I disagree. As I've said before, the enraging part of the Killstream was that he lied to everyone's faces because he knew how he'd be perceived, and as much of a bitch move as just coming out and saying "Yep, flagged your ass, you dipshit bully-jerks, hope YT kicks you to the curb," would have been, at least he'd be standing by his actions. It's hard to say what would have been better than rolling over after the big reveal, but trying to turn internet tough guy after getting unmanned in that manner wasn't it either.
Which brings us to today. Matt does a pathetic job trying to turn boulders into a joke, and goes internet tough guy on people who point out his history of being a little bitch. And it looks sad. He tries to start shit with people bigger than him while calling them irrelevant and looks like a tiny dog trying to attack a bear.
Honestly, the only way he could have gotten through that was to eat some serious humble pie (not the bullshit, too late, on Tumblr, only-because-I-got-caught-and-oh-shit-my-channel's-gonna-die "apologies") and then recognize that he was going to be hit with shit for the rest of his time on the internet over it. That maybe, if he actually made an effort to focus on making good content and weathered the people going "wait a minute, isn't this guy a big false flagger" rather than trying (and failing) to internet slap-fight them, maybe

maybe he could start to see growth again.
