      Huge. People like Crowder will press your buttons until you get emotionally volatile, they find satisfaction in knowing they can control you in this way. Being an emotionally decently-adjusted person, you then feel bad or angry for sinking to their level and they gas-light you into thinking you're the irrational one that has mental issues and/or use it to justify their continued abuse "I wouldn't treat you this way if you were/weren't x, y, z".

    Further context: About a week earlier, a person that Crowder had previously challenged to a debate, Sam Seder, but had also been avoiding actually debating for months, surprising him on Crowder's own podcast. Crowder reacted in rather juvenile way to the surprise, literally ran from the situation, and ended the episode very soon afterward, earlier than usual. Crowder was ridiculed a lot for running away, by both the Left and especially by the Right.

    24 minutes in and this hit me. It was not until someone who had known both me and my ex for a few years asked me, "why do you let him talk to you like that?" I finally was able to step back and really think about the situation. Years later and a divorce and that ex used parental alienation to now have 2/3 of my children no longer speak with me at all. I still struggle with the feeling that whatever is wrong it was my fault, that I make stupid choices and decisions and that I am always wrong. I was in that relationship for nearly 15 years and a decade after the divorce it is still hard and I struggle.

I do think that he is abusive in this video, but I find it very hurtful that you seem to be saying that all conservative or republican people are abusive.

He was shouting and shouting and insulting her in-front of all the people and she looked down. It was on the beach in Spain, it was a Portuguese couple, I understood it to 80% as I am speaking Spanish and it’s really similar. On eastern the beach was full and people had a good time with their family and friends and they were only by themselves as a fresh parents with their baby on the beach. I wanted to say and go and help her but I was afraid after she get punished for this in their home. He didn’t touched her, it was all verbally, the aggression in his tone was like crazy I started to cry seeing her with the little baby and got abused and attacked in the public in front of hundreds of people. I was so angry because I thought she is holding their baby, she took the pregnancy 🤰 and risked her own life and transformed her body for his baby. And he treat her like just a bitch. It was really horrible.

    I can possibly provide additional context as someone that triangulates as to why some do it.

I agree its a low coping mechanism but I don’t want there to be a notion that one does it only to manipulate or gain control of the other as some therapist may say. For me I use it as a “am I going crazy?”

    The things he said were wrong. BUT!!!
    Maybe they do have 2 cars and one is in the shop. Why is everyone assuming they only own one just because only one is available on this day. Maybe she promised she would give the dogs their medicine but then decided she's not going to do anything because he didn't buy her something she wanted. Ok, so he blew smoke in her face. But how does anyone know that she doesn't also smoke. I knew a man for years before I ever found out he smoked. He was a he didn't smoke in front of anyone. Maybe she set this whole thing up just so she could catch him on video at his most pissed off moment so she could "leake" it before filing for divorce so she could get everyone to support her taking everything he has. She's already had other toxic relationships that were the "other" guys' fault. She likely knew the cameras were recording/operational. Maybe he didn't know. Maybe he would have acted differently, like her, if he also knew. Or maybe he just thought she would never set him up. Maybe judging the entirety of a relationship based on one scene is the wrong thing to do. It's like taking a test on a 10,000 page book after reading only one page. The things he said were appauling and cruel. But how bad would it have looked on him if she also on video saying equally bad things. Maye then, people would just be like, "Man, y'all need counseling." Maybe she did say a lot worse, but it was earlier and away from the cameras.
    I had a spouse that was a drug addict. The number of lies she told and acting she did around other people were completely insane. I would try for days to stay calm while she stole, pawned, lied, went off on rage fits, etc. She was constantly saying that she was going to help me with this or that but instead wasted all day every day playing games on her phone. She never cooked or cleaned and couldkt hold a job. I simply left many times while she was raging. But there were times when she backed me into a corner. Eventually, I would lose my emotions and fire back at her just so she could feel the same pain she was inflicting on me. But the moment I'm at my angriest, after she has already said the most awful things, she would call her sister crying and or being really calm telling her how I was acting as if I just started being pissed for no reason. Sometimes, when I wanted her to stop and go away, I would just start video recording her on my phone. I had 3 cars, and I wouldn't let her drive any of them. The reason is that she had a suspended license, thousands of dollars in traffic warrants, and I couldn't add her on my insurance policyher. She would take off in a rage fit driving like a maniac either hugh on meth, drunk, or both. Although I've never said I don't love her, I have said she's no wife. I've called her a POS. I have told her I hated her. I have said he didn't "deserve" anything. If anyone had only seen and heard what I said and didn't know her, they would feel sorry for her and hate me. Everyone who knew her outside of our home hated me until they got a good taste of her true colors. We have been together for 23 years, married for 18 years, but 3 years ago, she actually became my wife. All im saying is that no matter how bad a video is, don't judge. Stop making assumptions and coming to conclusions about people you don't personally have a relationship with..

    To give a little context to this argument and why he was saying "put the gloves on", is due to an argument they had earlier. The dog you see in the video recently went to the vet and was given medication that needed to be administered (I assume by mouth) and Steven wanted her to do this task. She did not want to give this medication because it is known to cause life-threatening illnesses in pregnant women. This then turns into a "show me how much you love me", and "if you love me you will put the gloves on" from Steven. It's obvious he doesn't care about her or their unborn twins considering he is smoking a cigar and blows the smoke into her face (he also shouldn't be smoking because he has a heart condition). You see her walking back and forth between the dog and the door (even getting the leash) is her thinking about appeasing him. As he watches her he gets upset because she isn't folding/submitting.
    My assumption based on this video is her trying to get away from him, not to get groceries. The fact that they only have one car is pretty telling how their relationship is and how Steven isolates her. She keeps reassuring Steven that she isn't leaving him for good but that she needs to get groceries. To me, that seems like a common argument between them, which makes it seem like Steven has jealousy issues as well as being controlling and manipulative. It also could be an indication that in previous arguments Hiliary would leave (in her car) when he would start verbally abusing her.
    To add more context, Steven was cutting her out of his income and any assets he had while speaking to a divorce attorney before this video. Steven also had an elective heart surgery (that wasn't a life or death situation, it was an elective service) scheduled the week when he knew his children would be born and as a result missed his childrens birth. People are speculating that this "aggression" might be due to drama that happened days earlier between another RUclips Channel, H3H3, where Steven was humiliated/embarrassed. I personally think this contributed to it but isn't the sole reason why. It is obvious that Steven is a bully and now others are coming forward to say that he is one, including his co-host Dan. I won't go into the more disturbing/disgusting things he has done to his old coworkers and even his own dad but he has a track record of being an abuser. What is sad about this is Hiliary's parents have come forward to say their daughter was hiding his abusive behavior from them since 2012.
    Thank you for covering this, I hope someone who might be in a situation like this will find your video and understand what they are going through isn't okay.

      Just for context. The "heart surgery" was actually a chest/ribcage surgery. He had a chest cartilage deformity called Pectus Excavatum (sunken chest) which SOMETIMES affects internal organs including heart, but seeing his chest I doubt it caused him any heart problems. The problem likely only blocked a small percentage of his lung capacity . His deformity was very average which means that hisbsurgey was probably for "cosmetic" reasons.
      So, yeah... "Heart surgery" was for clickbait.
      I had a similar deformity (Pectus Carinatum, pigeon chest) which I fixed through a brace. I understand completely how the deformity hurts your confidence and self picture, but the surgery could've waited for sure given the situation he was in.

This was done by withholding things, like the car, money, refusing to have broken things repaired, isolating me, destroying my reputation with others and insults about my body, personality, social background, family history and intellect. Then he became very ill and I had to take care of him for years and had use of the car and bank account. But he had the last laugh. He died and his very wealthy family left me penniless. Life became very hard and basic necessities were often lacking but at least I could make decisions for myself. 13 years later people are still snubbing me or being rude because of lies my husband told them.

    Some context to help understand: Crowder is an evangelical Christian and his wife was raised in an evangelical family as well. Much of the recent events are traced a couple months back, when he was offered a four year contract by Ben Shapiro's DailyWire, and turned it down. He publicly shamed the company, and accused them of offering a "slave contract". Daily Wire released the contract and there was backlash against Crowder when it was revealed it was a preliminary terms sheet and he was offered $50 million dollars.
    The most aggressive personality at DailyWire in attacking Crowder was Candace Owens, who intimated that he was keeping something secret, and asked people to pray for him. Cut to two weeks ago, Steven claims that Candace Owens had blackmailed him. He revealed that he got a divorce in 2021 and had been keeping it secret. In his statement he stated that he did not want to get divorced, and that he was only unable to avoid it because Texas is a no fault divorce state. He stated that he "picked wrong" when it came to choosing a wife.
    His wife took offense to his portrayal of events and released the video and some documents to Yashar Ali. She made it clear that it was Steven who retained a divorce attorney and bought a second home before any separation. She also showed some correspondence proving that he had made physical threats in the past.

And no, this is not been my choice. My then wife decided she didn't want to be married anymore. And in the State of Texas, that is completely permitted.

    ‘Love your wife as Christ loved the Church and gave himself up for her.’ ‘Love is patient, love is kind, does not boast, is not arrogant or rude, does not insist on its own way…’
    Both passages from the New Testament in the Bible that form a lot of teaching about marriage. I could go on.

    It's a minor thing, but I didn't even notice the dog's body language. You're right, the dog definitely senses the tension.
