick is handing Monty a free W, because Nick is burning far more of his own money than Monty is spending on legal fees. That's about as much as Monty could hope for given the quality of his case.

[gang weeder]

The Ryan Haywood situation (lolcow thread here) is textbook what Nick is barreling toward and what Null has been warning him about. Yes, Ryan got into more trouble because some of the girls who simped over him in his Twitch chat and ultimately hooked up with him at conventions were underage. But Ryan was a successful married YouTuber with two kids who just had to have a private chat where he could get nudes and send his own. He played up the image of a wholesome dad and wife guy, which let his audience initially trust him. He also led people to believe his wife was cool with him stepping out because she had some sort of sexual dysfunction and wasn't up to having as much sex as he wanted. DANGER, NICK ROBINSON, DANGER.

It looks like this Haywood fellow was hiding it all from his wife though? Whereas Nicky isn't hiding anything from Mrs. Nicky, because she's an exhibitionist swinger who's theoretically into all this weird shit alongside him? That's my understanding of things, correct me if I'm wrong. It actually makes for a pretty significant difference though. Stories about e-celebs ruining their lives by fucking their fans are a dime a dozen, but off the top of my head, I can't think of any others where the wifey was in on the whole thing. It's still going to end badly of course, just with a different flavor to the drama.
