It’s worse than that. Due to a mix-up with his MCN, he never rightfully received his play button. The kid decided to give it back, but because he was so nice about it, Linus told him to keep it and rebadge it with his own channel name. The community still harassed him.
I’m confused, how is that Linus’s fault?
Not his fault tbh, but that wasn’t the point I was making. Many basement dwellers over at LTT forums/reddit think Madison and GN and anyone else raising valid stuff are just “looking for attention” as if being harassed by the mob of incels is any good.
It’s not, but reddit is wild on this and brings up excuses like “he should have made a video showing they’re best friends” or whatever.
Linus did actually tweeted and talked a couple of minutes in a WAN show pleading his fanbase to leave this kid alone, but for reddit it was not enough.
Yeah Reddit (and the rest of the internet) do get wild sometimes
Probably could have done some more to help, but that’s the moral dilemma of looking back and seeing you always could’ve done more

While I don’t think it’s Linus’ fault that other people act like that, I do think he bears some responsibility in who and how he names people in his videos. A bit more consideration is necessary. It hasn’t come up a lot; Maybe the pool install company that screwed him over.
