The worst I can say about Monty in respect to this case is that, in the events leading up to the filing, he was... admittedly... needling Rekieta pretty hard.
However, I don't think that's a good enough excuse for Nick to say what he said. I think a person should exercise enough self control to avoid falsely accusing somebody of being a child molester.. Nick came completely off the rails here. Worse than coming off the rails, actually. Falsely accusing somebody of being a pedo is coming off the rails. Falsely accusing them of being a child molester is coming off the rails, skidding into an orphanage, and then exploding. Monty didn't deserve that. I don't care how weird he is.
if we're being honest nick's true folly was being such a shithead in his small town. Gawker survived for over a decade defaming way more people with much deeper pockets, but they also had enough legal knowledge to make sure that if sued it would have to be on their home field in NYC, which has a huge legal system so even if the website managed to piss off one judge in their history there were hundreds more that would be impartial and the jury just based on politics would be heavily in their favor vs whomever they were sued by. By all accounts Nick was going to fry no matter who sued him just by how infamous he is in his home town. Think about it, when Nick moved to that county they already knew all the shit we only have just learned about Nick in the last 12 months in terms of his real personality or work ethnic or how he plays with others. Even worse, most of those people in that court are former co-workers, people here hate the guy just based on the last year of doing a few hours of streaming a week, imagine having to deal with this fucker for years and 40 hours a week. He's honestly lucky no one has tried beating the shit out of him.
Nick's only shot is getting this case thrown out because literally any other option leads to it being decided and i have a hard time believing no matter how random the judge or jury, they'd side with Nick. He's the county pervert, making his money online shilling balldos and going to swinger resorts. anyone thats lived somewhere as small in population as nick lives knows the rich people get talked about all the time, and word would travel fast. Thats actually a huge reason Depp chose Fairfax county, he made sure to size up the county before deciding where to fuck over Amber, just hoping the chips fall in your favor is how he got fucked over in the UK.
Nick would have had a better shot if he didn't live somewhere where he already has a reputation or at the very least didn't piss off the judge over various slights.
This comes off as insane considering Glenn Beck, Ben Shapiro, and even Tim Pool actually built a business with the shekels they took in from their audience to varying success. What has Nick really done with his money? Buy a fancy car? Visit a swingers resort? Attempt and fail to build a sex dungeon in his house? Get sued by Monty?
That's the problem, is Nick joined the side of Dax and co who will just ride out what they get until even the most devoted pay pigs stop caring without even trying to build something more with the funds they get. Nick is the epitome of squandered resources.
Edit: And that's the thing, at least those other people realized they want to be their own thing so they tried to branch out, Nick is just another content creator who is completely dependent on Youtube and Rumble to survive.
To be fair, those guys did that because they wanted to, you could have given them money a decade or two ago and they'd do the same thing. Some people have goals and passions and are just waiting on the money to do them. But Nick's like a lottery winner, you give them money and they blow it hard and quick. Other alcoholics like Ethan Ralph or Anthony Cumia behave the same way, they literally don't know how to spend their money besides on their own vices. If you notice none of those 3 have not even the simplest of causes they donate to, like say kiwifarms or some patreon or gofundme they're a fan of or even a charity that means a lot to them, a lot of the patreon people are the same way. Even the breadtube people rarely give a dime to anyone politically, when you'd think they'd max out their donations, especially the american socialists with how low that bar is.
Meanwhile almost every job creator i know from the guy running the vape shop to CEOs have at least one thing they donate time or money to, even in a selfish way like playing in a band to raise money for charity. its just a personality thing, there are people where there is never enough time or money to do everything they want to do, and for others especially e-celebs its all about using what money they have to fill a vice. As ethan ralph showed' these people will stream for almost nothing rather than get a real job.
Nick could be given anything, he'd squander the resources on booze and other shit. Say what you will about Dax, he's the only one who either found a way to cook the books hard on patreon or is saving at least 75% of his money, he's brought 2 new cars and a house the last decade, and outside of bi-yearly trips to the desert he rarely goes on vacation unless its some live event meaning its either a tax write off or his users pay for it. Beyond that he's still "working" for his dad, shilling scams to other dummies in other sektors, and his common-law wife still has her teaching job
Nick just said he'll be performing stand up comedy on Oct 21st in Sartell Minnesota, opening for Chrissie Mayr!
God please, out of all his promises let him keep this one.

I know you all don't care but it is sort of ironic that Nick accused someone of being a pedo and almost ruined their lives while Chrissie accused Pat Dixon (Ethan Ralph associate) of rape about a decade ago and straight up destroyed him in the NYC comedy community. he was fairly big in the new york podcasting scene too, LPOTL is technically a spin-off of his show NYC CRime report, and he was a long time regular on KATG before the accusation, going from there to TACN.
So she won’t have to pay an actual comic to host/emcee since Nick will do it in exchange for attention.
BTW, Chrissie is a laughingstock among comedians. Kevin Brennan and his crowd mercilessly clown her for this. I’m not going to start standup comedy sperging but they are 100 percent right about her and her thirsty-ass husband Frank Pellegrino.
Suffice it to say non-comedian Nick opening for non-comedian Chrissie at a standup comedy LARP makes perfect sense.
who's Kevin's crowd? boomers who can't fill even a quarter of the room? One of the guys he does zoom calls with got fired from his red lobster busboy job for being racist. You're right about Chrissie though but pretty much every "comedian" who got famous because of their e-celeb bullshit does the exact same shit, Rob Delaney's Jimmy Kimmel appearance proves these people are basically getting sympathy laughs from fans during these stand up "gigs"
