I just did a video on this creep and the amount of times I spent last night saying aloud "The sociology major word salad isn't impressive, my guy" is astonishing.

@@imnotinsanebisquit Yeah, in 2021 when the news first broke, he hosted a 24 hour Elden Ring livestream and fundraised over $100K. As for delivery, I'm unsure. Any failure to deliver fundraised profits/keeping them for ones' self is usually met with immediate scrutiny and prosecution (George Santos is facing a fate like that right now). So do I think he likely sent all of it to the appropriate charity? Probably. Is it at all possible that he kept it for himself? Sure, he lacked fastidiousness enough to showcase a loli/bestiality folder on stream, and he's arrogant enough to dismiss all criticisms as 'being taken out of context', so it wouldn't shock me at all.

His 'context' video was ridiculous, all he focused on were the 'optics' of the things he said and how they 'looked', he never once admitted that his past behavior was actually wrong...including when he 'refused to apologize' to a girl that he sexually harassed for a long time...but said he was willing to bring her on stream because it would be 'easy to reduce her to a pathetic sobbing mess'. Twitch was smart enough to yank this guy off the platform...and given the fact that animal abuse videos and this freak are still allowed on RUclips, is making me ask a LOT of questions about the CEO and decision makers at Google.

@@neoentertainment4957 Yep, listening to his fans defend him is even worse, because as ridiculous as he is, he's still more intelligent than they are. The comments section of the video is exactly what I expected, a sample of sycophants calling all of the channels criticizing his behavior "alt-right channels". He's still hung up on the 'alt-right' crap when that hasn't been relevant since 2017. Reason? It probably stings like Hell to Vaush that his sexual interests are seen by the vast majority as degenerate/beyond the pale, and in his mind, he is perfect and an intellectual powerhouse, so it's just lazy/easier to let his fans smear his critics as 'alt-right' or 'white supremacists'. The cherry on top is how in recent time, he spoke out against Loli and said "Neo Nazis are into Loli because they want a submissive tradwife to dominate". Just another episode of the Projection show, featuring Vaush telling on himself through a VERY large microphone.

Typically don’t agree with everything Acheeto says, but he is entirely correct that the bigger issue is that CP is just wrong. Pedophilia is a massive issue, and has been in every decadent age and society. Pornography is a GARGANTUAN industry built off of abuse whether the people in it are being paid well or not, consenting or not, and to combine that with children and encourage sexual abuse of children is disgusting.
Its a good thing you don't agree with everyone someone says. means you're not biased. I'm a conservative. Doesn't mean I agree with everything within my political party.

CP can technically exist without abuse, if the individual consents (i.e. no coercion or self-release) to the materials release. Just playing devil's advocate to your reasoning not the morality of CP.
One thing that really bothers me why couldn't he just say "oh CP bad, but child labor good? Why not ban both" instead he says leagalize both when what I suggested gets the same point across without looking bad on my end. Not like that helps either because of the clip where he said there is a possibility for a minor and adult to have a positive sexual relationship, any point he has to make falls apart there and he continues to tip toe around that statement. He keeps saying its taken out of context but he gives people the wrong context by rephrasing what he actually said. How does he have any fans is mind blowing.
I like how he claims he was taken out of context, and then when he gives the "context" it's something that h3h3 and other people have already criticized him for

Conflict diamonds ARE illegal; Clean Diamond Trade Act of 2003. So not only was the argument horrible, but he (in a perfect demonstration of how he never knows what he is talking about beyond the aesthetics) is actually wrong in the presentation.
Fair enough, but that does "beg the question" why are other conflict minerals and their products as well as products of slave labor not? Incoherent, no?
Not as as it relates to CP - if fact, it is directly consistent with that AND as a matter of fact we also sanction countries as it relates to human rights abuses. Now, are we 100% with that. No, because there are a litany of factors that exist in creating ethical frameworks of the consumption of certain things, i.e. those things that are necessary to operation of the economy at either a local or global level... There is no ethical framework that one could forward as it relates to the manufacture and consumption of CP. It is an absolutely terrible argument to use CP as the reference point.
I did address it - you simply don't like the answer. Again, as it relates to *ethical* (read: not the same as "moral") considerations, unfortunately, there are some bad things that are tolerated that, in an ideal world, shouldn't be. The reality is that we do not live in an ideal world, and unless you, me, Vaush or anyone else is willing to start paying for the labor required to make these things that we need at the same level that we, ourselves, expect to be paid, there is always going to be this issue which, yes, is a moral issue. I don't think that anyone with any sort of reasonable disposition would disagree with anything I just said. But THAT is not the issue as it relates to Vaush, is it? This is a grand deflection away from the reality that the only way that one could make the sort of argument he did - remember, it is not just bad, but it is actually outright wrong on matters of fact - is to have a disconnect as it relates to the matter of CP. That is the point that this whole discussion, each time it comes up, seems to have someone drive away from and then do the "debate bro" push up of the glasses and "Well, akshuly..." No - you, literally, have to harm a child physically and emotionally to make CP and the point of the product is that physical and emotional harm. There is no moral or ethic framework where you can justify that. Bad comparison. Full stop. There is ZERO reason to continue to have the discourse unless the point is to sanitize the reality that Vaush is creepy AF.
@@jonathanfigliuolo8754 Well now we're just playing with semantics. In this context we need to treat ethics as morals because to consider the former in their purely prescriptive sociological sense of rules determining acceptable conduct is a cop out on issues of this magnitude. We need to analyze WHY these rules exist in the state they do (I e. incoherent) not just accept and that they are the way they are bloviating all the while. What an absolute waste of time and energy. So moral rectitude resides in the creases of a few Benjamins? Shrug it off as unfortunate so one can sleep at night? Now we're getting somewhere. How much is too much (effort, cash, time, whatever metric(s) you wish to use)? At what point does it become acceptable to no longer truly care (omission)? No need to bring up Vaush, I don't really care about him or his opinions, they are not material to our dialectic. FWIW, a child does not need to be harmed for CP to exist--minors can (fraudulently) disseminate underage content of themselves via routes such as Only fans.
28:18 Vaush : "You could defensibly adopt an age of consent set to the same level as it curently set to in England or France." Fellow frog here. The age of consent in France is 15. It is called "Majorité sexuelle" (sexual majority). Yes, a civil minor can have sex with an adult if the minor is 15 or more. That being said, there are a lot of legal details surrounding the age of consent in France. An adult who has sex with a consenting minor of 15 or more can still be charged for what we call "corruption de mineur" (corruption of minor), wich is more or less the same thing as statutory rape in the USA. If the victims (the minor and or parents) can prove that the minor was manipulated in any way to have sex with the adult, the accused is convicted. It is considered as a crime. And if the adult was in contact with the minor via internet, it's considered as an aggravated crime. Also, a minor of 15 or plus can't do pornography or prostitute themselves (prostitution is allowed in France if it's just transactionnal sex between two people). So no, we don't see adults having sex with teenagers as a good thing. We have laws that recognize that there might be some grey areas but that's all. And that's not even a thing set in stone, we have several times in the last 50 (or even just 20) years add some new specifications to that kind of laws.
vaush is literally the type of arguer that says a whole bunch of nothing. he tries to use these seemingly 'smart' words to add to his sentences but if you have a good enough vocabulary you realize he could've simplified the sentence so much instead of writing a whole essay for 1 point
yeah genuinely smart people don’t do that unless they’re trying to obfuscate something instead of making it clear lol that’s the whole point of jargon unless you need it to be precise or as shorthand in a professional context!
Vaush is a sophist. Remember he said to a water is different in mexico because they call it agua. Also he preaches about market socialism and worker co ops but doesn't even practice what he preaches.
I went to high school w/ a guy who was exactly like Vaush. Guy was on the debate team, and would perform winded filibusters about socialism, totalitarianism, Obama, etc.... in Anatomy and Physiology class. He's now a blogger for a Bernie Sanders page for his career. If it weren't for RUclips, Vaush would be still be living w/ his parents and broke.
the biggest thing about the ‘cp vs blood diamonds’ thing… cp, the abuse IS THE PRODUCT, they are inseparable because a blood diamond, it may have been say mined through ‘abusive conditions’ or whatever but the product is the diamond, it is the fact that you have a diamond on your ring or whatever, cp you are WATCHING AND TAKING PLEASURE IN THE ABUSE
@@UnityAgainstJewishEvil it’s been so annoying to hear some of these people defining why it’s wrong, instead of just pointing out that anything to do with children and sex is wrong. And I mean that in any context, even if you mean well, or you’re trying to have a constructive conversation the fact that we have to have these conversations is objectively wrong.
@@larrybanda2716 I was actually shocked by the amount of people defending it or trying to deflect. It’s already become far more normalized than I’d realized, and it’s both terrifying and infuriating to see.
This all stems from a belief that the only things that are evil are things that the state decides are illegal. It's a lack of objective principle. CP is wrong BECAUSE it's CP. Not because of whatever child labor laws the state have decided on. Cartoon or AI CP is still morally wrong, because it is CP. Purely utilitarian morality will lead you to some really dark places pretty quickly
Id like to remind everyone of something as an ex fan of his that watched his content for years. Vaush believes it is morally permissible to lie to any extent if it means to achieve a good outcome, and he also believes that his career is incontrovertibly a force for good. Therefore he is perfectly fine to lie as much as possible to save his career. Knowing that, why should anyone take Vaush at his word here? He has every incentive to lie in this case.
The difference is the intention. The person that buys diamonds might support suffering indirectly, but the motivation for buying it was that they like diamonds. If you watch CP, your motivation is enjoying the immoral act. That would be like buying diamonds to support slav*ry and then trowing the diamonds away.
The basic problem with Vaush is that his upbringing in Beverly Hills means he is unable to understand the problems of the working class and he is unable to put these in a realistic relationship to social problems. His existence has never been threatened by unemployment medical bills, drug addiction or homelessness. And because of a lack of self-reflection, he has never been able to self-critically analyze the bourgeois class to which he belongs. This leads him to equate the end of slavery with the implementation of gay marriage. He is not a socialist but a social democrat who grew up in good circumstances. Real socialists should reach out and educate the working class even if they are Trump supporters and not try to align themselves with people like Vaush.
You could never confirm whether a t-shirt was made by a slave, machine, whatever 100% of the time. You can always confirm that cheese pizza involved the abuse of a child. What a desperate comparison.
Vaush: "Listen guys, I am not a pedo. I only accidentally downloaded loli hentai - AT LEAST TWICE - accidentally of course. I also mistakenly tried to rationalize and normalize child porn by comparing it to a completely unrelated subject of proxy child labor through global trade (ignoring all the steps taken towards trying to remove vendors using it). I also conveniently just made beastiality sex jokes and pedo jokes in private, coincidentally the two things appearing in those accidental, manually downloaded images. But trust me bro, I am totally not a pedo, take my word for it."
For conflict diamonds, it is prohibited for the sale or trade of conflict diamonds in many countries including the United States so even back then his points make no sense!
Not only would we have to believe that he ACCIDENTALLY did this, but we would also have to believe that this is THE FIRST TIME that he ACCIDENTALLY did this! Because nobody makes this “mistake” twice. No way in heck.

I hate this so much. He's so hypocritical, if he's so worried about "unethical consumerism" then he should just get rid of almost everything he owns. There's NO WAY to compare child labor to child sexual abuse, and the deliberate trading and production of it. The two are not comparable, if you're talking about "consumerism". No one likes the direct comparisons, BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT RELATABLE? and also imagine hearing yourself say that you don't think someone should go to jail for having CP and NOT thinking it's creepy???
I think that all of Vaush's debates after the early years have been designed to be easy lay-ups to make himself look more effective than he actually is...and less like a creep. And he somehow managed to fail that.
That’s exactly how he tries to set up debates he’s in, and when it doesn’t work he plays dirty. In his debate with King Critical he literally muted KC for several minutes without telling as he was arguing his side, because Vaush was completely unable to defend against his points. KC didn’t even realize what had happened until after the fact, when he wasn’t getting any responses.
Here do you wanna know how to beat his argument maybe one percent of goods are made with child labor while 100% of CP is made with child labor. It’s very simple.
People also should point out a falacy with argument when it comes to chocolate or laptops.... people don't know exactly where everything comes from, if they did, they would make a more ethical choice. Like if you know one chocolate bar is made from child labor and another is not, you'd go with the one not made from child labor.... pedophillia is entirely unethical in its very nature, there is no ethical option.
I am not sure why I need to explain this to Vaush but although phones and cloths are created unethically, the final product is an inanimate object. In the case of CP, the end product depicts the abuse of another human and it's existence can serve as humiliation and other physiological abuses to the victim.
I like how far-right creators got banned from RUclips and Twitter during the same time period this guy was openly defending CP and admitting to jerking off to lolicon. Tells me more about the people who run these tech platforms than it does Vaush, if I'm being honest. Vaush has never hidden this type of degeneracy, he puts it on full display.
It's funny that Vaush fans can't admit he's wrong. They will admit everything Vaush does, it was bad, it was gross, etc But because he hasn't straight stated that he's completely wrong, they won't go that far either.
he went throwing thos boulders in his tiny glass house... and now look.. he missed and shattered the walls...... i knew a long time ago this would happen. i just didnt know how it would happen... now i see 🤣🤣
I've never owned a cell phone, and I've been just fine. It's not required. Sure, it does make things easier for most People, but it is possible to live without one. I don't even feel like I'm handicapped by it either. I do however, have a computer, instead of carrying a pocket computer with me I make it so I have to go to it instead.
28:25 in France the age of consent is 15 (for two minors). If an adult has sex with a minor (less than 18) that's rape, if an adult as sex with a minor (that's 15+) that's still illegal.

@@wanderingidle4848 My point is that he did include the context. People keep saying he didn't, but he did and the supposed "context" still doesn't make Vaush look any better. It's just as easy to make fun of as the original statement.
@@AvgSpy If he watched and understood the context he wouldn’t still be saying that Vaush was defending CP. If all you’re saying is that it was OPTICALLY bad, then I agree, as does literally everyone.
Vaush and his fans are beyond saving. Utterly irredeemable.
Fact is, all of that "immoral" stuff Vaush is comparing CP to can be done morally. CP can't
Exactly! for example we can have robots mine the cobalt for us instead of children.
@@Raccon_Detective. Yep
@@Raccon_Detective.if we had the technology to automate large scale mining, we would have been able to find a material that’s a less environmentally destructive alternative to cobalt
@@simonpetrikov3992 it's just an example. We can also have cobalt mined with better working condition and without children
Conflict diamonds ARE illegal; Clean Diamond Trade Act of 2003. So not only was the argument horrible, but he (in a perfect demonstration of how he never knows what he is talking about beyond the aesthetics) is actually wrong in the presentation.
Fair enough, but that does "beg the question" why are other conflict minerals and their products as well as products of slave labor not? Incoherent, no?
Not as as it relates to CP - if fact, it is directly consistent with that AND as a matter of fact we also sanction countries as it relates to human rights abuses.
Now, are we 100% with that. No, because there are a litany of factors that exist in creating ethical frameworks of the consumption of certain things, i.e. those things that are necessary to operation of the economy at either a local or global level... There is no ethical framework that one could forward as it relates to the manufacture and consumption of CP.
It is an absolutely terrible argument to use CP as the reference point.
@@jonathanfigliuolo8754 I'm not arguing the CP point, only the lack of consistency, which you've carefully skirted addressing.
I did address it - you simply don't like the answer. Again, as it relates to *ethical* (read: not the same as "moral") considerations, unfortunately, there are some bad things that are tolerated that, in an ideal world, shouldn't be.
The reality is that we do not live in an ideal world, and unless you, me, Vaush or anyone else is willing to start paying for the labor required to make these things that we need at the same level that we, ourselves, expect to be paid, there is always going to be this issue which, yes, is a moral issue.
I don't think that anyone with any sort of reasonable disposition would disagree with anything I just said.
But THAT is not the issue as it relates to Vaush, is it? This is a grand deflection away from the reality that the only way that one could make the sort of argument he did - remember, it is not just bad, but it is actually outright wrong on matters of fact - is to have a disconnect as it relates to the matter of CP.
That is the point that this whole discussion, each time it comes up, seems to have someone drive away from and then do the "debate bro" push up of the glasses and "Well, akshuly..."
No - you, literally, have to harm a child physically and emotionally to make CP and the point of the product is that physical and emotional harm. There is no moral or ethic framework where you can justify that.
Bad comparison. Full stop. There is ZERO reason to continue to have the discourse unless the point is to sanitize the reality that Vaush is creepy AF.
@@jonathanfigliuolo8754 Well now we're just playing with semantics. In this context we need to treat ethics as morals because to consider the former in their purely prescriptive sociological sense of rules determining acceptable conduct is a cop out on issues of this magnitude. We need to analyze WHY these rules exist in the state they do (I e. incoherent) not just accept and that they are the way they are bloviating all the while. What an absolute waste of time and energy.
So moral rectitude resides in the creases of a few Benjamins? Shrug it off as unfortunate so one can sleep at night? Now we're getting somewhere. How much is too much (effort, cash, time, whatever metric(s) you wish to use)? At what point does it become acceptable to no longer truly care (omission)?
No need to bring up Vaush, I don't really care about him or his opinions, they are not material to our dialectic.
FWIW, a child does not need to be harmed for CP to exist--minors can (fraudulently) disseminate underage content of themselves via routes such as Only fans.
I haven’t finished the video but his response reminds me a lot of yanderedev’s apology video after he got exposed for being inappropriate with minors
Yeah. Except that one had real consequences on others
28:18 Vaush : "You could defensibly adopt an age of consent set to the same level as it curently set to in England or France."
Fellow frog here. The age of consent in France is 15. It is called "Majorité sexuelle" (sexual majority). Yes, a civil minor can have sex with an adult if the minor is 15 or more.
That being said, there are a lot of legal details surrounding the age of consent in France.
An adult who has sex with a consenting minor of 15 or more can still be charged for what we call "corruption de mineur" (corruption of minor), wich is more or less the same thing as statutory rape in the USA. If the victims (the minor and or parents) can prove that the minor was manipulated in any way to have sex with the adult, the accused is convicted. It is considered as a crime. And if the adult was in contact with the minor via internet, it's considered as an aggravated crime.
Also, a minor of 15 or plus can't do pornography or prostitute themselves (prostitution is allowed in France if it's just transactionnal sex between two people).
So no, we don't see adults having sex with teenagers as a good thing. We have laws that recognize that there might be some grey areas but that's all. And that's not even a thing set in stone, we have several times in the last 50 (or even just 20) years add some new specifications to that kind of laws.
cool info dude. thanks a bunch!!
i know nothing of france's legal system so it was interesting. thank you
vaush is literally the type of arguer that says a whole bunch of nothing. he tries to use these seemingly 'smart' words to add to his sentences but if you have a good enough vocabulary you realize he could've simplified the sentence so much instead of writing a whole essay for 1 point
yeah genuinely smart people don’t do that unless they’re trying to obfuscate something instead of making it clear lol
that’s the whole point of jargon unless you need it to be precise or as shorthand in a professional context!
The quintessential sophist
Vaush is a sophist. Remember he said to a water is different in mexico because they call it agua. Also he preaches about market socialism and worker co ops but doesn't even practice what he preaches.
@@jonathanathor117 he even got the word wrong and called it "aqua". His opponent corrected him haha. You picked the best example of his sophistry
I went to high school w/ a guy who was exactly like Vaush. Guy was on the debate team, and would perform winded filibusters about socialism, totalitarianism, Obama, etc.... in Anatomy and Physiology class. He's now a blogger for a Bernie Sanders page for his career. If it weren't for RUclips, Vaush would be still be living w/ his parents and broke.
who would have thought that wearing clothes is a gateway drug to owning CP lol
I don’t think Vaush realizes his arguments are logical fallacies. Which fallacies, I’m unsure, but yeah, definitely twisted.
There's a lot of 'false equivalence' fallacy in here with how he accuses hypocrisy based on things that have clear differences.
"I don't know how his arguments are flawed, but I'm certain they are."
This "context video" was a masterclass in gaslighting
And the fans that are still defending him have fallen for it.
vaush the type of guy to say "well she's drawn like a child but shes actually a 1000 year old dragon queen goblin thing!"
His “context” never makes anything he says better lmao he only makes himself look even worse than before
FR 💀💀
And his fans that are still defending him still get gaslighted by it.
he will lie and deflect,I feel very sure of that,anything to get attention off of himself just like onision does.
Vaush’s age dating range is half his age, then halve that number
So a quarter

Goodbye from Mount Vernon
the biggest thing about the ‘cp vs blood diamonds’ thing… cp, the abuse IS THE PRODUCT, they are inseparable because a blood diamond, it may have been say mined through ‘abusive conditions’ or whatever but the product is the diamond, it is the fact that you have a diamond on your ring or whatever, cp you are WATCHING AND TAKING PLEASURE IN THE ABUSE
Parents lock your children up, Vaush is still not in jail.
CP is not wrong because it’s child abbuse. It’s wrong because it’s CP. it would be wrong no matter the circumstances
THANK YOU. The amount of people I’ve seen trying to over-complicate this in order to defend this dude makes me feel like I’m going nuts.
@@UnityAgainstJewishEvil it’s been so annoying to hear some of these people defining why it’s wrong, instead of just pointing out that anything to do with children and sex is wrong. And I mean that in any context, even if you mean well, or you’re trying to have a constructive conversation the fact that we have to have these conversations is objectively wrong.
@@larrybanda2716
I was actually shocked by the amount of people defending it or trying to deflect. It’s already become far more normalized than I’d realized, and it’s both terrifying and infuriating to see.
This all stems from a belief that the only things that are evil are things that the state decides are illegal. It's a lack of objective principle.
CP is wrong BECAUSE it's CP. Not because of whatever child labor laws the state have decided on. Cartoon or AI CP is still morally wrong, because it is CP.
Purely utilitarian morality will lead you to some really dark places pretty quickly
one is a product that sometimes has abuse.
one is abuse
12:26 is really funny but also a bit true. Weird how often that happens
1:20 - blood diamonds are a myth as much the heightened price of said diamonds.
Id like to remind everyone of something as an ex fan of his that watched his content for years.
Vaush believes it is morally permissible to lie to any extent if it means to achieve a good outcome, and he also believes that his career is incontrovertibly a force for good. Therefore he is perfectly fine to lie as much as possible to save his career.
Knowing that, why should anyone take Vaush at his word here? He has every incentive to lie in this case.
The difference is the intention.
The person that buys diamonds might support suffering indirectly, but the motivation for buying it was that they like diamonds.
If you watch CP, your motivation is enjoying the immoral act. That would be like buying diamonds to support slav*ry and then trowing the diamonds away.
The first point he trys to defend in the video is so wild to me because in the case of cp, the exploitation literally IS the product
i love this type of intro
43:43
"Stop gooning, stop gooning, please stop gooning..."
LOL
“listen, what i did was stupid, butttttttt…”
Vaush the kinda guy you laugh with because you think he's making a joke... too bad he's not
Yeah he's probably the guy that says "you don't wanna see my search history" and then he's the only one laughing
Nah, you laugh at him because he himself is the joke...and the punchline is child rape.
14:04 "Trafficking is necessary." -Acheeto 2024
Acheeto is so real for that.
You don't accidentally click save. He's equating his carelessness to accidentally showing it, not having it.
The basic problem with Vaush is that his upbringing in Beverly Hills means he is unable to understand the problems of the working class and he is unable to put these in a realistic relationship to social problems.
His existence has never been threatened by unemployment medical bills, drug addiction or homelessness.
And because of a lack of self-reflection, he has never been able to self-critically analyze the bourgeois class to which he belongs. This leads him to equate the end of slavery with the implementation of gay marriage. He is not a socialist but a social democrat who grew up in good circumstances. Real socialists should reach out and educate the working class even if they are Trump supporters and not try to align themselves with people like Vaush.
also worth noting one has to go out of their way for cheese pizza, meanwhile real world factors lead us to purchase phones and clothing.
You could never confirm whether a t-shirt was made by a slave, machine, whatever 100% of the time. You can always confirm that cheese pizza involved the abuse of a child. What a desperate comparison.
“You have to understand…” no YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND. JAIL. 👩🏻⚖️
“14 year olds are stupid” and yet vaush your arguing for CP really?
Vaush: "Listen guys, I am not a pedo. I only accidentally downloaded loli hentai - AT LEAST TWICE - accidentally of course. I also mistakenly tried to rationalize and normalize child porn by comparing it to a completely unrelated subject of proxy child labor through global trade (ignoring all the steps taken towards trying to remove vendors using it).
I also conveniently just made beastiality sex jokes and pedo jokes in private, coincidentally the two things appearing in those accidental, manually downloaded images. But trust me bro, I am totally not a pedo, take my word for it."
Vaush doesn’t need to just make an apology, he needs an intervention over him being a porn addict 💀
For conflict diamonds, it is prohibited for the sale or trade of conflict diamonds in many countries including the United States so even back then his points make no sense!
Not only would we have to believe that he ACCIDENTALLY did this, but we would also have to believe that this is THE FIRST TIME that he ACCIDENTALLY did this! Because nobody makes this “mistake” twice. No way in heck.
The "context" which he cries about being ignored. Is essentially him justifying CP
As a 14 year old I can confirm I would not support child pedophelia

i'm not familiar with vaush, but someone that looks like him talking about CP, age of consent, or children in general sets off alarm bells in my head.
4:36 I've yet to encounter a human who is always morally consistent. We all have massive inconsistences in our person.
I hate this so much. He's so hypocritical, if he's so worried about "unethical consumerism" then he should just get rid of almost everything he owns. There's NO WAY to compare child labor to child sexual abuse, and the deliberate trading and production of it. The two are not comparable, if you're talking about "consumerism". No one likes the direct comparisons, BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT RELATABLE? and also imagine hearing yourself say that you don't think someone should go to jail for having CP and NOT thinking it's creepy???
I think that all of Vaush's debates after the early years have been designed to be easy lay-ups to make himself look more effective than he actually is...and less like a creep.
And he somehow managed to fail that.
That’s exactly how he tries to set up debates he’s in, and when it doesn’t work he plays dirty. In his debate with King Critical he literally muted KC for several minutes without telling as he was arguing his side, because Vaush was completely unable to defend against his points.
KC didn’t even realize what had happened until after the fact, when he wasn’t getting any responses.
Here do you wanna know how to beat his argument maybe one percent of goods are made with child labor while 100% of CP is made with child labor. It’s very simple.
People also should point out a falacy with argument when it comes to chocolate or laptops.... people don't know exactly where everything comes from, if they did, they would make a more ethical choice. Like if you know one chocolate bar is made from child labor and another is not, you'd go with the one not made from child labor.... pedophillia is entirely unethical in its very nature, there is no ethical option.
I am not sure why I need to explain this to Vaush but although phones and cloths are created unethically, the final product is an inanimate object.
In the case of CP, the end product depicts the abuse of another human and it's existence can serve as humiliation and other physiological abuses to the victim.
who wouldve guessed the guy who defended cp multiple times actually owned cp
the horse toy in the background is funny
breadtubers like him have a million undeserved nets protecting them
i feel like at one point he's trying to say "i showed that folder on purpose to prove a point on why people bla bla bla"
Oh how i wish i could go back to 30 minutes ago when i didn't know what "the gecko stuff" meant
7:43 very fair argument.
god he'sso comfortable saying all of this
yeah the fact that he wasn’t canceled all the way through is crazy man’s really got away with this again
I like how far-right creators got banned from RUclips and Twitter during the same time period this guy was openly defending CP and admitting to jerking off to lolicon. Tells me more about the people who run these tech platforms than it does Vaush, if I'm being honest. Vaush has never hidden this type of degeneracy, he puts it on full display.

It's kinda sad that we live in a society where this is even a debate.
28:25 in France the age of consent is 15 (for two minors). If an adult has sex with a minor (less than 18) that's rape, if an adult as sex with a minor (that's 15+) that's still illegal.
Then they are strictest in Europe
