I'm not totally convinced. They are as desperate as it gets and Sam is a safe target that Anissa's boyfriend would LOVE a takedown of. Ian is too much of a zombie to do anything at his point, he's totally broken and zonked on whatever his therapist has prescribed. I do not think it could get worse for them than it is right now beyond total disappearance from the Internet. If they can make the Marky stuff stick it will be pretty damming but I don't know how much Hyde fans would care. I've been a fan since the TED talk and have always assumed there was some truth to it based on what I saw but the guy has had such a target on his back for such a long time I thought it was nothing that crazy.
I don’t think Sam Hyde fans would care at all, they already know about Marky. Ian probably knew about Marky before the doc, he knew about the donation in Sam’s name to the neo Nazi thing or whatever and he wouldn’t even ask him about that in person. You don’t weakly ask a man to leave you alone publicly to seven million people then drag it back open after he kept his word without killing any sliver of dignity you have left. You just go get a normal fucking job.
It doesn’t matter if Ian talks about Marky, he’d need a lot more than the same shit we’ve all seen. He’d come across as shitty by addressing it without her consent and not very feminist at all. She may never want to be involved in the Sam Hyde universe again. Ian could only do minimal damage to Sam’s brand with some fence sitter normies who know him for his Ted talk. Sam’s going to be vetted for any professional opportunities no matter what so Marky and everything else that would offend people would be found quite easily. No need to dig through forums or watch an idubbbz video. Plus, if Ian gets anything wrong or Marky doesn’t consent he could be opening himself up to litigation. Marky is a super touchy subject for Sam so that would be war.
The only smoking gun he could have is if Marky herself came forward and was part of it and added more context, confirmed allegations, etc. If Ian goes after Sam over Marky, I guarantee Sam is finding every piece of dirty laundry on Anisa and Ian and they know it. It would be the worst time because Sam is the most popular he’s ever been now. Who knows what shit Anisa’s sister has already told him. I’m sure Anisa has some skeletons too that haven’t been revealed.
Edit: AS PREDICTED, Anisa would start posting gym selfies after the callout. If only she could have made it there a few days ago to do her deadlift for 20k
And to think, she could have stuck it Froggy’s Jew wife. I guess she just didn’t have the time in that busy schedule two days ago. What a shame.
And OF COURSE she was too much of a coward to post this on twitter since they’re both being dragged everywhere over content cop and it’s weird to post a gym selfie when you just ducked a charity lifting challenge for a lot of money
