As someone who taught Journalism this year, you took the words out of my mouth. “Minimize harm” is one of the core pillars. This schmuck is clout chasing, simple enough. Thanks for shedding light on this one.
@@Zack29810 lmfao how? the dude has never once claimed to have disabilities, he even confirmed he's just playing a character and riffing, usually when hes baked. and i didn't even know abt him until all this blew up
@@Zack29810 he never has said he had a disability. youre pretty much saying that if someone acts or looks a certain way they have a disability which is ableist asf.
Never heard of him before this but now he's got a new supporter. "addressing the elephant room, yes i got a hair cut" is all i needed to hear to love the dude, even in maybe his darkest moment he's cracking genuinelly funny jokes.
Honestly my conclusion as well. I know what the internet was like back then and I can make a fair assumption they've all said plenty of terrible things about gay people offline However in 2024 when it came down to it they had their boys back. Really heartwarming stuff from a group you wouldn't expect it from
"I'm a journalist and I think it's in the public interest that my stalking efforts be known publicly. You can also hear me smiling as I say this because I'm having fun"
@@yesormaybeno You might think so, but homophobic people exist dude. People are definitely upset with him being gay, regardless of whether we think it's bad to do so.
I caught his response live, It had me tearin up. He said plan A was gonna be to eat a bullet but he stopped mid way through before finishing the sentence, he was going through this mega viral explosion of fame while having this in the back of his mind the whole time I can't imagine the anxiety and fear he was and is going through knowing how people are on the internet. He thought all of his peers and fans and new friends were going to abandon him, this situation could've gone so badly. I'm so happy the majority of people aren't pieces of shit and have shown him support. Sketch is a goat.
@@sassy3197he didn’t. He was open about how he was feeling. He probably really was going to. There’s nothing wrong with talking about it. If he tried to say he was going to kill himself in order to convince chat of one thing or another that would be a different story.
@@sassy3197 if ever there was a situation that would crush you on this level it’s his. Just say you’re homophobic instead of hating on a guy going through a tough time
Telling him to come back is such a powerful thing to say and shows they really care. If I was in a dark place and someone told me to come back after I left, even insisting on it, I'd know that someone cared and would choose not to be alone. A text like that can save a person.
Bro this made me tear up😢The amount of horrible people who don't support him anymore doesn't even come close to those of us who will stand with him and give him the support he needs to be himself
him having to apologise??? for liking men??? for showing that online??? and this is somehow causing as much if not more uproar than the Doc talking to a minor??? HUH???
they want to drill it home that it's wrong to be this way..this is what happens when you have some people so hateful far-right literally take control of youtube and social media they hate it so you should hate it too..be one of the sheep..
he never apologized for anything??? when in the video did he once say sorry.... please let me know... hes just addressing the news. please delete this horrible comment.. idiot
right?? I know the situation is freaking serious and crappy, but Sketch had me chuckling along with each of his little quips. I am probably ten years older than him and I WISH I handled my problems that good
I mean, respectfully you are not him and i highly doubt you've done sexual OF content. Literally almost everyone who does sexual onlyfans content, man or woman, regrets that they did it afterwards. This isn't hyperbole, it's just a cold hard fact. So maybe you shouldn't interject your own unwarranted/unfounded opinions when someone else believes they themselves fucked up. Especially when the vast majority in his situation have immense regret for ever having done what he did.
@@Sephiroso. but that doesn’t change the fact that he’s feeling regret for no good reason, he hurt nobody! this is kinda like saying “people have survivors guilt so butt out of them thinking they’re in the wrong”
Dude who leaked this story is a POS, and that's all there is to it. There's no justification of him outing Sketch..period. I'm really glad that he has good friends to support him
@@74rocktiger74because if you can clearly tell that this person has attempted to erase that off the internet, whoever digs it up and exposes it is an asshole. full stop. clearly went out of his way to expose him in a way he no longer wanted to be anymore. it's just basic human decency. also, ludwig made a great point about reduction of harm in journalism. the guy who posted it knew FULL WELL that this would cause harm.
Faze Banks is truly a fucking W by being there for Sketch and checking to see if he’s okay. As well not caring for what his sexuality is, that’s a true friend right there. Also fucking W to the rest of the Faze boys as well for checking up on Sketch.☝️❤️
Not to minimize, but his reaction should absolutely be the baseline. That said, he got the rock and he sank it. I respect the hell out of someone that is there for the people they care about, through-and-through. The man is alright with me. :)
banks has always been the realest one in the game. he's been mixed up into some shady crowds and repents his wrong doings. i've met him a few times randomly around la. always the most humble. remembered me everytime he saw me and took time out of his day on now 4 occasions to ask about whats going on in my life. he seriously is someone i look up to as someone personality wise to be like.
That's a nice perspective. I think that it's important to remember we all grow at different rates, and to not always judge a person's character by a bad moment, but to always pay attention to the good moments. He makes mistakes, we all do. It's the "growth" part that is important. If he's growing, learning, changing, becoming better, then that's something I respect. This is one of those lighthouse acts, that show me everything I need to know about where this man is, and where he is going.
It really isn't though, it was a dark period of his life and now the weight has been lifted off his shoulders. He should open up about it, the anxiety has probably eaten him alive the last 2 years.
I mean, he did insinuate that he was at risk of offing himself, likely cause of the fear of how the internet might react or how it could impact his livelihood, but I guess the stream was pretty level headed? Hope hes doing ok rn :'(
If drake had a past like this everyone would be down for the leaks. Information doesn’t only deserve to get spread depending on if they are a like able person or not
ppl are “disappointed” in sketch when dr disrespect is right there…i’m reminded of how people were more concerned about diddy being gay than him being an abuser/trafficker/etc. i hope to see people lose their homophobia; all it does is distract from the people that actually are harming people, while in itself harming people. meanwhile all bro did was get his bag
Yes bro I feel bad for him too i mean sketch didn’t do anything wrong not in the slightest and people are actually mad not everyone just some I hope sketch just is able to push through it I still love his content and what he does

@@plesiolord1229 "most normies hate pornography" according to BYU, about 70% of american men and 40% of american women view porn at least once annually. most normies probably don't think critically about it much.
Edit: he made the video about Cody Hey Ludwig, are you going to make a mogul mail about Cody Ko? As a female fan of you, many commentary RUclipsrs, and a former fan of Cody this whole situation has been incredibly disheartening. The misogyny that’s allowing Cody to get away with these horrible allegations: people throwing Tana’s word to the side because she is not the perfect victim and not in good internet standings is revealing the nature of the “boys club” that is commentary RUclips. I hope you will not stay quiet about this. Edit: in his most recent video he says that he will be talking about Cody Ko, so (giving Ludwig the benefit of the doubt) I’m guessing he might be taking time to research or Cody’s team has been pressuring him not to say anything.
It's not really misogyny that's allowing Cody to get away with it, it's him hiding it. It's not revealing any "boy's club", it's just as much a girls club as it is a boys club. Male victims ain't exactly supported that much either.
I’m really hoping it’s a “I wanted to get the fact straight so I’m researching.” And not a “Tana is a liar, Cody is not a r*pist.” I hope it’s the first but apparently all RUclipsrs kinda suck so I don’t know anymore 🤷♀️
@@playfulwriter9796 I would also like to assume it’s this, Ludwig does try to make sure his Journalism is ethically and morally sound, including how much he continues to have a passion for it after graduating.
I still do think very little of Faze clan. At-fucking-least they aren't complete trash people. Scamming people with pump-and-dumps is down there on the shit-trashy-people-do list, but at least they know when to help a friend and not shy away from uncomfortable but life-saving situations. An evening of uncomfortableness FAR outweighs the years or decades of wishful thoughts and what-ifs.
@@devan90912I will say that Banks does do some shady things, but he has had a messed up life and a lot of experience stemming from that, so it’s good that’s he’s not too far gone to help his friend in a situation that could’ve blew back on him.
new faze is actually pretty cool. I know OGs might not like the current faze, but Banks really put in the work to see the new generation of faze succeed.
it goes to show most of these manosphere guys are homophobic only in ideology. bigotry relies on a mysterious other. only zealotry can overcome friendship. when it comes down to it, most people are bigots, not zealots. when faced with real life people, especially people they love, who belong to the out group, exceptions will be made.
looking forward and hoping we get to hear your thoughts on the whole cody and tana situation! please don’t help him stay silent in this, creators like you who have a relationship with him need to start speaking out.
I hate the fact that he feels he has to apologize for it. Even his friends have to reassure him that they just want to make sure he is safe and telling him he's still their homie. That's high octane friendship.
I’ve never seen Sketch’s stream but he seems like a good guy. Same for Banks, never knew much but it sounded like he saved that man that night. Genuine good friend.
Because a certain group of people can't see themselves in what Sketch has done but can absolutely see themselves in what Doc did. Hard to be outraged when they'd do the same.
The same people who back Dr Disrespect will say they that they “need to protect their kids” from people like Sketch. Well, I guess nobody ever accused bigots of having functional brains.

outing someones sexuality isn't journalism. Tabloids tried doing this in the 90's and people barely cared then. These days nobody cares meaning it isn't journalism.
idk where u lived but where i was from, it was deeply homophobic until the 2016s. if someone was outted as gay back in the 90s, youll likely get black listed (which is why ellen degeneres being openly gay was so big). did you know sodomy was illegal until the early 2000s? and the dont tell policy of being gay in the military was legal until 2013. but besides my nickpicking, i 100% agree with u. my first reaction was legit "really? thats it? he was a gay sex worker?" i was expecting something stupid but not /that/ stupid.
He shouldn't have released porn, or faked having autism if he wanted a child audience. It's ridiculous that people focus on the gay part when that isn't even the proble. I'm gay and saying this.
@@yurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-n4p News flash. People have the right to not like OF creators. I don’t follow any creators that do OF and will not. I’ll follow a gay creator but not one who’s broadcasting OF content. There’s a huge difference.
I need y'all to rewind to like 3:48 cuz the dude in "The Real Sketch" video literally skips [IMPORTANCE, IMPACT, OR CONSEQUENCE] when he's listing what prompted him to release it
some how the internet will cancel a gamer who happens to be gay or bi who was never open about being that cos that's his privet life but someone like dr.pdf gets off as well as way to Meany others with next to no drama
I’ve seen MANY comments saying he’s “Another Diddy” as if he did anything NEAR the level of what he or any other recent controversial person has. Genuinely insane.
His chat was being super supportive and wholesome, rightfully so told him there's no actual fuckup, it's HIS life and they love him and support him. Gives me hope for humanity.
😂just what he needs a half assed idiot with no actual morals it's definitely a mistake hence why he feels the way he does stop ignoring the human behind the flesh no ones perfect
@@jmtrv1029 Just a simple joke indicating the fact that there should be no apology for being gay/bi or doing OF and the people criticizing him or chastising him are losers, really not much more to it
3:56 the kid says “i went to school for journalism” as a student journalist, that is an utter *embarrassment* to the name of journalism. good journalism requires good ethics.
@@nilli111people being gay is happening in the government? Like people having sex in government owned buildings? Cause that is a problem, but like, has nothing to do with orientation. ???
Sketch should not feel like he has to apologize for anything whatsoever. He did not do anything wrong, he does not have any flaws. He does not have skeletons in his closet, he does not need to work on being a better person. It's so sad that someone cannot be themselves because from the fear of backlash from their own community. It's just heartbreaking.
And still a lot of people still blame sketch for posting those pics like it’s not his fault the person that tweet those pics thought that he should ruined a persons income and life and he made sketch almost kill HIMSELF because of those haters and tweets
Yeah no. Doing OF and getting pummeled by BBC for drug money is absolutely something wrong or at the very least indicates that there is something seriously wrong with the individual.
Posted them when he was having a rough time mentally and did scrub it off the internet to the best of his ability. It's honestly crazy how you're going to blame him even though he's literally done nothing wrong. He never advertised an OF, and he built a good career. Im a hundred percent that if it was straight people would not have cared this deeply about it. The "journalist" that posted it obviously did so with intent on trying to make fun of and make jokes out someones personal life. @@darylsdog9521
"Elephant in the room, I got a haircut" LMAO. Didn't really follow sketch until this news and that was a hilarious way to start the vid. Hope he's doing well and he gained a follower.
Homosexuality is wrong and he acknowledged it and moved on from it he is clearly sorry for what he did and it’s fine as long as he doesn’t start doing it again
The fact that not even a beloved person like Sketch can come out without being attacked, thinking something is wrong with himself, having to make excuses and contemplating if he wants to live says everything about the how horrible people can be to each other. Sketch is the man, just be who you are cause we love you bro!
dude he used to post videos on onlyfans of him getting sucked and fucked and now hes a streamer with 99% kid audience, like i support sketch and i like the dude but the backlash makes sense. i dont think he should be canceled or anything but it makes sense why social media is blowing it up and for you to act like its for "no reason" is delusional.
Somehow the discussion around an obvious pedophile in an influential position trying to meet a minor is less controversial than this. But i'm sure there's nothing to look into thereeeee
From doing OF content, he wanted to change from that because his addictions lead him there. He wasn't talking about his sexuality whether he's gay, bi, or straight
@@d.g.t.l6292Yeah I have friends who did sex work and while some don't regret it, most do. It's just not a very good feeling knowing you sold your body for money. Depends on your own personal values really. If someone can say they wouldn't mind their daughters/sons doing sex work good for them but that isn't the majority of people.
You don't need to change from addictions? really? he wasn't talking about his sexual orientation was pretty obvious he was talking about his "downfall"
@@d.g.t.l6292 that sounds like something between him and himself that his addictions led him there and he felt shame for it. as far as only fans goes, if an adult wants to make an only fans, and a consenting adult wants to pay for it, there's nothing wrong. should porn stars apologize for doing porn? If anything his apology should only be for himself, for making an onlyfans because he couldn't control his addictions. I'm an alcoholic, and hey It could be argued, that I have a porn addiction, I don't need to apologize to you for my addiction, that's between me myself and I, IM sorry to my self for my lack of self discipline. NO one deserves an apology from this man for this. he didn't hurt you.
I think this is important to say. And to use one of my favorite quotes... “We don’t not care. We care very much. We care about who you are and what you must’ve been going through. And from now on you don’t have to go through it all by yourself.” -Ted Lasso
8:36 reading all the supportive messages in chat throughout that clip really warmed my heart, Sketch really deserves all that love and support right now
Breaks my heart to hear this is getting so much controversy for something that isn’t shouldn’t be even a topic of interest, all of this talk of leak and controversy makes it sound like he did something wrong
They could have reached out to sketch for comment and input as well, not make a hit piece but actually do some journalism. The dude even hesitated in putting it out, so he had some kind of empathy or IMO he’s just saying that for bonus points accountability.
As a queer person and an ex-s3x worker, this could have been life ruining or life ending. I have never been a FaZe fan, but I'm so damn glad they were good humans about this situation. His past shouldn't matter, but it will, and I'm glad he has the support he'll need.
As you can see from the replies, this doesn't even really click in most people's minds. Most of us don't believe you need to be ashamed at all about having done this. But yeah, there surely are people out there who think differently. That sucks.
@surfingthedarkness Most of *us* don't, but we're collectively pretty left-wing and open-minded. We're not an accurate representation of the entire internet, or the corporate reactions to this information. Trust me, as absolutely fantastic as this comment section and Sketch's chat are, it's not going to be just a tiny number of people who treat him badly. He's going to lose opportunities. He's going to face harassment. It's awful, he did nothing wrong, but it's gonna suck. Absolutely f*ck the guy who outed this.
@@surfingthedarknessI completely agree, one thing I would say I may be wrong but the attitude towards sketch been outed for being a ex sex worker has been positive which is great, he shouldn’t feel ashamed. If this was a female content creator I feel the attitude is vastly different and the reaction would be different, this should be the same for both genders.
@nevergiveupbaby1720 Hi, woman here. No, it shouldn't matter. It shouldn't matter for him and it shouldn't matter for female content creators. Injustice for men does not create justice for women.
Man I hear people say “being gay is okay and normal down and we don’t need to talk about it anymore” or whatever. Then this stuff happens. It’s horrific to see many people in society act this way about what should be a nonissue. Poor guy. I have had some dark moments because of how other people feel about me being gay, too.
Sketch should never have to feel like he should APPOLOGIZE for liking men. The only people that care and hate on him for it are the bottom feeding hate filled losers in the world. Sketch you are you, and there is nothing you should feel wrong about.
Just letting you know, cause you seen like you'd apreciate it, Alot of gay people find being called "a" gay dehumanizing. They're a human, but they *are* gay. Right? Make sense?
no ones mad hes gay why is that what yall are grabbing onto?? its the fact he was a pornstar. Literally has nothing to do with being gay , no one has said anything about it being gay , theyd have the same reaction if he was a straight porn star. If any huge public figure was discovered to be a pornstar itd be a huge scandal , literally nothing to do with his sexuality
I don't really know this guy, but I'm still glad he's got a lot of people in his corner. I can't even imagine how embarrassed and exposed he feels, some complete stranger just ripped away a bandage-curtain hiding it from the world, without warning. And huge props to his friend who messaged him, Sketch was probably thinking of ending it at that moment. People suck sometimes, but thankfully there's also people who love us.
he's got an amazing support group and an amazing community, i can promise this shit won't effect him very much, i mean like he said in the video it's a huge weight off his shoulders

@@AlleonoriCat yeah Ludwig cut it out, but Sketch said his plan if this ever leaked was to "bite a [bullet]." The little shit who leaked it never cared to ask what would happen to Sketch afterwards, just diving for his 15 minutes of fame
Wtf is wrong with talking with a minor, people on the internet acting like kids have a fucking disease and you’re not allowed to interact with them lmao. Literally every person on earth has talked with a minor.
not covering codiddle ko even if u have nothing to add is crazy considering that's this entire channel. ur just supposed to regurgitate to your audience so important topics can spread.
Because the world is full of hateful, bigoted people. And the battle for equality is a constant, never ending struggle requiring a good deal of vigilance. It is sad but unsurprising that as time goes on people hold the hate in their hearts on issues where many people think 'werent we done with this 15 years ago?' but it won't ever be done, unfortunately.
it isnt , everyones moved past the doc thing cause i mean he admitted to it , are we supposed to talk about how much of a predator he is every single day? he lost his job at his company and said hes leaving the internet temporarily , theres nothing left to be said , this is just the next thing and honestly , not even close in size to the dr disrespect situation , not even slightly

Banks being there for him is one of the biggest steps I've seen him take in the 10+ years I've heard of Banks. I used to think Banks was a huge asshole but that idea of him has been completely flipped. Sketch is the goat, Banks is the goat, and fuck that knockoff youtube "journalist."
Banks was in a similar depressed state to the point where he left faze in the past because of addiction. But the main founders of faze didn’t want him to leave ever and still welcomed him back in when he was ready . It’s nice to see banks spread that same love he got from the guys back then to sketch now . Full circle moment 🫡

I mean, respectfully you are not him and i highly doubt you've done sexual OF content. Literally almost everyone who does sexual onlyfans content, man or woman, regrets that they did it afterwards. This isn't hyperbole, it's just a cold hard fact. So maybe you shouldn't interject your own unwarranted/unfounded opinions when someone else believes they themselves fucked up. Especially when the vast majority in his situation have immense regret for ever having done what he did.
Exactly. If he was the same guy who did that content, I would not give a sh*t. It’s not like he was texting minors or nothing.

Faze Banks is truly a fucking W by being there for Sketch and checking to see if he’s okay. As well not caring for what his sexuality is, that’s a true friend right there. Also fucking W to the rest of the Faze boys as well for checking up on Sketch.☝️❤️
Didn't really have an opinion on banks before but now I'm a fan ❤ W friend!

Not to minimize, but his reaction should absolutely be the baseline.
That said, he got the rock and he sank it. I respect the hell out of someone that is there for the people they care about, through-and-through.
The man is alright with me. :)
banks has always been the realest one in the game. he's been mixed up into some shady crowds and repents his wrong doings. i've met him a few times randomly around la. always the most humble. remembered me everytime he saw me and took time out of his day on now 4 occasions to ask about whats going on in my life. he seriously is someone i look up to as someone personality wise to be like.
That's a nice perspective.
I think that it's important to remember we all grow at different rates, and to not always judge a person's character by a bad moment, but to always pay attention to the good moments.
He makes mistakes, we all do.
It's the "growth" part that is important. If he's growing, learning, changing, becoming better, then that's something I respect.

Edit: he made the video about Cody
Hey Ludwig, are you going to make a mogul mail about Cody Ko? As a female fan of you, many commentary RUclipsrs, and a former fan of Cody this whole situation has been incredibly disheartening. The misogyny that’s allowing Cody to get away with these horrible allegations: people throwing Tana’s word to the side because she is not the perfect victim and not in good internet standings is revealing the nature of the “boys club” that is commentary RUclips. I hope you will not stay quiet about this.
Edit: in his most recent video he says that he will be talking about Cody Ko, so (giving Ludwig the benefit of the doubt) I’m guessing he might be taking time to research or Cody’s team has been pressuring him not to say anything.
It's not really misogyny that's allowing Cody to get away with it, it's him hiding it. It's not revealing any "boy's club", it's just as much a girls club as it is a boys club. Male victims ain't exactly supported that much either.
☝️
I’m really hoping it’s a “I wanted to get the fact straight so I’m researching.” And not a “Tana is a liar, Cody is not a r*pist.” I hope it’s the first but apparently all RUclipsrs kinda suck so I don’t know anymore 🤷♀️

The fact that it was Faze of all people who has in the past been called out for homophobia who was there to support Kylie just warms my heart.
it goes to show most of these manosphere guys are homophobic only in ideology. bigotry relies on a mysterious other. only zealotry can overcome friendship. when it comes down to it, most people are bigots, not zealots. when faced with real life people, especially people they love, who belong to the out group, exceptions will be made.

Because a certain group of people can't see themselves in what Sketch has done but can absolutely see themselves in what Doc did. Hard to be outraged when they'd do the same.

I don't really know this guy, but I'm still glad he's got a lot of people in his corner. I can't even imagine how embarrassed and exposed he feels, some complete stranger just ripped away a bandage-curtain hiding it from the world, without warning. And huge props to his friend who messaged him, Sketch was probably thinking of ending it at that moment.
People suck sometimes, but thankfully there's also people who love us.
he's got an amazing support group and an amazing community, i can promise this shit won't effect him very much, i mean like he said in the video it's a huge weight off his shoulders
EXPOSED?? HE PUT IT OUT
@@enklaev1933it's behind a paywall. the only people that can see it have to pay for it man. it was in the internet yes, but still it was private for most people unless they want to pay for gay prn🤷♀️
@@enklaev1933ur brain can’t b this small brother
No video on Cody ko?
The people wanting to cancel sketch are the same people making excuses for dr disrespect
Fr hes just gay and did s*x work
The conversation everyone is avoiding is that sketch ran in circles largely dominated by African American culture which is entirely homophobic. Every random hating on sketch talks like one, even if they aren’t African American
POC are a violent danger to LGBT people :^)
Homophobic POC every time
It's always the homophobic incels
3:48 I like how he skipped "Importance, impact, or consequence," since it's not important to share lmao
and the most likely consequence was that the dude offs himself. Truly a pillar of journalism that dude
@@AlleonoriCat yeah Ludwig cut it out, but Sketch said his plan if this ever leaked was to "bite a [bullet]." The little shit who leaked it never cared to ask what would happen to Sketch afterwards, just diving for his 15 minutes of fame
THATS WHAT IM SAYING 👀
i noticed that too. this information has zero importance
Dr disrespect gets accused of talking with a minor: ok
Sketch reveals he’s gay: OHH MYYyYY GOYoiD
Wtf is wrong with talking with a minor, people on the internet acting like kids have a fucking disease and you’re not allowed to interact with them lmao. Literally every person on earth has talked with a minor.
@@eiavops4576 he talked sexually with a minor he admitted it

not covering codiddle ko even if u have nothing to add is crazy considering that's this entire channel. ur just supposed to regurgitate to your audience so important topics can spread.
Ngl this makes Sketch way cooler
who let this guy try to cook 💀
@@codyteague6979cody you are too young to be on this app
That's what I thought !
Legit, before this I hadn't seen a single clip of him Now I'm getting ones of him doing gang signs 😭
interesting maybe
"I did not have sexual relations with that man! I'm just kidding. I did. Possibly." this guy's hilarious Im almost tempted to check his stuff lmao
Why is this getting more hate then the doctor disrespect situation
Because the world is full of hateful, bigoted people. And the battle for equality is a constant, never ending struggle requiring a good deal of vigilance. It is sad but unsurprising that as time goes on people hold the hate in their hearts on issues where many people think 'werent we done with this 15 years ago?' but it won't ever be done, unfortunately.
Real shit I saw this nga in some drama I thought he did sumn illegal😂so what he gay ngas be so weird for no reason
Because sadly the internet says homophobic = funny
How tf this guy get hated more than DrDisrespectingMinors
it isnt , everyones moved past the doc thing cause i mean he admitted to it , are we supposed to talk about how much of a predator he is every single day? he lost his job at his company and said hes leaving the internet temporarily , theres nothing left to be said , this is just the next thing and honestly , not even close in size to the dr disrespect situation , not even slightly
gay = bad
Address the Cody Ko situation please.
thought that man is chill, what’s going on?
@@shizuevoltamHe had relations with Tana Mongeau when she was 17 and he was 25, apparently Tana has been saying this for years but Kody Ko and his team has done unfortunately such a good job at censoring it only recently have people started talking about it
@@shizuevoltamtana mongeau exposed Cody for having intercourse with her when she was 17. She’s been saying it for years, but it resurfaced a few weeks ago. There are several eye witnesses and there are records of people claiming they warned Cody about Tana being a minor but he didn’t care.
+ apparently one of his best friends is a r*pist and Cody knowingly kept being his friend.
Banks being there for him is one of the biggest steps I've seen him take in the 10+ years I've heard of Banks. I used to think Banks was a huge asshole but that idea of him has been completely flipped. Sketch is the goat, Banks is the goat, and fuck that knockoff youtube "journalist."
Yeah I thought banks was big on anti lgbt like doc, tatman and the other shooter guys.
yeah, who knows what would've happened if he didn't reach out. huge respect
Banks was in a similar depressed state to the point where he left faze in the past because of addiction. But the main founders of faze didn’t want him to leave ever and still welcomed him back in when he was ready . It’s nice to see banks spread that same love he got from the guys back then to sketch now . Full circle moment 🫡
I don't even care about Banks opinions man, he proved he is a good good dude at heart
I don't care wat dude did that's his business, but I can never call someone like that a goat. That gets stripped for sure, but don't hate the guy
being outed and contemplating suicide, horrible situation and all my love to Sketch
glad to see he is safe
The reason he "sat on the story" for 2 weeks, was the fact that it wouldn't get as much attention with the doc stuff going on
Despicable human
Lud you’ve made a few videos with Cody you gotta address the allegations if you’re going to grandstand about how you’re a ‘real’ journalist
Man sketch's friends are seriously great for looking out for him like they did
