I remember stumbling across this guy. I sat through three atrocious videos of his. Finding out he's a pedophile is just all the more hilarious. The absolute state of male feminists.

He really isn't. As far as I can tell from the various stories, his mistakes were more along the lines of Sergeant Pilcher who set out to get the Rolling Stones and the Beatles. Which, if true, is something worth criticising but he's not a paedophile. That's just part of the unhelpful name-calling on all sides, like calling anyone to the right of Robespierre a Nazi.

It still makes him a piece of shit for looking for CP in the first place. It also makes him an even bigger POS for trying to pin it on others.

There is a distinction here.

Pilcher planting drugs on a celebrity did not make him a drug user or distributor. Setting up a space for child pornography, browsing child pornography and the proliferation of child pornography are all sexual exploitation of a minor. What Dan did makes him someone who sexually exploited children.

Obviously the only provable reasons are profit and winning an internet slap fight, as we can't know if any erections he got at the time were merely incidental. If we were writing a dissertation I'd understand the desire for precise labels, but informally I feel quite comfortable calling someone who sexually exploits children a pedophile.

If Dan is in the position of having to argue whether he's a pedophile or merely a man who has possessed and distributed child pornography, that's fine with me.
 
Captain of e-begging and poorly thought out YouTube videos has a message for Patreon on how to run their business

The e-grifters somehow all know how to run a successful business yet they’re begging for funds on Patreon and crying when funds are not sent out on time.
 
Dan is mad that someone other, twig-like bearded and balding hipster managed to be better at him when it comes to bilking NPC's out of their cash.
 
Dan recently took some potshots at Vsauce:

From the video description:
I found myself stonewalled on a number of other projects, to the point that I needed to make something just to get something done. More specifically I needed to finish something. Starting projects is easy, finishing them is hard. This isn't a thorough historiography of Vsauce, it's a story. It's not about the business of running the channel, the ways that it has fractured into sub-channels with multiple hosts and how the stand alone DONG channel functions as its own version of what Vsauce was, it's about the narrative created by the channel itself. Part of why I didn't go into all that is because the self-contained story is applicable to so many channels. It's a very prototypical story unique to the structure of YouTube itself. As much as there's a possible future where Mind Field is done, cancelled, over, whatever, and Vsauce goes on to do something else, something old, something new, there's as much a possible future that this is it, that when Mind Field is over so is Vsauce. Either way when you walk from one end of Vsauce to the other it's quite a journey.

Is it any good? I don't watch Dan's stuff on principle, but I have known him to produce good content, like his "Suicide Squad" video.

It's a decent video, though somewhat bizarre. He does do an interesting rundown of Vsauce's history, and how the channel has evolved and changed over the years, but it's difficult to really pin down where he's coming from, or what his motivations might have been for making such a video (like, is he making the video as someone who likes Vsauce and wants to pay homage to them, or is he making the video as someone who doesn't like Vsauce and wants to take a dig at them).
