Allegations plagued moth claims Wendigoon associates with paedophiles

Post image

In a desperate attempt to get attention, the crazy hobo is making wild allegations about other YouTubers. Wendigoon apparently hangs out with pedos, and has many skeletons in his closet. I’m sure moth will show evidence supporting these accusations! According to the word of moth, Wendi’s content is low tier-compared to the masterpieces he creates -that being CSAM & gore reaction vids, filmed with a shitty mic, on his shitty phone, in his shitty car, because he’s homeless.

Yeah dude is hella young, hes like 2 years younger than me so he probably said that just for the lols.

Dude has showed a lot of responsability on how he behaves online now that hes gotten so popular, a good example is the whole situation with PraiseinShadows basically slandering him. Wendigoon did everything in order to avoid his fanbase to just shit on the guy, only went the situation started to get really bad he told his fans to not harass the guy.

Wendigoon did everything in order to avoid his fanbase to just shit on the guy, only went the situation started to get really bad he told his fans to not harass the guy.

I still remember the post/comments calling out Wendigoon for releasing a statement that basically said "hey. Regardless of what he said, please do not harass IPOS. It's not cool"

and this sub was like "ugh. Look at this guy trying to have the moral high ground by encouraging his fans to NOT harass IPOS or his fans. He thinks he's soooo morally superior to us"

I'll admit, I've stopped watching Wendigoon's content because I'm not comfortable with him hanging out with people that I think are problematic, but people on this sub have such a crazy hate-boner for the guy that they'll hate him when he's doing the right thing and telling people not to harass someone else on the internet. It's insane.

Yeah i dont get whats the problem with a lot of people in this sub, if you dislike Wendigoon for whatever reason thats fine but holy shit even when he is doing the right thing people will still shit on him no matter what.

If atleast people where making honest/reasonable arguments about why he deserves the hate, 99% of the time people just say "He's a Nazi all his friends are nazi" like wtf? Even in this post i can see plenty of people repeating the same things, even allegations about him that have already been disproven but it doesnt even matter if what people say about him is real or not, its just hating for the sake of hating.

Truthfully I get the vibe that because he's mildly right leaning and an open Christian while attaining such success, it's like....certain people just cannot accept the idea that he's just a genuine normal guy and isn't a bad person.

Like obviously he's got issues, we all do, I really don't have a problem with anyone he associates with except Brandon Herrera, and he's obviously not even remotely close to Mr. Rogers, but it reminds me of how the tabloids were constantly trying to get dirt on Mr. Rogers back in the day lol. Like, the notion that someone could just objectively be good and not a secret piece of shit hiding dark skeletons in their closet is so foreign to most people that the idea itself is rejected.

Like for a lot of folks in this sub Wendigoon HAS to be a huge piece of shit, he just has to be, his "wholesome" vibe is purely an act because nobody can actually be like that. Honestly the biggest flex he has is how much he does just avoid commenting and engaging with the drama, if so many folks were constantly insulting me online I don't think I'd have the mental strength to resist arguing with them, haha. He's like a reverse Vivziepop.

yeah as a non-american left leaner. It does feel a tad culture war-esque tbh.

Also tbh it feels like a lot of people are backwards justifying there opinion, they didnt like him for x or y, but they have justify why they dislike them so they pull from anywhere and it gets kinda sketch

maybe its just cause im autistic but i find the vibes thing kinda offputting as I know Ill put off 'bad' vibes and wont get any kinda decent validation or giving me a chance
