Top Comments of this video!! :3
charlie is talking about himself. this isn't about idubbbz, this is about charlie's ego. he sees a man taking responsibility for the kind of person he used to be, and it makes him uncomfortable, because he has the same skeletons in his closet, and he is trying to convince himself and everyone else that it's better not to address it because that would mean real, genuine reflection that his career is founded on being shitty online. piss baby behavior.

Cr1tikal: I, as a straight white dude, don't think screaming n-word f*ggot is hurtful.
Genius, bud. Genius. Why don't you ask a black or queer person who was in high school during the height of iDubbbz' popularity what they thought of it, and how they were treated by classmates who watched that kinda stuff?

I feel like there’s been so many bullshit apologies where the only purpose is damage control. It’s hard to watch an apology and not feel like it’s aimed at you and needs to be judged on the merits of how well it appeases your audience. Ian did the right thing by addressing the victims rather than his long time fans.

As a white, masc person, my gut reaction to iDubbbz' apology was similar to Charlie's. I thought it was performative to apologise for past fuckups when you've already demonstrated with your subsequent actions that you've bettered yourself and seen the error of your ways.
It wasn't until I read reactions to the video from POC saying that they were waiting for this acknowledgement and explicit apology that I realised I just couldn't understand what it was like to be legitimately hurt by those videos. I can't put myself in their shoes and know their experiences, so it's not for me to say what's performative and what's the right thing to do.

Who is Charlie to tell people when they should,or shouldn't apologize? I've apologized to people about things I did that weighed on my conscious countless times. Half the time they don't even remember it happening, but it's something I still feel the need to apologize for. Charlie is not the arbiter of apologies.

He really said: It didn't offend me, therefore it wasn't offensive
