Decided to watch Ethan's video response to Keem. Here's my points:
1. The usual "Duuhh I didn't say I said you killed Etika, muh strongman argument (I know it's supposed to be strawman but I don't fucking care since nobody uses it right anymore and just using it for the sake of winning arguments)". Oh fuck off, majority of the video was about Etika and even you said after Keem told Etika to go "jump off a cliff", he jumped off a bridge. And before this clip you even showed the stuff about Fousey and Bashur who are also suicidal, are you taking me for a fool? I like how you bring up Boogie for this one.
2. His argument about even though he indeed made a podcast about how he roasted Fousey, he did bring up a clip which he said Fousey is bipolar and he needs help. Okay fair, valid point. Even then, he changed the topic immediately to about how Keem "assassinated" him. I can go on about how anyone's a hypocrite in this situation but I'd rather not go further into this loophole. This part isn't bad from Ethan.
3. Elaborates more about the Bashur thing and more stuff like Tobuscus, DaddyOFive and Onision, all are unrelated to the response, just to point out there's so much stuff Ethan have about Keem but can't fit in one video ("Why am I still getting hate?"). Not sure why he wants to do so if he can just put it in the Content Nuke video to begin with. Oh hey, finally a mention about Pyrocynical and some stuff about Keemstar from 2019 and this year, so I'm gonna give more points for this. This is probably the best part from Ethan for this video.
4. I like how Ethan never even addressed about how he got involved about Shoenice, and just conveniently brings up the part about how Keem accused Shoenice of being a pedophile/whatever that is.
At the end of the video, Ethan implies he wants Keemstar to be deplatformed in the end. Frankly I really don't mind seeing Keemstar to actually get the LifeInATent treatment but as anyone else says in this thread, it will set a bad precedent for the future in YouTube.
Overall, I frankly find this video slightly better compared with the Content Nuke video but that's not saying much even though my major gripe is Ethan screeching about "muh strongman arguments". Keemstar's response video was expectedly not that great especially he's not really good at making response videos and the clips in Keem's response video aren't really putting him in a good light. Still gonna dock points for this for conveniently leaving out Leafy and GradeA.
