And to think that Shane had the nerve to produce a multiple part series about Jake Paul being a sociopath...
NO FR
@@Ade-ing yeah i would trust Jake with my children more than Shane for sure. He may not be a good role model but I know he won't bring a alleged p*do around my kids lol
Jake Paul is a moron but compared to Shane Dawson. He’s a saint. Being an idiot, and a scammer is Jake’s crime. Shane Dawson is a literal sociopath and possible PDF.
@@elipeeli are you sure about that tho 👀
Takes one to know one
It says a lot that as horrifying as the Blank Space parody was, I had never heard of it and he got cancelled for something else. Multiple something elses. Holy Christ that was insane. If I was Taylor, I’d also have threatened legal so fast. Wow.
Seriously such a good point!! I remember watching him for a while when I was like 12 and 13 and I never saw even close to half of this shit. It’s crazy how prolific he was and how it was all just SO offensive and disturbing
She did actually, his video got taken down and then he tried to send his fans on her but clearly he didn’t understand his reach 😂
@@LeakyOctopus I remember hearing about this when I was a fan and I was pissed at her 😂🙄🙄🙄 large fan bases like that are kinda like cults
He made a campaign against Taylor and her record label bc the video was removed by her team, I remember that clearly bc he made it seem like an unfair thing, I wonder why would she want such a love letter removed?
ooh i know this! what basically happened is that taylor swift (or her legal team, y'know) sued shane dawson on the grounds that the video was harassment/defamation. shane argued that the video was a parody and thus fair use. taylor's legal team fought that saying that "it needs to be funny for it to be a parody. it's not funny." AND WON. big win for ts and her legal if you ask me
I literally watched a documentary yesterday about a man who was obsessed with Taylor, and had paranoid delusions that she was stalking him etc. and ended up mass m*rdering people at a Waffle House. I can't imagine how she felt about having her name associated with that, and also people like Shane creating things like this. Such poor taste. Incredibly poor taste.
Jesus, can I get the name of that doc??
@@aliceviens7 this happened years ago. 2018 I believe. I didn’t hear of something that happened last month. And not even saying he had to know, but it’s just the fact that her name is constantly being brought up by people who are mentally unwell, she has had many stalkers, and a video of Shane killing her, along with the Kanye video of her naked, etc. like give her a break.
@@elyserice6581 ruclips.net/video/hMRhgmm8f18/видео.html
I will warn you, it’s extremely graphic and shows some of the murders.
@@aliceviens7 they weren’t saying anything was shane’s fault or related to them at all. they were just listing things taylor has been connected to
Was it the Dave's Lemonade one? because it literally made me bawl it was so sad. this is truly disgusting of shane.
Cannot describe how uncomfortable the parody made me. The murders were so graphic and the entire concept is disgusting. The fact that he thought of it, wrote it, got his girlfriend to agree, countless production and management didn’t question it, AND his young fans at the time received it well (???) Blows my mind.
I thought he was gay,or was this pre-gay?
Ong the amount of times i winced while i watched this was agonizing
I watched this when I was so young- it’s so weird, that I WATCHED this at like 12/13 and enjoyed it, because it was Shane!
I was a big Shane Dawson fan when I was a kid but the blank space parody absolutely terrified me, I had nightmares for weeks
i usually love gore, but this shit was fucking gross as hell i hate this. i wanted to cry the whole time
The fact that violence against women has ever been the punchline to a joke is disgusting and horrifying. God it went on for so long
most terrifying part is that these kinds of jokes are becoming more and more common again. makes me feel so so so sick and unsafe as an SA victim that’s also afab.
@@limelacroixcan Especially with the stupid alpha male shit. It seems we're devolving as society AGAIN.
jfc as a woman who's survived domestic violence/stalking/SA the blank space parody is absolutely terrifying. I cant believe that's supposed to be funny in the first place. I cannot believe this guy is having a child wtf
I’m so incredibly sorry you went through that. I can’t believe people actually make “jokes” out of it.
I watched this when I was young, 12/13? I’m terrible at times/math, but I didn’t know any better- so of course I found it funny,
@@Clownbunnycosplay nobody asked
I cannot believe that Taylor Swift parody went through as many people as it did and every single one of them was like “we have to publicly release this and be affiliated with it”
god I feel sick to the stomach watching this
It is absolutely insane. Justice must he served to everybody who had a hand in this god
Parody lawsuits are usually pretty tough to win as by nature parodies are when someone is making fun of something else and humor is subjective. However, Taylor Swift won her lawsuit against Shane because she could definitively prove that this parody wasn’t funny.
Was there ever actually a lawsuit? I can’t find any trace of it. Actually most of the articles I’ve seen about this are, shockingly, written in Shane’s favor, saying Taylor’s team was abusing copyright law or wanting it taken down because of copyright. Did he voluntarily take it down after that? Did they force him to with a lawsuit threat? All I know is he made a follow up video calling out Taylor, and his fans spammed her Twitter and the comments of the real Blank Space video with hate. Real “empath” behavior 🙄
@@247webgirl it might’ve been sealed by the court if she asked it to be.
He was trying to do shock humor but left out the humor
I’ve been a big Taylor fan since like 2008 and stalking and SA issues is something she’s really passionate about based on personal experiences. Like as recently as January a guy crashed his car into her building and ripped off the intercom trying to find her.
I was around 16-17 when that video came out and at the time I had an older ex boyfriend who stalked me for a couple of months, in person and online, and it’s extremely terrifying and traumatizing. So it was so sad and frustrating watching his fans go after her for wanting that video taken down and feeling threatened. And then he’d do interviews talking sh!t about her for doing it which just made it worse.
Same, I had been a fan of hers since I was nine and following her career you know how much vocal she bacame about stalking and SA (especially watching the Miss Americana) it''s disgusting to see people monetize off serious issues while laughing at the victim
i hope you are doing okay
I don’t like Shane Dawson but stop feeling bad for rich people they don’t feel bad for you or they wouldn’t be hoarding their wealth
@@Max-dg5gj None of this is about wealth. I've written a literal dissertation about parasocial relationships, I know the positive and negative consequences of it, but that's not what this is about. Treating celebrities as if their traumatizing experiences don't matter and aren't worthy of empathy/sympathy is also dangerous, especially since it often affects public perception of those issues. I relate to and feel bad for her because we've both experienced stalking which is an absolute nightmare. And watching people treat her traumatizing experiences like that online also affected how I viewed what happened to me. None of that has to do with money.
@@EULFORS She is a person but she is also a wealthy and exploitative person and I think your concern could be better used on someone who has no access to resources rather than someone will millions of dollars. Wealthy people do deserve less sympathy and more scorn, being wealthy is a choice and it is a choice that is actively oppressive to other people.
I remember both of these being uploaded when I was really young, and I remember people mass tweeting Taylor Swift attacking her for suing Shane Dawson. Just the most vile language you can imagine, and everyone participating was between the ages of like 10-15
Yes ! I remember and I wasn't even really into what was going on in the english youtube, but people were attacking Taylor for not understanding free speach and parody. What was wrong with people at that time ??
Jesus fucking Christ
As if it wasn't within her fucking right to sue him
Cid Dwyer has a great vid about that specifically
Everytime I think I’m rid of Shane Dawson he comes back to haunt me
Like a bad penny
I can't believe anyone thinks it's funny to threaten any woman with stalking. Even if it's a 'joke'. Stalking and crazy men like this is something all women fear, Shane is so disgusting
I believe Taylor tried to get the video taken down (bc she has trauma involving very similar scenarios) but he reuploaded it multiple times. plus if you looked at the comments his audience was mocking her for being upset in the first place
wtf, I hate this dude so much
It’s so gross because Taylor has been stalked and SAed. It’s well documented and he exploited it
The fact that Shane still has fans is so terrifying and disheartening to me.
all his fans are children
people love that mf too… like come on there’s so much better content out there
And how is Shane Dawson not in jail he should be in jail forever and why did he get away with this whyyyy
the fact that he was accepted by a surrogate makes me scared for his future child
As someone who loved Taylor back then and loves Taylor now, Taylor was made out to be the villain by Shane and fans for YEARS because she threatened legal action. He harassed/made creepy inappropriate jokes about her for years after all this happened too like he didn't leave her alone. Last tour I went to there were snippers there because of how bad/serious some of her stalker situations are. It wasn't funny then and isn't funny now but at very least now people are calling this shit out.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️❤️
SNIPERS?? AT CONCERTS??? JFCCC
@@MartianCandieswe gave them friendship bracelets during the most recent tour 😭
@@griffy89 😭😭😭 bless y'all's hearts
fun fact: i was really into parody youtubers (bart baker and the key of awesome) when i was 9/10 and i especially loved taylor swift parodies and i stumbled across shane's blank space parody and it scarred me for life and it took me so long to figure out when i was 14 and watched shane religiously that he was the guy that traumatized me
same here
people can say whatever they want about bart's parodies,,looking back they're kinda weird, but at least he didn't do whatever the hell shane is doing
when i first started watching youtube YEARS AGO i would watch fred videos and fred videos only, so of course i searched on the search bar 'fred' and a video by shane appeared called 'FRED IS DEAD' and i obvs watched it bc i was curious and i just remember being so scared. and what's crazy is i obvs then started watching shane religiously when i was like 14 and it took me a minute to realise it was him who scared me when i was a kid trying to just watch fred videos 😭
I used to be a big shane dawson fan when I was a pre teen and when he was mostly doing conspiracy videos. It's actually so gross that I used to watch him especially seeing these videos that I didn't even know about. They're actually so much worse than I could have imagined
literally. i had no idea about ANYTHING in his past when i watched the documentaries and conspiracy theories and like ghost hunting shit. i thought before he was doing that he was just doing the toy stuff and eating mashups or whatever it was..not this. it truly makes me nauseous
Same here. There was so much shit I didn't know about and it makes me want to throw up knowing I ever supported him.
Same thing for me, but with Onision. I cringe just thinking back to those days now
I’m the same exact way. I used to love his videos and then I found out about some of the bad stuff he did, and now seeing this is absolutely horrifying
I think that people need to remember that just like people think it's gross that we used to watch him, we need to remember that he also feels gross about what he was putting out there. Keep in mind that as he continued to put out offensive content, the only reason why he continued was because he had viewers who also thought it was funny. We've all grown as people and I think it's ridiculous that Shane continues to get all of the blame for this content when WE were the ones who gave him a platform. I think Shane has grown as I have grown. I feel guilty for thinking that content was funny as he feels guilty for producing that content. Remember that he gained many, many subscribers during the time that he was posting the offensive content. I just think we as the viewers need to also take some responsibility to who we give a platform and understand that people change as we grow a better understanding of the world.
Didnt Shane have a child audience? Wtf was this Im sorry for anyone who saw this as a kid
Right? My thoughts immediately jump to.. how did those kids feel when they saw this, I assume entirely not expecting it
Yes I was one of them. I think I was watching him when I was around 10-12 years old and most of my friends watched and liked him too.
i remember this and thinking it was funny and nothing else. because of his content i was already so desensitized
i was like 9 when he was in his prime (2012) I was obsessed with this guy and so was everyone else in my year group
i saw his parody songs when i was younger,,i can't believe i ever thought the things he said were normal
i hate how now he says "my fans all thought it was funny!!" dude your fans were 12 year old girls, we didn't know better
Holy shit. Didn't think the Taylor Swift song could get much worse after he bashed his GF's face in for a minute straight. I was wrong.
“Fun” Fact: the reason the practical FX & production look so much better in the awful Blank Space parody, and why it “was like a horror movie” as HTHAZE put it, is because it was directed by Micheal Gallagher. Gallagher also directed “Smiley”, a horror movie he dropped in 2012 in which Shane was casted in.
dude I've been looking for this comment! when i saw in the opening credits that michael gallagher did it i knew to expect horrifying garbage because ik he did smiley and that other short horror film like...the lady in the hospital? the smiling woman? i cant remember but it was scary af to me when i was a 9 year old shane fan
it was the expressionless and im so sure he did it but i could be wrong
Does anyone remember the response Shane made to her team getting the video taken down? I think it was just him yelling at the camera, insulting her because he just ~couldn’t~ believe how she could take it down considering it was a “””parody”””. But he was so angry about it that I honestly do believe that he considers this sort of a magnum opus. It’s so terrifying not only that he made that but that he also couldn’t understand how horrifying and scary it must have been for her (and her fans) to see this. It’s just disgusting beyond words
god this makes me sick. How are you human and think if you just slap the word "parody" on it, it makes it okay? God I hate this
and then he claims he's an "empath"
@@moatrboat most sociopaths like to say they are really good people. i wouldn’t diagnose him bc im not a professional but he definitely gives off energy that he would pretend & trick some people, esp younger viewers, into thinking he’s a genuine & good person & that it’s okay to think like he does. fucking terrifying. i just saw someone say that they would be actually upset with the ‘parody’ if he killed a dog. people are insane. this is the culture that’s been bred by people like shane.
@@stinker9119 yes he definitely seems very manipulative and disingenuous, frightening.
Well, that makes him calling Tati "manipulative" for talking about being an SA survivor.
I know we have to believe victims but it's hard for me to believe Shane has gone through anything at all considering his treatment of SA victims (specially women) and r*pe jokes.
I was living in bliss forgetting about these music videos. Thanks Jake..
jake saying “he thought this was his magna carta” and he probably meant to say “magnum opus” SENT ME
SAME
I was so freaked out when the Blank Space video came out, both as a teen TS fan and someone who already got caught up in some awful relationships, and it made me physically ill. I remember thinking that I must’ve been taking it too seriously because people in the comments were convinced it was comedy gold, but actually I was right this shit is horrifying.
i was a fan of his in 4th grade, and when i found a repost of that song, despite my lack of morals and preteen desire to be edgy, i almost threw up. I've never watched shane since, and i don't know how people knew he posted that and continued to be a fan of him.
Remember a parody song I heard that was a trouble parody calling Taylor a pycho,so fed up looking back on it.
Are you referring to Bart Baker??
The fact that bo burnham did both of these exact concepts and they are incredible songs just proves how unbelievably bad Shane us at everything he does
Which songs?
@@Sarah-dr6hm "nerds" for the first song and "repeat stuff" for the second
I looked up nerds bc I've never heard it before and it's so much better than shane's. bo has a way of using offensive humor in a way where the joke isn't about the fact that it is offensive, it's making fun of the way other people use offensive humor.
bo also realizes when he makes mistakes, gives genuine apologies, and changes for the better.
@@doityourselfbombs for real! he's usually satirizing offensive humour or shitty people, whereas Shane just embodies offensive 'humour'
The fact that both Shane and Trisha are having kids and people are happy for them is insane to me. Having a baby does not make you a good person. In fact, the stress tends to bring out the worst in people who are already awful. As someone who grew up in an abusive home with a mother who had no business having kids in the first place, my heart breaks for these kids who don't even exist yet. Not to mention that the world is going to complete shit, and the cognitive dissonance involved in having a child in this day and age and thinking they will have a decent future is astounding. Hence why the hubs and I are child free. I absolutely love kids but I cannot in good conscience create a new life with the world and our planet crashing and burning.
That last sentence 👏🏼 my husband and I are child free by choice mostly for that reason
I 100% agree. There's so much societal pressure to have children, and I don't get it. My mother keeps pressuring me to ' meet someone cute' so she can have grandkids, but I don't like the idea of raising my child in today's environment.
@@uncannedspaghetti same here. I got sterilized two months ago and I felt this big relief of stress because I felt like I did a good thing for myself. I'm low income and can barely care for myself at times. I can't fathom telling my kids we don't have enough money for food this week. It would hurt me seeing them suffer because of me
@@fighttheevilrobots3417 I am, in fact, judging you. Stare harder at your kid lmao
@@nonprofitgirl I have a niece, two nephews from my sister and another nephew coming from my brother LMAO. My bf has a nephew from his sister. I'm sure there's more but I don't remember. I'm currently trying to get my mental health back on track and every time I have a panic attack, I just worry "what if" my "kids" saw that. I had to see that from my mom growing up and sometimes it just scarred me going to school the next morning. It affected my school because all I did was worry about my mom and didn't care about school. So needless to say, it was hell. I'm lucky I even graduated highschool but it's like... Why would I be selfish enough to force my kids to see that knowing I was never fully well off from the beginning?
I remember watching the Blank Space parody when I was younger and thinking it was all fine and good and funny and jolly, and also thinking Taylor was being unreasonable for filing a lawsuit. What the F*CK why did I think that. This is disgusting.
And like. I was a Taylor Swift fan back then (and still am) I don't know how I wasn't horrified by this when it came out. What the heck????
Probably because you were a kid. Kids don't have critical thinking skills!
agreed with @@Chlo255. op you shouldn't blame yourself. shane on the other hand...
Whatever your opinion was back then, you've grown up now. At least you realize that it was wrong to think that way and even admit to your mistakes. That's what matters the most! We do stupid things when we're young, the thing that matters is if we've understood what we did wrong and learned from our mistakes! So don't beat yourself up too much
I was like 9 when I watched Shane and I was the same we were children most of his fans were young girls it’s not our fault ://
edgy middle school me going through my "it's funny to make Nazi jokes" phase loved this shit and I still hate myself for it
the important thing is that you changed for the better 🙂
I was the same, and I'm incredibly ashamed of it. I IDOLISED Shane and everything he did. I was so young and I'm upset that I thought it was okay. But I've changed, and I'm proud of the fact that I can look back on it and know that it was incredibly wrong rather than living on thinking it was acceptable.
I'm glad I wasn't the only one who went through a stage like that and that I changed for the better so smoothly.
The thing is you were a child and consuming fucked up content. He was making it. It's good that you have gotten better!
at least you've matured and realized your mistakes and regret it, it's nice to see people recognize that this shit isn't funny
I think it’s important to remember that a huge chunk of his fans were minors. I was 11/12 when I saw the Swift video for the first time and it (as well as Shane as a whole) helped desensitize me to violence/gore especially involving women. He rationalized and “quirk-ified” racism/CSA/SA/violence/S word and a lot more to children. He was a part of a group of RUclipsrs who trained millions of minors to be okay with s*xual advances from older people. Personally, I was approached by a lot of older men online and thought their behavior was normal/funny partly due to Shane’s content. Looking back at 19, I’m horrified. Thank you two both for bringing this often overlooked part of Shane’s career to light. I fear for that kid.
I was 9-11 when I was a Shane fan like I was a literal child and it really set me up for a lot of traumatic things that happened to me :((
I've seen many of Shane's distasteful creations in the last years, but this has to be THE most disturbing one so far. And it was all censored, thankfully. I can't imagine stomaching all of this without the blur. Like, what the actual heck. Ofc Taylor Swift is a celebrity but she's a person above all and that's such a sick video to make
and then turning around and saying she was the unreasonable one? Like I thought the dude was an "empath" but he is sick enough to actually try to control HER reaction to this disturbing video about her
I actually started crying out of anger - and that was he killed the first person. It doesn’t matter how you feel about Taylor Swift, this is horrific and I completely understand why she took legal action. How much more horrible shit is gonna keep resurfacing???
he had a HUGE team helping with the blank space video????? w h y??? why did those people say yes to the job wth
no one says no to him, that's why. they're either scared or just want his money
Back then, I could *kind of* understand. He was one of the biggest names on RUclips. If someone was looking for a job and landed one with his then-reputation, it could really look good for you. A career boost, if you will. Obviously, that mentality hasn't aged well with him.
When the Blank Space parody was taken down, Shane The Empath got really annoyed/mad and kept stating "It wasn't even that bad!" regarding the violent visuals
The fact that you blurred out the graphic portions and I still feel deeply disturbed after that video is insane. Can we please permently deplatform Shane.
This is small and might come across as nitpicking, but I don't care. I'm a member of a system, and I HATE the "Oh My God, I hear voices in my head! I'm so insane!! 🤪". Bullshit stereotype. It makes us sound crazy when we talk about our experiences. This is also damaging to those with schizophrenia and experience psychosis/hallucinations. It creates a stereotype that those who "hear voices" are dangerous and will hurt the people around them. It's so disheartening to see that stuff like this is incredibly normalized. Suicide Squad Harley Quinn also comes to mind, not only did the movie suck, but she talks to the "voices" in her head and is the "I'm so quirky and insane 🤪" stereotype. I feel like these things should be talked about more
i’m so glad you mentioned this because that really bothered me too. it’s such a shitty and ridiculously prevalent stereotype and i’m so sorry you have to deal with seeing that everywhere. 😕
felt this! i've had experiences with psychosis and am currently getting evaluated for a potential dissociative disorder and that "punchline" has always made me feel sick
my brother has bipolar disorder and experiences auditory and visual hallucinations when he’s manic. it is so incredibly frustrating when people joke about bipolar/say they have it. it’s so much more than a punch line and has seriously effected my brothers safety as well as our family’s. he isn’t a punch line to someone’s shitty joke. it makes me want to scream
thank you for talking about this!!! that trope makes me so sick. what is so funny about these disorders? 🤨 that they're highly stigmatized and often incredibly hard to deal with when it's so hard to access resources for them?? jfc
I completely agree with you. I experience auditory hallucinations sometimes, I typically don't ever share that with people because of the stereotype surrounding it. It's hurtful and damaging.
the people in the “fuck up” circle makes me so sad bc it’s like people with actual mental health issues and like it sucks that he’s making them the butt of his joke instead of like lifting up people like that that might have actually been considered “fuck ups” in their lives :/
Maybe as someone who was stalked, this made my blood run cold with the blank space parody. So I may be being oversensitive. But what the fuck dude. How did Shane think that was okay?
that's not being oversensitive. it's incredibly inappropriate.
Nah ur not being over sensitive at all this shit made me wanna throw up
Nah never had any experience with any of the topics involved in the “””””parody””””” and i got angry
nah, it's not just you. i haven't been stalked (fingers crossed) and i'm absolutely fucking horrified. i have no idea how a human being thought this was okay.
I like horror concepts, but it’s not enjoyable when the person has had real experiences like this.
it's especially not enjoyable when you bring a real person in it
yeah i would say having a baby is the #1 last thing shane dawson should do? my parents (who did make a few mistakes) always say "you need a license to drive a car but literally anyone can have a kid"
Yeah, while I think that people with mental illnesses can often be great parents, Shane Dawson literally often talked/talks about not showering for days, just eating crap and lying around doing nothing. Some people say that having a child really put things into perspective for them and got them out of that kind of mental state, and while that's great for them, having a child isn't supposed to be an alternative to getting a hobby or therapy. You should try to make sure you're well adjusted, not only financially and physically, but also mentally. Shane is definitely not that.
That's not even touching on all the gross opinions he has and things he says, that he thinks is hilarious and quirky. No child should have to grow up hearing their parent say children are s*xy or pretending to have a w4nk over Willow Smith
It's honestly WILD that Shane managed to be the internet's little darling boy with THIS in his past
The fact that people were originally saying that Shane was hot in the Taylor Swift parody because of his stalker ish behavior is deeply concerning
WHAT 😀
@@tirsamisu795yess. In his comments a few years ago, his fans were saying that he was hot because of his attitude. Weird ASF I know
@@gregory7567 that is absolutely insane
@@tirsamisu795 very insane and the scary part is that the comments were from teenage girls. The majority of his fan base
I’m so glad someone is finally talking about this specific video. It terrified me watching it when it came out.
10 yr old me was traumatized
almost want to say i’d like to know how shane would feel if someone made a parody of his blank space parody about him that was just as graphic but nobody deserves to have to make or view something like that
i remember watching it then and having it be so hard to watch even then. it was disgusting and i don’t think i ended up finishing it😭
OMG NOO!!! I remember watching the Taylor video when I was like 12 and it scarred me for years. I also remember Shane being absolutely unapologetic and really defending the video because it was just “his type of humour” and when it got taken down he made himself seem like the victim.
If I was Taylor, I'd be horrified
My flex is that I hated Shane from day one. I tried to watch a video of his in middle school and couldn't even finish it bc he was so obnoxiously unfunny.
same honestly, I heard a lot about Ryland and Shane from Joey Graceffa's video but I could never stomach that dude.
When were you in middle school?
i remember being genuinely freaked out at his blank space parody when i was a kid
I remember I was a fan of Shane's when I was younger. When that Taylor Swift video came out was the day I stopped being a fan of his. It was so traumatizing, especially since I was a young kid getting abused. I had nightmares
It also made me take a step back and think out of all the things in the world, you want to create that? This is what you create? Like you have so much money, so many resources and a huge audience that you can send any message to and this is what you decide to put out into the world.
I was the same. It really made me dislike him and I’d been a fan since 2008/9. I briefly came back as a fan when he started doing the documentaries because I really thought he’d changed and I regret it so much :/ He’s a genuine scumbag who can never take responsibility
the taylor song parody should have lead him to a jail cell
To anyone who wants to go see the head smashing scene: don't. It's not worth it. Their reaction is appropriate.
Rachel Bloom did versions of both of those concepts and they are not only great songs but handled with a lot more nuance than shane is capable of, but oh my GOD that blank space one is bad, no wonder he was sued over it
omg I love Rachel bloom too!
dave days also did the whole pretending to be obsessed with a celebrity with miley cyrus but it was sooo much better executed
This title and description didn’t prepare me for the content. I’m super glad it was blurred, and this was so wild to learn about, but since I was watching it before bed, evening without a personal history I honestly am having a hard time not being freaked out. Maybe a trigger warning somewhere could help.
It's so weird seeing this new generation of youtubers who grew up with the same era of youtube that I did. Also youtube was so fucking wild
god this is taking me back to a very awkward time,,, rlly thought fuckup was an absolute banger in middle school im ashamed
Our little minds were so warped by his content, im in the same boat
the fact that i bought it on itunes too so it’s still there on my account as one of the few songs i ever bought 😭
I liked superlove so much I played it in my free time 😨
and this is why children should not be on the internet. I too watched fd up shit and got traumatized
@@mannequinbrains oh honey no... 😭
I remember seeing this in real time and I unsubscribed from Shane immediately. Everyone around me seemed to think he was so quirky and funny but I was offended on another level and never looked back. I also unsubbed from Lisa Swartz as well because she was complicit in this and no one ever seems to have anything bad to say about her. She went on to have different channels and promos etc
I'm a swifty and I watch your videos a lot and I've been avoiding this video till tonight where I thought "it might not be THAT bad. I regret this oml this was horrific
the fact that i was eating up his conspiracy videos and other series while THIS was also on the internet?? i stopped watching shane years ago, and it seems that there’s always more to learn. i don’t think i’ll ever feel more betrayed by a celebrity
The fact that he actually showed a murder scene that graphic in a paramour music video shows you how truly disturbed he is. Yet he made a whole “documentary” about Jake Paul being a sociopath and how scary that is. Shane is really a messed up person on so many ways.
dud chill is like cheap acting
during the 1989 era a stalker actually sneaked into taylor swifts house and was in her bed. which is why she never gives out her location and goes between 8 locations with security always at all 8
that video was so messed up and as a swiftie since 2008, if i would have seen this then i would have sent so much hate to shane dawson
Did he get caught?
When I was way way younger I was a fan of Shane and when I watched the Taylor swift blank space parody not only was I terrified, but it drove me away from watching him for years. I became a fan of him again way later because of the conspiracy theories and thankfully realized how truly he awful he is and stopped being his fan looooong ago. This unlocked a horrifying memory for me omg
If u wanna see Shane ACTUALLY being a director in his joker era, watch the documentary the chair
I’ve always struggled with bipolar and get hallucinations, when he did the voices after he “killed” those people in his video, it made me furious bc of the inaccurate representation of hallucinations and demand hallucinations. :( there’s already such a bad mentality for people who struggle with mental illness and struggle with hallucinations and it was just creating more bad representation.
okay but the scene of shane slowly clapping along with everyone else actually made me SCREAM i cringed so hard im not joking 😭
half-predicting the colleen apology @4:09 lol
not them predicting the RUclipsr song apologies
That parody was disgusting and I would be terrified if I were Taylor. She had the full right to take action. Also the fact he referenced the actions of a serial killer (Ed Gein) like it’s a joke. This was sickening thank you for showing me
I hadn't realized how violent the second video was and even though it was blurred, it actually made me fully nauseous??? forever shocked that this existed and was allowed to stay up. icky icky. i had no idea how much i needed to hear people negate it until y'all did
everything I hear about him... it just gets worse and worse. remember when he and his gf put up vlogs where they mimed sex in front of his tweenage cousin to "teach" her about sex? and asked her to twerk for the camera?? that alone makes me incredibly worried for his future child... and that's only one thing on a long, long list of disturbing actions :')
THIS IS THE COLLAB I NEVER EXPECTED BUT DEFINITELY NEEDED WTF
If someone is still rich after it becomes public knowledge that they’re a horrible person, then they haven’t been cancelled. He’s still rich. No accountability, little consequences
the taylor swift video actually makes me sick to my stomach and excuse me what are you guys saying about him becoming a FATHER???
Sawyer Hartman just existed in other peoples videos back in the day, I hope he's doing okay lol
LOL
The major issue with the Blank Space parody was that she has multiple seriously scary stalkers. Like someone broke into her house and slept in her bed. She has a state of the art face scanning technology for people entering her concerts to catch her stalkers. She carries military grade wound dressing because, as she puts it, “You get enough stalkers trying to break into your house and you kind of start prepping for bad things”. I’d want something like that video down immediately too.
If it’s possible at this point, you may want to add content warnings for this, specifically for SA, su*cide, and violence. Not at all prepared to see any of that and had no idea it was coming
I had never seen that Taylor swift parody before. Holy shit. That is actually horrific. I swear every time I hear about him he gets so much worse.
I’m a Taylor Stan. I remember when Shane put this out. I was either 19 or 20. And at the time I didn’t have much of an opinion if him, other than it really rubbing me the wrong way that my much younger cousin loved him for his Sha Nay Nay videos. But when this came out, one of my “friends” showed it to me, who liked Shane and dint like Taylor, and I just remember how fucking deeply unsettled and distressed I felt. I’ve been a fan of Taylor’s since 2008, and I’ve NEVER experienced behavior quite like this towards any other artists that I listen to. It’s disgusting. (I know Brittney went through fucking he’ll and back, I just wasn’t actively a fan of hers when all of that happened because I was a kid)
“Did anyone do their research” referring to if they looked him up - I wonder if he puts legal name “Shane Yaw” on things and if it makes it harder for things to be found about him - but also I feel like Shane Yaw would bring things up too
That's actually a really good point
i discovered Taylor when i was 6 years old, im the oldest of 5 kids and having Taylor and her music in her life has been like having the big sister I always wanted but never had. i’m so glad i hadn’t heard of this video until now, because if i had actually watched it when i was younger (i was 12 when 1989 came out, so probably around a similar age for this) it would have genuinely terrified me. how on earth this got past ANYONE on shane’s team and was considered okay is insane for so many reasons.
9:28 he should've said "I'm like a deaf guy walking through a music shop" that would've maked way more sense
“RUclips was so much better 5 years ago”
RUclips 5 years ago:
How does Shane still have a fan base after everything he has done? How can people simply ignore his disgusting behaviour throughout the years? Honestly wild.
I was shaking just watching the censored version of this. I can't imagine coming across the full thing .
he probably was this gratuitous with the violence because he's said he's always wanted to make horror movies (theres another argument to be made about how horror violence can have an effect on actual violence, not just in a "horror movie bad" way, but that's for another day) and i guess used this as his avenue? like he knew he got popular for this kind of content and would likely lose views if he took a sudden genre shift, so he worked it into the content he was already making. but even with that, what could he possibly be thinking? that it would be good for his audience, that was primarily made up of young people and ESPECIALLY young girls, to witness severe violence, mainly towards women? i get that some people watch this kind of horror from a young age, but actively seeking out horror is SO much different than going to your favorite youtuber for another of his funny videos and getting...this.
This music video is back onto his channel now. He premotted it on his instagram story today. That just tells me that he did not learn ANYTHING.
OH MY GOD HE DID???
WTF
The comment about RUclipsrs making a song to say sorry I’m a screw up is insanely relevant to the Colleen ballinger situation happening right now someone else please tell me you’re here with me 😭
came to comment that too LOLL
Yes here now too!!
It’s wild! He predicted it so well
As a swiftie is of 7 years, what the fuck.
it’s weird how warm and nostalgic some of these songs were for me and i’m very ashamed of it
HOW DID THAT BLANK SPACE MUSIC VIDEO NOT RING ANY BELLS TO ME I HAD THAT FUCKIN SONG ON MY IPOD
i was a shane stan back in the day (during the shisa era which was around this time). i think it should also be said that i was 11-13 years old.
I’m obviously out of that phase now but it’s just so weird going back and seeing that shit as an adult ya know? some of his stuff was REALLY graphic and gross and it never clicked with me that that was wrong because he had millions of other fans encouraging it.
the lesbian character is rlly .. something 😀
the flannel and pixie cut 😭😭😭 and the walk toooo. the stereotypes
Seriously how are they letting him have a child?? Like I can't think of many people who'd probably be worse parents.
i am so sad that i know most of the lyrics to fuck up still, why the fuk did my brain retain any of this
same
dont feel bad the lyrics were so simple i memorised it after listening to it once
at 4:03 when they're talking about making a song as an apology and being like "sorry i'm just a fuckup" is like foreshadowing colleen and "i'm not a groomer, i'm just a loser 😢"
that video is horrific and idk, putting that out to his millions of followers feels like it would tell some people that "lol, stalking is funny" and that just feels dangerous and gross.
I genuinely thought that it was about him being a Taylor Swift fan until the part where he killed his gf
I was a Shane fan from about the ages of 11-15 😭 At 23, watching commentary channels roast him feels like therapy 😅 Crazy the stuff I was exposed to when I was so young it’s a wonder I turned out alright (I think)!
I can't believe I actually used to watch and appreciated Shane Dawson when I was like 13-15 years old. I watched his old skit videos when I was young and a few things made me uncomfortable but I forgot about them over time and then he started making his conspiracy theory shows and the vids where he used to makes big milkshakes or something. There was a video of him donating to charity and I thought that he was a good guy until I found out he got 'cancelled' and I watched videos explaining why and I am honestly disgusted at myself for watching this and liking it. I know I was young and impressionable but there were things in his vids that made me uncomfortable and yet I ignored them and continued watching, its horrible and I honestly wish he was in jail for all the stuff he has done.
swifties rise up, we have a target
as a non swiftie, all i have to say is “get his ass”
the scenes of shane killing people made me actually physically sick and i couldnt even see them
I can't remember if it was the original version of this song or another one of his parody videos (I remember the Taylor actress being the same) but there was definitely a worse version of this that existed. The song paused because he chloroformed her and she woke up chained up in a basement and was pretty much tortured. I was like nine or ten when this came out so I only remember bits and pieces but that imagery has stuck with me too long for it not to exist.
yes it was a parody of We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together and it horrifying honestly
Do you remember his old parodies? Like Lady Gaga’s “Telephone”, or those weird videos that were parodies of degrassi and Harry Potter? Because I feel like I’m going crazy since nobody’s mentioning it😭 he made a character pull burgers out of his ass and made Harry Potter have a shlong
HIS STORY OF MY LIFE PARODY WAS MY FAVORITE WHEN I WAS YOUNGER LOL
I vividly remember watching the blank space parody when it came out and his reaction to Taylor's lawsuit. I wasn't into her then but seeing this uncensored back then made me question why it existed and why he was so upset about her reaction to this. With or without her history of stalkers and harassment, this is just horrifying. Given everything he's done since, this man should not be let even 20 feet near a child, let alone have his own cause he's just gotten worse with time an even more enabling fan base.
